Lights, camera... action!
Streetplay videos now on YouTube!
The Internet finally caught up to our web Cineplex concept: be sure you visit our YouTube Channel where you'll see not only our videos, but also the best we've found on YouTube that celebrate the street playing culture. |
Welcome to the Cineplex, where we show you the games in motion. If you're
stuck in modem-land and your download speed is slower than a sumo wrestler
doing a 100-yard dash, just go outside, play some stickball, and it'll be done
by the time you get back.
You'll need QuickTime to play these movies;
it's
available for Windows and Macintosh for free from Apple Computer.
