Very little game footage. There is a short segment in the middle called "Intermission".
The "Intermission" segment was re-edited with different audio in 2012 to avoid a potential copyright issue after voluntarily removing it from the internet two months prior. The new intermission features the same footage, but is now set to ragtime music and looks like old film footage which is run too fast. The original segment ran at normal speed in full color with a song called, apropriately, "Intermission" by The Offspring. Both ways worked well, but I think I like the new version a bit better anyway.
