games

I am interested in the way that games have developed in the recent years. It is a major area of technological development.

It started with the simple board games played for decades but it slowly moved to the electronic front.

There are many claims for the first video game and will not delve into which is but I believe some of the earliest hand held video game came in tetris, an all time classic. Early computer games are found in space invader and pacman.

Though instead of the early history, I'll skip to more recent. Since then we have increased our limits for portable games, starting at a gameboy and moving to colour in the gameboy colour. Since then we have advanced to the nintendo DS and the 3DS, a 3D portable gaming system.

Consoles, which can be wired into a TV have always been popular. They have also had humble beginnings in the game cube, with which you used controllers. After many minor changes to this system, the eyetoy device was made for the playstation 2. It uses a camera and it was the first console where you didn't need controllers and you were the controller. It has since been altered into the widely popular wii, which uses a controller but your movement controls the controller instead of the buttons. Most recently the x-box kinnect was made and is the newest device of this sort.
