  • You may not know this, but we here at Team TripleJump really like video games. It’s true! We like to play them, critique them, and we're even making our very own game. What we want to do more of, however, is look at the history of video games. In this video, we’ll be embarking on a journey of discovery to find out exactly where video games came from, how the technology came to be and how it has evolved over the years, what were the major breakthroughs, and where exactly our favourite pastime is headed in the future. This is THE COMPLETE HISTORY OF GAMING.

    I was down visiting my sister last week. And the brother in law had an actual Atari 2600 sitting under the TV. And he popped Pacman on for a few minutes to demonstrate it.
    I still play many many older games. I pointed out to him that during the month of July I've definitely played arcade Pacman, Mrs. Pacman and Pacman Jr on emulator. (because we were discussing the differing level layouts of the Pacman games.)
    Fantastic video guys. Enjoying it immensely.

    For the "entire" history video there are a lot of important events missing. Like:
    Late 70's-Early 80's: The rise of arcade gaming.
    1984-1992: 7800, Lynx & the decline of Atari.
    Mid 80's: The rise of home computers market.
    Early-Late 90's: Fighting games boom.
    1993-1996: Jaguar & the fall of Atari.
    1995: Sega Saturn's botched marketing & release in USA.
    Late 90's-Early 00's: The decline & fall of arcade gaming.
    2000. John Romero's Daikatana is released. The game ruins the reputation & career of John Romero, 1 of the biggest gaming superstars of the 90's.
    Early-late 00's: Xtreme sports games boom.
    2007: Ubisoft announces Beyond Good & Evil 2. As of 2024, the game is still not released, making it the title with longest development time (17+ years), suppressing previous record holder: Duke Nukem: Forever (15 years).
    2016: Gamergate.
    2018: GTAV suppresses 100 mil. copies sold.
    2019-Present: DEI/ESG in AAA gaming.
    2020: PS2 suppresses 155 mil. units sold & becomes best selling video game console of all time.

    I thank video games for helping me deal with people around me. I am a woman that is diagnosed with psychopathy. Basically I don't show empathy towards other people and I can be quite nasty sometimes without realizing it. However my Doctor at the time (a big thank you to Dr Rasheed) Introduced me to video games, and it stopped me attacking other people. I would put all my negative energy into killing baddies in games instead of hurting others. So again thank you Dr Rasheed & Nintendo.

    It’s truly amazing how the Industry has evolved over the years. Not only that, but for gamers across the globe to be able to interact with others.
    I remember when my mum bought me my first ever PlayStation. I was thrilled and couldn’t wait to play the games that came included into the bundle. I had always been intrigued by games, but it was through my dear mother I became a gamer. But of course, there had to be a downside!
    I was constantly laughed at not just by other boys because I played video games, but even my own father said that, “Gaming is for boys, not stupid girls like you!”
    The general sexism towards female gamers was off putting to most, but I refused to give in. Years later I’m proud to say that that more and more female gamers are now starting to rise, and I for one will always be gamer for all my days!

    Lots of people in the comments seem upset they didn’t talk about home computers like the Commodore 64 and breezed past would-be Atari 2600 competitors like the Intellivision, and I have to ask: What did you expect from a 90-minute overview of 50-plus years of history? If they were gonna cover every aspect of interactive digital media’s history, 90 minutes wouldn’t be enough to get through the 1970s.

    Technically Atari buried all those cartridges for a tax write-off, not out of shame. US tax laws allow companies to write off unsellable merchandise, but for it to be considered “unsellable” it has to be rendered unusable. Those laws were intended for merchandise that gets ruined before it can be sold, but they’re written so that a company can basically take any unsold merchandise and destroy it or dump it in a landfill.

      The computer scene definitely deserved a mention, if only to say that it wasn't until the 90s that consoles took off at all in Europe, but I think the idea was to trace a line through history to where the industry is today. With all the respect to the microcomputers of the 80s, they kind of represent an evolutionary dead end when looking at games today.

    Ok, I have to comment again. What is the evidence that E.T. and Pac-Man precipitated the video game crash in the 80s? Everyone says this on RUclips but you have to support that claim. There have been dozens of AAA flops that have not killed the industry so you need more to demonstrate the connection.
