The First Video Game

, , , ...

The earliest computer games were played on supercomputers. Of course,these were found only in large universities or the laboratories of large corporations or government agencies, such as, the US Department of Defence. Thus, till about mid 1970s, games were restricted from being available to the common populace.

A lot of games claim to be the first game, and considering the number of formats and genres that exist today, this isn't surprising. If you ask a lay person to name the first PC or video game,the qualifying factor being that there must be some computing involved in the game, one of the most common answers you'd probably get is the PacMAN. This pill-chomping circle was a craze, probably the single largest gaming icon for almost a decade, but for those who came in late, here's a bit of news flash, PacMan was released in 1980 by Midway games, almost a decade after the first console game made its debut and a good 30 years after the first ever computer game entertained the researchers at the Cambridge University.

A S Douglas was the name of the scientist and the game was OXO. He you think you haven't heard of it, think again- we call it tic-tac-toe! Douglas developed a graphical version of this game way back in 1952, making it the first ever video game. Developed at the Cambridge University to demonstrate a thesis on human-computer interaction, OXO was played is the first known graphical game to have been played on a computer.

Remember PacMan? There was a time when it was the hottest game around, and it got better when colour screens became the norm. There were actually color dots that had to be gobbled! That was 1988.

Today, games have grown from being a mere pastime. They are a passion. What's more, they constitute an industry that commands respect and is often seen in awe for what it has achieved.

Would you touch a game today that doesn't have the best available graphics, sound and gameplay? Shouldn't you also be able to play it online with your buddies? What about the improvements? The publisher must release mods (with or without hot coffee!) periodically to keep the enthusiasts going... Yes, gaming has become more complicated that the simple PacMan.

Thankfully, there's something for everyone- sports games, arcade games, FPSes, MMORPGs, online games and flash games that are easy to play. If you don't understand some of the abbreviations that I've mentioned, then you are at the right spot. Just look out for the accompanying posts.

This series of blog posts aim at being a guide to all people about all things gaming- for those who have a passion for games, those who just want to have some fun, or just want to increase their general knowledge. So what are you waiting for? Lets frag!
