this is the history of computer games from the 1990's to present day.
our journey begins with the Philips CDI of 1991 this was famous for having the most forgettable storage device... the dreaded laser disc the size of an EP and no able to withstand punishment it was useless in modern day society where the advancements of technology grew so rapidly that new and fresh idea was made every year. any way I digress the year of 1992 saw ; the SNES, Bandai super vision, Gameboy,
SEGA Genesis and the Atari lynx all names that we had in the corner of the living room or on the carpet this shows how domestic and small some of these consoles are and will become.
in 1993 the Atari Jaguar raised its head even though still on cartridges this system was still up to date and could compete with likes of the SNES and the Genesis, shame no-one bought it.
in 1994 the world was (slightly rocked by the arrival of the original PlayStation a console that along with another famous counter part helped make the gaming industry so successful. in the year of 1996 the counterpart to the PlayStation showed its self its the Nintendo 64 that came with....wait for it.... RESIDENT EVIL ill let you nerd out for a minute, okay done then lets continue a year after we saw one of the first FPS come onto the market this was Golden eye this showed the world how FPS were supposed to be done; fast, edgy and on LAN.
and this last paragraph will contain some consoles that you wont have to have Wikipedia open on a separate tab on the turn of the millennium we saw well revelation with the release of the PS2 in 2000 and the XBOX in 2001 also in 2000 we saw real online multiplier be rolled out in MMO's and on consoles we saw HAlO one of if not the most successful FPS franchise of all time we saw the father of what will become the Highest grossing game of all time as well as the most expensive to make; GTA evolution this was all done in 1 year which i find unreal i mean by this rate we will actually be IN a game by no sooner than 2050 which leads me on to my nest topic,
