Matthew BaileyPublished 6 years ago in GamersIs This What The Future Holds For Gaming Consoles?
If you've been around for more than 10 years, the evolution of the game console isn't anything new. We're so accustomed to it that it's just another part of life and we realize that our once prized possession of a console will inevitably become obsolete. It's a sad truth, but one that we all know too well, yet that doesn't stop us from purchasing the latest and greatest consoles. I can say that over the years I've owned quite a few of the, at the time, latest consoles and I've never been 'brand-locked' like some players. I've owned systems from Nintendo, Microsoft, Sega and Sony, I even did a flashback in my mid-teens when I found an Atari for sale from an old lady who was getting rid of "all her deatbeat son's shit", her words NOT mine.

Nintendo's GameCube has historically been one of the most nostalgia-inducing consoles over the last several generations of gaming consoles.

The gaming world is a dog-eat-dog arena where only the strong survive. That might seem a little harsh, considering the fact that for the most part we have several viable consoles on the market right now and that doesn't look to change any time soon. Yet, that wasn't always the case; there was a time, several as a matter of fact, when it seemed as though you might find a studio executive suddenly vanished without a trace and everyone pointing in every possible direction.
Matthew BaileyPublished 6 years ago in GamersThe Evolution Of Console Gaming: 50 Years In The Making
Console gaming has never been an industry to stay stagnant over the nearly 50 years that television gaming has been available. Console gaming, as it's commonly called, has been going through a process of trial, change and evolution, both in content and hardware.

Violence in Video Games
I wasn't always into video games when I was a youngster, but when I got older, as I started playing them for the first time, then I saw how addicting it could be, even frustrating as well.

Every time I get stuck or lose on a level, I would go from throwing the game controller at the TV or hitting myself with the controller, which ended up hurting me a lot.

Jay VergaraPublished 6 years ago in GamersBenefits of Computer Games
Computer games, console games, and internet-hosted games can all have benefits for their users — a statement some might not believe, but let me explain for the doubters. Firstly, I am a middle-aged man who has only recently had access to his first decent console for games playing and only played Facebook-hosted games on the computer. I have, in my time, played numerous arcade-based games, so I know the genesis of many of the more popular console games. Some have been recreated from arcade-based systems or have been developed from similar games.
