The document discusses different types of gaming platforms through history. It describes arcades, which were popular in the 1970s-1980s where people would insert coins to play large coin-operated games. It then discusses older home consoles from the 1980s that only required electricity and game cartridges, offering affordable at-home play without coins. Finally, it mentions modern consoles from the 2000s like the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and Wii that connect to the internet and allow online play in addition to games.
In this blog post, MAAC Kolkata is going to discuss the remarkable revolution of use of animation in Video Games in the gaming industry.
MAAC Kolkata has taken this initiative to write on it so as to educate the beginners how gaming evolved and VIDEO GAMES from the primordial times.
The first computer games go back to the 50s when a nought and crosses game was created using an EDSAC computer. An effort at MIT ten years later led to a the multiplayer Spacewar game developed in a PDP-1. Even though these games were primitive, a game industry was born with the first games available in special locations – arcades. Today’s games are produced with modest Hollywood budgets and some are selling more than box-office hits.
Games are powerful. People can spend a lot of time playing games. Games are also great motivators. People do things that don´t even like, if they feel like they are playing game. Gamififcation is the use of game mechanics to motivate people to do stuff they generally would not do.

1. Business Models
Business models are the ways in which companies make income
Arcade
Games which were made in the 70 – late 80’s that are operated by inserting a coin, these
machines are a lot larger than the consoles that are used today. In the 90’s Japan had a
national coin shortage due to people playing the hit game at the time Space invaders.
The 1st Arcade game to be created was the Computer Space which was very complex to
understand but addictive once you understood how to play it.
An example of the arcade games that are still in use today are the time crisis first person
simulator, house of the dead and Terminator salvation.
Box Ship, Done
These Consoles originate in the 80’s and are still liked by most people who have had one in
the past or just like playing the origin of the games they enjoy in the present day. These
consoles only required the use of electric and a little extra money depending on whether
you wanted a new game to play
At the time these consoles were the next big thing because before they were released
people had to pay handfuls of coins per hour to play the game they enjoyed, so when these
consoles were created people were excited about the idea that they could play for no extra
cost the games they enjoyed without no interruptions or fees.
Observe Measure and Modify
This Consoles Originate In 00’s and are still used today and everyday get better and better. These consoles can
be used for home use and you can connect to the internet and chat with your friends while playing you
favourite games.
An example of these consoles is the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and the Nintendo Wii.
