This document discusses the history and types of gaming. It begins with definitions of games and gaming genres like action, puzzle, and role-playing games. It then covers the origins of gaming in the 1940s and early electronic games in the 1950s and 1960s. The document also describes the origins and evolution of gaming consoles starting in the 1970s with the Magnavox Odyssey and continuing to modern consoles like the PlayStation, Xbox, and mobile gaming devices. Both advantages like improved problem solving skills and disadvantages like potential for addiction or isolation are noted.

11. ORIGIN OF GAMING
The earliest known interactive electronic game was
by Thomas T. Goldsmith Jr. and Estle Ray Mann on
a cathode ray tube in 1947. The game was a missile
simulator inspired by radar displays from World War
II. It used analog circuitry to control the CRT beam
and position a dot on the screen.

12. TIC-TAC-TOE,MOUSE MAZE
. In 1957-1961, a collection of interactive graphical
programs were created at MIT.
. Mouse in the Maze allowed users to use a light pen to
place maze walls, dots that represented bits of cheese.
. Tic-Tac-Toe used the light pen as well to play a simple
game of noughts and crosses against the computer.

13. GAMING CONSOLE
. A Video Game Console is an interactive
entertainment computer or customized computer
system that produces a video display signal which can
be used with a display device
(a television, monitor, etc.) to display a videogame.

14. INSIDE GAME SYSTEMS
. USER CONTROL INTERFACE
>Allows the player to interact with the video game
>Without it, a video game would be a passive medium,
like cable TV
• CPU
>Reads The Input,Processes It,And
Carries Out The Instructions
>Most Important Component Of The
Gaming Console

15. . RAM
>Provides Temporary Storage Of Games As They're Being
Played.
> Without RAM, even the fastest CPU could not provide
the necessary speed for an interactive gaming
experience .
.SOFTWARE KERNEL
>The Console's operating system.
>Provides the interface between the various pieces of
hardware.

16. . GRAPHIC PROCESSORS
>Provides Specialized Mapping, Texturing And Geometric
Functions
>Controls Video Output

17. ORIGIN OF GAMING CONSOLES
. Magnavox released the first home video game
console which could be connected to a TV set—
the Magnavox Odyssey, invented by Ralph H.
Baer.
. The Odyssey uses a type of removable printed
circuit board card that inserts into a slot similar to
a ROM cartridge slot.
. Was Powered By Batteries
. Moderately Successful

18. . The Atari 2600 is a video game console released in
October 1977 by Atari, Inc.
. The CPU was the MOS Technology 6507, running at
1.19 MHz
. Had A 128 Byte RAM
. Wildly Successful
. ―The Console The Entire
Industry Is Built On‖
ATARI 2600
