Hwk. #1

after doing the readings, the histroy of gaming was interesting and i found out alot of new facts. A lot i didn't know becasue it wasn't in my era and other game consoles i recgonized. the atari, nintendo and of course the xbox and Ps2&3. I find it interesting how technolgy has come a long way through the years. the microvision that was created in the 60s and 70s was the first boost to create more handhelds and home computers, which the home computers were well known in the 70s and 80s( more in the 80s).the second article talked about hackers and how they would change the title around and make their own video game, whcih was a problem and a struggle for the industry. it also talked about how MUD ( Multi. user dungeons), based off dungeons and dragons. hacking would attract more users and it became popular. they then talked about how hacking should be available to the users becasue they would make a much better and useful game to their liking.
