Sounds like some 70's sci-fi series. In those years since old Jebus was born we have came some way...
Gone are the days of living in caves, grunting at one another and thinking the world was flat. Now well people have went to the moon, still grunt at each other and deserve to live in caves.
In the last 50 years or so, it’s been the big technology boom... I'm sure you all know this.
Did you know however, during the Dark Ages. You know the time where people built castles, lived in mud, plagues and err no lights. Well during this time science and development of technology was seen as witchcraft and they burned or drowned those who had a brain in their head. This set the world 600 years back with technology.
So really it could be a possibility we could have been living in the technology year of 2602.
So if we now presume we live in that year, our level of technology would have been the equivalent of 1402.
So this could have affected the way the world is now (including gaming, yay I found a link).
World War 2 would have lasted from 1339-1345.
Shakespeare could have had a PC to write his plays on.
The moon landing would have taken place in 1369
The X-Box and Gamecube would have been released in 1402.
Makes you think eh… of course most of that may be wrong as the Dark Ages were not long off that and you get the picture.
Do you think Che Guevara and Fidel Castro could be bothered starting the revolution in Cuba if they had a Playstation 356? Maybe Hitler decided to stay in and play Championship Manager than invade Poland. Who knows what could have happened.
So where would we be now with gaming? What do you see the world like in 2602? Maybe it is nothing, blown up by weapons millions of times powerful than a nuke. Maybe you see world peace. Maybe gaming was made illegal; maybe the world has turned into a gaming paradise.
I hope all you gaming monkeys are cursing at the Dark Ages, just think of what you lot could be up to (aye aye). In rooms full of ultimate gaming, no control pads, all thoughts. Maybe not games, different lives and things. Flying in real space, instead we’re talking on a primitive forum, which would have been abolished in 1420 for more advanced communication. In 600 years your children’s children etc will look back and laugh at you all arguing over such petty pieces of entertainment.

actually it was the moon
