Here I have put together the A-Z of gaming.
Everything from Atari to Xbox is in here. Not a litter is left out.
Enjoy!


A is for Atari
Atari was a very successful console, better known for it’s great pong games.

B is for Binatone
Binatone was yet another very successful pong dominated console.
It came with a few other cool games though.

C is for Commodore
The Commodore is a tape-based console, one of the chunky speccy’s main rivals.
The graphics were an eye-boggling breakthrough when it first came out.
The C64 topped the bunch!

D is for Dreamcast
The Dream cast was certainly an amazing console with amazing graphics and some great games to go with it. Sadly though it was short lived and to advanced for its time.
But we did get something from it though.
We got a glimpse of what lay in wait in the future!

E is for Earthworm Jim
What a moovelous experience, udder-satisfaction

F is for F-Zero-X
F-Zero X is a breathtaking sci-fi racer for the N64; it comes packed with explosive game play and burning graphics

G is for Game Cube
The Game Cube is one of the most powerful consoles on the planet.
The graphics are truly magnificent and as for the games, well I’m just speechless.

H is for Halo
Halo is one of the most if not THE most graphically impressive game of all time.
Released on Xbox it sent gamers scrambling to the shops in their thousands on launch date.
Wow what a game!

I is for ISS football
The ISS range is one of the lesser known footy titles but the games can still kick some superior but.

J is for Jetpack.
An old Spectrum game where you got into a rocket and blasted of into the atmosphere.
Doesn’t time fly by when your having fun?

K is for Koopa Troopa
Mario’s arch enemy!
You’d better get out of this guys way incase you get fried!

L is for LMA football Manager
LMA football Manager is probably one of the most successful footy management Sims around in this game you can “Win it like Wogan”

M is for Mario Kart64
Mario Kart64 is in my view the most successful N64 racer around.
With great graphics and some fantastic game play.
The Multi-Player mode topped the cake!

N is for Nintendo
Ahhh that 8 lettered word I love to hear.
Nintendo are one of the most successful console manufacturers/game developers around.
With the announcement that the Game Cube would be Nintendo’s last console we’ll be very sad indeed to hear Ninty go.
We salute thee!

O is for Oscilloscope
A bunch of boffins in a university created this one day when they were board
It was a game of tennis, the first ever video game ever made.
Thus video games had been born!


P is for Pong
A certain bearded guy created this little beauty.
It opened a new porthole into the world of gaming.
Hail to thee o bearded one.

Q is for Quake.
Quake is a game not for the squeamish.
It’s possibly the most graphic game I’ve ever seen.
Just whack this game into your Sony for a splattering good time!

R is for Rare Ware.
The most successful game developers of all time.
They are better known for top games like Conkers Bad Fur Day and Golden-eye
Although they didn’t make games very often when they did everyone knew about it!

S is for Sony
The most successful console manufacturer that ever dominated the games market.
Selling out completely of all PS2’s at launch they broke all records.
Crikey!

T is for Tony Hawks Skateboarder!
Wow what stunning games this title produced.
Flipping good stuff!

U is for Unreal Tournament
Unreal Tournament is a cool strategy/shoot’em up with unreal graphics and smashing game play.Now that’s unreal

V is for V Rally ‘99
V Rally ’99 is one of the best racers on the N64.
With great game play and not so great graphics it may not been one of the most visually impressive rally games on the humble N64 but it was good fun none-the-less.
Shame about the pop-up graphics though.

W is for Worms
Combine sheep and old ladies together for a blast of a good time!

X is for Xbox
The Xbox is the most powerful games console ever.
The graphics on this machine are just amazing.
Clocking in at speeds of over 700MHz I’m surprised that this beast of a machine doesn’t blow up!

Y is for Yoshi’s story
A cute little plat former starring Yoshi from well-known games such as Mario Kart and Mario Land. This game was aimed at kids me finks! Still, a cute game though!

Z if for Zelda
One of the most enchanting engaging games title ever.
The games kept Nintys across the land happy for years and years.
OOT put the icing on the cake
If only all games were as good, then the world would be a happier place. Sadly though there are but a few games like these, but times are a changing.

There we have it, The Complete A-Z of everything gaming!
I hope you enjoyed reading it!
