I myself have found that the increase in gaming technology over the past few years has been incrediable.
Lets take a look at the past, there was once a game called 'Pong' which amazed millions, then there was Space Invaders which millions were adicted to in pubs and arcades around the world. Now to me these games in the time we are in now are very poor and would not even think of playing a game of it.
Although it seems that these games along with the old machines that ran them or in great demand and a lot (A LOT) of money is being spend to get them. Now this may surprise a few of you as well as myself but it seems people who were around my age (15) when they were around are desperate to own them once again as it holds a special place in their heart.
The only problem is there are very few around these days such as Amiga which went Bankrupt a while back (I think). I think an amiga was sold for $2000 in America along with games a while back. So hold on to your old Sega Mega Drives and Sonic games because they may be worth a small fortune in the near future, unless it is yourselfs who will be playing them in the future.

I played the PSX version of PONG on a demo and found it quite good.
The graphics were much better and the gameplay was pretty decent. i wish some game developer would make a SNAKES game for the PS2!

Played it a lot...
The loadinvaders were the best though. Two games in one. Superb.

You wouldn't think of playing the original Space Invaders?
That game started it all. Space Invaders launched the arcades, it got gamers hooked, it CREATED the computer game. You gotta play it at least once to see what I mean. Go on, you have to. It's important for you education.
