The History of Video Games: Part 1 - The Rise of the Atari 2600.
Ever heard of the "Oregon Trail generation?" Probably not, and neither had I until recently, but apparently I am a member of it and never knew it. Members of this generation were born in the late 70s and early 80s and bridge the gap between the last members of Generation X and the first of the millennials. The generation gets its name from the Oregon Trail computer game, a game many of us played on our school’s Apple II computers. Dying of digital dysentery was much more fun than *gasp* “going outside to play.”
