    My grandma played a lot of Zork through the '80s, and taught me to play it in the '90s.

    I imagine from her point of view arcade games got gradually more computerized.

      I’m 51 and remember playing Asteroids in the arcade. The state of video games today literally blows my mind, I have a hard time processing what’s going on!

        I’m close to 50 and have never stopped playing them since Pac-Man in 1983. The big budget ones have gotten too bloated for their own good, though!
