We understand visual content better. Visual content is associated with cognitive and psychological mechanisms. Things enter through the eyes; the first image is what counts. We associate visual content with emotions. Our brain is ready to consume visual content.

We process visual content up to 60,000 times faster than text. That's why visual communication is more effective. Our brain is biologically prepared to process visual content. Almost 50% of our brain is involved in processing visual stimuli.

With Genially templates, you can include visual resources to leave your audience speechless. You can also highlight a specific phrase or piece of information that will be etched in your audience's memory and even embed external content that surprises: videos, photos, audios... Whatever you want!

Yet, one of the Odyssey’s 28 games was the inspiration for Atari’s Pong, the first arcade video game, which the company released in 1972. In 1975, Atari released a home version of Pong, which was as successful as its arcade counterpart.

Nintendo released its 16-bit Super NES console in North America, launching the first real “console war.”

The North American video game industry experienced a major “crash” due to a number of factors, including an oversaturated game console market, competition from computer gaming, and a surplus of over-hyped, low-quality games, such as the infamous E.T., an Atari game based on the eponymous movie and often considered the worst game ever created

The video game crush

Steve Russell at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology invented Spacewar!, a computer-based space combat video game for the PDP-1 (Programmed Data Processor-1). It was the first video game that could be played on multiple computer installations.

At the beginning of the millennium, the internet was still not powerful enough or in sufficiently widespread use to enable people to play against one another online. So gamers got together at LAN parties. Players brought their own computers and connected them up in a local network in order to play against one another into the early hours, or even all night long. Especially popular at these parties was the sometimes controversial game Counter-Strike (2000), in which gamers take on the role of terrorists or members of an anti-terror unit and use tactical manoeuvres to try to eliminate each other. But then, with the phenomenal increase in internet use, gaming also went online. For the first time games, such as World of Warcraft (2004), were played mainly on the internet.The decade produced numerous bestsellers, foremost among them being The Sims (2000), Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas (2004), Super Mario Galaxy (2007) and Minecraft (2010).

It was known as “The Brown Box.” Baer, who’s sometimes referred to as Father of Video Games, licensed his device to Magnavox, which sold the system to consumers as the Odyssey, the first video game home console, in 1972.

Video games entered a new dimension – literally, because the graphics became three-dimensional. These game worlds looked more realistic and offered more complex possibilities. In 1994, Sony launched the PlayStation. The game design studios churned out more innovative ideas, with history often serving as inspiration for the gameplay: in Age of Empires (1997), gamers built entire civilisations, and in Command & Conquer (1995) they waged war. In Tomb Raider (1996) they searched for historical artefacts alongside Lara Croft; in Monkey Island (1990), it waspirate’s treasure they were after. But in the 1990s the games industry also lost its innocence because, inaddition to the gameplay action, violence also increasingly became a theme. Starting with Wolfenstein 3D (1992), ‘first-person shooters’ emerged.
