HALL OF DECADES..

2000
Games around the 1950s were mostly outdoor games or board games. Examples of outdoor games would be the basic games that kids now still play today for like hide and seek, hopscotch, scambble, monopoly and marbles. Other outdoor games that were popular among the youth too is British bull dog and wrestling. If you personally grew up in British you will have some experience playing this in school. I did have this experience too and it caused alot of children to run too fast and hurt themselves some schools too unsure If it happened in mine but the game was banned because of this. How children got away with still playing this was naming it something else. In this decade playing games was focused on quality time mainly I personally believe that games should be fun and be about spending time toegther and have fun with friends or family but I think over the years its become less about quality time.
Games in the 1980s were just now developing from board games to video games originally coming from aracde games like pacman, tetris, legend of zelda and super mario bros. Not all these games came from arcade games but all these you would probably recongise these games as you may have personally played them or played newer versions being released. As video games evolved and technology games wee adapted to be on some home console or hand held device on the go like a game boy. This is show in one of the images of a game boy to the right.
In the 2000s the gaming industry got bigger and better in the years having the interest of most interests and games getting popularity like Resident evil game series, Grand Theft Auto and Final Fantasy and Halo. They gained popularity because it was something new and refreshing for players to play with either an intreresting plot, good game design and new game mechanics introduced. An example of this was GTA (Grand Theft Auto) that rose to fame because of it being to new all players. Games developed more into home consoles this decade introducing the playstation, Xbox and the game cube and games becoming less 2D and more 3D which capulated players in a new immerse game reality with new game mechanics, puzzles and technology advancing in the years to help with this.
games in the recent years have more variety than before like fps games, gacha, choice based games and this is just a small selection of what there is now. Popular games in the recent years are games like genshin, fortnite, life is strange and elden rng. The games now have more new game mechanics compared to basic ones in older games and consoles like the ps5 being the most recent playstations. Upcoming games were games like five nights at freddy's that is still on going and Ghost of Tsushima being a popular recent game that game out too. Gacha games currently popular right now is Zenless Zone, Genshin impact, and the honkai game series since there are 3 different versions with some characters crossing over in each games. Explorng games too being popular like Uncharted a beloved game series created by Naughty dog.
