I love video games, I play them during my free time, do you know if they have been around for a long time?

Well not a super long time but video games goes as far back as the early 1950's when academic computer scientists designed simple games and simulations in a research.

Oh, so they first started out more for research. Was there any particular person who really developed them or started them?

Well not really since video games are a form of entertainment, so that's pretty broad. But video games really became mainstream around the 80's when the game "Spacewars" was introduced.

I have never played that game, it sounds interesting what was it about, was it on the nintendo?

I think it was on the early CRT computers. Since 1980's video games have become a part of popular culture for sure.

I have never heard of a CRT computer, what exactly is that?
