Script for Gaming History

70s:
Pong is a table tennis–themed twitch arcade sports video game, featuring simple two-
dimensional graphics. It was released in November on the 29th 1972 by the American game
manufacturer Atari, one of the earliest video games, Pong became wildly popular and
helped launch the video game industry. The Inspiration of this game was that Bushnell
played a version on a PDP-1 computer in 1964 while attending college. However, Alcorn has
claimed it was in direct response to Bushnell's viewing of the Magnavox Odyssey's Tennis
game. 
The player controls an in-game paddle by moving it vertically across the left or right
side of the screen. They can compete against another player controlling a second
paddle on the opposing side. Players use the paddles to hit a ball back and forth.
The game was available on the Magnavox Odyssey, known as the first console video
game system!

80s:
Alex Kidd in the Enchanted Castle is a side-scrolling platform game developed and published
by Sega for the Genesis.  The origin of Alex the Kidd was Alex Kidd in Miracle World,
1986! It was released in February on the 10th 1989 by Sega. The inspiration of Alex the Kidd
was that the most games in the Alex Kidd series differ dramatically from one another, the
sole exception being Miracle World and its direct sequel, Alex Kidd in the Enchanted Castle.
While most games in the series were still platform-based, the only elements that tied the
series together was the name and the title character.  
The player guides Alex through eleven stages by fighting and avoiding enemies and
obstacles. Alex can jump, kick, crawl or punch enemies, causing them to explode into gold
coins, called Baums. The game was available on the Sega Master System 1 and 2!

90s
Sonic the Hedgehog 2 is a 1992 platform games developed by Sega Technical Institute (STI)
for the Sega Genesis. It follows Sonic as he attempts to stop Doctor Robotnik from stealing
the Chaos Emeralds to power his space station. Like the first Sonic the Hedgehog (1991). 
The Origin of Sonic the Hedgehog was in 1991 Sonic the Hedgehog! It was released in
September on the 29th 1992 the director was Masaharu Yoshii.
The game was available on the Sega Genesis Console and the Classic Mini Console!
Sonic 2 was a major factor in keeping Sega competitive during the console wars of the
fourth generation of video game consoles in the early 1990s, and GameSpot described it as
the game that solidified Sonic as a major franchise. It boosted Genesis sales enough to
nearly equalize Sega with Nintendo and cemented Sonic as a video game mascot on par
with Nintendo's Mario.

Minecraft: Everyone knows what Minecraft is! It was released on the 18th of November
2011 Minecraft is an extremely popular game. Every child loves that game but also
adults. The game Minecraft is a 3D Sandbox
game that has no required goals to accomplish, allowing players a large amount of
freedom in choosing how to play the game. However, there is an achievement system,
known as "advancements ", in the Java Edition and Bedrock Edition of the game,
’trophies’’ on the PlayStation ports, and simply "achievements" on the Xbox ports. The
core gameplay revolves around picking up and placing these objects. These blocks are
arranged in a 3D grid, while players can move freely around the world. Players can
"mine" blocks and then place them elsewhere, enabling them to build things. Comparing
Minecraft back in the year 2012 and now adays, the game has changed a lot but only that
there are new mobs, new blocks, and new areas.
