Board 8 > Do You Think Video Game Is An Antiquated Term?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Or does it accurately describe the current state of gaming? Or has it (long since) become ubiquitous with any kind of game that you might play on a screen?

Because games sure have changed since the days of playing with a paddle controller.

"Video is the technology of electronically capturing, recording, processing, storing, transmitting, and reconstructing a sequence of still images representing scenes in motion."

"A game is structured playing, usually undertaken for enjoyment and sometimes used as an educational tool. Games are distinct from work, which is usually carried out for remuneration, and from art, which is more often an expression of aesthetic or ideological elements."


Which of these changed?
