@ Mrs Beanbag - Thanks for the link. TV shows are blind to gamers and geeks. So true that 90's games were about score and modern games are about pure survival. There is no reward in killing unlimited zombies just to continue on and kill more endless zombies. If a TV show was made like gamesmaster today it would be more than likely just pure killing killing killing and not so much fun. That is unless they made a show purely about driving games or platformers and puzzlers etc, of which there are only a few compared to FPS and open-world games.

Games are not just for kids. The first game was played with white and black pebbles and a flat rock with a white and black face; which the player would throw to gain or lose a go. This was played like 3,000 years ago in caves, by anyone of any age.
