Counter Strike Flash

A strange little side quest

Between one round of Counter Strike Flash and the next, this is worth knowing: Space Invaders arrived in 1978 and helped turn electronic games from an arcade curiosity into mainstream entertainment. The timeline takes another interesting turn: Spacewar! appeared on MIT's PDP-1 in 1962 and became one of the earliest influential computer games shared among programmers. The details change, but the appeal of learning a system and trying again is remarkably persistent.
