I grew up in the Gen X era, and while I didn’t see the very first video games, I definitely watched them change a lot as I was growing up. I have some really fond memories of playing classics like The Oregon Trail – seriously, dying of dysentery was a real fear! – and then getting older and discovering more mature stuff like Mortal Kombat. Those were the days!
