Manage episode 356001254 series 2986757
There is a pipeline from video games to the US military and it goes forward and backward and side to side, just like the buttons on your Gameboy Advanced. In this first installment, we look at the history of video game development and learn that when there was only one set of footprints in the sand, that was when the eternal war machine was carrying you, dear gamer. We come very close to accusing Activision of doing 9/11, but we show some restraint.
note: our website is going through a redesign ! soon you will find all our citations and a bunch of other mind expanding content there.
Works Cited and Further Reading:
