Video games have gone through many iterations over the years. From the early days where two lines went up and down on a screen, hitting a digitized ball back and forth to now seeing lifelike characters in movie-style productions.
No genre has seen the effects of video games on its day-to-day culture more than sports. The earliest known video game, Tennis for Two, which was released in 1958, was a simple tennis game that had users select the angle of the racket and press a button that would then return it to the other player.
From the 1950s to the early ‘80s, video games weren't played (for the most part) in individual homes, but in large arcades similar to what you see at places like Chuck E.
