Why a Gaming Page?

The truth is I have played a lot of videogames both as a kid and as an adult and I can tell you that I learnt far more economics from Simcity than I did from my My year 9 Accounting teacher.  I learnt more about history from Civilization and Call of Duty than from a text book.  Above all else I had a hell of a lot of fun playing endless hours of 4 player MarioKart and Goldeneye as a teenager as  my mind worked overtime trying to keep ahead of mates to outwit, out strategize and generally punish them at every opportunity.  Games are excellent learning tools and every kid knows this - see what you can learn about them.

The Complete History of 'Super Mario Bros'

| DateThursday, November 19, 2009 at 8:06PM

Everyone's favourite Italian Plumber has a proud history in the world of video games;  26 years worth of it in fact.  IGN has just released a comprehensive history of Mario and you can track his evolution and subsequent devolution if you take a look at his newest game which is great.  Anyhow I always have kids who try to put together presentations on video games and I would point them here for an example of how to do it right and in the mean time learn how Mario has changed the face of video games for over 2 decades.  Check it out here.
