The Irate Gamer:
For over 35 years, video games have played a vital role throughout our history, from Pac-Man to Mario to Sonic the Hedgehog. The industry has managed to produce a legacy that runs deep into our culture. As you'll see in this series, the journey from point A to point B is not as clear-cut as one would expect.

But in order to tell this interesting saga, we must go back and start at the beginning.
