Videogames are frequently described as a young medium, but they’ve been through a nigh-unfathomable number of changes in the 49 or so years since SpaceWar! first lit up MIT’s campus. In that time, a lot of the terms and points of reference we use to describe games have come, gone or mutated into something wholly unlike what they originally meant. The lexicon has gotten so complicated, in fact, that it’s frequently possible to roughly guess a gamer’s age just by the references they use.
