Over the last twenty or so years, gaming has gone through so many reinventions and evolutions that I often wonder what’d happen if someone from the eighties could just have a glimpse at the standard it’s gotten to these days; would they even survive the experience, or would the jump be so huge that it actually set their brain on fire?

Keep them at least enough that they are still earning quite the bit of proffit.
