24 Signs Of How Far Video Games Have Come. Enough To Make You Feel Old.

Kotaku - We've already looked at the signs that show how video games have matured in the last year.

Pulling from the ESA's 2012 statistics on video gaming, BuzzFeed has put together a list of 24 signs that video games have grown up in a much more simplistic way: namely, that they're damn old now and maybe so are you.

I remember playing Sonic 3 all the time on my Genesis. My buddy would even bring his Sonic and Knuckles where you could put my Sonic 3 cartridge in the top of it and play as Knuckles.

EKWB reportedly plagued with financial disarray many gaming pc's left without parts

EK Cooling allegedly has slipped itself into a hot soup of seemingly endless financial woes, where it has not paid its staff, suppliers, and contractors for many months as the company is facing liquidity problems and a surplus of inventory left unsold, stuck in the warehouse for a more extended period. Gamers Nexus investigated these claims made by former and current personnel, where he found trails of unpaid bills lasting as long as three to four months and unpaid raises that accumulated for almost a year.

Steve narrated the series of events in detail, stating that the company was reportedly irresponsible and negligent regarding payment. Consequently, partners and employees are forced to share the burden of alleged mismanagement. It all begins with its extensive range of products, leading to a surplus of goods.
