Computer science news on Phys.org
Pong ... the version on the Odyssey console.

And when you got bored with that, there was a green overlay you could stick to the TV screen with static electricity. Voila! Tennis!

Although almost no one has ever heard of it, conflict for nintendo
 
Anyone a fan of the star wars games?
 
no mention of Gran Turismo 1, 2 and 3?

I'll even go ahead and nominate 4, even though it isn't out yet. GT is basically the game that makes the ps2 most popular.
