Posted by Hemos on from the look-into-the-past dept.

Mandi Walls writes "Wired is running an article about an exhibit on the history of video games at Barbican in London. It's supposed to hit the US next year. They start at Space War! from 1962 and move forward from there."

    The exhibition and accompanying book, Game On ($28, from Laurence King), deconstruct characters (like Lara Croft) along gender and age lines and examine their relationships with players.
    Oh so it's a pr0n exhibit.

    The only real video game is pong. The rest are just updates.
