Beside documenting pretty much ignorance from people who publishHow many people watch silent movies from the 1910s and 1920s? Or even the run of the mill Black and White talkies?
articles, this also shows that there still is no public appreciation for
the roots of computer gaming, not even among those who like to play
games. Old movies are considered classics and are watched, old games are

I would imagine that the early games are similar to silent movies for most people. Computer games as an entertainment medium is still very young. Give it a couple of more decades. :)
