Think you know gaming? It's time to school your brain...

#56 The first name for Electronic Arts was actually Amazin' Software, but company founder Trip Hawkins wanted the title to reflect software as an art form, so it was subsequently changed to Electronic Arts.

#57 Text adventure RPG, Eamon, was released for Apple II in 1980 and is thought to be the first game specifically designed with 'expansion packs' in mind. The non-commercial game was provided with the 'Eamon Dungeon Designer' disk that allowed its players to construct their own adventures, with a 'Main Hall' disk allowing users to transfer character attributes and stats between adventures.

#58 The 1996 Phillips CD-i version of popular shagging manual, The Joy of Sex, was the first game to receive the ESRB's Adults Only rating.

#59 Released in 1997, Star Fox 64 was the first game to support N64's Rumble Pak.

#60 Over the years gaming has, for many vociferous finger-pointers, become one of society's bad guys. The first game to produce an explosion of outrage was Exidy's 1976 auto vehicular run-'em-down, Death Race, which tasked players with knocking over 'gremlins'. As harmless as this pursuit sounds today, at the time the 'controversial' gameplay caused a massive stink and Death Race received widespread condemnation from various self-appointed moral guardians.

#61 Nintendo has created some of gaming's best loved characters over the years, but its first was the ball catching, sausage tossing Mr Game & Watch.

#62 Atari's 1976 arcade racer, Night Driver, was the earliest example of a first-person racing game. Admittedly the car was a plastic insert placed behind the screen, but still, it was pretty revolutionary in its day.

#63 The first big Hollywood production to use video games as a major plot influence was Tron in 1982. It was actually rather good and is still highly watchable today.
