- About 800 years later James Clerk Maxwell invented electricity. Thomas Edison used this new innovation to come up with a means to make music play automatically while one was playing a video game. He called this an electrovideogrammophoneplaything, but modern day gamers are more familiar with the term "video game music". The first use of this new "video game music" was in Pong, but the quality was poor so many players confused the sound effects with the music, which was admittedly rather minimalist. (This would Edison's sole musical composition.)

| - About 800 years later James Clerk Maxwell invented electricity. Thomas Edison used this new innovation to come up with a means to make music play automatically while one was playing a video game. He called this an electrovideogrammophoneplaything, but modern day gamers are more familiar with the term "video game music". The first use of this new "video game music" was in Pong, but the quality was poor so many players confused the sound effects with the music, which was admittedly rather minimalist. (This would Edison's sole musical composition.) As a response to this, video game manufacturers began having professional musicians compose the music. Unfortunately, this was when people stopped caring about video game music. This changed in the mid to late 1990s, when the quality of video games began to rival movies. As a result, video game popularity was increasing, and the industry took advantage of this fact by appealing to the movie-watching desires the masses had. As a result, games became more like movies. Annoying cut scenes (ironicly included in the final product) became prevalent. Video game music developed a Hollywood tone, and because this music was recorded on the game discs like music on cds, people were now required to play in sync to the music. People liked this because they didn't have to make decisions. There are currently a vocal few who protest the dullification of video games, but nobody cares about them, except maybe this guy.
