Video games have been transformed so much thought the years. Starting from pong in the 70’s to modern day video games. As society advances so do video games and their importance in modern culture. The more complicated we make video games the more we see there is controversy around it, but that’s not the main transformation this paper will be focusing on. The transformation I see the most would be between the Nintendo 64 to the PlayStation 4 consoles. The Nintendo 64 was a stepping stone for modern day gaming such as the PlayStation 4. The Nintendo 64 controller was very unique at the time. The controller itself was shaped like an M with the middle part of the M being longer than the other two parts. The controller had a 4 foot wire attached to it along with a memory card holder on the controller in case people wanted to make their games saves there. Underneath the controller was the z button with was hidden so during shooting games the other players couldn’t see when someone was going to shoot them. Along with a directional pad the controller included something known as the C buttons. These buttons are 4 individual buttons that have the 4 directions (up, down, left, right) and are yellow. These buttons were used during the early life of the system, however towards later years it was discovered that the buttons were very awkward to press with the controllers shape, so they stopped being useable in later games. The two primary buttons were the A and the B button, they were the…

important. To the Greasers, loyalty is a principle to a successful gang; without loyalty, the gang isn’t a gang anymore. In the Outsiders, they had experienced how things would be if they lost loyalty for each other, for example, when Ponyboy didn’t believe that Darry really loved him. The Greasers showed loyalty to one another, by defending and sticking up for each other, and caring for one another. Loyalty represented the Greasers’ gang; it held the gang together, and the gang members looked…

Statement of Purpose It all began when I was thirteen with a new Desktop Computer at home, which was bought to assist my father for his business. My father was the one who introduced me to a computer system at his study place that first sparked my interest. I can always remember the feeling of wanting to know just how computers worked, why they worked and what else they could do. I still remember our first computer configuration – IntelPentium4, 256 MB RAM and 40 GB Hard Disk. Back in the days,…

that is never acceptable to order is Raisinets. This is a movie theater, not a dentist 's office; there is no reason to eat dried grapes while watching Ryan Gosling take off his shirt. The alternative to purchasing candy at the theater is to illegally smuggle it. This is a skill which must be carefully honed over a lifetime of movie-going. Beginners are advised to practice their smuggling techniques during the winter, when large coats and awkward bulges arouse less suspicion. With a little…

Manisha Shrestha Mrs. Brooke Ciolino ENGL 1213 September 10, 2013 COMPUTER AND ITS GENERATION It is hard to believe that this modern technology has influenced human life and they all are dependent on this from their day to night. There was a time when there were no computers and people used to work by themselves. In past days, people used paper and pencils to do their work but now the world has changed and paper and pencil has been replaced by Microsoft word. This change happened from this new…

Pp 337-8). Those steps were used in the 1600s-1700s. More than 200 years later, those inventions became the basis for computers and for storage of information (Fuller, R Buckminster, P. 238). In the 1900s computers were the electronics which controlled the use of electricity, entirely mechanical (Collier, C. Lincoln, J. Pp. 18-19). That early computer could perform a series of operation or instruction, called a program. These inventions are traced back to the 1800s to a French inventor (Fuller…

The stick I randomly grabbed had a slight curve to it. I thought I could make it into a bow or something later. I handed Christianne another stick, just in case she wanted one. The first quarter of the trail wasn 't that bad as long as I walked at a slow pace. By the time I made it up halfway, however, my legs were screaming at me in protest. I tripped on a few rocks because of my sluggish pace. Luckily, I caught myself with the stick I was carrying. After the long and grueling hike back up, I…

I have always liked computers since I got my first one. I am even using a computer to write this paper. There have recently been many advancements in computers in recent years. There have been some very important people and new applications made possible by these people. Computers have been made smaller, faster, lighter, and stronger and have made things in the medical field, military field, and for normal use possible that were not possible a few years ago. We have made more advances in…

The reason being that it’s pretty much an instinct you have or you don’t when it comes to saving a ball. What I can give you is a breakdown of shots you’ll encounter. There exactly seven quadrants the attack players are trained to shoot at: stick-side high, stick-side hip, stick-side low, off-stick high, off-stick hip, off-stick low, and five hole. Stick-side refers to your dominant hand’s side, so if you’re a right-handed person the stick-side refers to the right and the off-stick side refers…
