A video game is an electronic game that involves human interaction with a user interface to generate visual feedback on a video device. The word video in video game traditionally referred to a cathode ray tube(CRT) display device, but it now implies any type of display device that can produce two or three dimensional images. The electronic system used to play video games are known as platform. These platform range from large mainframe computers to small handheld devices. Video games have gone on to become an art form and industry. Video games typically use additional means of providing interactivity and information to the player. Audio is almost universal, suing sound reproduction devices, such as speakers and headphones. Other feedback may come via haptic pheripherals, such as vibration or force feedback, with vibration sometimes used to simulate force feedback.
Early games used interactive electronic devices with various display formats. the earliest example is from 1947- a "Cathode ray tube Amusement device" was filed for a patent on 25 January 1947, by Thomas T. goldsmith Jr. and Estle Ray Mann, and issued on 14 December 1948, as U.S Patent 2455992.
Inspired by radar display tech, it consisted of an analog device that allowed a user to control a vector- drawn dot on the screen to simulate a missile being fired at targets, which were drawnings fixed to the screen.
