Gaymers and gnerds of the world unite! The Oregon Museum of Science
and Industry will have fans jumping for joystick with Game O n 2.0, what’s
being billed as the world’s biggest video game celebration—and the exhibi
tion’s U.S. premiere.
A promised 125 playable games (including pinball!) are only the begin
ning. Attendees are invited to immerse themselves in a hands-on history of
video game culture, from the very first commercial coin-operated machine
to the latest in virtual reality, 3-D and thought-interface design. No Pac-
Man pixel will remain ungobbled, no controller or collectible untouched,
throughout this 40-year retrospective, which chronicles the evolution of
game design, development, production and marketing from the earliest
computer titles through arcade-era icons and the present virtual realm.
Witness original concept and character art through their creators’ eyes.
Turn your ears to the vintage 8-, 16- and 32-bit sounds of Nintendo’s Koji
Kondo and World of Warcraft composer Jason Hayes. Learn about the so
cial and community-development aspects of online, multiplayer gaming.
Pay your respects to console legends Atari, Sega and Sony. Tour the global
gaming universe in print, by genre and on the big screen, and step into the
future—literally—with the national debut of Virtusphere, a 10-foot hollow
sphere in which a user can run freely while wearing a wireless, head-mount
ed display. All together now: Whoa.
W hether your high scores are in Pong or Pokemon, Space Invaders or the
Sims, Asteroids or Halo Reach, OM SI’s exhibit is on like... you know.
Couple that with the already-running Narnia, The Exhibition, on view
