Although there had been many attempts since the 1930s it was during the 1060s that a demand for video games started to grow.

In 1961 a group of students at MIT, including Steve Russell, programmed a game titled Spacewar! on the DEC PDP-1, a new computer at the time. The game pitted two human players against each other, each controlling a spacecraftcapable of firing missiles, while a black holein the center of the screen created a large hazard for the crafts. The game was eventually distributed with new DEC computers and traded throughout the then-primitive internet. Spacewar! is credited as the first widely available and influential computer game.

In 1966, Ralph Baercreated a simple video game named Chase that displayed on a standard televisionset, the first to do so. With the assistance of Baer, Bill Harrisoncreated the light gunand developed several video games with Bill Ruschin 1967. Ralph Baer continued development, and in 1968a prototypewas completed that could run several different games such as table tennis and target shooting.
