The first 'real videogame' Gabe Newell played was Star Trek, where you made your choices via punch cards before running over to the printer: 'It usually takes about 15 minutes to do a move'

Probably a version of the same thing I had on my C64, albeit I didn’t have to rely on a printout to see the results. Basically you had to clear each sector of the galaxy from Klingons (although not called Klingons because of Paramount’s iron grip). A sector was a grid of squares, you took turns with the Klingon ship in moving or firing stuff, etc. For the time it was fun.

I guess Gabe did another interview, so now PCGamer is gonna post some article every day for the next couple of weeks, about every little thing he said?

I think I played that one, but I think it was ported to the Apple // by the time I played it.

Out of all billionaires, Gaben is the most human. Touching article.

I played the Atari version, which was actually properly licensed through Paramount. Great game, still fun (can be played via emulator). Coincidentally, I recently started an attempt at recreating it in Python, after decades of good intentions.

does it count as a “video” game if there’s no video?
