the more you know
>"Game over" is a message in video games which signals to the player that the game and an attempt of playing the level has ended
>in video games
In 1986, videogame arcades were the biggest market. They knew Game Over better than any of us.
high iq bait
No and that's why that quote was so popular. They thought it was something futuristic that fit well in the movie.
game over is a vidya phrase the OP is correct !
The OP is not saying vidya games = games
+1
"Game over" is a message in video games which signals to the player that the game and an attempt of playing the level has ended.
if we are quoting wikipedia like mouthbreathing midwits
>The message originated on pinball machines and has been very widely used in video games.
pinball machines are way older than vidya

When you finish playing a board game do you get up and yell GAME OVER! like some massive autist? Kek you probably do nevermind.
frick off
GAME OVER!
when you lose in a video game, do you yell game over? what a weird comparison to make
The game does that. Because it's a video game.
a video game adapting a saying that was popularized beforehand. if this is your idea of baiting you are probably a bit of a drag.
>a video game adapting a saying that was popularized beforehand

Pinball is a type of video game.
>A video game is an electronic game that involves interaction with a user interface or input device to generate visual feedback from a display device, most commonly shown in a video format on a television set, computer monitor, flat-panel display or touchscreen on handheld devices, or a virtual reality headset.
The phrase was used as early as 1950 in devices such as electro-mechanical pinball machines, which would light up the phrase with a lamp (lightbulb).
And how many people would have been playing in those times? Like 20? There is no way movie goers way back then would have known or cared about that shit.
what are you doing
It's a fair point. Video games were extremely niche until the 2000s.
I can't believe people like you exist. You over think shit to the point you come off like a dunce. Nobody in 1986 was confused by "Game over."
Its just moronic zoomers who wern't even born till after 9/11
>Its just moronic zoomers who wern't even born till after 9/11
I would just boot that old second-mortgage-getting frick across the yard.
Are you really going to pretend that the golden age of arcades didn't exist and that for a brief time it was acceptable for normies to hang out playing Pac-Man and Asteroids?
Is playing stupid on Cinemaphile really a positive use of your time?
By 86 everyone would know about video games lmao. They where just seen as kids shit, and nerds were the moral equivalent of bronies.
>zoomers dont know about the c64
it figures
kill all zoomers in minecraft
>no modern video games use "game over" anymore
do zoomers even know the term?
>zoomers
Generation Z (or more commonly Gen Z for short), colloquially known as Zoomers,is the demographic cohort succeeding Millennials and preceding Generation Alpha. Researchers and popular media use the mid-to-late 1990s as starting birth years and the early 2010s as ending birth years. Most members of Generation Z are children of Generation X or younger Baby Boomers. The older members may be the parents of the younger members of Generation Alpha.
wrong boomer
>gen x and older boomer
>millenial and younger zoomer
The history of video games began in the 1950s and 1960s as computer scientists began designing simple games and simulations on minicomputers and mainframes. Spacewar! was developed by Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) student hobbyists in 1962 as one of the first such games on a video display. The first consumer video game hardware was released in the early 1970s. The first home video game console is the Magnavox Odyssey, and the first arcade video games are Computer Space and Pong. After its home console conversions, numerous companies sprang up to capture Pong's success in both the arcade and the home by cloning the game, causing a series of boom and bust cycles due to oversaturation and lack of innovation.

Yes anon, most western audiences knew that video games existed in 86
Pretty much unless you'd been in prison since the '70s
there were arcade games in the 80s
If a zoomer was marathoning this film and got to this part he/she/ze would proablyh just turn off their phone at that point in the film in confusion
It's been a thing since the 50's. You are moron extreme.
>The phrase was used as early as 1950 in devices such as electro-mechanical pinball machines, which would light up the phrase with a lamp (lightbulb).[1] Before the advent of home consoles and personal computing, arcades were the predominant platform for playing games, which required users to deposit a token or coin into an arcade game machine to play. Most early arcade video games typically had the game end when a timer ran out, with shoot 'em up game Space Invaders (1978) later popularizing a game over triggered by the player getting killed by enemies (either by being shot or enemies reaching the player),[2] with the player given a finite number of lives before the game ends.[3]
>Wasn't popularized until 1978
>Somehow everyone would have known about it less than 10 years later in 1986
Doesn't add up.
Game over Nova!
From a 1968 movie
not only has it been a thing in 86 the home computer was just exploding at that time so the line was highly topical
*market
Bill Paxton continuously apologized to Carrie Henn throughout filming every time Hudson had to swear in front of her. Carrie later admitted that she didn't mind, mainly because she really didn't know what any of the words meant.
You ever heard of sports anon? Fricking moron
Have you? Nobody says game over in sports. Boomer mong.
>No one in the last 100 years of sports has ever said Game Over
How do you function while being this moronic?
>Someone must have said it once
>Therefore it was a common phrase
Double digit IQ detected.
Yes, cum brain
Find me one example of a sports match that ended with a game over announcement. Should be simple enough.
You have google, find it yourself
Uh oh, backpedaling already?
Google a little complex for you zoomie mind?
>Can't find one
>Tries to deflect
I'll wait.
Or you could use google, i know thats hard for your tiny zoomie brain
Nah it's apparently too hard for your boomer brain since you claim it's so common yet you can't find one example.
>No u
kek you have been utterly destroyed zoomie
>Still trying to deflect when you can't find one example
>When you were the one making the initial claim
I accept your concession.
Just googled it, nothing came up. So I guess you're wrong.
It is knows as one of the earliest mainstream references of video game culture.
>Games…………… end?????????
>what is pacman
>what is donkey kong
>what is wizardry
>what is bard's tale
this zoombot thread is unbelievable
Nobody knows what the frick those are.
But they did in 1986 when Aliens came out, moron.
1-up
Coin op games had existed since the 30's. Modern electronic pinball and arcade machines since the early 1970s. Pac-Man fever had come and gone 5 years prior in nearly every bar and arcade in America.
So yes. Everyine but the fricking elderly in palliative care knew what "game over" meant.
well it's set in the future so video games would be more widely known and socially acceptable form of entertainment
This is one of the most moronic threads i have ever seen
>moron
In modern usage, moron is a pejorative term either for someone with a mental disability or for someone who is considered stupid, slow to understand, or ineffective in some way. The adjective moronic is in the same way used for something very foolish or stupid.Because it is now considered offensive, the word is commonly referred to by the euphemisms "r-word" and "r-slur"
moron
Recursion occurs when the definition of a concept or process depends on a simpler version of itself.Recursion is used in a variety of disciplines ranging from linguistics to logic. The most common application of recursion is in mathematics and computer science, where a function being defined is applied within its own definition. While this apparently defines an infinite number of instances (function values), it is often done in such a way that no infinite loop or infinite chain of references can occur.
A process that exhibits recursion is recursive.
NES was king in 1986, zoom-zoom.
Wait… they had games back then? They understood the concept of a game ending in those times?
Pong came out well over a decade earlier.
It's from Space Invaders and other arcade games you fricking wank.
The space marines would play vidya on planet Acturian inbetween troony orgys
"Game over" seems a little too close to "It's over". Why didn't the ADL boys put a stop to this antisemtic chanting all those decades ago?
actually great bait
what the frick? do you have a fishing related message board open in a different tab?
Game Over has been use in chess before or other sports, stupid zoom zoom.
Oh yeah? Post one example.
