Game neatly sidesteps social networking horrors.

From teenagers who announce house parties online only for hundreds of gatecrashers to show up and wreck the place to people who’ve been fired over pictures they posted or Facebook status updates when they're supposed to be ill... and far worse things can and do happen too.

Top 10 Eighties Computer Games Worth Playing (Again) | GeekDad | Wired.com.

There was a time when even the best computer graphics available were lousy. In this ancient time, called “the Eighties,” graphics were cool for computer games to have, but really much less important than a good story and interesting puzzles to solve.

Many games have aged poorly, and are best left in the anonymity that the twenty-odd years since has brought them. But some are just as much fun to play now as they were then — possibly more fun, in fact, since now you can actually have other programs running at the same time as the games without bringing your computer to its digital knees. Now, unfortunately, not all games we’d like to mention are available online, abandonware though they may be. Here, then, are the top ten computer games from the 1980s that you can either play online or download for free or very little money. Introduce your kids to them, not with a “When I was your age, this is what I played,” but with a sincere “Look how cool this game is!”

"Kurt Cobain is one of the most recognizable frontmen in rock 'n' roll history and it's an honor to have two of Nirvana's masterpieces included in Guitar Hero 5," said Activision VP Tim Riley. "This is the first time the original recording of 'Smells Like Teen Spirit' has ever been licensed in an entertainment property and we're thrilled to offer Guitar Hero fans exclusive access to the unreleased live version of 'Lithium.'"
