Were games even around 20 years ago? That seems like too much time not to be fake

No, sweetie. Nothing existed until you were born. Then the world erupted in delights the like of which we had never seen.

Let me boot up this copy of SpaceWar! from 1962.... Yep, it is real.

Also, the oldest STEAM account is now >20 years old.

Hate to break it to you, but 20 years ago was 2006. Almost 2007, not 1954
