In this episode, Matt takes us on a tour of the PLATO computer system, an early mainframe-based learning system that flourished in the 1970s. Not many people have seen the incredibly advanced games that originated on this system--games that would inspire later classics such as Elite, Battlezone, Star Control, and many others. Tune in to learn about Spasim, Panther, Empire, Orthanc, Avatar, and Airfight! Special thanks to The Computer Museum for some of the images in the video.
