Pong was played on a cathode ray tube, with a 'ball' and two paddles which could be moved up and down at each end of the screen. Two people would each control a paddle and have to hit the ball past the opponent. The ball would bounce on an angle depending on how far from the centre of the paddle it hit. It would bounce off the top and bottom of the screen.

I remember Pong and thought it was so clever! I remember Space Invaders too. There was PacMan and SuperMarioBros and Prince of Persia and all sorts. Now, you are playing Unreal Tournament, which is a different world altogether. With 1xEV-DO you can play anywhere. You can't move much data over your GSM phone and the data moves slowly and costs a lot.

You'll like 1xEV-DO [evolution, data-optimized]. W-CDMA is slower.
