I’ve started to adapt my historic accounting of gaming away from hardware centric (console generations) and toward languages and compilers, and the force-multiplication they provided to developers which is tangibly evident in the products. Though these do correlate strongly with orders of magnitude of RAM being made available.

- Physical logic gate era of gaming.

- Assembly era

- C era

- OOP era

- Interpreted languages and game logic living in scripts on top of c++ engines

- Fully Gen-AI era?
