Nope! Tetris wasn't the first—Pong and even earlier games like Spacewar! were around before it.

As amazing as Tetris is, it definitely wasn't the first video game! The crown goes to earlier classics like Pong and Spacewar!. I played those gems at the arcade before Tetris came into the picture!

Tetris is legendary, but it wasn’t the first. That credit goes to older games like Tennis for Two.

No way! The first video game title goes to 'Tennis for Two' in 1958.
