		Portable Game Notation (.PGN) is a computer-processable format for recording chess games (both the moves and related data); many chess programs recognize this extremely popular format due to its accessibility by ordinary ascii editors, including word processors capable of importing and exporting plain ascii.
		This game was later nicknamed "The Immortal Game" in 1855 by the Australian Ernst Falkbeer.
		This game is an excellent demonstration of the style of chess play in the 1800s, where rapid development and attack were considered the most effective way to win, where many gambits and counter-gambits were offered (and not accepting them would be considered slightly ungentlemanly), and where material was often held in contempt.

	Encyclopedia: Opera game (chess)
		Chess is a two-player strategy board game of pure skill and one of the deepest and most complex games commonly played.
		It was introduced into Spain by the Moors in the 10th century, where a famous games manuscript covering chess, backgammon, and dice named the Libro de los juegos, was written under the sponsorship of Alfonso X of Castile during the 13th century.
		At one time, chess games were recorded using Descriptive chess notation, a somewhat clumsy notation that takes more space, more time to say, and more time to explain than its replacement, algebraic chess notation.

		The game was played as Phildor's Defense, and Morphy's superior tactical and strategic prowess simply overpowered the two royal opponents, who according to some texts argued repeatedly over Black's moves.
		However, their combined play in the game giving considerably charity to them, is best described as amatuerish.
		Being perhaps Morphy's most "famous" game, but far from his best because of the inadequacies in playing by the Duke and Count, many have anaylzed the game.
