 Video games--a girl thing? | Newsmakers | CNET News.com
When game developer Sheri Graner Ray attended her first Game Developers Conference in 1992, she was one of just a handful of women at the event.
She got her start as an avid "Dungeons and Dragons" player, moving into video games when she was hired by Origin Systems to work on the "Ultima" series.
To have gone from this conference in 1993--when they had their very first roundtable on girls in games and there were six people--to driving it all that time, and now having the industry recognize...it's more than just recognizing me, it's recognizing the validity of the work that the women's group has been doing.

In many video games of the 8 and 16-bit eras, after a level was beaten and/or when all continues were wasted, the game would display a password, that when entered in the game would allow the player to return back to this part in the game.
Platform and puzzle games are famous for this, as often the only data required is the level achieved, thus not needing to waste 1/15th of a memory card.
In recent games, the use of passwords for saving progress has been replaced by saves, while passwords have taken on the slightly different role of adding in extra characters, vehicles, or weapons; in this context they are usually referred to as cheat codes.

 Password (video games) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Some modern video games still use passwords as a homage to the early days of gaming, or to conserve memory blocks due to the lack of data being saved, and the commodity status placed upon the small number of memory blocks on PlayStation one memory cards.
In other languages with more characters, passwords can be shorter.
With passwords, although no other statistics are saved, this problem does not exist.

Yes you all thought this game was going to be good and fun and cool looking because of its cell shaded graphics.

Nice site, I enjoy colorful reviews of video games, especially when they are as overrated as this one(some sites gave this game ridiculously high ratings in spite of its many shortcomings).
