Australians in Victoria have a nice treat headed their way. The Game On exhibit, which I briefly went to see at Chicago’s Museum of Science and Industry not too long ago, will be coming to Melbourne’s Australian Centre for the Moving Image. The exhibit will be arriving for February of next year according to Games Lab curator Helen Stuckey. You’ll be able to see and play on some classic arcade and console set ups, learn about the history of games and game development, and much more.

In addition to Game On’s previously mentioned showing in the great city of Chicago, the exhibit has been hosted in London’s Science Museum and the San Jose Tech Museum. Those in Victoria who are within reasonable distance should consider checking it out, as the exhibit will cover the 40-year history of video games.
