Mr. Castro gave a very good and informative lecture on the history of video gaming by showcasing the different iconic games throughout the previous decades. He also talked about how each game contributed to the development and success of the whole video gaming industry as we see it today. Mr. Castro kept it interesting for the crowd by throwing in some bits of gaming trivia and he also kept his audience engaged on the lecture by asking questions and rewarding chocolate bars to those who got it right, all of which were enjoyed by the happy attendees.

After the lecture, a raffle was held for all the attendees. Gaming peripherals courtesy of Eleet Gaming were given away as prizes to the lucky raffle winners.
