Those radical dudes at 4 Color Rebellion pointed our attention to the Game Innovation Wiki.

The wiki's goal? Simple: "The goal of the GIDb is to classify and record every innovation in the entire history of computer and videogames."

It's an excellent idea, but it's still in its embryonic stages, and a lot of the information isn't quite correct. For example, Guitar Hero is cited as the first guitar controller for a game, which I'm pretty sure isn't true: although a cursory Googling reveals nothing, weren't there some Japanese rhythm games that used one as well?

Still, being able to easily correct inaccurate articles is what Wiki's are all about, in addition to editing pages with an editorial slant that you don't like so they only display the gaping anus of Goatsex. You're a savvy bunch of gamers, why not start loading it up?
