With the advent of LCD monitors, DVD, high-end gaming consoles, digital TVs, etc., people now view
digital visual entertainment in new ways that we have never known before. People wouldn't go and watch a damn movie with crappy digital effects; they would rather spend time playing a good digital game on one of those high-priced gaming consoles, you know. This is why wannabe game programmers start early in their programming dreams, and they often start with Flash programming.
