Computer Games – Latest Games and Reviews by Andy Clarkson
Computer games have come a long way since 1962, which some regard as the birth year of gaming. 1962 saw the introduction of the first ever Computer Game, Spacewar. Compared to today’s high intensity and superior quality games, Spacewar was much more basic in nature and user interface. As the name suggests, the game had two spaceships, each controlled by a player trying to, basically, destroy the opponent ship.
Video games (unlike television) were highly interactive in nature – user involvement being the sole aim – and games started paving the way for a completely new dimension of recreation, one that caught the whole world in its grip.
Another reason behind the craze of computer games is the kind of variety there is to offer. With limitless options to work on, game developers are creating new and better games for one and all. Games can primarily be categorised into genres.
Some of the gaming genres are:
* Action
* Action adventure
* Construction/Management
* Life Simulations
* Role Playing
* Strategy
* Sports
* Vehicle Simulation and much more
All Games can be categorised into one of these genres. Some of the more popular gamess are listed below:
* Mummy Returns: Based on the blockbuster movie with the same name, Mummy Returns is a high adrenaline game from the Action Adventure genre. It is based in the deserts of Egypt where the hero (O’Connell) and his friend embark on a mission to take on the Evil Imhotep. The game has 23 thrilling levels and four modes.
* Mario and Luigi Superstar Saga: The world famous Mario is back, this time with Luigi, and they are both set to embark upon a hilarious and action packed quest.
* Drag Racer USA: A high speed, high octane game comes your way from the vehicle simulation genre. It will surely send your heart racing with its 600+ BHP powerhouse cars zooming past you. The hi-end graphics used in the game makes it even more realistic and interactive.
* Odin Sphere: A thrilling role-playing game where you get to follow trails, uncover secrets and try to end the prophecy and save the world.
