With many console games costing hundreds of dollars and game titles usually starting out at 40-80 dollars, a good alternative is to play any of the thousands of free online games. You can forgo the need to purchase a brand new HDTV and the latest audio equipment and simply use any modern computer with internet access to entertain yourself for hours. Finding Good Quality Games Often the best way to find the most entertaining games is word of mouth and often Google searches yield excellent search results. I find the best quality games are often found on games portals as they pre-screen their games for variety, quality and hold them to high standards. Another option is bloggers that are often quite passionate about the newest and most entertaining games available so they are often a very useful resource when searching for new games to try out. There are thousands of these blogs available that are updated daily so I would recommend searching out one that appeals to you. Game Portals Online game portals have achieved broad success as a result of increased broadband connections among consumers but even dial-up modems are able to play many of these games due to the small file size of them. The increase of internet access speed also means that game developers are able to create higher quality games with better graphics and game play. Fans of all genre, type and flavor of game will be able to quickly find some entertaining ways to spend their time. An example of an immensely popular browser-based game portal would be Miniclip which has upwards of 43 million unique visitors on their website per month. These larger portals often feature localization in multiple languages such as English, Korean, Italian, Chinese, Spanish, Polish, Portuguese and French. Other very large and successful Game Portal sites would include Yahoo Games, Kongregate, Newgrounds and Armor Games. Millions of users every month visit these websites playing a variety of games ranging from chess to zombie games. Variety is one of the most compelling features of these free portals so you will often find categories such as Action, Adventure, Girls, MMO, Racing and Multiplayer games. As well you can find entire game portals devoted solely to one type of category such as Racing Games or Dressup games for example. Game Formats The most popular format used for these games would be Adobe Flash Player. This format has become very well distributed across the desktop market resulting in market dominance. Adobe makes the claim that 98% of US web users have their software player installed. Also one of the best aspects of Flash is it is not specific to PC or Mac, but usable by both types of personal computer. Other types of formats online browser games can include Html, Java, Shockwave, Unity and the newer Microsoft Silverlight format. Most new computers do not come pre-installed with the above game players so when you attempt to play a game without the appropriate software, it will often auto install the software for you. Popularity Numerous studies from research groups such as Deloitte & Touche have released reports detailing the surging popularity of online games. A five fold growth prediction was touted recently in one of their white papers. Developing nations such as China, India and Latin America are poised to introduce millions more of gamers which will drive the demand for even more games and games portals. Summary Browser games only require an internet connection and a web browser so why not give them a try, its one of the fastest growing game markets. They are fun, unique, often innovative and the best part they are all available at no cost at all.

Entertainment is an integral part of our lives. In fact, there are various forms of entertainment that existed during the pre-colonial era, such as watching opera and musical theater plays. Betting is also an active recreation during the colonial times. It is designed to provide pleasure to individuals of varying age groups and areas of interest. However, with the rapid development of technology nowadays, entertainment is not just about watching operas and musical plays. Entertainment in the 21st century is now dependent on the development of technology—animated and digital films, television programs, and video game consoles. Video game console means entertainment for the younger members of our society. Because of the animated game characters and graphics similar to real-life characters, video game consoles became one of the hottest items in the electronic market. Since its existence in 1972 (when Magnavox released its 1st home video game console, which is the Magnavox Odyssey) until the continuous release of its new generation game systems, video game consoles are now what we call the “entertainment of the 21st century and beyond”. Because of the popularity of these video game consoles to the gaming public, particularly to the young generation, different technology firms released different game consoles that cater to the needs of the gaming public. It paved the way to the birth of the sixth generation of video game consoles, which the Xbox belongs to. Xbox’s producer, which is no other than the Bill Gates’ Microsoft Corporation, said that Xbox game console takes you away beyond the ordinary entertainment. It redefines the way you play the game of your choice. Aside from games, you have access to music and movies through this high-technology game console system. Thus, it lets you share good times with your friends and even lets you compete with other gamers around the world. Xbox was Microsoft’s first independent business enterprise in the video game console industry, after the development of the tools for MSX (the standardized home computer architecture of Microsoft in the 1980s) and the operating system for Windows. It was launched on different dates: November 15, 2001 in North America, February 22, 2002 in Japan, and March 14, 2002 in Europe. The development of Xbox was initially facilitated by a small team formed by Microsoft, which included the famous high energy physicist and game developer Seamus Blackley. The rumors of the release of a Microsoft-developed video game console first spread at the end of 1999 following interviews of Microsoft big boss Bill Gates, saying that the company is developing a gaming and at the same time a multimedia device that is essential in the convergence of digital entertainment era. And the company confirmed such rumors through a press release on the “Xbox project” on March 10, 2000. As previously mentioned, the first launch of Xbox was in North America on November 15, 2001. On its first launch, most of Xbox’s launch titles became one of the best-selling games at the end of 2001. Some of the successful launch titles of Xbox were the Halo: Combat Evolved and its sequel, Halo 2 (which became the most played game in the Xbox Live), NFL Fever 2002, Dead or Alive 3, and Project Gotham Racing. Xbox’s design was based on the fact that there must be a game system that will take advantage of the slowdown of saturated PC gaming market and at the same time integrate a built-in Ethernet adapter. It was the first video game console to integrate a hard disk drive into its system, which is used mainly to store game data compressed in a ZIP archive and content download from Xbox Live. Thus, it eliminated the need for a separate memory card, which is popularized by Sony’s Playstation. Most of the Xbox games make use of the console’s hard drive as the disk cache for quicker game loading time. There are also games that support “Custom soundtracks”, which allows the user to rip music from standard audio CDs and add it to the soundtrack of the game. With the Xbox as one of the modern video game consoles ever produced, it provides unusual entertainment for gamers; especially those who are looking for a gaming experience that will make them crave for it. Yes, Microsoft’s Xbox did it—one of the game systems that you will love once you get your hand on it.

There are a thousand and one ways to bring fun to an otherwise bland afternoon, or weekend morning. Most young people solve such a problem with online or non-network gaming. Some of the games can indeed leave your wallets way too empty. But lets try to know more about two types of games out there that are not too costly, and which kids are naturally going after. “Dress up” or “Fashion” games have become popular among girls around the world. An example of this is Bratz dress up games. These players admit that these virtual toys have become very effective replacements of their former paper dolls. In the middle to late nineties, some youth-oriented websites started making these games which are often browser-based. A player only has to drag and drop different items of apparel onto a 2-dimensional doll to complete that game. Since then, these sites have put into effect some cool upgrades like better user interfaces and multi-media features. Even more exciting is that there is no more installation or registration required to enjoy most of these games. All you need is a desktop PC or a laptop, and a good Internet connection to enjoy the games, some of which are in the format of the “Flash” platform by Macromedia. Most of the important game creators come from Asian countries, which in turn were mostly inspired by the wide-eyed, small-lipped characters of those Japanese anime. The loyal fans of anime worldwide prove that this style of representing toys can be a potential hit to young people. In the bid for a still more -realistic feel to the game, other game designers attempt to mirror today’s fashion world, thus opening up references for style makers and aficionados. It is said that anime was an inspiration behind the making of Bratz dress up games. Just the same, the concept of paper dolls are still very much around. After skimming over dress up games, its time we discussed freeware games. Fortunately for gamers out there, freeware games are all over the Internet. Game developers have been able to transform a lot of the games into popular and much cheaper versions. Any kid with a little help and supervision can easily download the game and play with it with no other hefty costs to pay. But are there really no strings attached? What happens to the people who made available for free these games? No worries actually, since the people who provided the freeware are only aiming to reach out to others who also have gaming know-how and interests like their’s. Still a deeper motive that gets mentioned often is that freeware games are the means of these groups of like-minded developers at ‘taking revenge’ at the owners of proprietary games. There is no lack in terms of diversity in freeware games. Try naming a proprietary games, and its possible it has a counter-part among the freeware: from adventure online games to driving games, it is all covered. So imagine how hue popularity and the online aspect converge; it is said that hundreds of participants would sometimes join together for free these role-playing games. Now, how do the owners of the freeware game sites keep the site running? This is where the pay-per-click ads come in. Freeware sites usually show only two to three ads and commercials, and the site owner earns a token amount of money when the ads are clicked.
