Online Games

Online gaming is one of the most common uses of the World Wide Web. Ever since the early days of internet, even when the connection was slow and expensive, online games were extremely popular among children and adults as one. The improvement of online games is parallel to the technology development. If once there was only a limited supply of online games, the graphics was poor and the sound affects were annoying, today’s picture is different.

Nowadays, the selection of online games is almost endless. The supply of games in an average online gaming portal ranges from single player games where you play against the computer to multi player games in which you can compete with hundreds of real players from different parts of the world; from online versions of classic video games to sophisticated real-time strategy games; from online games that were designed to help you pass few moments of boredom to games you can play for a whole day, pause and continue the next day.

Additionally, the sights and sounds of the online games have evolved radically. The graphics, animations and sound of the browser games (flash or java based games that can be played directly on the browser) are still simple comparing to the massive multiplayer online games (for example, Second Life, World of Warcraft, EverQuest, etc), in which the graphics and animations are photorealistic.

Despite the evolution of online games, or maybe because of it, people are still drawn to online games such as card games (poker etc.), board games(backgammon online or chess) and sports games, the same familiar games used to be played almost by anyone, everywhere in the world, with or without a computer and an internet connection, but their online versions are more accessible, easy to use and available 24/7.
