Online Games


In the past few years, online games have been everybody's addiction, starting with little kids to grown ups.

Most online games rely on a good internet connection and graphic cards(VGA). The user can download the game for free from the main website, then register in order to be able to play the game. Some, if not most game sites, require certain fees (credit cards,...) to start playing, but that's not our case here, since i will discuss free online games and how users interact with each others via them.

Some of the most famous online games are: GunBound, Travian & World of War Craft.

All those require a certain internet speed to be able to play the game smoothly and challenge the other users. The most common phrase said while playing those games is, "I Am Lagging!!" This means that there's a huge number of users using the game's server at once, which could add up to millions since people from across the world are playing the game.

GunBound has been the most famous online game in the past few years, so in order to keep you interested, i shall discuss it in the upcoming post as an example that explains online games more.
