Online games are more popular then ever!
It look like each day new computer online games are created. The problem gamers are facing now is which online game to get?
I remember back in 1984 when nobody had that problem! Indeed, when I got my first computer there was no online gaming existing. Thinking of it, there were not a lot of regular computer games in stores either. We were not even talking or thinking about online games! You can not miss what you do not know. Microsoft was in it's infancy. I wish I had bought some of their stocks at that time.
Yes, back then, what we could call today the prehistoric age of computer gaming was not very much user friendly. Indeed you had to load a game from a cassette player (yes I said a cassette player) and we hoped for the best. Many times the download from the cassette player failed. It took many tries and when we got lucky it took a long time to load, hey it was a big 4k program after all! My complete computer memory was 16k... but would you believe we were excited and hypnotized by the new technology behind it.
Computer Online Games - Nowadays
Today we almost stopped counting the mega bytes, the pixels and the memory, who cares... we are mega everything and mega whatever is cheap. But you know what? We had as much fun back then with less puny kilobytes than today with tons of them. These days we are very spoiled with new technologies coming out every month. You purchase a brand spanking new mega everything top of the line computer, a top dog monster actually but only months after, the monster will turn into a regular pooch then few months later it will transform into a poor puppy that can barely keep up with the quick moving new top dog computers behemoths... yes, this is reality on the internet super highways where computers live a short exciting life and die fast. You can not even count the loads of "high tech has-been" road kills on each sides of the superhighway. Clear the way slow poke or die!
One day back in the prehistoric age of 1994, a new bright world emerged from the ocean of the dark lonely world of my computer desk. A new dawn. I remember clearly the first day I got my first modem. A big heavy cumbersome lighting fast 300 baud modem! The beast was noisy and slow but it was also great because it opened up my small lonely computer world into a vast infinite internet extraordinary world by connecting me to a huge lifeline that will soon circumverate the globe. The online computer gaming period had just begun! Whoo hoo it was super! I forgot to eat for a while and going to bed became optional.
