Believe it or not, not everyone owns a video game console. Crazy, huh? But for those who have yet to take the plunge, they can still get a piece of the action on their PC. Today’s PC games are exciting, interactive adventures featuring awesome graphics and sound.
When buying PC games, it’s important to pay attention to the minimum requirements and those pesky details such as RAM and operating systems. What good is owning the latest “World of Warcraft” game if your PC can’t handle it?
Most video game makers create versions for the various consoles including Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Nintendo Wii, and the PC. For example, as you mourn the release of the final Harry Potter book, you can get the Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix video game for the Nintendo DS, Xbox 360, PS2, PS3, Nintendo Wii, and PC DVD.
Choosing PC games is a terrific way to get involved with gaming without having to spend a boatload of money on video consoles. Granted, you need a computer but you’ve got one of those already, right?
In addition to being entertaining, PC games can also be educational. You can build your vocabulary, sharpen your math skills, and learn about science simply by playing PC games. How cool is that? Most educational video games are geared to certain grade levels. And don’t think they’re just for preschoolers. Talking dictionaries and language courses are just the tip of the iceberg.
If you aren’t sure about buying video game consoles but want to get in on the action, choose PC games. You can get your feet wet and enjoy the latest fun and games on your computer. Warning: you could become addicted! As a new PC games fanatic, you’ll be tempted to upgrade your computer’s memory and graphics card in which case, maybe you’d be better off shopping for consoles instead!
