If you watch SpikeTV or ESPN, you might see a commercial about video games in between all the Viagra and natural male enhancement ads. Later, as you go through a department store you might pass by the video games section and see that there are multiple machines available for video games, as well as other “legal” activities. All of these machines look very different from one another but they have one thing in common: They play video games.
Skating and fighting games have always been major sales pushers and with the Ultimate Fighting Championship entering the sales fray I think it’s fair time to discuss why you, the consumer, should even think about buying any of these products. Don’t worry because we got you covered.
First, let’s talk about the most popular video game machine ever, the personal computer. I know what you’re thinking, “If they make videogames for computers, why are there machines created specifically for videogames?” Well, it turns out that to build up a PC to compete with today’s consoles it would cost at least $500. Yes, PC gaming is very expensive and unless you make big bucks, is reserved only for the elite gamers. I am not one. I can say though that old school PC games are the only games that a standard computer can support. Also, some games have spyware installed and that isn’t what anyone wants. Why use a PC for games then you say? If you have a standard computer play with the PC versions of last generations consoles games. There is a plethora of games to choose from all going for around $20, which is cheap in gamer land. However, if you have Windows Vista then the games might not work. If you have a MAC, good luck, most games only support Windows XP or Vista, but are guaranteed to work.
Final Word: PC games are to be played at the buyer’s risk.
