- Warcraft Iii Dota
In the past decade, the computer gaming industry has grown from zilch to mammoth. The quality of game graphics and design enhanced with each new developed game. The latest games swept less new ones off the shelves of gamers. This was the case for almost all game genres especially with strategy games. However, a few strategy games developed by Blizzard Entertainment never seemed to lose their charm, in fact, they continually kept growing even more popular. One such game by Blizzard Entertainment is Warcraft III: Dota.
Dota stands for Defense of the Ancients. Dota is not game itself; it is a multiplayer map on Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne. But because of its fame and ample differences with the rest of the game, this map is often considered an entirely separate game itself rather than just a map in The Frozen Throne. - Playstation 3 Is An Entertainment Powerhouse
Playstation 3 represents Sony's 7th attempt at creating a home video game console system, and arguably their most innovative yet. Set for release on November 17th of 2006, this unit will shape our expectations for video games in the years to come.
The system will represent a marked increase in price when it comes to video game systems, but it will also offer unrivaled features that cannot be found in any console to date. The suggested retail price for North America has been set at roughly $499, an almost twofold increase on it's release price for the Playstation 2. The price is justified, however, by the host of options that the Playstation 3 will incorporate. Just like the Playstation 2, the Playstation 3 will be backwards compatible with all prior Playstation products. This means that you can play your classic Playstation 1 and 2 games on the system without making any modifications. The Central Processing Unit of the Playstation 3 will run at a speed of 3.2 gigahertz, which is a truly powerful number. The 3.2 gigahertz offers roughly the same performance as current top-of-the-line computers, and 512 megabytes of RAM ensures that the memory capabilities of the Playstation 3 match up with its processing power. Several different types of media will be usable on the PS3, including blu-ray discs, DVDs, CDs, and SACDs. The system will also come equipped with a hard drive in which you can store your saved games to a much higher capability than by the memory cards associated with the Playstation 2. PS3 will also represent Sony's first console that features built-in internet connectivity. Connecting via a 1-gigabit Ethernet port, the PS3 is also compatible with Bluetooth technologies, as well as 802.11b/g wireless standards. - The Sims Makes History
A recent online survey of PC gamers has revealed that "The Sims" is one of the most popular and best-selling games of all time.
Electronic Arts, distributors of the game, announced that the virtual-life game created by Will Wright and Maxis, has sold over 7 million copies worldwide (2002) to dethrone Myst as the top-selling computer game of all time. If you combine The Sims with all its expansion versions, The Sims series will have accounted for more than 13 million sales worldwide.
