What does my computer need to play games?
Although games often have different hardware requirements, there are certainly characteristics of a good "gaming computer".  

First, a good gaming computer should have plenty of memory. Games are very dependent upon memory and memory contributes more to game performance than processor speed. Although a good processor (300mhz + ) doesn't hurt, having 64 MB of memory or more is far more beneficial.

Secondly, a gamer will want to have a strong video card. Often, games contain advanced 3d instructions and older video cards simply can't cut it. Gamers with older video cards should try a 3d accelerat or with 3dfx.

 
Third, gamers should get their hands on a decent gamepad or joystick. Often, the keyboard is difficult to use and makes gameplay suffer. Gamepads and Joysticks can be found anywhere and are relatively inexpensive.

 
Lastly, gamers should have a good sound card. Although most overlook sound, 3d sound really enhances the gaming experience and makes games a whole lot more fun.

Where can I get card games?
Video games are not just at the electronics store any more. In fact, the Internet is full of games of all kinds. Practically any game can be downloaded in some free form. Whether you want to play Poker Pai Gaw or Quake, the Web can help you find, play and conquer your game. It's simply a matter of where to look.

What are multiplayer games and how to they work?
The Internet has also given birth to new forms of gaming, such as multiplayer gaming. Essentially, multiplayer gaming allows two gamers to play a game together through the Internet. Although the most popular multiplayer games are 3d shooters like Quake and Unreal, virtually all new games can be played with others online. Even the newest version of Hasbro's monopoly can be played online.

As the Internet grows and connections improve, multiplayer games will probably replace traditional forms of gaming. In general, multiplayer games can be initialized by the simple sharing of an IP address. One computer generally becomes a "host" and other computers join the game occurring on that host.
