It is designed and available for &lt;a class=&quot;zem_slink&quot; href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PlayStation_Portable&quot; rel=&quot;wikipedia nofollow&quot; title=&quot;PlayStation Portable&quot;&gt;PSP&lt;/a&gt; and PS3 platforms.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;The creative tools available enable one to create &lt;a class=&quot;zem_slink&quot; href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kart_racing&quot; rel=&quot;wikipedia nofollow&quot; title=&quot;Kart racing&quot;&gt;karts&lt;/a&gt;, racers and even tracks. If you go online, you can share these with the online community. The karts can be made to look like trains, airplanes and cars among others and you can drift and accelerate along the track, collecting &lt;a class=&quot;zem_slink&quot; href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power-up&quot; rel=&quot;wikipedia nofollow&quot; title=&quot;Power-up&quot;&gt;power ups&lt;/a&gt; and missiles. Scattered along the track are weapons and munitions with different power levels. These are boost, sonic attacks, missiles and lightning strikes and vary in intensity. The sonic attacks at first level create small rockets and rings that knock off nearby opponents. Power up for more intensity to lightning level and you can shower thunder bolts on opponents.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;The kart also has a turbo boost that helps to put a shield and protect from incoming missiles. What is interesting is that the AI is very smart and this means the other racers are quick and agile and would knock you off or side swipe you at the first chance. The races are usually for three laps and the tracks are filled with short cuts and traps that get you down if you are careless. Races are divided into quick race, story mode, online race, stunts and grudge race. The idea is to master the track and learn hmv best to corner, use the short cuts and use the missiles properly. A first place in the podium requires lots of practice and work. The game plays very well and the controls are quick to respond.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;I would give the game a 9 for its game play, creativity and handling. It will cost you about Rs 3,000, but is worth the price. Whether you are six or si.,xty, you&#39;ll enjoy the game.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;When it comes to games for kids, there is a never-ending supply. You go to the grocery store and you see games. You go to the thrift store and you see games. Games for kids even come in $1.99 meals you buy at the drive through. So why is it so hard to find educational games that your kids will want to play?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;a name=&#39;more&#39;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;b style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;Finding Educational Games Doesn&#39;t Have to Be Hard&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;When it comes to finding educational games, it does not have to be hard. In fact, it can be as easy as looking in your own home. With the rise technology, educational games have taken on a whole new meaning. No longer do you need to go to the grocery store or department store to buy board games or card games for the kids to pay. You can now go to the computer.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;b style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;Computer Games Offer Hours of Educational Fun&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;Many different computer games can be purchased online and in stores for children to play. They range from Barbie adventures to Soldiers of Fortunes. Even cartoon characters take part in wild adventures that help your child learn and travel through imaginary worlds full of adventure and learning.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;While all computer games are educational, you need to be careful which games you purchase. Since your child will learn something, make sure your child is learning something useful.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;b style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;Online Games Take Learning to New Levels&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;Whole websites are developed and geared towards children. They are kid friendly and are full of educational value. Kids learn a variety of things from playing these free online games. One such site is Neopets. In this online world, kids play games, run shops, and take care of their Neopets all in a kid friendly environment. This site is just one of many kids like to explore online at no cost to parents.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;Parents wishing their children to explore educational games online only need a computer and Internet access. While sites like these are kid friendly, it is always a good idea to watch your child. While they work hard to protect children, it is always a good idea to instill good web browsing habits.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;b style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;Games for the iPhone/iTouch&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;This is the latest in games for kids. Over the last few years, games for the iTouch and iPhone have skyrocketed. Thanks to iTunes and the app store, finding educational games for the iTouch has never been easier.

If you see one you are not sure about, try finding one in the &quot;Lite&quot; version. While you can&#39;t always find a &quot;Lite,&quot; they are nice to try.

Though, still not as widely popular as Chun-Li, the young warrior has left an eternal footprint on the Street Fighter series.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cammy first appeared in the fighting game Super Street Fighter II: The New Challengers, which was released in 1993, as one of the four new characters.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the game, Cammy is a 19-year-old agent of the fictional Delta Red task force within MI6. In the Japanese version of her ending, she is revealed to have been an agent working for M Bison in the past, who lost her memory during an operation. In the English version of the game, this was changed into revealing that Cammy was Bison&#39;s lover.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cammy is shown as a petite girl with muscles, grown to supplement her thin body. Has long blond hair, which she usually ties in two pigtails. She has blue eyes and a scar on her left cheek. Blue-eyed Cammy is a close-range fighter who often hurls herself at the enemy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur=&quot;try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}&quot; href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSckKk0acMxQJq0nO6zXz55rnob3I9NyGas9mWSMpjr1F-zIMAcFlencxL3rn1_ZR39_jRXNgGYcpBys-ylkODs7V3a59b9bkKuu0HE2rmZyZVxc08tpt2iqJc4b6OGNbq2yoUfslGdrOC/s1600-h/Ada+Wong.jpeg&quot;&gt;&lt;img style=&quot;margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 266px;&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSckKk0acMxQJq0nO6zXz55rnob3I9NyGas9mWSMpjr1F-zIMAcFlencxL3rn1_ZR39_jRXNgGYcpBys-ylkODs7V3a59b9bkKuu0HE2rmZyZVxc08tpt2iqJc4b6OGNbq2yoUfslGdrOC/s400/Ada+Wong.jpeg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5363531203965827794&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A secondary character in the Resident Evil series, Ada Wong is still a compelling figure as the femme fatale of the popular game series.

Called Hunter by her arch enemies and Hatchling by Chozo, who brought her up after her parents were killed in a Space Pirate raid, Samus is regarded as one of the earliest and most significant female protagonists in the history of video games.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Samus hunts aliens called the Space Pirates and energy-draining alien parasites called Metroids. Wearing a Power Suit in some part of the Metroid series to protect herself from adverse environments and enemy fire, Samus also sports revealing bikini in some scenes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some recent games replace Samus bikini by a less revealing and more functional blue bodysuit, dubbed the Zero Suit. The original Metroid which was released in 1986 shows a pixilated Samus in a pink leotard and boots. The attire was considered extremely revealing during that time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;div style=&quot;margin-top: 10px; height: 15px;&quot; class=&quot;zemanta-pixie&quot;&gt;&lt;a class=&quot;zemanta-pixie-a&quot; href=&quot;http://reblog.zemanta.com/zemified/9fa943f3-6a19-40f7-b270-71237bd18fa3/&quot; title=&quot;Reblog this post [with Zemanta]&quot;&gt;&lt;img style=&quot;border: medium none ; float: right;&quot; class=&quot;zemanta-pixie-img&quot; src=&quot;http://img.zemanta.com/reblog_e.png?x-id=9fa943f3-6a19-40f7-b270-71237bd18fa3&quot; alt=&quot;Reblog this post [with Zemanta]&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;zem-script more-related pretty-attribution&quot;&gt;&lt;script type=&quot;text/javascript&quot; src=&quot;http://static.zemanta.com/readside/loader.js&quot; defer=&quot;defer&quot;&gt;&lt;/script&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://games-n-gaming.blogspot.com/2009/07/sexiest-babes-of-action-games.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Vipul Mistry)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg70WaG34ftDjzcTOiPx5CMjxgB2j-ptMf22uqRX8miTQxJsR4mtYz1xeFAAb_Kc_eBn0r2Gc9_QlTPSA15k9Nf123c8WLyFtgeC0BkCgLEAk0lDLpYQ0pvxhzfA4J4vr23u2xftq1nOp5K/s72-c/laracroft.jpeg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>2734</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6533890087124838660.post-745461085541011461</guid><pubDate>Mon, 15 Jun 2009 16:22:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2009-06-15T09:29:10.451-07:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Guitar Hero</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Ringo Starr</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Rock Band</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Sony</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Super Mario Bros</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">video game</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Video game console</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Wii</category><title>Big Budget Blockbusters</title><description>&lt;strong&gt;A round-up of the biggest, most eagerly awaited &lt;a class=&quot;zem_slink&quot; href=&quot;http://www.wikinvest.com/industry/Video_Games&quot; title=&quot;Video Games&quot; rel=&quot;wikinvest&quot;&gt;video game&lt;/a&gt; titles to watch out for in the coming year&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; src=&quot;http://cms.mumbaimirror.com/portalfiles/1/7/200906/Image/150609/Tec21-01.jpg&quot; align=&quot;right&quot; width=&quot;140&quot; height=&quot;300&quot; hspace=&quot;4&quot; /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:100%;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;Microsoft’s Natal, &lt;a class=&quot;zem_slink&quot; href=&quot;http://www.sony.net&quot; title=&quot;Sony&quot; rel=&quot;homepage&quot;&gt;Sony&lt;/a&gt;’s Wand, Paul Mc Cartney and &lt;a class=&quot;zem_slink&quot; href=&quot;http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0823592/&quot; title=&quot;Ringo Starr&quot; rel=&quot;imdb&quot;&gt;Ringo Starr&lt;/a&gt; – this year’s Electronic Entertainment Expo had video game consoles and celebrities hogging most of the limelight.

However, that doesn’t mean we aren’t eagerly waiting to spend hours playing them.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;New Super Mario Bros (Wii) &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Release Date: December 2009&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:100%;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;The latest addition to the Super &lt;a class=&quot;zem_slink&quot; href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mario_%28series%29&quot; title=&quot;Mario (series)&quot; rel=&quot;wikipedia&quot;&gt;Mario series&lt;/a&gt; promises blue skies, upbeat music, and multiplayer gameplay.

The third instalment has the chainblade-wielding warrior in a world that’s four times larger than the original, as he scales the depths of Hades and the heights of Mount Olympus.

Why shouldn’t he be, our appendaged hero in the 1988 classic stopped the resurrection of the nefarious Master-D, a clone of Hitler, saving Ascension city. In return he got his bionic arm confiscated, and his bionic butt thrown into a cell because the public got scared of the whole bionic thing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fresh and rebooted from the 80’s into sparkling 3D in &lt;a class=&quot;zem_slink&quot; href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bionic_Commando_%28NES%29&quot; title=&quot;Bionic Commando (NES)&quot; rel=&quot;wikipedia&quot;&gt;Bionic Commando&lt;/a&gt;, Nathan, sporting dreads and a bad ‘tude gets sprung out 10 years later by the enigmatic &lt;a class=&quot;zem_slink&quot; href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commando_%28video_game%29&quot; title=&quot;Commando (video game)&quot; rel=&quot;wikipedia&quot;&gt;commando&lt;/a&gt; Super Joe. He’s been reincarnated in the wake of the Bionic Purge, when an electromagnetic device is detonated, leaving Ascension city in ruins. Capcom’s signature campy dialogue is not gripping, but charming and funny nonetheless.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The bulk of the game is built around Radd’s Bionic arm, equipped with a &lt;a class=&quot;zem_slink&quot; href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grappling_hook&quot; title=&quot;Grappling hook&quot; rel=&quot;wikipedia&quot;&gt;grappling hook&lt;/a&gt;, which he uses to swing around like Spiderman.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Being brutally honest here, you need time to get used to the game – it’s not easy by any yardstick. Even after playing the tutorial, the first 10 minutes will make you just give up or smash your controller. Once you get used to the swinging, the gameplay shines forth. As you play the game you ‘remember’ powers, which unlock different abilities, like ripping wreckage from the walls, or punching debris into enemies.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The gunplay is weak; while you do get an occasional big gun, most of the time you have nothing but your standard pistol. You must rely on grapple attacks, where you latch on to an enemy, reel him in, and dismantle with a satisfying kick.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another frustrating annoyance is the sheer number of ways you can die. Even though it seems like an open ended world, any exploration beyond the usual boundaries results in death by radiation. Sometimes you wonder why you died. You die with a few bullets, you drown with the weight of the arm in flooded areas, you die when you touch fire, you die when you fall. Not only that, you probably have to restart at one of the very ill positioned checkpoints, which if you’re lucky, won’t have you re-watching the &lt;a class=&quot;zem_slink&quot; href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cut_scene&quot; title=&quot;Cut scene&quot; rel=&quot;wikipedia&quot;&gt;cut-scenes&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While all of this may seem monotonous, one must credit the developers for having lovingly crafted a brilliant looking &lt;a class=&quot;zem_slink&quot; href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apocalyptic_and_post-apocalyptic_fiction&quot; title=&quot;Apocalyptic and post-apocalyptic fiction&quot; rel=&quot;wikipedia&quot;&gt;post-apocalyptic&lt;/a&gt; wasteland. Bionic Commando gets better as you play on. Especially towards the end levels, is where everything ramps up to an epic ending. The boss battles are satisfying, one of the hallmarks of the game. They are refreshingly challenging, it takes lots of skill and strategy to bring them down.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bottom line is, you either will love or hate this game. If you do decide to go in for this, you are in for a frustrating time at first with the controls.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Persevere, and you will be rewarded with a very satisfying experience.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;            &lt;table summary=&quot;&quot; align=&quot;center&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; cellpadding=&quot;1&quot; cellspacing=&quot;1&quot; width=&quot;200&quot;&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;             &lt;td&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; src=&quot;http://cms.mumbaimirror.com/portalfiles/1/7/200906/Image/010609/Tec17-01a.jpg&quot; align=&quot;left&quot; height=&quot;139&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;   &lt;div style=&quot;margin-top: 10px; height: 15px;&quot; class=&quot;zemanta-pixie&quot;&gt;&lt;a class=&quot;zemanta-pixie-a&quot; href=&quot;http://reblog.zemanta.com/zemified/75cb1ca1-eea2-48ce-9f92-ca9c8a241302/&quot; title=&quot;Reblog this post [with Zemanta]&quot;&gt;&lt;img style=&quot;border: medium none ; float: right;&quot; class=&quot;zemanta-pixie-img&quot; src=&quot;http://img.zemanta.com/reblog_e.png?x-id=75cb1ca1-eea2-48ce-9f92-ca9c8a241302&quot; alt=&quot;Reblog this post [with Zemanta]&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;zem-script more-related pretty-attribution&quot;&gt;&lt;script type=&quot;text/javascript&quot; src=&quot;http://static.zemanta.com/readside/loader.js&quot; defer=&quot;defer&quot;&gt;&lt;/script&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://games-n-gaming.blogspot.com/2009/06/bionic-commando.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Vipul Mistry)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8B_xqZiMI7aGKDxCYlQsbQ3IFtJb7kkcU4hIj-IjHhhFyxWe8-1GD4XJwRSyKa_PXUcFco1h3-x7Yksv-QFEKYpaKeWnc9h-L8EMz4MxqR3GadnnywXvBhygW-Eo0ikbk5MxGtvdAHtmp/s72-c/Tec17-01.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6533890087124838660.post-2863927721532958578</guid><pubDate>Fri, 07 Nov 2008 17:19:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2008-11-07T09:19:00.392-08:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Her Interactive</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Nancy Drew</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">The Haunting Of Castle Malloy</category><title>Nancy Drew -- &quot;The Haunting Of Castle Malloy&quot; (Her Interactive)</title><description>&lt;script badgetype=&quot;square&quot; src=&quot;http://d.yimg.com/ds/badge2.js&quot; type=&quot;text/javascript&quot;&gt;

Are video games good for children?&lt;br /&gt;
With all the exposure on the bad games, the violent games that are nothing but blood and guts, it is hard to get past that to the benefits of video games to children.&lt;br /&gt;
Yes ..  there are benefits.&lt;br /&gt;
There are plenty of games out there that are not filled with violence and are geared to children by age. These games are good for children. Have you ever tried playing one of these games? It was tough enough playing &quot;pac man&quot;, right?&lt;br /&gt;
If you have never played a video game your child plays, welcome to a new world .... inside the video game world of your child.&lt;br /&gt;
Here they are asked to do multiple tasks .... bang, bang, bang ... quick moving, quick thinking, quick acting .... to get them to a goal set ahead. It becomes a speed game of chess where the entire game calls for the ability to think ahead . Nothing can develop the strategic thinking of your child so minutely.&lt;br /&gt;
The movements dependent on his fingers develop great eye/hand coordination as this problem solving strategy is going on in the brain.&lt;br /&gt;
If this is your first attempt at getting inside the video game world of your child, don&#39;t be dismayed if you cannot get past frame one. You are not unique. Now watch your child. You will be amazed .. not only at the speed of his/her finger movements but at the knowledge being displayed as the game goes on. How does he know which way to go? Which door is the correct one... and how does she tell? Which rock is the right one...... Is there a clue telling him?&lt;br /&gt;
Don&#39;t worry ...  they know what they are doing ... and all the while they are doing it .... they are getting smarter.&lt;br /&gt;
There is one thing to remember however. Video games are good for children .. but ... so is playing outdoors and reading and romping with their siblings or friends or dogs or Mom or Dad.&lt;br /&gt;
Video games can become almost seemingly addicting so it is up to you .. the parent to regulate the time your children spend playing them and ... of course ..... regulate the type of video games they play.&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://games-n-gaming.blogspot.com/2008/08/are-video-games-good-for-children.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Vipul Mistry)</author><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6533890087124838660.post-4100477151423971974</guid><pubDate>Sat, 16 Aug 2008 19:13:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2008-08-16T12:13:01.136-07:00</atom:updated><title>Some of our favorite XBox games you don’t even have to buy–just download!</title><description>&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;With the arrival of the next generation of X-box video games, the system for&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt; buying games has changed forever.

These games are available for players to try a sample before deciding on whether or not they’re going to buy the full version. Players can enjoy games at a lower cost, as the video game companies don’t have to worry about transportation costs or the middle man anymore. Players will be able to enjoy endless options for their high tech video game consoles. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;Users can also download the latest movies, music, and other programs for their X-box. This new system is one of the most innovative ways to play video games. Many video game consoles can simply store the information on a hard disk. This means the end of using CDs and DVDs that can be damaged by wear and tear after just a couple of months of use. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;Many X-box games are now released in stages, with users downloading the newest chapter or episode as they come out. This is one of the most innovative new developments in the world of video games. Instead of releasing an entire game at once, video game developers can release a game in episodes and offer players a much more interactive game playing experience. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;One of the most popular ways to enjoy the X-box 360 is through interactive online gameplay. Download the latest video games and go online to play with friends from around the world. Players who at one time became bored with their games because they were able to beat every level of the computer can now test their skills against the best from around the world. Imagine playing a game of football with an opponent led by a coach like you, who uses a strategy that is difficult to predict. No more patterns to get a touchdown every time. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Georgia,&amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,serif;&quot;&gt;Game play will never be the same.

The way they are designed which requires constant thinking and planning are one of the few factors which make these games so desirable and addictive.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;A brief research in board games shows remarkable facts about the history of board games, the oldest is said to date back to 3500 BC, this board game was called &quot;Senet&quot; which in ancient Egyptian translates to &quot;passing game&quot; ever since the first board entertainment games were invented they have evolved into more interesting forms which have been spread all over the world with the power of the internet.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;One board game which became popular in the early nineties is called battle-ship. The fact that this board game became popular during this decade is not an indicator of its age though, this game was first invented in 1931 and was first published Milton Bradley which gave a new design and spin in the 90&#39;s.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;Today, this legend lives on the web were it is accessible to millions of people around the globe. The rules and instructions to this game are quite easy, it is played in a double board setting which is divided by a similar vertical board where players can keep track of the attacks they have made on the opponent through a square tracking system. The goal is to try to find the exact position of your enemy&#39;s ships and sink them before they sink yours. When a player finds one ship he/she can keep on firing until a shot is missed, then it&#39;s your opponent turn to try to take on your fleet.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;The fleet consists of 5 vessels they are: an aircraft carrier which is often easy to take down due to its five square size, then we have a battleship which is somewhat easy to target because it covers 4 squares, a cruiser covers three squares, the submarine covers 3 and can be quite hard to find and last but not least we have the patrol boat which covers two squares and can be a nightmare if you have found all others but not this one. When played online you can play against the computer or against an actual player through social sites which makes things even more interesting and addictive.&lt;/span&gt;</description><link>http://games-n-gaming.blogspot.com/2008/08/free-online-games-and-their-history.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Vipul Mistry)</author><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6533890087124838660.post-4939116714319224354</guid><pubDate>Mon, 04 Aug 2008 18:54:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2008-08-04T11:54:00.818-07:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">history of pinball machines</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">pinball machine history</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">the history of pinball machines</category><title>The History Of Pinball Machines</title><description>&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;Pinball machines have a complex history. The roots of the modern-day pinball machines that you use in your local café come from games such as croquet and billiards, which constitute of guiding a ball to a precise location by hitting them with an instrument. However, the real spiritual ancestor to modern pinball machines was the game of Bagatelle. Developed in France during the 18th century, the game consisted of getting balls into the holes on one side of the board using a stick or a cue. The surface of the board was inclined, and obstacles were set in front of the holes to provide a more challenging experience. Many of these features have been adapted and can be seen in modern pinball machines.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;In the 19th century an inventor named Redgrave took the design of the Bagatelle game and improved on it. One of his additions, still visible today, is the plunger: a device which launched the ball up an inclined field. However, once the ball was released from the plunger the user could not interact with the ball further, as flippers for the pinball machine had not yet been developed. This lead to individuals gambling on the outcome the ball would face. As a result, pinball machines were banned in many parts of the United States, including in New York City from 1940 up to 1976. The ban on the machines was ended in a famous case where Roger Sharpe claimed that the balls could be controlled by skill (with the addition of flippers) and were not solely based on luck. On a pinball machine present in the courtroom, he announced where he was going to hit the ball and proceeded to do so successfully.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;The 1930s saw much innovation in terms of the design of pinball machines. The machines now included limited electronic functions such as basic sounds and the ability to propel the ball without the user&#39;s force. Several new features were introduced at this time as well, such as the tilt mechanism and free games. These new features were groundbreaking for those days and sparked a renewed interest in pinball machines. The &quot;Humpty-Dumpty&quot; pinball machine was the first pinball machine to include flippers. This meant that users could now play a ball for a greater period of time and introduced the whole aspect of skill and controlling the ball while playing pinball.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;However, with video games being developed in the 1980s, they were quickly set aside in arcades to make way for the innovation provided by the video game sector. Many companies which had made their fortunes on manufacturing pinball machines were forced to close. It was only in the 1990s that pinball machines made a comeback, bringing exciting innovations to the machines such as a complex displays and sound systems.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot; /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Trebuchet MS&amp;quot;,sans-serif;&quot;&gt;Yet the turn of the millennium was a turn for the worse for pinball machines, and the sales reported by many manufactures were falling dramatically. Most manufactures were once again forced to close. Today, Stem Pinball is the only remaining manufacturer in the industry. We will have to wait and see whether they are able to bring innovation to an industry which has had so many ups and downs.&lt;/span&gt;</description><link>http://games-n-gaming.blogspot.com/2008/08/history-of-pinball-machines.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Vipul Mistry)</author><thr:total>0</thr:total></item></channel></rss>
