There was a time when people would rave about 2-D arcade games such as Pac Man, Pong, and Space Invaders. Since then, the gaming industry has turned itself into a moneymaking behemoth, and has connected itself to other industries as well such as music, merchandise, and advertising. Video games nowadays come in different forms and genres, and one of the most exciting types of gaming is through computer networking.

Playing with LAN

Gamers of all ages have enjoyed video games through the magic of a local area network. This connects a series of computers together, and enables them to share information. Through LAN, players are able to link their games together, and can play multiplayer games battling each other, and even team up. Some of these games come in the form of first person shooters where the players can be a team of S.W.A.T. officers, a military group, secret agents, interstellar soldiers, and the list goes on. A lot of other genres are also present and make great games because of LAN capabilities.

The rise of MMORPG

Massively multiplayer online role-playing games have been on of the more popular type of games lately. These are your usual role-playing games where you control a particular character, start out with menial equipment, and do a lot of quest in order to become stronger and gain money. MMORPGs have taken this even further. Because of the Internet, players are now able to interact with each other in a virtual environment. In the game, players may choose to trade equipment, help each other with quests, battle each other, and fight monsters side-by-side.

Some games of this genre allow the players to have their own professions so that they can earn the currency of the "world" that they are in (it's usually gold and silver). These games have become so addictive, because there are so many things that you can do in the games. The interactive world that you are playing in can be so big, that traveling from one place to another could take you a long time. Some gamers have been so addicted that there even has been a story of a guy that was divorced by his wife because of his MMORPG addiction. Well, as long as you are a responsible individual then there should be no problem at all with playing these types of games.

Virtual items

People have become so serious when it comes to these MMORPGs, that it has even come to the point of them buying items used inside the game and using real money. Some would spend hundreds of dollars to acquire items, or even strong characters. There are particular websites where you can auction such items. There are some cases where this is outlawed because you don't actually buy a tangible item.

Computer networking has made the possibilities of gaming endless. There are countless more innovations to come, and who knows what the next trend might be. It's a great thing that technology such as the Internet and local area networks are able to bring us better entertainment.

Comm Check... $13.99 On February 1, 2003, the unthinkable happened. The space shuttle Columbia disintegrated 37 miles above Texas, seven brave astronauts were killed and America's space program, always an eyeblink from disaster, suffered its second catastrophic in-flight failure. Unlike the Challenger disaster 17 years earlier, Columbia's destruction left the nation one failure away from the potential abandonment of human space exploration. Media coverage in the immediate aftermath focused on the possible cause of the disaster, and on the nation's grief. But the full human story, and the shocking details of NASA's crucial mistakes, have never been told -- until now. Based on dozens of exclusive interviews, never-before-published documents and recordings of key meetings obtained by the authors, Comm Check takes the reader inside the conference rooms and offices where NASA's best and brightest managed the nation's multi-billion-dollar shuttle program -- and where they failed to recognize the signs of an impending disaster. It is the story of a space program pushed to the brink of failure by relentless political pressure, shrinking budgets and flawed decision making. The independent investigation into the disaster uncovered why Columbia broke apart in the sky above Texas. Comm Check brings that story to life with the human drama behind the tragedy. Michael Cabbage and William Harwood, two of America's most respected space journalists, are veterans of all but a handful of NASA's 113 shuttle missions. Tapping a network of sources and bringing a combined three decades of experience to bear, the authors provide a rare glimpse into NASA's inner circles, chronicling the agency's most devastating failure and the challenges that face NASA as it struggles to return America to space.
