Who always see their guy friends and family members in front of the computer to play online games?
I remember how the boys in our group would always disappear to play online games. They know how the girls would complain every time they would mention that they are going to play. So whenever we all hang out, they would tease us that they would rather play than go out with the girls.
Our guy friends love playing Defense of the Ancients, Counter Strike and other war games. One of my girl friends and I tried it once and we really never enjoyed it. Hey, I know of some other girls too who enjoy this kind of games but it's not really my thing.
Most of the people I know think that if you tell them you're playing an online game, it's the usual war games. No, it's not all about that. There was one time, my friend called me up and I was taking a long time before I could answer because I was in the middle of a game and would not want to just pause it. My mom told my friend that the reason I took a long time is because I was playing an online game. And he suddenly assumed that it was one war game that I was playing. But he guessed it wrong.
I love playing games; not the war / fight games. I love playing the other online games from Big Fish, Game House, Play First and Shockwave. I am fond of the games being featured there especially hidden objects, time management and strategy games.
I think that this addiction started with Diner Dash. I really love playing those kind of games and I even influenced my sisters to play that game too and they loved it as well.
Another great game was the Feeding Frenzy. When my nephew was younger than he is right now (take note: he is 7 years old now), he really loves looking at fish. So I told his dad about it and they have purchased the game for him. He was really thrilled and told his grandma about the game. And yes, even grandma is playing it now. It's really fun when the fish gets bigger and you get to eat more fish, and you could actually learn some facts about fish in between the levels.
Before I only get to play the word games like the popular Text Twist where you could scramble the letters and form words. Brick games were also popular back then. And now, there are really a lot of online games found in the Internet. It's a good thing that you can be able to try out the game first, for an hour, before purchasing the game. Hey, you wouldn't want to purchase some crappy games, right?
