Mario And Luigi Are Now Online


Image : http://www.flickr.com


Mario and Luigi are one of the best games ever invented back in the eighties and it's still a great game to this day. It use to be that you can only find these two adventurous brothers on Nintendo systems, but today you can find Mario and Luigi online games all over the internet. It's great that you can play the same game that first developed back in the eighties. Don't get me wrong the new games are fun, but nothing compares to the first game.

I use to play Mario and Luigi all of the time with my brother when we were younger. And about six months ago I was searching for a game online and came across Mario and Luigi online. I felt like a little kid again, and my three kids and me played this game for hours. They were so excited to find a game that I had when I was little. It was exactly the same as the traditional video games. I truly felt like I was a kid again myself, which is always a great feeling.

Mario and Luigi online games are great to play on the computer. The graphics are much better then they were but it's still the same game that it always was. The reason is that they recreated it and the graphic cards that computers have now only make every little detail much more visible.

Online games have nearly every game that you can possibly imagine. Besides just Mario and Luigi. You can find Tetris, which is another one of my personal favorites. Some of the other games that you can expect to find will be Pac Man, and Streetfighter, and hundreds of others to choose from. There are literally hours of fun that you will have playing the games. You can even find some of the classic arcade games that you played in the arcade when you were a child as well.

If you want to find Mario and Luigi online games then all you have to do is perform a quick search on one of the major search engines such as google or yahoo, and you will have no problem finding a ton of different websites that have it. It really is that simple. And you will soon be having the time of your life especially if you were playing this game when you were a kid back in the eighties.

[HD] SC2 - FFA - [Game 18] - Part 1 of 2

Most people dont read this and will post a comment before ever seeing this, but I'll give it a shot anyway. I only had time to play one game today and I lost all my other replays because of the new computer. So, while it isnt the best game I just wanted to let everyone know where I'm at and I plan to upload videos much more constantly than my current rate. Just been busy! Lots of stuff in the works :).

Splinter Cell Speed Run Part 3 - Defense Ministry

This is a speed run for Splinter Cell. This is the PC version. I did not do this speed run. I got it from www.speeddemosarchive.com. I got it for all those Splinter Cell fans out there, and non-fans alike. So please don't accuse me of copyright infringement, or plagurism. Enjoy. Best time on PC version: Hard mode 1:35:00 by Jeff 'Lord Revan' Richardson on 16.09.05. Author's comments: This is my third speed run. I did two Kotor speed runs and felt like moving on to something different. Splinter Cell is a game that I absolutely love. I got it free with my video card and loved it ever since. This is a straight speed run. I don't try to avoid alarms, except where necessary. I looked at the run for the playstation that was up, but I found that there was little I could learn form it. The levels are quite different and he did a no alarm run. Level One: Training. This is an annoying level that is presents little speed running opportunities. The only real trick is jumping off the platform. The rest is just memorizing what you can get away with. Level Two: Police Station. Pretty easy level. Hardest part is the two guards talking to the drunk. I got really lucking with the shooting. Most of my kills were with one shot. Worst part was hooting that damn camera. It took me fice shots to do it. I can't believe I missed the guy at the computer. That never happened before, but it led to a more exciting finish with me having to kill the two guys in the next room. Level Three: Defense ...

Computer Games Lagging? What to Do to Speed Up Games That Lag


Image : http://www.flickr.com


Computer games are extremely popular, but having a game that lags is not only annoying but can cost you many hours of playing time. Games are great but only when they run as smoothly as possible, which makes it vital you're able to get your games running without any lag. Here's how...

In the gaming world, "lag" is characterized by having the screen jolting and the action of the game being disrupted by your computer having to take longer to process the various actions that the game has. Lag comes in two forms - the first is "Internet lag" and the second is "graphics lag".

Internet lag is when you play a game online and it does not run very fast. This is nothing to do with your computer, but is all down to the speed at which your game is receiving data from the Internet. If your Internet connection is slow, it will take longer to get the information for the game from the server and will consequently jolt as it updates slowly. This is only fixed by making your Internet connection faster.

The other type of lag is "graphics lag" where the game will become extremely difficult to play even in single-player mode. This is caused by your computer taking longer to process the actions & graphics that the game needs to run, which makes it appear to run slow. It's like having a car that stalls, making the game appear to run slow and lag.

To fix this problem, you need to fix the problems that cause the lag in the first place. And most of the time, a game runs slowly because it is unable to process the settings that it needs to run. Every game now has 1,000's of settings that it needs to read each time you play it, and it's often the case that many of these settings become damaged or corrupted, and are saved in the wrong way. This makes the game struggle to read the settings it needs, slowing it down and causing the lag.

The settings that games need are stored in the 'registry' of your computer, which is a central database that keeps all the settings of your computer. In order to fix most cases of game-lag, you just need to fix all the damaged settings that are causing the game to run slow. And that can be done by using a 'registry cleaner'. A registry cleaner is a software tool that scans through the settings on your PC and fixes any of the damages ones that are causing problems. By using a registry cleaner which works to fix all the damaged game settings on your PC, you can actually make your game run extremely smoothly again.

Computer Games Continue To Increase In Popularity


Image : http://www.flickr.com


Computer games are enjoyed just as much by adults as they are by children. Computer games are not just for pleasure but they can also teach you to think clearly and make quick decisions. The computer game is usually sold on standard storage media, such as compact discs, DVD, and floppy disks. Computer games are available for the home PC or can be played in different forms at Amusement arcades and many Corner stores.

Learning With Computers

Computers have the potential to address the requirements of a wide range of learning styles, and sometimes many needs can be accommodated within a single computer game program. Computer games allow you to step into their virtual worlds, to become part of the events that are taking place within the game. Computer games offer the pleasure of mastery, both visual and intellectual. Computer software today is not really that highly priced compared to other forms of common entertainment. Learning can sometimes become boring and repetitive but by using computer games to help with the learning process the attention span can be captured and maintained for many people including children.

Computer Games

Games are a fundamental part of human existence. There are many areas of computer gaming available for example, gambling, fantasy role playing and war games. Games played on home computers may utilize a joystick, keyboard or game pad (usually in some combination with each other). A broadband connection to the internet is very common in most households and allows game players to interact in multi player games with others across the world as though they are sitting next to each other in the same room. Games are objectively unreal in that they do not physically re create the situations they represent, yet they are subjectively real to the player.

Playing Games

Computer games are also now adult entertainment, and we shouldn't actually be surprised that adults want the same sort of things out of games as they do out of movies. Computer games are continually pushing the envelope of a computer's capabilities so to create a computer that handles them with ease hits a high mark. As technology increases and better computer hardware is made, the computer game programmers are able to build even more life like games to entertain the masses. Now that PCs can easily handle full-motion video, nearly every modern computer game is structured into levels punctuated by cinematic interludes. The game is wrapped in a story, and the reward for successfully realizing the game goals is that you get to see more of the story unfold.

Playing chess will make you better at strategic decisions, while playing football will keep you fit. Playing video games can keep your mind active and is fun whilst helping you develop and improve hand to eye co-ordination and quick decision making skills. These skills are very useful in life and are used in many different situations we encounter in day to day life. There is a massive choice of computer games on the market today, so no matter what your taste, there will be a computer game for you.

Learn How to Fly Playing Computer Flight Simulator Games


Image : http://www.flickr.com


Computer flight simulator games have come a long way since Bill Gates put his money where his fascination with flight was and bankrolled the ACES studio. Flight simulation games have always been at the forefront of gaming technology thanks in part to ACES but mostly to the military. These days, when people in Nevada are flying war theater drones over Iraq in real time, the line between simulation and reality has become even more blurred.

But most people just want to have fun with a more serious game without any violence. And computer flight simulator games are perfect for this. Whether you are a novice just wanting to try out flying a plane, or are more experienced and want to hone your skills or try out some dangerous maneuvers, a flight simulator game is a great pastime. And it is only getting better; graphics have become so realistic and features so varied.

The better computer flight simulator games are so realistic that they are used for training new pilots and for re-training practicing pilots. The basics have not changed much. But the improvements in accessories, sights, and sounds have totally transformed how exciting the games are.

For instance, newer computer flight simulator games can network through a server and enable you fly with your friends. You can connect up a series of screens to expand your flying view up to a complete surround or have multiple views of different parts of the game. You can create your own sights, planes, airports and sounds.

A good flight simulator game will have animated, photo-realistic cockpits. So, for instance, if the airport you are in has a slight slope you will feel that when you release the brakes. Or if the instrumentation has a slight lag in response (as it does quite noticeably in certain aircraft), then the cockpit controls in computer flight simulator games will reflect this. Instrument and system failures will also be mirror-images of the real thing.

The range of aircraft and landing options in the fleet is another difference in later generation computer flight simulator games. Planes, from vintage to next-gen, should be available, but also helicopters, gliders, and other exotic aircraft like ornithopters and zeppelins should be options. Air-to-air refueling and aircraft landing should be some of the advanced skill options available.

Scenery is a key factor in creating and maintaining realism in computer flight simulator games. Whether it is topography, infrastructure, or astronomy, they all need to be flawlessly detailed and seamlessly animated. The impact of fog or sun, day or night, wind or blizzard should be detailed in the flying view.

Time synchronization is another feature to look out for - wherever you are in the world virtually, the game reflects the actual, real-time of your location. This kind of verisimilitude is what makes flight simulation such an addictive game.

The ability to record and playback is another feature that should be standard. The realism of the flight simulator game enhances the fun side of it. But an added bonus is that you are really learning to fly. You are developing a skill that, with a couple of further steps, can be applied to real aircraft as well. And the capability of record and playback allows you to make and learn from mistakes.

Portal - Complete Game Speedrun (2/2)

I recommend checking out my NEW much faster version of this! www.youtube.com Part 1: www.youtube.com This is my complete, non-tool assisted, no cheating, speed run for Portal! It took forever to finally get it right so I hope you enjoy watching it! Final time (minus loading screens and elevators) is 14 minutes and 45 seconds, with a little more optimizing it might be possible to get it down to 14 minutes. Normally I don't do speedruns for modern games, but since this is one of my favorite games of 2007, I thought it deserved its own speedrun. Portal is a single-player, first-person puzzle game created by Valve as part of "The Orange Box" in September 2007 for Windows XP, Xbox 360, and the Playstation 3. In the game, which takes place in the Half-Life universe, you play the role of a female test subject named "Chell" for a company called Aperture Science. During the course of the game you go through a series of progressively more challenging test courses, the ultimate goal to reach the exit elevator in each. In each level you are guided (and taunted) by a computer AI called GLaDOS, which is apparently the only "sentient" being in the facility. To accomplish your tasks you get to use a "portal gun" which allows you to create two inter-spatial portals between planar surfaces. The portal gun creates two "end point portals" a red/orange one and a blue one. Anything entering one portal will exit through the other. If subsequent portals are created, the previously created portal ...
