In my childhood, there are only a few computer games like Pac-man, Mario, Contra, Road rash, etc. I think that is the beginning of the game market. There are few computer gaming centers which offer games for a buck. Later the TV videogames and handheld videogames became craze for the young children. They too did well. In the 2000’s the gaming industry changed with the graphics, designs that are developed with new software’s. Many interactive games came in to market that run on the PC. After a few years, LCD big flat screens came into market, which changed the complete gaming experience. The companies like Sony, Nintendo, and Microsoft developed their own gaming devices. Sony named them as Play stations, Nintendo named as Wii, and Microsoft named as Xbox. Names are different but their main objective is to taste he game lovers with different flavors. Gradually the competition in the gaming market is increasing and that results in developing of new game technologies. These gaming consoles include both wired and wireless controllers for the players.
