World of Warcraft unleashed itself to the audience in 1994. In 2001, the nintendo gamecube was released, a successor to nintendo's N64. The PS2 and the XBox offered entertainment only years before, satisfying millions of playors world wide with platform and 3 dimensional 1st player (fps) games.

The wii allows you to interact with the game by moving your body. With Wii console is favorite because players of all ages can benefit from the invention.

Several decades ago, we thought that flying was something only birds can do. Likewise, with a whole dynamic gaming world around you, the future of gaming is sure to evolve.

Nintendo DSs, iPod Touches and PSPs are all favorite mediums because they are so portable, allowing you to play your game anywhere. People are also screaming for better graphics. Video games are an escape from the real world. Only with better graphics can one create a digital world to emerge us into.

Video games are everywhere, on phones, music players, computers, consoles, etc. And now, companies are trying to make these games more accessible by allowing you to play any game on any screen by downloading the game from a database.

So there, video games are the future.
