In the world, there are several kinds of computer games, but the most famous computer games can become the e-sport. According to the July 2017 Los Angeles Times, some of the computer games become the most famous e-sport games.
First the most famous e-sport is “League of Legends”. This is a dota games and it’s the kind which is a Multiplayer online battle arena. This kind of game is similar to the action real-time strategy game, and therefore it is a kind of strategy video games.
In the game that player needs to control a single hero in one of two the teams. Each team has a main structure and three lanes; each lane is top middle and bottom, take note that there are two jungles. The games objective is to destroy other team’s main structure.
Each hero has different kind of ability, so player needs to learn different hero’s ability and find out the best hero. However, one cannot always depend on one hero in the game and thus needs to depend on other teammates; bottom-line is that in the game the player needs a strong reliable teamwork.
Second the famous game that is in the e-sport is the new game “ Overwatch”. This game is product of Blizzard and it is a First-person shooter game. The first-person shooter is just like its name, and here the player uses gun and other weapons in a first-person perspective. In the game, the player is usually based on what people usually see when out and about, so the player in this instance cannot see the body in the game, they can however only see the place with their own eyes. In the first person that might come from the viewpoint of the cockpit; however, there are still have many different games that use first-person perspective, such as, flight game.
Thirdly, this might not become the e-sport game, but it’s still famous with many players. The game is Minecraft; this game of Minecraft is called nonlinear gameplay. In the nonlinear gameplay, the player needs to face different challenges, and each player, might meet different challenges or even the same challenge. Here, different players may be played in a different order.
There are many games that use this kind of method to produce games. However, most games come from similar style and so there are two classifications for nonlinear gameplay. One is called Branching storyline: in this game, the player cannot change the story line and the end of story, so many gamers use linear structure to make their game more similar to the novel. The other one is called Visual novels: in the visual novels game, it will use different story to achieve a variety of ends for the game, and in this kind of game, that allow a player choose from different options.
In the first part that already talked about different kinds of computer games, but in this part I will talk about the new methods and how can people play computer games. There are very many new technologies in the world now, and as such some technology can use be in the computer games. The new technology use in computer games is Virtual reality.
Virtual reality is the new technology that is used in computer games, and again there are so many places that virtual reality can be used including to help students in learning. Even better is that there are some school use virtual reality in the class. Thus the telegraph January 2017, showed out some disadvantages and advantages of students use virtual reality in learning.
The reason why it’s difficult to use virtual reality in the class is the price. The price for each virtual reality is $ 637 each in 2016 and that is too expensive to the school buy for each student at least one device. When a student uses virtual reality, that student will find it easier to see and hear the things that can help make it easier to learn. This is because it is easier for children to learn new things by practice than write the notes.
Now that we know different kinds of computer games and the new technology use in computer game, it is therefore time to talk about the computer games and the kind of benefits they can bring to the children.
There are many benefits that children can get from computer games, and similarly, different kinds of computer games can give different kinds of benefits. In September 2015 BCC talked about three benefits that fit the computer games that I already talked about inclusive of Virtual reality.
The first benefit that children can get is motor skills. There are very many computer games that need motor skills, and now there are virtual reality uses in computer games that make the motor skill more like it is in the real world. There are many places that can use the virtual reality to put to practice student’s motor skill. For example, the player uses virtual reality to practice the tools used in the surgery and in the game the student the student will be better than the other, and similarly that student will do a better than other students in the reality.
The second benefit that children can get is visual ability, mostly in the first person shooter game. In the first person shooter or first person game, that player’s viewpoint is all that can be seen, so in the game, children can develop their visual ability. In the September 2015 BCC pointed out that the player who has played first person game’s visual ability is better than who do not play first person games
The last benefit that children get from the computer game is brain growth. The brain growth might be experienced in many instances, such as, social or make their brains relax. In the Nonlinear gameplay, there are many different kinds of end that players need to think more about the game and how it will go on, thinking more about it will or may help them develop their imagination.
