Instructional: Starting to game

For those who are just starting to play video games here are some tips that may be of some use:

• First start by playing on what is comfortable for you.

There are many options you can choose from but the top 3 are Xbox, PlayStation and PC. Each of the options all have different controllers that fits everybody differently. Once you find what you are looking for the next is to find games that are allowed on that console and start playing. The following pictures show what you will play on for each console you choose.

Mouse and Keyboard for PC

• Next is to start practicing.

I’m sure you have heard the quote “practice makes perfect” and that still applies to video games. If you want to become better at a certain game the best way to do that is just practice. To practice you can play single player mode which is on most to all video games. This also means that most of them have a difficulty level and its best to start off on the easiest level and work your way up. Now of days most games have multiplayer mode which allows you to play online with people around the world. To become better at multiplayer is again practice and practice.

• Remembering it’s a video game

Video games are meant to challenge you so becoming frustrated and mad at the game will not make you better. Looking back at what you did and correcting your mistakes will help you become better. If you are playing to have fun I would only recommend play for about an hour of playing.

• Professional

If you want to become a professional it requires hours upon hours of practice and rewatching your own games to become the best you can be.

• Personalization

Everybody has their own style when it comes to gaming. Some people like having their equipment nice and clean with nothing on it and some people like to put some style into their equipment. You can get some cool stickers and decals from: Gaming Campus Shop
