Multiplayer Games


Videogaming is often thought of as a solitary pursuit but in fact it is much more social than people think. A key feature of many games is the multiplayer aspect, in fact one of the biggest selling points of the Nintendo DS was its ability to play wirelessly against other people.

The same is true of the Sony PSP which also allows wireless and online play.

Online multiplayer games are also hugely popular with PC game players, games such as World of Warcraft have over 5 million subscribers. In todays Guardian Aleks Krotoski wrote a very interesting article about the community and players in the virtual world of Azeroth.
