WHAT IS VIDEO GAME.
A video game is an electronic game that involves interaction with a user
interface to generate visual feedback on a video device such as a TV screen or
computer monitor.
The word video in video game traditionally referred to a raster display
device, but as of the 2000s, it implies any type of display device that can
produce two- or three-dimensional images. Some theorists categorize video games
as an art form, but this designation is controversial.
The electronic systems used to play video games are known as platforms;
examples of these are personal computers and video game consoles.
These platforms range from large mainframe computers to small handheld
computing devices. Specialized video games such as arcade games, in which the
video game components are housed in a large, typically coin-operated chassis,
while common in the 1980s in video arcades, have gradually declined but still
exist in use due to the widespread availability of affordable home video game
consoles (e.g., PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Nintendo Wii U) and video games on
desktop and laptop computers and smartphones.
