<div style="float:left;margin:5px;font-size:80%;"><img alt="3581667377 3c01ef0cc1 m Online Games   Flash Bingo" src="http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3625/3581667377_3c01ef0cc1_m.jpg" width="160" title="Online Games   Flash Bingo" /><br/> by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/39174196@N00/3581667377">fillito</a></div>
<p>Online games are becoming more and more popular. When the internet first arrived it was not long before online games technology became more advanced as users sought more ways to entertain themselves online. Initially, internet connections were slow and users were frustrated by a lack of game quality and ease at which they could download or play games online.</p>
<p>However, now that technology has moved forward, and with broadband penetration being some 79% in UK alone (Neilsen Netratings) people are finding games with more quality and greater ease of play, and are using them more often to pass away any spare time.</p>
<p><span id="more-66004"></span></p>
<p>Flash has proved to be one important technology that has helped drive the popularity of games online. It is a lightweight application that has become standard, allowing a game developer to offer medium to high complexity games. Designs, animation and application user interfaces are deployed immediately across all popular web browsers and platforms, providing a rich web experience.</p>
<p>Flash game sites are high in number and all provide a varied range of games to entice users to the site. Sports games, action games and adventure games but to name a few. And of course the most important element is that flash games are mostly free, and download time is minimal. In fact it is also possible that most flash games do no require a download, but can be played via the web site itself.</p>
<p>Games are a good way to pass away a few spare moments while at your computer. If you are at the office waiting for some work to arrive, or during a lunch break have a spare half an hour, then why not try downloading a flash game.</p>
<p>Flash is the technology that is also powering most online poker, casino and bingo games. One of the more popular flash games of the last year has proved to be online bingo with some $  2 billion USD wagered in 2006.</p>
<p>Parlay, the World&#8217;s leading bingo flash game supplier, provides a flash bingo game for over 40% of bingo operators across the globe. Its popular bingo product has many features which provide a good interactive experience for bingo players, while allowing them to play for free or for real cash money. It offers a 75 ball and a 90 number bingo game, with chat room interaction and many other features.</p>
<p>This flash bingo game can be found on many bingo network sites, like St Minver&#8217;s International Bingo Network. The advantage of this flash game is that is requires no download, and is free to join in.</p>
<p>Flash games are also a way of driving traffic to your website. How many times a week do we all receive a html link to a promotion which, when clicked, takes us to a flash game or flash video advertisement, promoting a new product or element of a website. These are called viral campaigns and are used by many search engine companies to entice people to a website.</p>
<p>Traditionally it was men who played online games the most. We all know the stereotypical young man sat at his computer for hours on end, joystick in hand, aiming to conquer whatever enemy the game can throw at him.</p>
<p>Well now web sites, and particularly gaming web sites, are proving more popular for women. Some 85% of players online are female, with women over the age of 40 spending 50% more time playing online games than men (recent AOL study). Perhaps this is due to the type of games that are available, or perhaps because women have more access to computers in their daily careers, undertaking more office or secretarial roles which tend to give sporadic moments of free time at the computer.</p>
<p>The versatility of flash is there to be seen, and with more advantages in technology, and more games like bingo targeting a female audience, the future for online games looks to be rosy.</p>

<div style="float:left;margin:5px;font-size:80%;"><img alt="5032403021 711012c6bf m Basketball Arcade Games" src="http://farm5.staticflickr.com/4126/5032403021_711012c6bf_m.jpg" width="160" title="Basketball Arcade Games" /><br/> by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/53046446@N07/5032403021">THQ Insider</a></div>
<p>When arcade games gained popularity in the 1970s, they were the traditional type like the first pinball games, Pac-Mac, Pong, and Space Invaders. However, over time, the creators of these games realized they had to innovate and improve constantly to retain the attention of their players. This led to them diversifying into games like the High Impact Football game series. This was a completely new format for arcade games. However, these games did not do as well as their ancestors. Perhaps players took time to adjust to them.</p>
<p>It was not until the release of basketball arcade games that this type of game really caught on. The first that really took the arcade games by storm was NBA Jam. This genre got noticed immediately with its release and became popular worldwide.</p>
<p><span id="more-65975"></span></p>
<p>NBA Jam was unique in a lot of ways. First of all it was more expensive than the other games, where finishing a game required no less than $  2. It was also the very first game that used real teams, real players with their real names, with the digitized version of these players playing the game on screen.</p>
<p>Playing the game was akin to watching a game on TV, only better, since here the game players could make control every move of their favourite basketball players. More so, one could defy gravity to make them do what a player wanted them to do. This has been one of the criticisms of the game, that it featured unrealistic effects, with the players flying as much as their heights to score a point. Fans of the game however maintained, that this was actually a great high.</p>
<p>However, the game continued to climb on the popularity charts and featured basketball greats of their times like Karl Malone, Chris Webber, Colbert Cheaney, Jeff Hornacek, David Robinson, Charles Oakley among others. After a time people discovered other features of the game like Easter eggs and other special features to be activated by use of buttons and joysticks.</p>
<p>The game saw many sequels and spin-offs, including the NBA Jam: Tournament Edition, NBA Jam Extreme of 1996 and even a 3D version of the game featuring a commentary. The other games in the line were NBA Hangtime and NBA Hangtime Extreme. A college version of the game, called College Slam was also introduced in 1995.</p>
<p>The huge success of basketball games also gave rise to other sports games, which centred on games like football and baseball.</p>

<div style="float:left;margin:5px;font-size:80%;"><img alt="51698189 f8a0d4ce42 m Mind Games!" src="http://farm1.staticflickr.com/32/51698189_f8a0d4ce42_m.jpg" width="160" title="Mind Games!" /><br/> by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/90505980@N00/51698189">darahgna</a></div>
<p> Have you ever been caught up in a thought that will not let<br />&#13;<br />
you out? Escape is not an option. What was a simple drip in<br />&#13;<br />
your pool of thoughts, quickly turned into an ocean of<br />&#13;<br />
tidal waves rolling into each, over and over again.This is<br />&#13;<br />
what it feels like to not have positive control over your<br />&#13;<br />
mind.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
Our minds often repeat hurtful thoughts or scenarios over<br />&#13;<br />
and over, even when we&#8217;d much rather let them go. If you<br />&#13;<br />
start really listening to your inner voice, you are<br />&#13;<br />
probably dwelling on the past, remembering how someone may<br />&#13;<br />
have let you down, or how much anger you still hold back<br />&#13;<br />
from being hurt. If you fear the challenges that are waiting<br />&#13;<br />
for you, or you are ashamed at where you are now in your<br />&#13;<br />
life as compared to where you had planned on being, these<br />&#13;<br />
fears will definitely be in line to play the mind game on<br />&#13;<br />
you. All of these insecure or hurtful emotions that you once<br />&#13;<br />
tucked away will come back to play when the game begins.<br />&#13;<br />
Only when they come back, you will not recognize them. This<br />&#13;<br />
is your first bad move. Now the mind game begins.</p>
<p><span id="more-65973"></span></p>
<p>&#13;<br />
The game is of the mind, to confuse you in your thought<br />&#13;<br />
process. When your mind is triggered even slightly by a<br />&#13;<br />
word, a picture, or even a look, what we want to do is to<br />&#13;<br />
think positive, nice, sweet and safe thoughts. If you have<br />&#13;<br />
the slightest opening in your mind, the game will begin. It<br />&#13;<br />
will take a thought and wait for your first emotional<br />&#13;<br />
weakness. Then it will twist that thought and magnify it so<br />&#13;<br />
that it feeds on that weakness and sends you into that ugly<br />&#13;<br />
world of negative thinking.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
You would give anything to shake off these negative<br />&#13;<br />
thoughts, but we all know so well that it&#8217;s easier said than<br />&#13;<br />
done. Instead, you struggle through your day feeling like<br />&#13;<br />
you are a freak and that if you do not get a grip on this<br />&#13;<br />
mind game, and soon , you will explode. All that you want,<br />&#13;<br />
is to be free of negative thoughts and be happy all the<br />&#13;<br />
time.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
You spend a lot of time thinking over negative feelings<br />&#13;<br />
and sulking over regrets and misfortunes. The worst part is<br />&#13;<br />
that the more you try to end this horrible game that twists<br />&#13;<br />
your brain so tight, the worse it gets. You will try to<br />&#13;<br />
avoid your hidden shames and worries, or drown them with<br />&#13;<br />
alcohol or drugs. All that happens when that little fix-it<br />&#13;<br />
ends, is that the mind game becomes stronger. New thoughts<br />&#13;<br />
continue, the game attacks again only to turn those thoughts<br />&#13;<br />
against you. You can feel them escalate into negative<br />&#13;<br />
scenarios in your mind, but at this point powerless. The<br />&#13;<br />
power of the game is winning and you are now in the<br />&#13;<br />
believing stage of the game. Your mind now believes your<br />&#13;<br />
negative thoughts. You are forced to react, and through this<br />&#13;<br />
reaction the mind game soars and takes over even further.<br />&#13;<br />
Now it not only controls you, but it has also taken control<br />&#13;<br />
of your entire world and whoever is in it at the time. You<br />&#13;<br />
collapse from the draining feeling of failure once again.<br />&#13;<br />
You feel that you will never be able to win this mind game.<br />&#13;<br />
You feel that you will be a pawn for the rest of your days<br />&#13;<br />
on earth. A doormat and a bug to stepped on over and over<br />&#13;<br />
again, because of your inability to gain strength and take<br />&#13;<br />
control of your positive mind. So why not just give in? Why<br />&#13;<br />
not just bow down whenever you fail to think positive<br />&#13;<br />
thoughts? Well, I will tell you why you do not want to do<br />&#13;<br />
that!</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
You are a human being with a heart and a brain. You were<br />&#13;<br />
given the ability to feel emotions. Emotions such as:<br />&#13;<br />
self-respect. self-esteem, humor, love, laughter, sexuality,<br />&#13;<br />
self-confidence, but most of all, you were given<br />&#13;<br />
intelligence and the will to survive. You were given the<br />&#13;<br />
gift of life. Those are the reasons to fight. How to fight,<br />&#13;<br />
is also right there in front of you.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
You are already aware of the mind game. Most of you have<br />&#13;<br />
played it so long that you should be the champions by now. I<br />&#13;<br />
have talked about habits many times and I will keep talking<br />&#13;<br />
about them. Through habits you can defeat many of those mind<br />&#13;<br />
games. Try to simplify your thoughts. The stronger the game<br />&#13;<br />
tries to twist them, the harder you work to shrink them.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
I read about an interesting way to look at this. Think of<br />&#13;<br />
your thoughts as a pop-up ad on your computer. You see it<br />&#13;<br />
and then you don`t. Or it pops up and you simply delete it<br />&#13;<br />
without giving it a second thought. Even if it was a<br />&#13;<br />
negative pop-up, you spend no time at all analyzing where it<br />&#13;<br />
came from, you simply carry on with what you were doing.<br />&#13;<br />
This is a good way to play, and win the game. Also another<br />&#13;<br />
way to play and win, is when your thought begins to twist<br />&#13;<br />
through the negative game, start to vocalize it. Sing it<br />&#13;<br />
quietly to yourself, or hum outloud. This will confuse the<br />&#13;<br />
game, and throw it off track. Immediately when you get a<br />&#13;<br />
thought that seems to be fair game, think of something very<br />&#13;<br />
funny or a very sad movie that made you cry. A very good<br />&#13;<br />
habit is to change your thought track. The game cannot keep<br />&#13;<br />
up when the track is jumped. Be aware that your mind is a<br />&#13;<br />
game field, but you have to play it in order to win. If you<br />&#13;<br />
do not play, you will lose by defeat. SAD!!! So my words to<br />&#13;<br />
you is this : KICK IT`S BUTT!!!!!!!</p>

<p>Article  by Helen Chapel</p>
<p>What are casual games?</p>
<p><span id="more-65950"></span></p>
<p>As it is written at the official website of Casual Games Association, they are &#8216;developed for the general public and families, casual games are video games that are fun and easy to learn and play They&#8217;re nonviolent, arcade-style games that involve puzzles, words, board and card games, game show and trivia.&#8217;</p>
<p>I would rather say these games are developed just for fun. A casual game player does not need much room at his/her PC, much time, much money or super abilities to play them. Statistics shows that it is over 200 million people play casual games each month over the Internet, and women make up 51,7% of casual game players. Usually casual games are played at lunch time or in the evening to make a break after working hours, or just during a day to relax and switch from a day routine. A casual game is an isle of rest and enjoyment for a housewife while her children are at school or sleeping, it is a tool which can entertain a teen while he/she is waiting friends or traveling, a casual game is a source of few minutes rest and silence at office. </p>
<p>Arcade, puzzle, word, action, and card casual games are the most popular today. Of course, we cannot say that these are the most popular casual games genres, as there is no precise classification of games genres. There is a great amount of different genre mixes existing in this field, that is why to describe a casual game one can say: it is a match-3 with hidden objects elements and mini game, for instance. </p>
<p>Casual games can be played on personal computer, cell telephones and others. A player may find his or her favorite game through the Internet and play online, buy and download it, or it can be a &#8220;free-to-try&#8221; game. Today there are many portals and ordinary website who distribute casual games. They can be official websites of the games developers or just affiliate websites. </p>
<p>Let me give you some examples of casual games. </p>
<p>Speaking about casual games types I would like to tell a few words about arcade games. A game with fast action where hand-eye coordination is the primary skill needed to beat the game.</p>
<p>An example of a good arcade game can be 3D animated game Chewsters, brought by <a target="_new" rel="nofollow" href="http://3drelax.com/">3D Relax</a>. The game of Chewsters is a funny casual game, in which a player needs to make groups of three or more aliens of the same color to make them disappear. The game features 50 original levels, each representing a real world city with a world famous skyline, with their real architecture and famous landmarks recreated in 3D. </p>
<p><a target="_new" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.3drelax.com/games/Caribbean_Riddle.html"> Caribbean Riddle </a> game from 3D Relax can be a spectacular example of match-three casual game with mini game. This is a love story about a poor journey man who fall in love with a girl of noble birth and who had to set sail to find a treasure. A player should be clever and quick to conquer all obstacles in the game. Save a fish from the carved golden cube and one more sea inhabitant will help a player to find the treasure! </p>
<p>These games are easy and pretty bobbish to play! You may find lots of awesome casual games through the Internet and I will tell you about them next time, but now I need to hurry up to play my beloved casual game out!

<p> Have you ever been caught up in a thought that will not let<br />&#13;<br />
you out? Escape is not an option. What was a simple drip in<br />&#13;<br />
your pool of thoughts, quickly turned into an ocean of<br />&#13;<br />
tidal waves rolling into each, over and over again.This is<br />&#13;<br />
what it feels like to not have positive control over your<br />&#13;<br />
mind.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
Our minds often repeat hurtful thoughts or scenarios over<br />&#13;<br />
and over, even when we&#8217;d much rather let them go. If you<br />&#13;<br />
start really listening to your inner voice, you are<br />&#13;<br />
probably dwelling on the past, remembering how someone may<br />&#13;<br />
have let you down, or how much anger you still hold back<br />&#13;<br />
from being hurt. If you fear the challenges that are waiting<br />&#13;<br />
for you, or you are ashamed at where you are now in your<br />&#13;<br />
life as compared to where you had planned on being, these<br />&#13;<br />
fears will definitely be in line to play the mind game on<br />&#13;<br />
you. All of these insecure or hurtful emotions that you once<br />&#13;<br />
tucked away will come back to play when the game begins.<br />&#13;<br />
Only when they come back, you will not recognize them. This<br />&#13;<br />
is your first bad move. Now the mind game begins.</p>
<p><span id="more-65934"></span></p>
<p>&#13;<br />
The game is of the mind, to confuse you in your thought<br />&#13;<br />
process. When your mind is triggered even slightly by a<br />&#13;<br />
word, a picture, or even a look, what we want to do is to<br />&#13;<br />
think positive, nice, sweet and safe thoughts. If you have<br />&#13;<br />
the slightest opening in your mind, the game will begin. It<br />&#13;<br />
will take a thought and wait for your first emotional<br />&#13;<br />
weakness. Then it will twist that thought and magnify it so<br />&#13;<br />
that it feeds on that weakness and sends you into that ugly<br />&#13;<br />
world of negative thinking.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
You would give anything to shake off these negative<br />&#13;<br />
thoughts, but we all know so well that it&#8217;s easier said than<br />&#13;<br />
done. Instead, you struggle through your day feeling like<br />&#13;<br />
you are a freak and that if you do not get a grip on this<br />&#13;<br />
mind game, and soon , you will explode. All that you want,<br />&#13;<br />
is to be free of negative thoughts and be happy all the<br />&#13;<br />
time.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
You spend a lot of time thinking over negative feelings<br />&#13;<br />
and sulking over regrets and misfortunes. The worst part is<br />&#13;<br />
that the more you try to end this horrible game that twists<br />&#13;<br />
your brain so tight, the worse it gets. You will try to<br />&#13;<br />
avoid your hidden shames and worries, or drown them with<br />&#13;<br />
alcohol or drugs. All that happens when that little fix-it<br />&#13;<br />
ends, is that the mind game becomes stronger. New thoughts<br />&#13;<br />
continue, the game attacks again only to turn those thoughts<br />&#13;<br />
against you. You can feel them escalate into negative<br />&#13;<br />
scenarios in your mind, but at this point powerless. The<br />&#13;<br />
power of the game is winning and you are now in the<br />&#13;<br />
believing stage of the game. Your mind now believes your<br />&#13;<br />
negative thoughts. You are forced to react, and through this<br />&#13;<br />
reaction the mind game soars and takes over even further.<br />&#13;<br />
Now it not only controls you, but it has also taken control<br />&#13;<br />
of your entire world and whoever is in it at the time. You<br />&#13;<br />
collapse from the draining feeling of failure once again.<br />&#13;<br />
You feel that you will never be able to win this mind game.<br />&#13;<br />
You feel that you will be a pawn for the rest of your days<br />&#13;<br />
on earth. A doormat and a bug to stepped on over and over<br />&#13;<br />
again, because of your inability to gain strength and take<br />&#13;<br />
control of your positive mind. So why not just give in? Why<br />&#13;<br />
not just bow down whenever you fail to think positive<br />&#13;<br />
thoughts? Well, I will tell you why you do not want to do<br />&#13;<br />
that!</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
You are a human being with a heart and a brain. You were<br />&#13;<br />
given the ability to feel emotions. Emotions such as:<br />&#13;<br />
self-respect. self-esteem, humor, love, laughter, sexuality,<br />&#13;<br />
self-confidence, but most of all, you were given<br />&#13;<br />
intelligence and the will to survive. You were given the<br />&#13;<br />
gift of life. Those are the reasons to fight. How to fight,<br />&#13;<br />
is also right there in front of you.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
You are already aware of the mind game. Most of you have<br />&#13;<br />
played it so long that you should be the champions by now. I<br />&#13;<br />
have talked about habits many times and I will keep talking<br />&#13;<br />
about them. Through habits you can defeat many of those mind<br />&#13;<br />
games. Try to simplify your thoughts. The stronger the game<br />&#13;<br />
tries to twist them, the harder you work to shrink them.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
I read about an interesting way to look at this. Think of<br />&#13;<br />
your thoughts as a pop-up ad on your computer. You see it<br />&#13;<br />
and then you don`t. Or it pops up and you simply delete it<br />&#13;<br />
without giving it a second thought. Even if it was a<br />&#13;<br />
negative pop-up, you spend no time at all analyzing where it<br />&#13;<br />
came from, you simply carry on with what you were doing.<br />&#13;<br />
This is a good way to play, and win the game. Also another<br />&#13;<br />
way to play and win, is when your thought begins to twist<br />&#13;<br />
through the negative game, start to vocalize it. Sing it<br />&#13;<br />
quietly to yourself, or hum outloud. This will confuse the<br />&#13;<br />
game, and throw it off track. Immediately when you get a<br />&#13;<br />
thought that seems to be fair game, think of something very<br />&#13;<br />
funny or a very sad movie that made you cry. A very good<br />&#13;<br />
habit is to change your thought track. The game cannot keep<br />&#13;<br />
up when the track is jumped. Be aware that your mind is a<br />&#13;<br />
game field, but you have to play it in order to win. If you<br />&#13;<br />
do not play, you will lose by defeat. SAD!!! So my words to<br />&#13;<br />
you is this : KICK IT`S BUTT!!!!!!!</p>
