Computer Games
Computer games are my passion from a very young age. I started off by playing a usual Television interfacing video game console which was usually available at that time around the early 2000’s. Computers were just getting popular at that time and it was a major expensive thing to buy at that, which we could not afford. I discovered that I had a passion for gaming from the moment I laid my hands on the video game console box. I bought a lot of games and I played every single day. The gaming platform slowly transitioned from the cassette video games to computer video games after I bought my first computer. Needless to say, the games on the PC platform were just incredible. The graphics were fantastic, the gameplay was smooth and there were a wide variety of games in a multitude of genres. It engrossed me more and I began dedicating more time to it.
I began researching about various online portals and forums for gamers and I joined in several of those forums. The discussions going on in these forums were informative and the people involved in these talks were highly experienced and professional gamers. I began following several of these gamers and I kept myself updated on their progress and their activities regularly. They became my virtual guides. I familiarized myself with a particular type of hand held controller which I was comfortable in using. I did not try my hand in other controllers once I knew that one type of controller was exceptional and it suited me to a great extent. This was a good move on my part since trying out many controllers would have hindered my progress.
I began entering the various gaming tournaments held around the clock and I began preparing for it. The competitive spirit slowly rose in me and I began practicing
even more harder. I wanted to win every tournament which I entered and with that outcome in my mind I practiced hard on my skills. Counter Strike was the most popular game which was held at every tournament and hence I began perfecting it. There were no specific resources which I used to hone my skills. It was just practice. After failing to win my first few tournaments I slowly progressed my way to the finals in the remaining tournaments which I entered and I was able to win quite a few tournaments. Now I am gaming at the international level and my level of mastery of the game in which I am at now can be attributed to my hard work and practice and also to the guidance which I received from the various online gaming portals and forums.
