According to a lot of people in the gaming community, the PC is arguably the most powerful gaming setup there is. It is very easy to set up,has room for expandable storage, and has richer gameplay. So it is only natural that a lot of people want in on the action. Here are some of the most important tips when it comes to gaming.

Steam

Steam is a software tool that helps gamers get everything in a game as soon as it arrives. It is a digital distribution software that keeps all your software, automatically updstes the game, in-game voice chat and also has community features like instant messaging.

Reddit

If you missed a sale of Steam online or if you are simply trying to get some excellent PC game deals, Reddit might be a good place to start looking. The subreddit r/gamedeals is highly active and always has some discount on for CD deals from other sites that you would not have possibly found elsewhere.

Don’t Rush Into Buying A Game

If it is not absolutely urgent, the best thing you can do is second guess. Yes, think twice before installing a game, because they are pretty much a luxury. Either wait for a Steam sale, and sometimes even that can seem disappointing with some games being completely worthless for the money.

Refund

Steam recently introduced the Steam Refunds option where players can now get a refund of their money if they do not like the game, or if it does not work properly. However, it is difficult to get a refund if the game has been played for more than 2 hours, so check out the game and if it isn’t for you, immediately request a refund.

Broaden Your Horizons

Steam is not the only place you can go to get help with purchasing games or getting amazing deals on them: there are several others as well. For instance, Good Old Games, a subsidiary of CDProjekt, is one of the best websites out there for this, offering free DRM games.

Online Bundles

A great way to get discounts for a game is buying online Bundles. There are several websites like Humble Bundle and Bundle Stars that offer a lot of games in bulk.

Get Rid Of Unwanted Clutter

Keep the insides of the PC clean by using blowing air into it with the help of an instrument. If you use your breath to blow air, it may lead to moisture in the circuitry and do not vacuum inside, because it can lead to the development of static.

 Get Up From Time To Time

It may be enthralling to keep gaming, especially if you just got a game and are trying to complete it as fast as you can. However, it is important to get up and move from time to time because sitting for long periods of time can have long term side effects like back pain, osteoporosis, heart diseases etc.

Gaming on a PC, XBox or a similar console has been the norm of gaming for a while now. Console gaming has slowly been replacing physical games like football and basketball for the past decade now, and with the evolution of these consoles, the more interesting they have become. Better graphics, better gameplay and better consoles means a much better experience. However some people find it difficult to start gaming, just because they believe it isn’t their cup of tea. Here are a few tips and tricks to help your gameplay.

Focus is Key

Dedication is the key when it comes to gaming. The more dedicated you are and the harder you play the game, the better you get at it eventually. Just like any other physical game, it takes time to master a video game: it is simply a matter of fact. If the player has a specific role in the game, it is best to keep at it with full determination rather than casually playing. The player needs to focus on what they need to get good at and try to achieve it.

Practice With Good Players

This is something that comes naturally with keeping good focus. You need to understand that playing against stronger opponents is the only way you can get better. If you keep playing against newbies or in-game bots, you will never get better, because there is simply no challenge. In games like Call of Duty and Counter Strike, there is even a mode that lets you play with only real players and it gets more difficult with each level: because ultimately your gaming speed is essentially a faster more responsive muscle memory.

Learn All The Roles In The Game But Just Enough

Even if you are trying to master a game, try to play the game in a different light. If you are playing a Role Playing Game like League of Legends, choose between the characters. Play with the character, understand it and feel what it is like. Only if you understand the strengths and weaknesses of the characters can you beat a person playing with the same character.

Tutorials

Watching a lot of tutorials for games can actually be a very good way of getting to know how good a person can get. There are thousands of youtubers and Twitch gamers who stream their games live, so try to watch their gameplay and understand how the absolute pros of the game are playing.

Good Health

If your health is bad while you are gaming, it will be difficult to focus and less focus means that you will probably be less attentive and get defeated. So make sure that you are in perfect health while gaming.

The smartphone market is an ever evolving one, coming up with extreme phones like the Samsung Galaxy Fold that is a folding phone, the LG Wing that is T shaped and the Asus Zenfone 6, which had a swivel camera. However, apart from the experimental phones, there are also gaming phones that are designed just for gaming. So that means that the market has recognised that mobile gaming is on the rise and is not just a niche segment. Therefore, here are some smartphone gaming tips that can help the user.

Has it ever happened that you were almost about to win a game but lost because the game was interrupted by a call? This can be very annoying and can potentially even cost you your game. This is where the DND Mode comes in. Every phone has this setting, and it allows no messages and voice or video calls. DND mode also has a setting where only important messages and calls come through while the rest are blocked. To turn on the DND mode, pull down the quick access bar, tap on Do Not Disturb Icon. If the icon is not present in the quick access bar, turn it on manually in Settings.

Background App Usage

Smartphones nowadays can multitask with much ease as compared to smartphones from even 4 years ago. However multitasking during gaming is a very bad idea.

Games like Call of Duty Mobile, Playerunknown’s BattleGrounds, Fortnite, etc are heavy RAM consumers and therefore, multitasking while playing those games can make the game experience sluggish and not fun at all. If you have low RAM, it is advised to clear background apps that can slow down the phone’s performance. Even high end phones can stutter sometimes when running at maxed out settings. To clear the apps from RAM, simply open the multitasking window and hit clear apps, but it can vary from phone to phone and from model to model.

Customize Controls

Each gamer has their preferences. Some gamers prefer a well organised layout of buttons, and some gamers prefer a randomly assorted and yet easily accessible control panel. So a single uniform set of controls can be detrimental to the performance of the gamer. Popular games like Call of Duty Mobile, Playerunknown’s Battlegrounds, Asphalt 9, etc have customisable controls. The controls can be adjusted by using the in-game settings menu. You can even tweak the camera angles, sensitivity, audio and other levels.

Game Controller

There are devices that can be used as controllers for mobile phones. The main advantage of these is that game controllers have physical buttons that can be mapped to perform a specific task in a specific game.
