Imidlalo yevidiyo inokukuLungela
Izigidi zabantu baseMelika ziyayonwabela imidlalo yevidiyo-ukukhawulezisa i-adrenaline, ubuqabane, ukhuphiswano, kunye nethuba lokuba ngumninimzi owoyisayo, ubuncinci kwilizwe elibonakalayo.
Iindaba ezimnandi kukuba abantu baseMelika akufuneki baphule i-bhanki ukuze badlale imidlalo yevidiyo abayithandayo. I-GameTap ye-Turner yoSasazo yeNkqubo yenye yeendlela zamva kunye nezona zikhulu kakhulu zabathengi zokufumana umdlalo wabo kunye namava azo zonke izinto ezilungileyo malunga nemidlalo. Eyokuqala yohlobo lwayo lothungelwano lokuzonwabisa olubanzi, iGameTap (www.gametap.com) ibonelela ngeyona midlalo mikhulu kunayo yonke kumaqonga amaninzi ngexabiso elifikelelekayo le- $ 14.95 ngenyanga.
‘U-Turner wenza i-GameTap kuba bafuna ukuba abadlali be-gamers babe nemidlalo eyahlukeneyo-i-vault-evumela ukuba bafumane zonke iintlobo zemincili kubandakanya ukudlala indima, isenzo kunye nemidlalo yephazili, utshilo uStuart Snyder, Umphathi Jikelele weGameTap.
Kodwa ukongeza kulonwabo, ngaba ukudlala le midlalo kungakukhuthaza ukuphucula ngokwakho? Bambelela kubalawuli bakho: abanye abaphandi kunye nabagxeki kwezentlalo ngoku baphikisa ukuba ividiyo yokudlala ineempawu zayo ezilungileyo. Inokukhawulezisa ukucinga, iphucule amandla engqondo kunye nokunciphisa ubundlobongela. Ngelixa kungekho mntu uphikisayo ngokutya iiyure ezingama-24 kwimidlalo yevidiyo, uninzi lwababukeli ngoku lubona amaxabiso afihliweyo.
Cinga ngophando olwenziwe kwiDyunivesithi yaseRochester eNew York, eyagqiba ukuba abantu abadala abancinci abadlala imidlalo yevidiyo banokuyiphucula ‘ingqalelo yabo yevidiyo.’ Kuvavanyo olunye, umzekelo, izifundo zovavanyo zacelwa ukuba zikhawuleze zichaze ukuba ingaba imeko-yesikwere okanye idayimani-yavela kwenye yamakhonkco amathandathu. abadlali bevidiyo baphume phezulu. abaphandi bathi imidlalo yevidiyo inyanzela abadlali ngaxeshanye benze imisebenzi eyahlukeneyo, njengokukhangela kunye nokulandelela iintshaba, kunye nokuphepha ukwenzakala. Ezo zakhono zokudlala umdlalo zinokuguqulela kwizakhono ezibonakalayo ngokubanzi ezisebenza kubomi bemihla ngemihla.
Ngamanye amaxesha sicinga ngenkcubeko ethandwayo njengokuzonwabisa nje, kodwa akukho nto ingenziwanga malunga nemidlalo yevidiyo-zezona zinto zinomdla kakhulu kwezolonwabo, ‘utshilo uSnyder. ‘Ukuba abasebenzi beGameTap abagqithisileyo benza nantoni na ebonisa ukuba imidlalo yevidiyo iyindlela elungileyo yokufunda indlela yokucinga ngeenyawo zakho.’
Imidlalo yokulinganisa, apho abadlali bayila yonke into ukusuka kwii-roller coasters ukuya ezixekweni, banokwenza abantwana babe nomdla kubunjineli boomatshini nakwisicwangciso sedolophu. Wabhala umbhali uSteven Johnson: ‘Umtshana wam ebengalala kwimizuzwana emihlanu ukuba uthe wamphosa kwigumbi lokufundela lasezidolophini, kodwa ngandlela thile iyure yokudlala’ iSim City ‘yamfundisa ukuba amazinga aphezulu erhafu kwiindawo zorhwebo angaluthintela uphuhliso.’
UJohnson, umbhali wayo ‘Yonke into embi ilungile kuwe: Njani inkcubeko yanamhlanje isenza ukuba sibe nobukrelekrele,’ uye waba ngumkhuseli obalaseleyo wemidlalo yevidiyo. Uye wangena kwimpikiswano malunga nokuba imidlalo yevidiyo ikhuthaza ubundlongondlongo, esithi ulwaphulo-mthetho phakathi kolutsha nakwishumi elivisayo lwehlile phantse kwisibini kwisithathu ukusukela ngo-1975. Nokuba imidlalo yevidiyo ingathatha ikhredithi ngumcimbi wengxoxo-mpikiswano, kodwa uJohnson ucebisa ukuba imidlalo yevidiyo inokuthi yenza njengevalve yokhuseleko.
Imidlalo yevidiyo inokuba nexabiso lonyango. UMark Griffiths, unjingalwazi kwiYunivesithi yaseNottingham Trent eNgilane, uthi imidlalo yevidiyo inokunceda ukuphazamisa abantwana abenza unyango lwe-chemotherapy kunye nonyango lwe-sickle cell anemia. Imidlalo inokusebenza njengonyango lomzimba lokwenzakala kwengalo.
Njengabaphandi abaninzi, iGriffiths ikhuthaza ukumodareyitha kumdlalo wokudlala. umdlalo weTap kaSnyder uyavuma. ‘KwiGameTap, siyayithanda imidlalo, singene kuyo, kwaye sinamakhulu esinokukhetha kuwo. Kodwa siyazi ukubaluleka kokubeka isilawuli phantsi. Umhlaba oqinisekileyo ungonwaba, kodwa akukho nto ingena endaweni yento yokwenyani.
