Video Game

A video game is an electronic game that involves interaction with a user interface to generate visual feedback on a video device(a raster display device). 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 computers to small handheld devices. The input device used to manipulate video games is called a game controller. Early personal computer games often needed a keyboard for gameplay, or more commonly, required the user to buy a separate joystick with at least one button. Many modern computer games allow, or even require, the player to use a keyboard and mouse simultaneously.
