The Tech That Advances Gaming

One of the best things about being a gamer in 2013 is that there seems to be new technology coming out just about daily to improve the gaming experience. Of course, there will always be new games being released, and even newly launched websites devoted to the needs of regular gamers. But even beyond these basic advancements, there are plenty of exciting new technologies that can help avid gamers to diversify and enhance their experiences with their favorite games. Here are a few particularly noteworthy tech gadgets, concepts and programs that you may want to make use of.

Electronic Apps
By now, anyone with even the slightest interest in gaming is well aware that there are thousands upon thousands of electronic gaming apps available for the latest smart phones and tablets. However, in addition to the basic benefit of being able to download and play new games at the touch of as green, there are also gaming apps specifically designed to take greater gaming experiences on the go. For example, many popular console games and Internet gaming experiences have smaller app forms, which can help you to never be without your favourites.

File Sharing Services
With so much gaming activity geared toward the Internet these days, there is often increase emphasis on sharing certain aspects of games - screenshots, videos, and even articles and other media about new games, etc. Sometimes these files can be difficult to share via ordinary email or social media, which is why some gamers consider opting for an advanced file sharing service that allows them to send big files whenever necessary. This is simply one more way to connect with friends through gaming.

Online Gaming Communities
The concept of gaming online is by no means a new one. For many years now, everything from MMORPG games online to console Internet networks have been incredibly popular. However, these days there are even more ways to enjoy popular games in online communities. For example, video game e-commerce has become popular online, as entire communities watch live gaming events and occasionally bet on outcomes!

Xbox 720
Finally, there is the most basic and also most exciting form of tech advancement in gaming: new consoles. It has actually been some time before a truly innovative new console has been released on a wide scale (seeing as the Wii U at the end of 2012 made more of a ripple than wave in the market). This year, the next generation Xbox console, tentatively being referred to as the Xbox 720, will be released to fans, however, and could be a true game changer. What we know is that the 720 will feature a blu ray disc drive and the ability to record live television. But what it will really bring to gamers remains largely a mystery, and one that has us all excited.
