Indiagames.com: A milestone in Indian Gaming

Gaming in a country like India, is like a Toyota Car in a middle-class family. On the other hand, Online Gaming in India. its like your dream date with Shahrukh Khan and Bipasa Basu. Now its gonna change.


Few years ago, not more than a bunch of people in our country knew what computer games were all about, and online gaming was too far from reality. But when computer games were in fashion, it were the kids in the age range of 6-16 yrs that showed the passion. Now a days - every single PC got alteast one game installed. Though at present days - gaming is not limited to that above age group anymore. Gaming is for everyone, and whoever is reading this review may not fall under that age group and might be one of them who loves to play games and be pampered.


But the sad part was - those games, were either borrowed from a friend, or was purchased in grey markets cause of the high prices for the originals. And so the prices against these games were low through piracy and yet they were giving the same level of gaming experience and entertainment that many couldn’t resist. So they encourage Piracy which was totally a wrong doing and its aganst the intregity of our country as well our morals.


Indiagames.com is the 1st of its kind in India, who came forward  against this. This company is indeed 1st of its kind, who tied up with top gaming companies(Eidos, Attari, PlayFirst, and more.) and top ISPs, (BSNL, MTNL, Airtel, Tata Indicom and more.) providing a new way of gaming experience. Their archives consists of more than 100s gaming titles. from Chessmaster to Tomb Raider. and Fifa are only few. Indiagames.com is also the only online provider of games, for which you don’t have to worry about game licensing. All the games are pre-owned by the company which everyone can play online for a mere monthly charge of Rs 200.00. That is indeed a good news for those people who actually bought those pirated games in the market at Rs 200 or more. that now they can actually play 100s of games unlimited anytime and anywhere.


Lets come to the Points:


*Service & Support: 5 out of 5


*Indiagames.com is pretty good when it comes to customer service. They send an acknowledgement email telling you to wait for their reply. And in not more than 12 hrs, someone do comes to your rescue with any website related issues you might have. That’s what I called Amazing! when its more than 10000 members in this site already.



Information Depth: 5 out of 5


*The variety of informations regarding games in their website is simply amazing. A member can browse their site at ease with only few clicks and no sweat. Even before registering with indiagames.com - one can actually see all the games available for play. So one can browse the long list and see if their favorite games are there before they can register. I am sure your game is in there somewhere. or might be coming soon:)



Content Timeliness: 5 out of 5


*The contents are simply breath taking. For those who likes games, its a Dream World right at your desktop. A member can choose from a variety of games to play anytime of the day or night . whether its an action game like tomb raider or war strategy game like Age of Empire. Its all there in just few clicks away. Yet some imformations requires a good knowledge of computers, like every game got a specific system requirement - which one must follow to be able to play that game on their PC.



Design/Usability: 4 out of 5


*The web design is pretty cool. Its soothing Red colored theme is neat and well maintained. Unlike other websites - indiagames.com actually does says what it does when you lands on their main page. So there is no hidden surprise. At a mere monthly fee of Rs 200 for unlimited games, its not a bad bargain at all. Yet one always crave for more, that’s human nature. So just download the games you want to play and your ON.



Website Load Time: 4 out of 5


*Its FAST! Believe me - try it for yourself. Unlike lots of other gaming portals in the world wide web, this website actually got a cool look yet without any hidden codes or popups that might cause any harm to your PC. Though with already a member list reaching more than 10000 members, its pretty heavy on the system now and again. But that’s worth it - providing you are given a chance to have a Entertainment Unit right out off your computer.


Well to sum up this review, I would say, Indiagames.com is a MUST HAVE for every household of all age group. Its 100% legal and kid-friendly, so parents don’t have to worry about explicit contents. The only downfall is that its only for broadband users across the country. But I am sure that will change in near future.


So why I wrote this review? Simple - its for all to know - India is one of the rising country where gaming is a big industry. And websites like Indiagames.com is indeed a starting point to make that dream come true when India will be amongst top countries in Computer Gaming.



So . GAME ON!*
