Online and PC gaming are among the topmost multimillion dollar industries in the world. With such recognition, it’s no surprise that they keep introducing various games for both children and adults. These games can fall into different categories. Out of these, role playing games (RPG) and massive multiplayer (MMP) games are very popular. Role playing games are sub-divided as single player and multiplayer versions. The massive multiplayer games don’t have any single player versions at all.

When you take part in a Role Playing Game, you will take on a new character and persona, a role you will play in the game. There will be rules in each game within which you have to function, but within those rules, you can choose your actions and your actions will decide the direction the game takes. This can make a very interesting hobby and pastime because of the freedom it gives.

Role Playing Games are a lot of fun and can even help people forget about winning and form teams, and work together, which makes them very different from arcades, puzzles and card games.

You can play a Role Playing Game against other people, other player who are in the network, or you can play against characters already programmed in the computer. Either way, these games progress, like a television show does through episodes - you have to play through sessions, which might take anywhere from weeks to months to complete.

You can find different kinds of RPG - some are based on fantasy, like Dungeons and Dragons, and some others, for example Call of Duty, are based on the real world, though rather exaggerated. The main story and theme of these games will go on through sessions. As you play on and reach new levels, there will be new elements added, like new characters or new twists.

All characters in a RPG are predefined and act in a certain way, with specified abilities. If you take a game such as X-Men, you’ll notice how the characters show exactly the same abilities as in the comic book. You can only choose a predefined number of characters and use their abilities accordingly. Interaction is very much a part of every role playing game.

With Massive Multi-Player Games, you need more than hundred people to play, and the games, rules and plots are a lot more complicated. There are much bigger challenges to get through, and the levels and level of competition and interaction are much higher.

MMP is played in a much bigger scale than RPG. You have to be connected to the net to play it, and you can only play if you pay the monthly subscription. You also need a whole lot more people on your network to play it - take, for example, one of the most popular of MMP (also called MMORPG or Massively Multi-Player Online Role Playing Games), EverQuest - it usually has up to thousands of players in its fantasy world, set in another universe.

Computer and online gaming are extremely popular now - so much so that they have become huge multimillion dollar businesses. There are different games for different audiences - for children and for adults - and new games are being designed every day. The two main kinds of games are Role Playing Games, or RPG - they can be played by a single player or a number of players, depending on the features of each game - and Massive Multi-Player Games, which are played by many players.

Participating in a role playing game means you assume the role of some fictitious character, often available in a specific collaborative storyline. While there are rules to follow, the player is given the freedom to choose from different actions, according to which the game will take shape and the results will occur. Improvisation is allowed within the rules and because of this, role playing games make for a great pastime.

The primary objective of role playing games is having fun. This makes them quite different from the usual card, puzzle, arcade and other games. More than competition, RPG lean towards collaboration and socialising.

You can play a Role Playing Game against other people, other player who are in the network, or you can play against characters already programmed in the computer. Either way, these games progress, like a television show does through episodes - you have to play through sessions, which might take anywhere from weeks to months to complete.

You can find different kinds of RPG - some are based on fantasy, like Dungeons and Dragons, and some others, for example Call of Duty, are based on the real world, though rather exaggerated. The main story and theme of these games will go on through sessions. As you play on and reach new levels, there will be new elements added, like new characters or new twists.

All characters in a RPG are predefined and act in a certain way, with specified abilities.

With Massive Multi-Player Games, you need more than hundred people to play, and the games, rules and plots are a lot more complicated. There are much bigger challenges to get through, and the levels and level of competition and interaction are much higher.

The main differences between RPG and MMP are that MMP requires you to be online, pay a monthly subscription and be connected to hundreds and thousands of players at the same time. A popular MMP is EverQuest, a 3D fantasy-themed game set in an alternative universe. Another common name for MMP is Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Games (MMORPG).
