Online Text Based Games

Simply put this phenomenon has been around for a long time and I have had my fair share of these games. My current 2 favorites are Tribalwars and Torn City .

Most of these games are slow going and have a real time play involved so that you could end up playing for years on the games. Which isn't surprising as these are real simple games that take real time into account.

Simple games like these are fun but they lack in graphics that the new games have. Although I am starting to prefer these text based games purely because of their playability. You could spend days and hours on these games where as in the newer games like COD: Black Ops you could only spend a few hours with it and then your bored.

Or the newer games end up being purely an online pay game that cost's an arm and a leg, like WOW which are really awesome but you can only play it online. Might as well get a free online game and be done with it then.

Oh well that's my rant for the day. :P

My conclusion Textbased = Awesome! :P
