Video game

A video game is any game played on a video-game console, any interactive game software, or a computer game where a video display is the primary feedback device.
==Game genres==
*First-person shooter (FPS) games are video or computer games in which the player's viewpoint is a game character's perspective. They often feature guns and other combat weapons. Star Wars: Dark Forces and its sequels are FPSs, as is Star Wars: Republic Commando. See :Category:First-person shooters for more examples.
*Flight simulators are games that put the player in the position of piloting an air- or spacecraft against opponents or obstacles. The X-wing and TIE Fighter series, Rogue Squadron series, Starfighter series, and Star Wars Galaxies: Jump to Lightspeed are all flight simulators.
*Real-time strategy (RTS) games are usually computer games in which the player views multiple characters from a top-down point of view. In RTSs, players usually command multiple groups of characters without actually fighting themselves. Examples of RTSs include Star Wars: Rebellion, Star Wars: Force Commander, Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds, and Star Wars: Empire at War.
*Role-playing games (RPGs) are video or computer games in which the player views the character from a third-person perspective and makes choices that ultimately change the games' story. Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic and Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords are RPGs. They are similar in some ways to tabletop roleplaying games.
*Massively multiplayer online role-playing games (MMORPGs) are online games where players take on characters and interact with each other on a broad scale. They often feature a variety of environments and numerous non-player characters (NPCs) to provide a more realistic feel. Examples include Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided, Star Wars: Clone Wars Adventures and Star Wars: The Old Republic.
