Playing PC Games With Others

[OOPZZ]

I'm not a gamer but I do like to play when I get tired and bored of doing other stupid stuff.

My question is ... what do I need to do in order to play games with other friends and associates that are on their computer?

Let's say me and my buddy have the same game. How can we connect to each other over our PC's to play the game together?

Is this something hard to do?

Depends on the game. Most multiplayer games allow direct IP connections in some form, but there isn't a general way of doing it for every game.

In short, nope!

Online PC gaming is really quite simple. But as Jimmy said before it mainly depends on the game you want to play?

You would most likely need a quick connection for modern games and a PC that's of a high enough standard to run the actual game you wish to play.

Direct IP is a good way of setting up a game for just you and your pals to playing in, but a number of multiplayer games use online "Lobbys" in the game from where you can set up and/or join games with both your friends or strangers.

What game (or games) is it you want to play? I'm sure someone on here would be able to help you out!
