games are a part of everyone's lives in the world of today. where ever you look (except in school of course), when ever you look, there will be someone close, playing electronic games on their handphones, potrable consoles, or even on sitting next to you in MacDonalds playing games on their laptops. did you ever wonder where all these games come from? international companies create and design games and release it to the world to play. games such as pinball for example are not the everyday games you play in singapore. but thanks to great influence and exposure to in-built Windows games, pinball is familiar with Windows users throughout the world. onlin games such as the ever famous Maple Story, have people from different countries spreading culture and language. standardised "game language" is created and internet jargon emerges. various acronyms such as "glhf" (good luck, have fun) and "gg"(good game) are known to gamers all around the world. and since the standard language for most of these international games is english, it is obvious that globalistation also occurs with the help of online portals and games!
