How Downloadable Game Websites Changed My Gaming Experience

By -
As quite a few of you might know I have been a gamer for over 10 years and in that time I have seen a lot of changes happen in the gaming world. One such change for me which has made a big impact on my gaming experience was discovering downloadable game websites.

I still remember the days when I used to have game CDs and the CD would be put inside the player and that is how the game would start. The CDs would not last for long and got quickly worn out though. It was quite a few years after I started gaming when my mom and I found EA Origin website where we could download a variety of games such as the Need For Speed series.

That was the first time I had ever seen a downloadable game website and at the time I could not believe that such a thing existed and it was just incredible to see. Although the internet speeds were slow so it would take hours for the games to download so what my mom did was have the games start downloading at night before I went to sleep so they would be ready by the next morning. Eventually we also found the Steam gaming website which like EA Origin has a variety of games.

Later on internet speeds would also get faster and the download speed which originally would have taken a full night now takes only around 2 to 4 hours which means I was now able to do it in the day as well which has made installing a game a much easier thing to do now.

Discovering downloadable game websites has completely changed my gaming experience as they have made it a lot easier to find new games and download them not to mention you can search for games as well. Steam and EA Origin are to this day my default preferred places to download games.

Porsche 911 Carrera S

November 15th is the 1st anniversary of the Fast Entertainer blog and it is a pretty special occasion which is why it feels like the right time to make a post about the supercar that started it all. The very first supercar that I have documented. The Porsche 911 Carrera S. This is the actual car which I spotted and photographed. You can see it has a nice red color, all black wheels and even a spoiler in the back. You can also see the Carrera S name on the side of the car. I later found out the Porsche 911 Carrera S is a slightly better variant compared to the base 911 as well which is why I was very happy this happened to be my first documented find. I have of course seen or spotted many supercars since then and I have been able to document them. But the first find is a special one and I am glad that it was something like this. The Porsche 911 Carrera S I will always remember for being the car responsible for me starting my mission to document supercars which eventually lead to the c...

The Lamborghini Huracan Tecnica is the newest Huracan variant that was launched. It is a mid level variant positioned in between the normal Evo variant and the top end track focused STO variant. The Huracan Tecnica is powered by a 631 horsepower V10, so even though it isn’t as powerful as the STO it is still a pretty powerful car by itself. The car reaches a top speed of 325 kmph as well, so the Tecnica is a great package for those who want a faster Huracan that is still road friendly and not track focused. The Huracan Tecnica has some visible exterior changes as well. The general looks are a lot sharper and more aggressive compared to the regular Huracan especially with the black bits at the front. There are a wide variety of customization options as well for owners to spec their car as per their liking, like a carbon fiber hood. Knowing Lamborghini’s pattern of launching and replacing their two supercars with only a short gap and the Aventador already being replaced by the Revuelto j...

The Ferrari SF90 Stradale is already an incredible car by itself, having a total of 1000 hp being powered by a hybrid V8 engine, a top speed of 300+ kmph and a super powerful acceleration. It makes the SF90 Stradale one of Ferraris most powerful cars currently. But if there is one thing you need to know about Ferrari it’s that they will always find a way to enhance some of their fastest production cars and make them even more powerful, usually by creating a high performance or track focused variant that is limited edition. Ferrari have made several of these types of supercars already with the 458 Speciale, 488 Pista, F12 TDF and the 812 Competizione for example. Now it’s the SF90 Stradale’s turn. Meet the Ferrari SF90 XX. So the SF90 XX is said to have 1016 hp and increased downforce among other improvements. There’s also several exterior changes such as an added spoiler, the option to have either yellow or orange colored vents and the overall race car like design that has been put on ...
