Online Duck Hunting Games

By Dugan Dimensheski

There are several places to find duck hunting games on the internet, in video arcades and for home game consoles. Some of these games are gory and very realistic, while others are almost cartoonish and designed for kids.

When I was young we played a game called Duck Hunt on the Nintendo 8 bit system that was released in the mid 1980s. Since their release in the 1970s, video games and duck hunting games have evolved dramatically.

I had so much fun using the tiny gray laser light gun to shoot the ducks when I used to be a kid on my first Nintendo. The graphics on video games now are nearly lifelike, with astounding 3D perspectives and scenes.

Video arcades today have games more advanced than nostalgic duck hunting games. These games cost tens of thousands of dollars to make and sometimes several dollars to play for a few brief minutes.

Most arcades probably would not make much money from a game with such ancient graphics when compared to Time Crisis or other current first person shooter games. It is really sad that the more recent video arcade games focus so much on action and entertainment than just pure fun and amusement like classic arcade games and duck hunting games.

Spending a few dollars to play a video game at a modern day arcade is pretty much the norm today. I still remember playing most video games for only 25 cents although some of the more expensive games cost one dollar at most.

I just wish that I could find a video arcade somewhere that had more of the classic games like I used to play when I was growing up. One time I even rode my bike over three and a half miles to get to this huge video arcade. I just wish I had not wasted so much time playing duck hunting games and other Nintendo games.

I quit playing video game on both my laptop and Nintendo Wii and sold them at a garage sale. My nephew is so addicted to video games that I just decided to stop playing them altogether so I would not end up like a complete video game junkie.

Playing a video game here and there to relieve stress is ok just as long as it is not a part of my daily routine. Duck hunting games can be played in a couple of minutes and are not like World of Warcraft where you just play for hours on end.
