A personal computer game, also known as a computer game or abbreviated PC game, is a video game played on a personal computer (PC). The term PC game has been popularly used since the 1990s referring specifically to games on "Wintel" (Microsoft Windows software/Intel hardware) which has dominated the computer industry since. Mainframe and minicomputer games are a precursor to personal computer games. Home computer games became popular following the video game crash of 1983.
