Overview: This paper describes about increasing usage of online gaming using various kind of software. Among them is ID software's Quake III or Sony's EverQuest, popular online gaming sites which reports more than 10 million players. These games are structured in a strictly client-server style, where the client is the game installed on the player's PC or console, and the server maintains the status, the interaction of players with the environment and the unraveling of the game story.
