If it’s not exactly just for online games, what kind of computer would be a little more than sufficient for software games. i’m not interested in online games but just games like the sims 2.
would a computer for software games be cheap.

A gaming computer is normally considered a high end computer for those whom want to get the best graphics and experience out of software game.

However most games can be run with most mid range computers. Games like the Sims 2 could most likely run on a computer 2 years old or so and still run on pretty high graphics and would enable you a good experience.

I would recommend buying a mid range computer. This would enable you to enjoy most of the games currently out there and would allow you to be able to play games for a few years to come, more if you spend a little money on upgrades down the road.
