Internet acts not only an entertainment tool but also an essential professional
resource for work, communication, as well as education. For some, they use
the Internet as one of the most
fabulous creations that give everyone in the world instant access to an
endless supply of knowledge. While others use the Internet to have unlimited
access to entertainment, watching videos, movies, listen to music, and even

online games. Online gaming can refer to any game that someone can play
through the internet or over a computer network. Most of the time, online
gaming applies to video games played over the internet, where multiple
players are in different locations around the world. As such, online games are
freeware programs that can be used for an unlimited time and are available
for free. Most percentage of web games available nowadays is written in
Flash, Shockwave and Java languages. Because of that, they feature more
primitive gameplay than downloadable games.Having an online gaming
experience typically requires a high-speed internet connection. Proper
hardware will be needed whether it's a computer or a gaming console, such
as Xbox or Play station that's connected to the internet. Some online games
need a specific piece of controlling hardware such as a joystick or a game
controller, but these days, gaming technology has progressed to an extreme
extent. Things like streaming 3-D animation graphics with superb surround
sound stereo now can make all addicted to gaming. Regarding video games,
online gaming is growing in popularity for a variety of reasons. Gamers can
easily find opponents of a similar skill level when playing a head-to-head
game over the internet. Players also can compete in massively multiplayer
games, where dozens of players play an ongoing game in a virtual world.
Some online games change a monthly fee for access to video game

Framework
In online games, continuous scoring, promotion, immediate feedback, and
achievement of
self-satisfaction have become the channels for upgrading individual self-
esteem of the Internet generation. Computer games provide various means
for the users to express themselves, to explore the world and seek self-
recognition. The Internet, which possesses anonymous and diverse
characteristics, is an essential channel for expanding friendship and finding
belonging. The above statements and research findings indicated that online
games might offer positive and optimal experience to the players. However,
excessive flowing in this optimal experience might result in
an adverse outcome. This paradox is worthwhile for intense exploration. This
study anchored on Flow theory which can be referred to as the "Psychology of
Optimal Experience," which in recent years has been applied to the behavior
of Internet usage and e-commerce by some research. The experiences
described by flow states such as clear objective and immediate feedback,
challenge encounter and adequate skill, a combination of action and
consciousness, concentration, sense of control, curiosity, loss of self-
awareness, purposeful experience, and personal interests are the states
which can be experienced and accomplished by online games. In the study of
Hwang, he explored college students' Internet usage behavior in Taiwan
through flow theory and found out that under general situations, the users
would experience flow state when using the Internet. The more the users
since the premise aspects of flow, the more they will realize the flow
experience of the Internet.

Moreover, they are more likely to
proceed with related exploring behaviors (Hwang, 2000). Another study
conducted by Choi and Kim

found that people continue to play online games if they have an optim
al experience because the flow state had an impact on consumer loyalty (Choi
and Kim, 2004). Consequently, the optimal experience of online games
relatively complies with the psychological state of flow theory. Furthermore,
once the users are more addictive to online games, they would exclusively
focus upon seeking flow experience. O
