Games & Apps

Some students would like to play online games or use certain applications while they are taking a break from their studies. Unfortunately, we are not able to accomodate every game or application for various reasons. We are planning to send out a survey near the beginning of every fall and spring semester to ask what PC games the students would like to be able to play online. The top games will try to be accomodated. There may be reasons why a certain game will not work. A lack of available bandwidth may also negatively inpact your gaming experience.

Console systems, like Playstations, Xbox's and Wii's are also allowed on the network. Please fill out the gaming console registration form if you would like to try and play online. Depending on your console, you experience may vary. Some systems will have limited functionality.

You should also know that online games will not be allowed to adversely effect the network. Regular internet traffic, which is likely to be used for academic purposes, will always have priority over gaming. Internet use which is not academic by nature is not guaranteed to operate correctly on the Delaware Valley College network.
