Minecraft and War Thunder comparison
· Platform
Dependency
Minecraft: PC, android, mac, playstation, xbox, linux, basically everything.
War Thunder: PC, Linux, Mac, PS4
Platform dependency is when a game only works on specific platforms due to differences in code.
Minecraft's simplicity lets it be shipped to more platforms than War Thunder, but War Thunder is a better looking, more complex game due to it having higher detailed graphics and an advanced physics engine.
Neither game is entirely platform dependent.
I am picturing the games being on PC in this instance.

· Operating
Systems used
Minecraft: Windows
War Thunder: Windows
The OS is the system that performs all of the operations the platform needs to run.
The OS changes from platform to platform, with some small changes to the game. As the platform i'm assuming this instance is PC, the OS is windows.

· Drivers
Needed
Minecraft: Dell driver updater, let it do the work for you
War Thunder: Same as the above
Drivers are what make certain things do what they are meant to and make them work better with the OS.
These games probably use similar drivers, with War Thunder running better with Nvidia graphics drivers, although they are not necessary.

· Application
Software used (Programming)
Application Software is the language used for the programming.
An example of a software language is Java
For example, minecraft was written in Java
Java is a programming language and computing platform first released by Sun Microsystems in 1995. There are lots of applications and websites that will not work unless you have Java installed, and more are created every day.
Minecraft: Java
War Thunder: Unknown, tried searching, got nothing, might be secret.
The Aplication Software is the language it was coded in.
I can't seem to find what War Thunder's Application software is, and as such, can't compare it with Minecraft's java

Graphical
API
Minecraft: lightweight Java Game Library, LWJGL
War Thunder: Direct x 11
The graphics API is responsible for running graphical based operations.
Direct x 11 tends is more powerful/higher quality than java, although they are slightly more intensive on the system.

· Sound
API
Minecraft: lightweight Java Game Library, LWJGL
War Thunder: Direct x 11
The sound API is similar to the Graphical API exept it focuses on audio instead of graphics.

· TV
The TV/Monitor is the part that shows you what is happening, and is very important as you can't play an action game via punch-card readout.
Why do people think this matters? If its not a mobile device, just get a screen with a HTMI port that is a size/shape you like, heck you could play it on a projector if you felt like it. The only things that matter is that it connects to the device and your personal preference.
For some reason known only to blogger, some parts of this post are of different sizes/fonts, I have tried to tidy it up but it doesn't save the changes.
