It depends on what types of games you are testing.
You may have to play games on computers, simulate operating systems on computers or enter reports and bugs on computers.
I would say 90% of the times, a computer will be involved.
1) Using computers with PC games is obvious.
2) some mobile and proprietary systems are developed on the PC.
To testing, you get a PC and run this proprietary system on the PC.
At the end of the project you may port it to the final device.
3) most times, you have a PC for entering bug reports, emailing, tracking Test cases completed, etc.
