You can say "videogioco" for every kind of "videogame" or "computer game". There isn't an actual word for "computer game" but you can say "videogioco per computer/pc".
"videogioco" is literally videogame while "videogioco per computer" means computer game.
"Videogioco" is a videogame/computer game.
"Videogioco per computer" is a repetition, sounds horrible and I have never heard it being used in an actual conversation.
It is different when instead of the generic "computer" you say what plattform is it for:
"Videogioco per Linux", " Videogioco per Playstation" etc
