This is especially the case for game titles, where something like TF2 might refer to Team Fortress 2, Titanfall 2, or Thunder Force 2. Thankfully, the terms PvE and PvP are some of the better defined and explored, but they still require a little explanation if you’re fresh to the world of gaming.</p><p>To help you along, we’ll cover exactly what these terms mean, and what makes the PvP vs PvE debate such a hot topic. Understanding both sides of the coin will help you better define the games you like, and even guide you to finding titles better suited to your taste in the future. With that in mind, let’s jump into the actual conversation.</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\">{{banner:middleraidorc}}</p><h2 id=\"what-is-better---pvp-or-pve?\">What Is Better - PvP or PvE?</h2><p>The question of PvP vs PvE is an entirely personal one, where there is no one best overall answer. PvE vs PvP is all about what each player prefers, so the answer is ultimately <i>up to you.</i></p><h2 id=\"what-is-pve,-and-what-does-it-stand-for?\">What Is PvE, and What Does It Stand For?</h2><p>The term PvE refers to <i>Player versus Environment</i>. This is where the player in a video game competes against the game world and the computer, not other players. In the PvE vs PvP split, PvE often includes <a href=\"/en/blog/top-casual-games/\">more casual games</a>, but this isn't always the case.</p><p>PvE titles tend to be single-player experiences, and because of this, they can be more strictly guided than their counterparts in the PvP vs PvE world. Player versus environment games ignores the randomness and unpredictable behavior that human opponents thrive on.</p><figure class=\"image\"><img src=\"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2023/pve-vs-pvp-4.webp\" alt=\"PvE Meaning\"></figure><p>Exactly what the term environment means will change depending on the game. It might make us think of the untamed wilderness, but in the PvE vs PvP split, the term is used much more broadly. The environment in PvE can mean an enemy monster, it can be a pit of lava, or it can be a CPU-controlled card game player.</p><p>The name PvE is essentially just a catch-all which means a video game where the challenge comes from the game world without opponent player intervention. Games with combat apply this term most of all, but it can be more loosely applied to other forms of computer challenge too. </p><h2 id=\"what-is-pvp,-and-what-does-it-mean?\">What Is PvP, and What Does It Mean?</h2><p>The other side of the PvP vs PvE equation stands for <i>Player versus Player</i>. This is when the main opponents you’ll be facing are other humans. These humans might be right next to you in the case of titles like fighting games, or they could be on the opposite side of the world in <a href=\"/en/blog/rts-vs-tbs/\">turn-based strategy</a> PvP games. </p><figure class=\"image\"><img src=\"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2023/pve-vs-pvp-3.webp\" alt=\"PvP Meaning\"></figure><p>Many of the <a href=\"/en/blog/popular-games/\">most popular games right now</a> like Counter-Strike and Dota 2 embrace PvP at their core. This is because of the types of games in the PvE vs PvP world, PvP involves the thrill and reward of directly fighting and overcoming another human player. Humans can learn and react like computers can't, and some players love what a victory in this type of competition represents. </p><p>Like in PvE, PvP titles aren't limited by genre. PvP can refer to fighting games, shooters, RPGs, racing games, card games, or any other interactive experience that has you directly facing a human. PvP combat doesn't have to be fair, as one side might have a massive gameplay or skill advantage over another.</p><h2 id=\"pve-vs-pvp\">PvE vs PvP</h2><figure class=\"image\"><img src=\"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2023/pve-vs-pvp-2.webp\" alt=\"PvE vs PVP\"></figure><p>For a direct comparison of PvP vs PvE, consider the following: </p><ul><li>PvE is when your opponent is the computer and its world</li><li>PvP is when your opponent is another player </li></ul><p>There’s <i>a lot</i> of debate in the gaming community as to which of PvP vs PvE is better, and this applies to gamers of all ages and platforms. From those who only <a href=\"/en/blog/mac-games/\">play Mac games</a> to people who solely enjoy console shooters, it’s common to see arguments about which is better, which is more fun, and which makes you a “real gamer”. </p><p>Which side of the PvE and PvP spectrum you prefer will depend on how much you like to relax while playing, the types of challenges you enjoy overcoming, and which genres best represent your interests. Like the PC/Mac/Xbox/PlayStation/Nintendo debates, there aren’t any wrong answers, as long as you understand that your choice only really applies to you.</p><h2 id=\"tl;dr---what-is-the-difference-between-pve-and-pvp?\">TL;DR - What is the difference between PvE and PvP?</h2><p>PvE is when the player is fighting the environment and the challenges within it. PvP is when the player <i>directly</i> fights other players. </p><h2 id=\"the-pve-and-pvp-hybrid\">The PvE and PvP Hybrid</h2><p>One final point to remember is that while we can define games within the PvP vs PvE world as mostly belonging to one side, many titles also feature considerable overlap.</p><p><a href=\"/en/blog/best-mmorpgs/\">MMORPGs</a> are perhaps the best example of this, where players in their digital worlds can focus on which of the PvP vs PvE elements they enjoy most. Some players might never touch the PvP in an MMORPG, while others might compete so fiercely that their entire character is built around PvP combat. </p><p>Some games even fuse the concepts into single game modes. Dota 2, for example, has players not just competing against each other, but also against the computer-controlled towers, team creeps, and special stronger neutral units. In this case, the game is typically regarded as PvP since that’s where the focus lies, but remembering the PvE aspects can also be key to claiming victory.</p><h3 id=\"what-is-pvp-vs-pve-vs-pvc?\">What is PvP vs PvE vs PVC?</h3><p>PvP (player versus player) is when players compete against other players.

Built on player choice and a wonderful world full of monsters, dungeons, and, well, dragons, BG3 is a huge experience full of surprises and rewards.</p><h3>Dead Island 2 </h3><p style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/IG8kCnYnRsw?si=8VokAOXDbOhRv2Ox\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>Another title that was feared lost to development hell, this zombie-slaying FPS arrived at huge applause from AAA game fans. With fantastic melee combat that satisfied even the biggest haters of the undead, Dead Island 2 brought morally acceptable violence back into the mainstream. </p><h3>Final Fantasy 16 </h3><p style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/iaJ4VVFGIa8?si=LMbHXX-CAJXmn8Oy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>Embracing a more classical Western style following FF15, Final Fantasy 16 showed that Square Enix still has it in them to explore new approaches. It doesn’t hurt that this title also looks beautiful, and will hopefully keep us satisfied until the second part of the upcoming Final Fantasy 7 Remake.</p><h3>Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon </h3><p style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/kQJb8He0pYA?si=ULBfYXPzSyFmF3Rg\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>Developer FromSoftware had a lot to live up to after years of focusing on Soulsborne titles, and they delivered on their return to Armored Core. Fast-paced, challenging, and with enormous customization options, AC6 proved the series has what it takes to perform in the modern AAA games arena. </p><h3>The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom </h3><p style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/fYZuiFDQwQw?si=R9bUyy-noccu7Ynh\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>A direct sequel to Breath of the Wild, Tears of the Kingdom again showed the team at Nintendo at their best. With new challenges, new mechanics, and new sites to see and explore, Tears of the Kingdom gave Switch owners one more great title in their AAA games lineup. </p><h3>Starfield </h3><p style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/kfYEiTdsyas?si=LOeFiDWI0E_9_IqO\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>Starfield is the latest release on this AAA games list, and while it's fun at launch, we're expecting it to only get better over time. Mods and fan fixes are crucial in Bethesda titles, and with Starfield, we're expecting great things not just for next year, but the next decade to come. </p><h3>What’s the Difference Between an A and AAA Game? </h3><p>The term A games, like AA games, tend to refer to titles with lower budgets and less visibility that are still of high quality. Like AAA titles, these can be anything from console games and PC titles to <a href=\"/en/blog/best-ios-games/\">iOS games</a>, though they're most common on PC thanks to the PC offering the most open marketplace.</p><h3>Are all AAA games $70?</h3><p>No. The price of AAA games is a hot topic of debate in the gaming community, where the $70 price point is a new development discussed by AAA developers. At the current trajectory, AAA games are more likely to embrace the $70 price point going forward. </p><h2>AAA Games On the Horizon </h2><p>This article was written in mid-September of 2023, and several upcoming AAA games are likely to blow our socks off even by the end of <i>this</i> year. For fans of big open worlds and stealth gameplay, Assassin’s Creed Mirage is likely to continue the series’ much-loved legacy. Racing fans can look forward to Forza Motorsport, which is set to take the famous racing game into the new generation of Xbox systems. </p><p>Marvel's Spider-Man 2 for the PS5 is another title we can’t wait to get our webbed fingers on, as a sequel to one of the PS4’s best. Even Nintendo’s 2D fans have something to look forward to, as Super Mario Bros Wonder looks to recapture the classic appeal on the Switch, alongside the requisite range of fun new powerups and multiplayer gameplay.</p><p>The latest console generation might have had a weak start, but in 2023, it’s really starting to hit its stride in classic, <a href=\"/en/blog/ar-vs-vr/\">AR and VR gaming</a>. The same seems true for 2024, which is as exciting for gamers, and terrifying for their wallets.

AR games provide a new way to integrate classic gameplay into the real world, and while that produces challenges, it provides many new opportunities.</p><p>AR games can do what traditional gaming alone can’t, and while we’re still technologically limited in what AR games can do, their best titles have still achieved astonishingly fun results. What are AR games anyway, and which are the best titles you can play in 2023? Let's have a look.</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\">{{banner:middleraidorc}}</p><h2 id=\"the-top-ar-games-of-2023\">The Top AR Games of 2023</h2><h3 id=\"pokémon-go\">Pokémon GO</h3><p>No list of AR games would be complete without the first big title that set the world on fire. Pokémon GO was a revelation when it launched back in 2016, as it brought mobile AR games to the masses.</p><p>The idea is simple, Pokémon GO uses maps to semi-randomly place Pokémon down. You go, you catch, and you make progress by exercising and taking over local hotspots. This was a genius way to introduce AR games through the most profitable media franchise of all time, and the gamble by Niantic more than paid off.</p><h3 id=\"angry-birds-ar:-isle-of-pigs\">Angry Birds AR: Isle of Pigs</h3><p>Speaking of games that already made it big on other platforms before heading to AR, Angry Birds on mobiles was one of the titles that really reached across borders. The game was a simple Crush the Castle clone, but it struck a chord with players like its inspiration never did.</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/NzsRtkZoXvc?si=SPa4zwoBLM0Fo6hP\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>To play Angry Birds AR, you simply aim your camera at a piece of flat ground and the game produces a tower for you to knock down. Aiming a first-person slingshot, this is one of those AR games that can work even better in AR than in its original form. With 70 levels and all the classic Angry Birds characters, we just wish this game had more content to fly through.</p><h3 id=\"zrx:-zombie,-run\">ZRX: Zombies, Run!</h3><p>Originally released in 2020, Zombies, Run! takes the idea of AR games to the frontier of mobile exercise. When this game arrived, exercise apps were already a fantastic way to stay in shape, and this title gamified their systems to new heights.</p><p>Filled with different missions that typically last around 30-40 minutes, ZRX also lets you build a base, check your progress and achievement, and now even crosses over with Marvel properties. AR games can be about more than just fun, and this title proves it.</p><h3 id=\"wallame\">WallaMe</h3><p>If you’re after AR games that lean more heavily into real-world exploration, then WallaMe might be exactly what you’re looking for. This title uses AR functionality to let you hide messages in the real world, kind of like being a graffiti artist without having to spend on paint or risk being arrested.</p><p>WallaMe is an interesting kind of cooperative experience, where you can talk with friends and strangers and share ideas and a love of special places. Maybe you would like to express a great time you had with a friend, or even point out special nearby spots that other players might have missed. Few AR games provide the opportunities to do this like WallaMe does, making it just as much a fun communication tool as an AR game.</p><h3 id=\"reality-clash:-ar-combat-game\">Reality Clash: AR Combat Game</h3><p>Some AR games allow PVP combat, but few approach the concept as directly as Reality Clash. This title lets you take place in AR combat either in person or across the internet as you claim real physical zones as home bases.</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/gmSy40i9DBk?si=xBOLAO3kXfY3fEId\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>To play Reality Clash you’ll navigate and do battle while holding your phone in front of you as a gunsight, dodging and shooting to take down your opponents. While you’ll still need to be careful to not bump into anything, this form of engagement is still something you'll get lost in. If you want to check out if <a href=\"/en/blog/pvp-and-pve/\">PvP vs PvE</a> AR games are for you, consider this one as a measuring stick.</p><h3 id=\"cosmic-frontline-ar\">Cosmic Frontline AR</h3><p>What would happen if you could bring space into your living room? Your lungs would probably object, but forget that point and consider the great space combat experience available from Cosmic Frontline AR. This game has you building a spaceship fleet to engage in battles with <a href=\"/en/glossary/npc/\">NPCs (non-player characters)</a> in front of your eyes.</p><p>Despite how hectic space battles would probably be, the automated way that fights play out in Cosmic Frontline makes it one of the more surprisingly relaxing AR games. It might not be as relaxing as a nap in zero gravity, but it's as close as most of us will probably get.</p><h3 id=\"five-nights-at-freddys-ar\">Five Nights at Freddy's AR</h3><p>The Five Nights at Freddy's series has a reputation for being frightening, which makes us wonder if making it one of the <a href=\"/en/blog/realistic-games/\">more realistic games</a> on this list is a great idea. FNAF AR has you scanning for intruders as you prepare for the jump scares the games are famous for.</p><p>Malfunctioning animatronics are even more terrifying than regular animatronics, and having them leap out at you in your home where you feel safest can be literal nightmare fuel. Just remember to hold onto your phone tightly so you don’t throw it across the room, and that some AR games are best played in short bursts. The last thing you want is the Tetris Effect showing up with these creepy robotic intruders.</p><h3 id=\"knightfall-ar\">Knightfall AR</h3><p><a href=\"/en/games/genre/tower-defense-games/\">Tower defense games</a> were some of the biggest hits in early web gaming, and Knightfall AR brings all their classic fun directly to you in the real world. Find a flat surface like a coffee table or a floor, and Knightfall places down a virtual castle to defend, and a parade of attackers who don't care that they've lost their invites.</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/JoXiu-2NsPw?si=dmXOFJIoNJJp-Zw6\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>Using arrows, catapults, and whatever taunts you think can break through chainmail, Knightfall’s single-player-only gameplay is a great fit for both newcomers and tower defense veterans. There's a lot of style in this game, which is a fantastic look on both Apple and Android devices.</p><h3 id=\"a-new-world\">A New World</h3><p>The true promise in pushing AR to the next level comes with smaller and more portable glasses-type devices like Apple’s Vision Pro. These will encourage greater activity and flexibility, and bring existing physical games like laser tag to a whole new level.</p><p>Until then, AR on mobile is still at an impressive standard, and its popularity is only growing by the year. It's only been a short while, but AR has proven it's one to watch. Whether defending your base, watching out for mechanical interlopers, or engaging in the never-ending avian/porcine war, there's something in AR for everyone.</p><h2 id=\"faq\">FAQ</h2><h3 id=\"what-does-ar-mean-in-games?\">What does AR mean in games?</h3><p>AR stands for <i>augmented reality</i>. This is where virtual imagery is placed over the real world through the use of cameras and screens. The most common use of AR in gaming is with smartphones, but the real potential is slowly being uncovered in next-generation glasses-type devices like Apple's Vision Pro.</p><h3 id=\"what-games-are-best-known-for-using-ar?\">What games are best known for using AR?</h3><p>The most famous games to use AR are Pokémon GO and Angry Birds AR: Isle of Pigs. Their titles are simple to jump into and have proven enormous revelations in showing the world just a glimpse of AR's true potential. These would be system sellers if everybody didn't already own a smartphone!</p><h3 id=\"what-is-the-difference-between-vr-and-ar-gaming?\">What is the difference between VR and AR gaming?</h3><p>In <i>virtual reality (VR)</i> the entire displayed world is created by the computer. In AR, virtual elements are placed on top of the real world. Thanks to this approach, VR requires a full headset, but AR games can work extremely well on a smartphone too.</p><h3 id=\"what-equipment-is-needed-for-ar?\">What equipment is needed for AR?</h3><p>Most AR games can be played perfectly from smartphones released in the last five years, and often older devices too.</p><h3 id=\"are-ar-games-expensive?\">Are AR games expensive?</h3><p>It depends on the title. Many AR games are cheap or free, and few that are released yet will be as expensive as traditional video games. This could change in the future, however, as experiences expand.</p><h3 id=\"can-ar-games-work-with-touch-control?\">Can AR games work with touch control?</h3><p>While you can't touch a projection directly, there are devices from companies like HaptX and MANUS Meta that integrate haptic feedback into specially designed gloves to generate feelings of touch. Future incarnations of this technology could enable realistic sensations of touch with AR imagery.</p><h3 id=\"what-is-the-best-ar-game?\">What is the best AR game?</h3><p>Like every other video game, this depends on your taste. There are enough genres that everyone should be able to find the title that stands out the most to them.</p><h3 id=\"how-much-room-do-i-need-for-ar?\">How much room do I need for AR?</h3><p>The room needed for AR will change depending on the title. Some require an open room-sized space in front of you, others are best used outdoors, and some can require a small flat table-sized surface.</p>","date":"9/13/2021"},"images":{"preview":{"alt":"AR Games (Alternate Reality Games)","href":"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2023/ar-games.webp"},"authorAvatar":{"href":"//cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/portal/common/avatars/default_avatar.jpg","sizes":[]}},"template_options":{"compositeId":"13421"}},{"links":{"link":"/en/blog/video-game-villains/"},"strings":{"title":"The Greatest Video Game Villains of All Time","category":"Insights","author":"PLARIUM STAFF","readTime":"360000","description":"<p><i>'A hero is only as good as his villain'</i> is a line long used in media, and it might be true more in video games than anywhere else.

From the most evil video game villains to worthy foes with a more comical bend, these are the opponents you'll remember long after the credits roll.</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\">{{banner:middleraidanger}}</p><h2 id=\"the-top-7-video-game-villains-to-have-graced-our-screens\">The Top 7 Video Game Villains to Have Graced Our Screens</h2><h3 id=\"1.-king-bowser-from-mario\">1. King Bowser from Mario</h3><p>King of the Koopas, Bowser isn't the first of Mario's video game villains (that dubious honor goes to Donkey Kong), but he is the most memorable. This dragon turtle has been a thorn in Mario's side since the original Super Mario Bros.</p><p>Bowser’s hobbies include kidnapping princesses, breathing fire, and pushing players off the track while racing go-karts on a rainbow in outer space. Appearing in 69 games as of this article, Bowser is iconic, and apparently not such a bad guy. After all, why would Mario invite Bowser to parties or play tennis if he didn’t bring something special to the table?</p><h3 id=\"2.-ganon/ganondorf-from-the-legend-of-zelda\">2. Ganon/Ganondorf from The Legend of Zelda</h3><p>There's always been debate over how the world of The Legend of Zelda works. Is each game a retelling of the same legend, or does each title represent a new incarnation in an eternal battle? What we do know is that Ganon/Ganondorf is one of the most famous evil video game characters ever.</p><p>This might seem a little confusing to include two names but think of these video game villains as the same guy in different forms. Ganondorf is the name he takes when appearing in a (mostly) human form, whereas Ganon is the title taken when in literal beast mode.</p><p>While kidnapping is par for the course for this man-beast, more important to his overall gameplan is the theft of the Triforce. Once complete, he aims to take his place among the video game villains' pantheon by remaking the world. Of course, he has to get through a plucky adventurer in a green tunic first...</p><h3 id=\"3.-sephiroth-from-final-fantasy-7\">3. Sephiroth from Final Fantasy 7</h3><p style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/rfomXPypkHE?si=mtJ1Uddz316U5zzX\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>Final Fantasy 7 was the game that popularized JRPGs in the West, and Sephiroth played a huge part in that. A devastatingly powerful force, Sephiroth is one of those video game villains known across the world even decades later. Armed with this signature longsword the Masamune, and hair that is rumored to require an entire bottle of conditioner with each wash, Sephiroth is a nearly unstoppable force. We can't wait to see this guy fleshed out more as the FF7 remakes continue.</p><h3 id=\"4.-dr.-robotnik-from-sonic\">4. Dr. Robotnik from Sonic</h3><p>Dr. Robotnik, or Eggman as he is mockingly known, is a power-mad scientist with no shortage of ingenuity and, apparently, funds. Robotnik counts himself as among the video game villains who face the most defeats, yet he never lets that dull his confidence. Sure, he probably could make the world a peaceful utopia, but he doesn’t want to make the world a peaceful utopia, he wants to turn animals into robots.</p><p>Dr. Robotnik is such an iconic foe, that not only was he played by Jim Carrey in the cinematic adaptation of the game, but <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VIIkB07ZtHQ\" rel=\"nofollow\">his theme</a> has also been covered many times in a plethora of different music styles and instruments!</p><h3 id=\"5.-glados-from-portal\">5. GLaDOS from Portal</h3><p>Borrowing heavily from the equally brilliant SHODAN from System Shock, GLaDOS is a robotic video game villain built to test the player's character. The problem is, she's a little too good at her job, and the effort into programming her dedication apparently wasn't equaled by investment in morality circuits. Whether taunting the player with non-existent baked goods or setting gun turrets after us, this video game villain is hilarious and memorable. If only somebody could fix her.</p><h3 id=\"6.-m.-bison-from-street-fighter\">6. M. Bison from Street Fighter</h3><p style=\"text-align:center;\" id=\"6.-m.-bison-from-street-fighter\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/ixFIQ3omLQE?si=6Qg0OVBsQjG0fJtW\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>M. Bison has been the long-running antagonist in Street Fighter. This video game villain uses Psycho Power and his shady Shadaloo organization to try to take control of the world. Noted for his ability to fly at enemies and rock a purple coat, M. Bison is a popular video game villain who so far hasn’t appeared in the latest title (thanks to being dead in the canon).</p><p>Interestingly, Bison is known as Dictator internationally thanks to name discrepancies between the Japanese versions of the game and those of other areas. Apparently developer Capcom thought they might find problems if they kept their boxer character named Mike Byson in America.</p><h3 id=\"7.-vaas-from-far-cry-3\">7. Vaas from Far Cry 3</h3><p>Vass is an outlier on this list of video game villains because it’s not his gameplay that stands out the most, it’s his character. Vaas set the standard of memorable Far Cry villains, as he repeatedly questions your understanding of insanity, all while being the most intimidating character on an island of psychopaths.</p><h2 id=\"faqs\">FAQs</h2><h3 id=\"who-is-the-most-famous-video-game-villain?\">Who is the most famous video game villain?</h3><p>There are a couple of possible choices here, but by legacy, the most well-known of the video game villains would have to be Bowser. He's been a constant meanie to generations of gamers, and judging by his latest mainline appearance in Mario Odyssey, he isn't stopping anytime soon.</p><h3 id=\"who-is-the-strongest-video-game-villain?\">Who is the strongest video game villain?</h3><p>This is a hotly debated topic, but of all the characters created especially for video games, <a href=\"/en/blog/mythological-rpg-fantasy-game-characters/\">RPG characters</a> in video game villains can stand out the most. Sephiroth is a real contender here, with his Supernova attack destroying planets on the way to demolish the player's party.</p><h3 id=\"what-games-can-you-play-as-the-villain?\">What games can you play as the villain?</h3><p>Some games let you play as video game villains in repeat playthroughs, as DLC, or in sequels. The most common way to play as video game villains is in fighting games, where boss characters join the roster to exchange fisticuffs.</p><h2 id=\"your-villain-of-choice\">Your Villain of Choice</h2><p>This entry for video game villains might seem like cheating, but it’s always true that video game villains that stick with us are reflections of personal taste. From our personal loves, fears, or frustrations, the most famous opponents don’t need a home in AAA PC or console games to stand out.</p><p>The L block from Tetris might be your worst enemy thanks to bad experiences, and that’s (strange but) fine. <a href=\"/en/blog/how-play-flash-games/\">Flash games in 2023</a>, or what they’re morphed into, can also generate some famous boss encounters thanks to putting up a particularly memorable or fun fight.</p><p>We've heard people talk about dungeon bosses like Fire Knight from <a href=\"/en/game/raid-shadow-legends/\">RAID</a> as their favorites, while others hate Spider thanks to a general distaste of arachnids.

This era set many ideas followed for decades, from genres to series, control types, and, of course, cheat codes.</p><p>In the world of cheat codes, none hold the ongoing legacy and fame that the Konami Code does. Still in use decades later, this callback to gaming’s early console days might be confusing for younger readers, or those who grew up on PC. So, what’s the Konami code anyway, where did it come from, and how do we still see it used in the modern era?</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\">{{banner:middleraidorc}}</p><h3 id=\"what-did-the-original-konami-code-do?\">What Did the Original Konami Code Do?</h3><p>The original Konami Code was used in a port of the 1985 arcade <a href=\"/en/blog/space-mmo/\">space-shooter</a> game Gradius. When entered on the pause screen, it instantly provides the player with all the powerups that the player normally collects gradually.</p><h2 id=\"what-is-the-konami-code?\">What Is the Konami Code?</h2><p>The Konami Code is a series of inputs that when used in the right game and place, provides some sort of cheat or unlockable feature. The inputs for this code are traditionally the following:</p><figure class=\"image\"><img src=\"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2023/konami-code-2.webp\" alt=\"The Konami Code\"></figure><p style=\"text-align:center;\">Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, B, A</p><h2 id=\"where-did-the-konami-code-come-from?\">Where Did the Konami Code Come From?</h2><p>The Konami Code originated from an NES port of a side-scrolling arcade shooter called Gradius. Games at the time, especially those which came from arcades, were notoriously difficult. This difficulty made them great at eating money from players, but it also created issues in game testing.</p><p>Game testers need to be able to play through the entire title to check for errors, so if they can’t survive, then the quality of the game can suffer. As a solution, a developer of the game named Kazuhisa Hashimoto included the code to help testers.</p><p>When entered on the pause screen of Gradius, the Konami Code provides all ship upgrades, making the player much more powerful. This helped the testers finish the game, and perform better quality assurance as a result.</p><p>Funnily enough, the Konami Code wasn’t originally meant to stay in Gradius. It was simply forgotten about when the game shipped, and later iterations didn’t remove the code for fear it could introduce glitches and bugs. When the players learned about the code, it became famous, and Konami leaned into this fame.</p><h3 id=\"is-the-konami-code-still-used?\">Is the Konami Code Still Used?</h3><p>The Konami Code is still used today, but it's used differently. Games today tend not to focus on lives-based gameplay, so adding extra lives or power-ups would often be <i>pointless</i>. Instead, the modern Konami code usually <a href=\"/en/glossary/new-game-plus/\">unlocks bonus content </a>or hard difficulty modes.</p><h2 id=\"going-beyond-its-origins\">Going Beyond its Origins</h2><p>After the success and fame of Gradius and the original Konami Code, Konami looked into implementing it into further titles. The most famous of these games is Contra for the NES, a game notorious for its challenge. Entering the code in Contra provides 30 extra lives, which for many players still wasn’t enough to overcome the overwhelming alien and <a href=\"/en/glossary/npc/\">NPC</a> menace.</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/MkSYX0N07CQ?si=kzsw4mDW6PhDnu4v\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>Over the years, Konami kept including the Konami Code, even as they left the NES and explored other platforms like the SNES, <a href=\"/en/blog/ps-vita-games/\">PS Vita</a>, Xbox One, and PC. As gaming evolved and cheat codes became less common, the Konami Code would evolve to offer other bonuses and unlocks, even in games not from Konami.</p><p>Entering a Konami Code did become a little more difficult too, because not all systems use the layout of the original NES controller. The Xbox, for example, flips the B and A buttons. PC games let the player customize all their controls, so the traditional 'accept and go back' buttons of A and B would have to be changed. Then, of course, the PlayStation platforms don’t have A or B buttons at all.</p><p>As for the Konami Code in action, here are a few of our favorite inclusions outside of Gradius and Contra:</p><ul><li>Tetris (NES version): Turns the current Tetronimo into the much-loved l piece</li><li>Silent Hill 3: Entering the Konami Code unlocks a Sailor Moon outfit</li><li>Bioshock Infinite: Unlocks the special hardest gameplay mode without having to complete the game first</li><li>Dead by Daylight: Gives the player a special equipable charm</li><li>Discord (yes, the chat platform): Grants access to a game of Snake</li></ul><h3 id=\"what-is-#1-the-konami-code?\">What is #1 the Konami Code?</h3><p>The number one use of the Konami cheat code has to be from its use in Contra for the NES.

Now, the battle between the two mediums is one of the hottest topics in the entertainment industry. Augmented reality and virtual reality are expected to be two game-changing platforms in the years ahead, with projections suggesting the combined market could be <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https://www.acumenresearchandconsulting.com/augmented-reality-and-virtual-reality-market\" rel=\"nofollow\">worth $451.5 billion</a>.</p><p>Which will be the bigger technology in the AR vs VR battle? Which side of the fence do you sit on? If you don’t know the answers to those questions yet, or simply want to understand better, read on.</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\">{{banner:middleraidorc}}</p><p>Before we start to debate AR vs VR, it’s important to define what the technologies are.</p><h2 id=\"definition-of-ar\">Definition of AR</h2><p>AR stands for augmented reality, which happens when a digitalized image is projected onto the real world. Pokémon Go was a prime example of an AR game, and the 2016 offering from Niantic helped to push the technology into the mainstream. In the hugely popular title, players could hold up their phone screens and see the famous Japanese monsters superimposed on their everyday surroundings. Players could battle each other in a <a href=\"/en/glossary/1v1/\">1v1 situation</a> as well.</p><figure class=\"image\"><img src=\"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2023/ar-vs-vr-2.webp\" alt=\"AR glasses\"></figure><p>AR is already being used in a <i>range of industries</i>, but the most common way to access it is through a phone screen. Soon, though, it’s expected that AR glasses will go mainstream. That will open a whole world of new possibilities, with users potentially able to witness complex things in front of them. If you’ve seen Tony Stark playfully move digitalized images in front of his eyes, that’s how AR could one day look. This could be the next stage for computers, and users may not need to look at digital content through traditional screens in the future.</p><p>It's also important to note the difference between AR and <a href=\"/en/blog/what-is-arg/\">ARG games</a>. ARG stands for alternate reality game, and these are niche offerings that combine elements of digitalization alongside real-world aspects. For instance, players may solve puzzles in the real world that take them to websites with further clues to solve.</p><h2 id=\"definition-of-vr\">Definition of VR</h2><p>In the AR vs VR debate, VR is a different beast to AR. VR exists <i>solely </i>in a virtual world and doesn’t include any elements of the real world. When you use VR, you put on a headset and get transported to a digitalized landscape. This could be a fantasy world, or it could be a real-world experience that has been recorded for VR headset wearers to enjoy.</p><figure class=\"image\"><img src=\"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2023/ar-vs-vr-4.webp\" alt=\"Is VR better than AR?\"></figure><p>There has been a vast amount of investment in VR, with Meta putting <i>billions </i>into its development. Mark Zuckerberg claimed to believe that more than one billion people could be living in the metaverse by 2030 – a sprawling virtual world where users can socialize, work, and play. In addition to that, VR games are on the rise. PlayStation already has <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https://www.playstation.com/en-il/ps-vr/\" rel=\"nofollow\">its own VR offerings</a>, and these are going to get more detailed and advanced as the technology improves.</p><h2 id=\"ar-vs-vr---similarities\">AR vs VR - Similarities</h2><p>AR vs VR isn’t always going to be a battle for supremacy. It’s more likely that the two mediums will help push each other on and into the mainstream. They have plenty of similarities – AR users are likely to be interested in VR and vice versa.</p><p>You can probably guess the similarities in the AR vs VR debate, but here are a few key ones that you should take note of:</p><ul><li>Both technologies aim to offer immersive experiences in which users are plunged into digital environments. AR may exist in the real world, but there’s no doubt that AR enhances people’s perceptions of their surroundings. The Walking Dead: Our World, for instance, puts them at the center of a zombie apocalypse.</li><li>AR and VR both use digital interaction and similar hardware. In the future, both technologies will require users to wear headsets or glasses.</li><li>AR and VR are both subject to insanely fast technological advances. You’d better be ready to witness exponential growth with this hardware over the next few years.</li><li>Both contenders in the VR vs AR war encourage advanced content creation and could lead to a new way of sharing online. There are loads of innovative ways to use these technologies, and people who jump on them early should find great success.</li></ul><h2 id=\"ar-vs-vr-–-differences\">AR vs VR – Differences</h2><p>There are obviously plenty of similarities between the two mediums in the AR vs VR debate. However, you could argue that there are more <i>differences </i>between the two. Despite their destinies being intertwined, they are their own separate entities, and one could easily exist without the other.</p><p>The main difference between AR and VR is the fact that the former exists in the real world, while the latter takes place in a computer-generated world. AR enhances the real world with digital objects, while VR aims to disconnect users from the real world and transport them to new locations. Expanding upon that point, AR allows users to interact with real-world objects, while VR involves moving around virtual objects.</p><p>There are already some differences in the hardware between AR and VR, and these are likely to get bigger as the technologies progress. VR headsets are clunkier and cover more of the user’s head, while AR glasses are smaller and less awkward. AR could easily become integrated into simple glasses in the future, and maybe one day even contact lenses. It’s hard to imagine the same thing happening with VR headsets.</p><figure class=\"image\"><img src=\"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2023/ar-vs-vr-5.webp\" alt=\"VR means complete immersion\"></figure><p>There’s a chance that AR and VR will serve different purposes in the future, with gaming likely to blow up on one or the other. VR could be the best option for gaming, while AR may be used for more practical cases such as navigation assistance and medical visualization. Right now, VR games are pretty simple. There are basic worlds to explore along with some other mixed genres such as <a href=\"/en/glossary/roguelite/\">roguelite </a>titles. These offerings are only going to get bigger and better and will one day be as rich and detailed as console games.</p><p>VR and AR will both offer users ways of interacting, but the way they do so will differ greatly. Mark Zuckerberg is envisioning a sprawling VR world for people to socialize, which will transcend traditional chat rooms. AR encourages face-to-face meetups when users bond over shared experiences, such as Pokémon Go.</p><h2 id=\"ar-vs-vr-faqs\">AR vs VR FAQs</h2><h3 id=\"which-is-better:-ar-vs-vr?\">Which is Better: AR vs VR?</h3><p>There's one fundamental problem regarding this debate, since that’s a seriously <i>subjective </i>question. Some people are going to prefer AR, while others will veer towards VR. There’s no right or wrong answer here!</p><h3 id=\"is-oculus-a-vr-or-ar-device?\">Is Oculus a VR or AR Device?</h3><p>You may have heard of the Oculus range of headsets. These are VR devices, and they are leading the way in development as it stands. Oculus Studios is owned by Meta, who have invested heavily in its progression.</p><p>These devices have the potential to be ubiquitous in the future, especially when the metaverse comes to fruition. Thanks to the constant development and release of new generations, Oculus devices are now reasonably priced, and offer the best gateway for people who want to experience VR.</p><h3 id=\"what-is-an-example-of-ar?\">What is an Example of AR?</h3><p>If you’re looking for an example of AR, there are plenty of options to choose from on mobile. The great thing about AR is that you don’t need to buy glasses to use it – although the headsets doubtlessly enhance the experience tenfold. Some of the most popular AR games on the market include Angry Birds AR: Isle of Pigs, Five Nights at Freddy’s AR, and Jurassic World Alive.</p><h3 id=\"ar-vs-vr-vs-mr\">AR vs VR vs MR</h3><p>AR vs VR may not be the only battle in the future, as there’s also the concept of <i>MR</i>. This stands for Mixed Reality and is a combination of AR and VR. It seems that Apple is focusing on MR with its <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https://www.apple.com/apple-vision-pro/\" rel=\"nofollow\">Pro Vision</a> device. This headset will allow for VR and AR experiences and could have a huge impact on the overall industry.</p><h3 id=\"ar-vs-vr-–-which-will-you-choose?\">AR vs VR – Which Will You Choose?</h3><p>After reading this guide to the heated AR vs VR battle, which technology are you leaning toward? Do you feel like you have more of an affinity to AR or VR? Perhaps you’re interested in testing them both.

The PS4 high level of performance can handle the mix of a complex game and its high quality visuals and FX.</p><h2 id=\"ten-of-the-best-rpg-games-for-ps4-you-should-try-out\">10 of the Best RPG Games for PS4 You Should Try Out</h2><p>We narrowed the options down to ten titles for you, which can easily be regarded as the best RPG games on PS4:</p><h3 id=\"the-witcher-3:-wild-hunt\">1. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt</h3><p>If you ask among active gamers, chances are most will believe that The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is one of the best RPG games for PS4. Players become Geralt of Rivia and get completely immersed in a fantasy world packed full of monsters, diverse characters, and intrigue. Released in 2015, it was still regarded among the best PS4 RPG games in 2022.</p><p>The main storyline of the game from CD Projekt RED takes a long time to complete, and players can extend their time in this rich virtual land by completing a wide array of side quests. Players form bonds with characters that are so well-written and voiced that they feel a loss when the game is completed, knowing they can’t hang out with them anymore. There’s no doubt that this is one of the best RPG games for PS4, which also explains how the Netflix title of the same name came to be.</p><h3 id=\"final-fantasy-xv\">2. Final Fantasy XV</h3><p>Final Fantasy is one of the greatest RPG franchises of all time, and no list of the best RPG games for PS4 would be complete without an entry from the Square Enix series. With there being a few of the Japanese games on the console, it’s hard to pick just one. However, we decided that Final Fantasy XV was the greatest.</p><p>The 15th installment in the much-loved franchise was lauded for its blend of real-time combat and exceptional story. Like all great RPGs, this one had memorable characters that will stay with players for a long time.</p><h3 id=\"dark-souls-iii\">3. Dark Souls III</h3><p style=\"text-align:center;\" id=\"dark-souls-iii\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/cWBwFhUv1-8?si=7a8m_FCueQK7qMJ7\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>The Dark Souls trilogy from FromSoftware is regarded as one of the finest trios of RPG games ever made. The third and final offering, Dark Souls III, is easily the best of the lot, and it was a major commercial hit. The 2016 RPG sold more than three million copies in two months, highlighting the vast number of players who were hungry for the concluding chapter. Dark Souls III will appeal to players in search of gritty fantasy, and it has a heavy focus on combat.</p><h3 id=\"bloodborne\">4. Bloodborne</h3><p>FromSoftware are known for having made some of the best RPG games on the PS4, and another entry from the studio was Bloodborne in 2015. It shared many similarities with the Dark Souls series, with a dark fantastical theme. One of the main things that critics praised it for was the way it paid homage to the works of H.P. Lovecraft, and players felt like they’d stepped into the horrific worlds of the iconic author’s books.</p><h3 id=\"persona-5\">5. Persona 5</h3><p>Some would argue that Japanese studios are the top creators of the RPG genre. No doubt there have been some exceptional titles from the Asian country over the years, with Persona 5 from P-Studio being up there with the best PS4 RPG games. The game takes place in Tokyo, and players get the chance to discover what it would be like to be a vigilante in the bustling city. If you haven't given this game a chance just yet, it might be time.</p><h3 id=\"fallout-4\">6. Fallout 4</h3><p>Titles that transport players to other worlds or situations that are vastly different than their own, are the prime RPGs for PS4. Fallout 4 is one game that takes place in the real world - but, and that's a big one - the time is a fictional <i>post-apocalyptic</i> future. Players get the chance to imagine what it would be like to survive in this bleak wasteland and have to scavenge for resources to help with their mission! Talk about gloomy…</p><h3 id=\"monster-hunter:-world\">7.

Kingdom Hearts III</h3><p>The Kingdom Hearts series has been around for a long time, with the first title coming in 2002 on the PlayStation 2. Players enjoy these titles from Square Enix because they cross over with other content from the Japanese studio. Kingdom Hearts III was the 12th installment in the long-running franchise and was the best-selling game in the series. There’s a lot of hack-and-slash <a href=\"/en/glossary/1v1/\">1v1</a> combat to appease action fans, but some great storytelling as well. This is easily one of the best RPG games on PS4.</p><h3 id=\"nier:-automata\">9. Nier: Automata</h3><p>For anyone who loved the Drakengard series, Nier: Automata is a must-play game. The offering from PlatinumGames is both a spinoff and a sequel to the classic RPGs from Yoko Taro. The game imagines an epic war between aliens and humans, fought with machines. The story was heavily praised by critics, and it’s up there with the best RPG games on PS4.</p><h3 id=\"dragon-quest-xi:-echoes-of-an-elusive-age\">10.

It’s something that many developers have been striving to answer over the years, and this interest has increased with the rise of augmented reality. ARGs existed before the actual technology came along, but have been enhanced tenfold since augmented reality became popular.</p><p>ARG means <i>Alternate Reality Game</i> and is a type of interactive storytelling method that uses some digital and some real-world elements. You may have even encountered an ARG as it has been used as a marketing tool to build up hype for upcoming games.</p><p>It may even use <a href=\"/en/blog/ar-games/\">technology like AR,</a> or it may use other stuff like videos and text. And, it obviously has a whole other meaning from the iconic 90s catchphrase spotlighting “arg” (all you Buffy fans out there know exactly <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https://screenrant.com/buffy-slayer-grr-argh-vampire-mutant-enemy/\" rel=\"nofollow\">what we're talking about</a>). Read on to learn everything you need to know about ARGs and find out which are the most famous ones around.

The offering from Jeffrey Lieber, J. J. Abrams, and Damon Lindelof were criticized in its later seasons, but it is still up there with the most impressive series of all time. Indeed, it continues to influence the streaming era, with many contemporary offerings inspired by it.</p><p>The Lost Experience was connected to the TV show and added more depth to the story. It was a huge hit among diehard fans, as it provided them with opportunities to find additional information about the show. There were loads of puzzles to solve, websites to visit, and even phone numbers to call.</p><h3 id=\"year-zero\">Year Zero</h3><p>ARGs have emerged as a great marketing tool for bands who want to promote their material in new and innovative ways. Year Zero was a prime example of this, and it was used to promote the Nine Inch Nails album of the same name that was released in 2007.</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/fhrnChYf23k?si=Lm6ioUhqHtrWnNfh\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>The ARG offering was released by 42 Entertainment and ran for more than 18 months. It drew a lot of inspiration from dystopian fiction like Nineteen Eighty-Four and took place in the year 2022. It included phone calls and cryptic websites, along with real-world events such as concerts from the band.</p><h3 id=\"perplex-city\">Perplex City</h3><p>Perplex City was a unique concept that combined a physical collectible card game with online elements. Players had to gather cards in the real world that had clues. These clues led them to a hidden artifact known as the Receda Cube, which is hidden somewhere in the real world. It came with a whopping financial reward for the winning player as well.</p><h3 id=\"the-beast-(a.i.)\">The Beast (A.I.)</h3><p>AI may be everywhere in 2023, but back in 2001, it was a relatively unknown prospect in the mainstream. Steven Spielberg released A.I. Artificial Intelligence that year, a film that imagined what it would be like if an android had the ability to love.</p><p>To promote the picture, Microsoft released The Beast (A.I.), which was designed to expand the film’s universe. The title has often been described as one of the earliest and most influential ARGs, and it involved scanning websites, calling phone numbers, and solving a variety of puzzles in both the real and virtual worlds.</p><h3 id=\"i-love-bees\">I Love Bees</h3><p style=\"text-align:center;\" id=\"i-love-bees\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/bJQJqlZXQtk?si=OjDLH_t-WBgtYsrm\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>Sometimes ARGs are used to market games in other offshoots of the entertainment industry. I Love Bees was one such title, and it was launched in 2004 as a campaign to promote Halo 2. The game involved players having to work together with an AI entity that had crash-landed on Earth. It was one of the best examples of how ARGs can be engaging promotional tools.</p><h2 id=\"faqs\">FAQs</h2><h3 id=\"what-are-args-(augmented-reality-games)?\">What Are ARGs (Augmented Reality Games)?</h3><p>ARG Games make up a rather <i>niche </i>section of the gaming industry, and they aren’t restricted to only including certain elements. The alternate reality games blend real-world aspects with digital but aren’t always recognizable as games in the traditional sense.</p><figure class=\"image\"><img src=\"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2023/arg-2.webp\" alt=\"ARG Games can incorporate any part of reality\"></figure><p>A basic ARG definition is a title that includes <i>real-world activities</i>, such as a treasure hunt, but also features digital aspects such as audio, text, images, and videos. Players may even have to perform certain tasks on a screen. These could sometimes be referred to as some of the <a href=\"/en/blog/realistic-games/\">most realistic games</a>, as they occur within the player’s own world.</p><h3 id=\"what-is-an-example-of-an-arg?\">What Is an Example of an ARG?</h3><p>An example of an ARG could be when a band wants to promote a new album. It might post cryptic clues on its website for fans to follow. They may be tasked with following a trail in the real world, which eventually leads them to the new release. This could involve scanning QR codes to find secret videos, images, or audio. There’s no limit to what ARGs could involve, but they are defined by the fact that they exist within both a real-world and virtual setting.</p><figure class=\"image\"><img src=\"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2023/arg-3.webp\" alt=\"ARGs are very often used to promote new products\"></figure><p>Players who take part in ARGs may <a href=\"/en/resource/generator/fantasy-name-generator/\">give themselves fantasy names</a>, just as they would with their characters in digital games. This helps to separate fact from fiction when players embark on adventures.</p><h3 id=\"what’s-the-difference-from-ar?\">What’s the Difference from AR?</h3><p>Although ARGs may sometimes use augmented reality, they aren’t always augmented reality games. That’s why they have their niche category. <a href=\"/en/blog/ar-games/\">AR games</a> always use augmented reality technology and superimpose digital images on the player’s surroundings.</p><p>It’s also important to note that ARGs are not usually related to <a href=\"/en/blog/vr-games/\">VR games</a>. Virtual reality titles exist solely within a digitalized setting, with players wearing a headset that immerses them in that universe.</p><figure class=\"image\"><img src=\"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2023/arg-4.webp\" alt=\"Go on an adventure with ARGs!\"></figure><h2 id=\"hunt-for-some-args-today\">Hunt for Some ARGs Today</h2><p>It’s always worth keeping an eye out and checking gaming websites to see if there are any new ARGs to take part in. Sometimes these games are so secretive that you won’t hear about them unless you’re in the loop. So, to paraphrase Gwen Stefani, what you waiting for?

This is especially the case for game titles, where something like TF2 might refer to Team Fortress 2, Titanfall 2, or Thunder Force 2. Thankfully, the terms PvE and PvP are some of the better defined and explored, but they still require a little explanation if you’re fresh to the world of gaming.</p><p>To help you along, we’ll cover exactly what these terms mean, and what makes the PvP vs PvE debate such a hot topic. Understanding both sides of the coin will help you better define the games you like, and even guide you to finding titles better suited to your taste in the future. With that in mind, let’s jump into the actual conversation.</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\">{{banner:middleraidorc}}</p><h2 id=\"what-is-better---pvp-or-pve?\">What Is Better - PvP or PvE?</h2><p>The question of PvP vs PvE is an entirely personal one, where there is no one best overall answer. PvE vs PvP is all about what each player prefers, so the answer is ultimately <i>up to you.</i></p><h2 id=\"what-is-pve,-and-what-does-it-stand-for?\">What Is PvE, and What Does It Stand For?</h2><p>The term PvE refers to <i>Player versus Environment</i>. This is where the player in a video game competes against the game world and the computer, not other players. In the PvE vs PvP split, PvE often includes <a href=\"/en/blog/top-casual-games/\">more casual games</a>, but this isn't always the case.</p><p>PvE titles tend to be single-player experiences, and because of this, they can be more strictly guided than their counterparts in the PvP vs PvE world. Player versus environment games ignores the randomness and unpredictable behavior that human opponents thrive on.</p><figure class=\"image\"><img src=\"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2023/pve-vs-pvp-4.webp\" alt=\"PvE Meaning\"></figure><p>Exactly what the term environment means will change depending on the game. It might make us think of the untamed wilderness, but in the PvE vs PvP split, the term is used much more broadly. The environment in PvE can mean an enemy monster, it can be a pit of lava, or it can be a CPU-controlled card game player.</p><p>The name PvE is essentially just a catch-all which means a video game where the challenge comes from the game world without opponent player intervention. Games with combat apply this term most of all, but it can be more loosely applied to other forms of computer challenge too. </p><h2 id=\"what-is-pvp,-and-what-does-it-mean?\">What Is PvP, and What Does It Mean?</h2><p>The other side of the PvP vs PvE equation stands for <i>Player versus Player</i>. This is when the main opponents you’ll be facing are other humans. These humans might be right next to you in the case of titles like fighting games, or they could be on the opposite side of the world in <a href=\"/en/blog/rts-vs-tbs/\">turn-based strategy</a> PvP games. </p><figure class=\"image\"><img src=\"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2023/pve-vs-pvp-3.webp\" alt=\"PvP Meaning\"></figure><p>Many of the <a href=\"/en/blog/popular-games/\">most popular games right now</a> like Counter-Strike and Dota 2 embrace PvP at their core. This is because of the types of games in the PvE vs PvP world, PvP involves the thrill and reward of directly fighting and overcoming another human player. Humans can learn and react like computers can't, and some players love what a victory in this type of competition represents. </p><p>Like in PvE, PvP titles aren't limited by genre. PvP can refer to fighting games, shooters, RPGs, racing games, card games, or any other interactive experience that has you directly facing a human. PvP combat doesn't have to be fair, as one side might have a massive gameplay or skill advantage over another.</p><h2 id=\"pve-vs-pvp\">PvE vs PvP</h2><figure class=\"image\"><img src=\"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2023/pve-vs-pvp-2.webp\" alt=\"PvE vs PVP\"></figure><p>For a direct comparison of PvP vs PvE, consider the following: </p><ul><li>PvE is when your opponent is the computer and its world</li><li>PvP is when your opponent is another player </li></ul><p>There’s <i>a lot</i> of debate in the gaming community as to which of PvP vs PvE is better, and this applies to gamers of all ages and platforms. From those who only <a href=\"/en/blog/mac-games/\">play Mac games</a> to people who solely enjoy console shooters, it’s common to see arguments about which is better, which is more fun, and which makes you a “real gamer”. </p><p>Which side of the PvE and PvP spectrum you prefer will depend on how much you like to relax while playing, the types of challenges you enjoy overcoming, and which genres best represent your interests. Like the PC/Mac/Xbox/PlayStation/Nintendo debates, there aren’t any wrong answers, as long as you understand that your choice only really applies to you.</p><h2 id=\"tl;dr---what-is-the-difference-between-pve-and-pvp?\">TL;DR - What is the difference between PvE and PvP?</h2><p>PvE is when the player is fighting the environment and the challenges within it. PvP is when the player <i>directly</i> fights other players. </p><h2 id=\"the-pve-and-pvp-hybrid\">The PvE and PvP Hybrid</h2><p>One final point to remember is that while we can define games within the PvP vs PvE world as mostly belonging to one side, many titles also feature considerable overlap.</p><p><a href=\"/en/blog/best-mmorpgs/\">MMORPGs</a> are perhaps the best example of this, where players in their digital worlds can focus on which of the PvP vs PvE elements they enjoy most. Some players might never touch the PvP in an MMORPG, while others might compete so fiercely that their entire character is built around PvP combat. </p><p>Some games even fuse the concepts into single game modes. Dota 2, for example, has players not just competing against each other, but also against the computer-controlled towers, team creeps, and special stronger neutral units. In this case, the game is typically regarded as PvP since that’s where the focus lies, but remembering the PvE aspects can also be key to claiming victory.</p><h3 id=\"what-is-pvp-vs-pve-vs-pvc?\">What is PvP vs PvE vs PVC?</h3><p>PvP (player versus player) is when players compete against other players.

It's more like a generally accepted term for the titles that strive for <a href=\"/en/blog/realistic-games/\">the best graphics</a> and <a href=\"/en/blog/open-world-games/\">biggest worlds</a>. While not all of the best AAA games fit this mold, that's always going to be the case with such a nebulous label. </p><p>2023 has been a great year for AAA games, so we want to look at the best AAA games released as of the writing of this article.

Offering more saber styles, more to explore, and challenging combat, this AAA title is one of the best games that really makes you feel like a Jedi. </p><h3>Street Fighter 6 </h3><p style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/rN_PBAK5YyM?si=TwtIuhBBqWuls_ie\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>After years of troubled development, SF6 proved that delayed AAA games can still surprise you.

With new challenges, new mechanics, and new sites to see and explore, Tears of the Kingdom gave Switch owners one more great title in their AAA games lineup. </p><h3>Starfield </h3><p style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/kfYEiTdsyas?si=LOeFiDWI0E_9_IqO\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>Starfield is the latest release on this AAA games list, and while it's fun at launch, we're expecting it to only get better over time. Mods and fan fixes are crucial in Bethesda titles, and with Starfield, we're expecting great things not just for next year, but the next decade to come. </p><h3>What’s the Difference Between an A and AAA Game? </h3><p>The term A games, like AA games, tend to refer to titles with lower budgets and less visibility that are still of high quality. Like AAA titles, these can be anything from console games and PC titles to <a href=\"/en/blog/best-ios-games/\">iOS games</a>, though they're most common on PC thanks to the PC offering the most open marketplace.</p><h3>Are all AAA games $70?</h3><p>No. The price of AAA games is a hot topic of debate in the gaming community, where the $70 price point is a new development discussed by AAA developers. At the current trajectory, AAA games are more likely to embrace the $70 price point going forward. </p><h2>AAA Games On the Horizon </h2><p>This article was written in mid-September of 2023, and several upcoming AAA games are likely to blow our socks off even by the end of <i>this</i> year. For fans of big open worlds and stealth gameplay, Assassin’s Creed Mirage is likely to continue the series’ much-loved legacy. Racing fans can look forward to Forza Motorsport, which is set to take the famous racing game into the new generation of Xbox systems. </p><p>Marvel's Spider-Man 2 for the PS5 is another title we can’t wait to get our webbed fingers on, as a sequel to one of the PS4’s best. Even Nintendo’s 2D fans have something to look forward to, as Super Mario Bros Wonder looks to recapture the classic appeal on the Switch, alongside the requisite range of fun new powerups and multiplayer gameplay.</p><p>The latest console generation might have had a weak start, but in 2023, it’s really starting to hit its stride in classic, <a href=\"/en/blog/ar-vs-vr/\">AR and VR gaming</a>. The same seems true for 2024, which is as exciting for gamers, and terrifying for their wallets.

AR games provide a new way to integrate classic gameplay into the real world, and while that produces challenges, it provides many new opportunities.</p><p>AR games can do what traditional gaming alone can’t, and while we’re still technologically limited in what AR games can do, their best titles have still achieved astonishingly fun results. What are AR games anyway, and which are the best titles you can play in 2023? Let's have a look.</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\">{{banner:middleraidorc}}</p><h2 id=\"the-top-ar-games-of-2023\">The Top AR Games of 2023</h2><h3 id=\"pokémon-go\">Pokémon GO</h3><p>No list of AR games would be complete without the first big title that set the world on fire. Pokémon GO was a revelation when it launched back in 2016, as it brought mobile AR games to the masses.</p><p>The idea is simple, Pokémon GO uses maps to semi-randomly place Pokémon down. You go, you catch, and you make progress by exercising and taking over local hotspots. This was a genius way to introduce AR games through the most profitable media franchise of all time, and the gamble by Niantic more than paid off.</p><h3 id=\"angry-birds-ar:-isle-of-pigs\">Angry Birds AR: Isle of Pigs</h3><p>Speaking of games that already made it big on other platforms before heading to AR, Angry Birds on mobiles was one of the titles that really reached across borders. The game was a simple Crush the Castle clone, but it struck a chord with players like its inspiration never did.</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/NzsRtkZoXvc?si=SPa4zwoBLM0Fo6hP\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>To play Angry Birds AR, you simply aim your camera at a piece of flat ground and the game produces a tower for you to knock down. Aiming a first-person slingshot, this is one of those AR games that can work even better in AR than in its original form. With 70 levels and all the classic Angry Birds characters, we just wish this game had more content to fly through.</p><h3 id=\"zrx:-zombie,-run\">ZRX: Zombies, Run!</h3><p>Originally released in 2020, Zombies, Run! takes the idea of AR games to the frontier of mobile exercise. When this game arrived, exercise apps were already a fantastic way to stay in shape, and this title gamified their systems to new heights.</p><p>Filled with different missions that typically last around 30-40 minutes, ZRX also lets you build a base, check your progress and achievement, and now even crosses over with Marvel properties. AR games can be about more than just fun, and this title proves it.</p><h3 id=\"wallame\">WallaMe</h3><p>If you’re after AR games that lean more heavily into real-world exploration, then WallaMe might be exactly what you’re looking for. This title uses AR functionality to let you hide messages in the real world, kind of like being a graffiti artist without having to spend on paint or risk being arrested.</p><p>WallaMe is an interesting kind of cooperative experience, where you can talk with friends and strangers and share ideas and a love of special places. Maybe you would like to express a great time you had with a friend, or even point out special nearby spots that other players might have missed. Few AR games provide the opportunities to do this like WallaMe does, making it just as much a fun communication tool as an AR game.</p><h3 id=\"reality-clash:-ar-combat-game\">Reality Clash: AR Combat Game</h3><p>Some AR games allow PVP combat, but few approach the concept as directly as Reality Clash. This title lets you take place in AR combat either in person or across the internet as you claim real physical zones as home bases.</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/gmSy40i9DBk?si=xBOLAO3kXfY3fEId\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>To play Reality Clash you’ll navigate and do battle while holding your phone in front of you as a gunsight, dodging and shooting to take down your opponents. While you’ll still need to be careful to not bump into anything, this form of engagement is still something you'll get lost in. If you want to check out if <a href=\"/en/blog/pvp-and-pve/\">PvP vs PvE</a> AR games are for you, consider this one as a measuring stick.</p><h3 id=\"cosmic-frontline-ar\">Cosmic Frontline AR</h3><p>What would happen if you could bring space into your living room? Your lungs would probably object, but forget that point and consider the great space combat experience available from Cosmic Frontline AR. This game has you building a spaceship fleet to engage in battles with <a href=\"/en/glossary/npc/\">NPCs (non-player characters)</a> in front of your eyes.</p><p>Despite how hectic space battles would probably be, the automated way that fights play out in Cosmic Frontline makes it one of the more surprisingly relaxing AR games. It might not be as relaxing as a nap in zero gravity, but it's as close as most of us will probably get.</p><h3 id=\"five-nights-at-freddys-ar\">Five Nights at Freddy's AR</h3><p>The Five Nights at Freddy's series has a reputation for being frightening, which makes us wonder if making it one of the <a href=\"/en/blog/realistic-games/\">more realistic games</a> on this list is a great idea. FNAF AR has you scanning for intruders as you prepare for the jump scares the games are famous for.</p><p>Malfunctioning animatronics are even more terrifying than regular animatronics, and having them leap out at you in your home where you feel safest can be literal nightmare fuel. Just remember to hold onto your phone tightly so you don’t throw it across the room, and that some AR games are best played in short bursts. The last thing you want is the Tetris Effect showing up with these creepy robotic intruders.</p><h3 id=\"knightfall-ar\">Knightfall AR</h3><p><a href=\"/en/games/genre/tower-defense-games/\">Tower defense games</a> were some of the biggest hits in early web gaming, and Knightfall AR brings all their classic fun directly to you in the real world. Find a flat surface like a coffee table or a floor, and Knightfall places down a virtual castle to defend, and a parade of attackers who don't care that they've lost their invites.</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/JoXiu-2NsPw?si=dmXOFJIoNJJp-Zw6\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>Using arrows, catapults, and whatever taunts you think can break through chainmail, Knightfall’s single-player-only gameplay is a great fit for both newcomers and tower defense veterans. There's a lot of style in this game, which is a fantastic look on both Apple and Android devices.</p><h3 id=\"a-new-world\">A New World</h3><p>The true promise in pushing AR to the next level comes with smaller and more portable glasses-type devices like Apple’s Vision Pro. These will encourage greater activity and flexibility, and bring existing physical games like laser tag to a whole new level.</p><p>Until then, AR on mobile is still at an impressive standard, and its popularity is only growing by the year. It's only been a short while, but AR has proven it's one to watch. Whether defending your base, watching out for mechanical interlopers, or engaging in the never-ending avian/porcine war, there's something in AR for everyone.</p><h2 id=\"faq\">FAQ</h2><h3 id=\"what-does-ar-mean-in-games?\">What does AR mean in games?</h3><p>AR stands for <i>augmented reality</i>. This is where virtual imagery is placed over the real world through the use of cameras and screens. The most common use of AR in gaming is with smartphones, but the real potential is slowly being uncovered in next-generation glasses-type devices like Apple's Vision Pro.</p><h3 id=\"what-games-are-best-known-for-using-ar?\">What games are best known for using AR?</h3><p>The most famous games to use AR are Pokémon GO and Angry Birds AR: Isle of Pigs. Their titles are simple to jump into and have proven enormous revelations in showing the world just a glimpse of AR's true potential. These would be system sellers if everybody didn't already own a smartphone!</p><h3 id=\"what-is-the-difference-between-vr-and-ar-gaming?\">What is the difference between VR and AR gaming?</h3><p>In <i>virtual reality (VR)</i> the entire displayed world is created by the computer. In AR, virtual elements are placed on top of the real world. Thanks to this approach, VR requires a full headset, but AR games can work extremely well on a smartphone too.</p><h3 id=\"what-equipment-is-needed-for-ar?\">What equipment is needed for AR?</h3><p>Most AR games can be played perfectly from smartphones released in the last five years, and often older devices too.</p><h3 id=\"are-ar-games-expensive?\">Are AR games expensive?</h3><p>It depends on the title. Many AR games are cheap or free, and few that are released yet will be as expensive as traditional video games. This could change in the future, however, as experiences expand.</p><h3 id=\"can-ar-games-work-with-touch-control?\">Can AR games work with touch control?</h3><p>While you can't touch a projection directly, there are devices from companies like HaptX and MANUS Meta that integrate haptic feedback into specially designed gloves to generate feelings of touch. Future incarnations of this technology could enable realistic sensations of touch with AR imagery.</p><h3 id=\"what-is-the-best-ar-game?\">What is the best AR game?</h3><p>Like every other video game, this depends on your taste. There are enough genres that everyone should be able to find the title that stands out the most to them.</p><h3 id=\"how-much-room-do-i-need-for-ar?\">How much room do I need for AR?</h3><p>The room needed for AR will change depending on the title. Some require an open room-sized space in front of you, others are best used outdoors, and some can require a small flat table-sized surface.</p>","date":"9/13/2021"},"images":{"preview":{"alt":"AR Games (Alternate Reality Games)","href":"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2023/ar-games.webp"},"authorAvatar":{"href":"//cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/portal/common/avatars/default_avatar.jpg","sizes":[]}},"template_options":{"compositeId":"13421"}},{"links":{"link":"/en/blog/video-game-villains/"},"strings":{"title":"The Greatest Video Game Villains of All Time","category":"Insights","author":"PLARIUM STAFF","readTime":"360000","description":"<p><i>'A hero is only as good as his villain'</i> is a line long used in media, and it might be true more in video games than anywhere else.

The best video game villains aren't just those who look great or act menacingly, they're those who truly explore what it means to be a test of skill.</p><p>With those ideas in mind, we created this list of the <i>seven </i>best video game villains of all time that you can fight. From the most evil video game villains to worthy foes with a more comical bend, these are the opponents you'll remember long after the credits roll.</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\">{{banner:middleraidanger}}</p><h2 id=\"the-top-7-video-game-villains-to-have-graced-our-screens\">The Top 7 Video Game Villains to Have Graced Our Screens</h2><h3 id=\"1.-king-bowser-from-mario\">1. King Bowser from Mario</h3><p>King of the Koopas, Bowser isn't the first of Mario's video game villains (that dubious honor goes to Donkey Kong), but he is the most memorable. This dragon turtle has been a thorn in Mario's side since the original Super Mario Bros.</p><p>Bowser’s hobbies include kidnapping princesses, breathing fire, and pushing players off the track while racing go-karts on a rainbow in outer space. Appearing in 69 games as of this article, Bowser is iconic, and apparently not such a bad guy. After all, why would Mario invite Bowser to parties or play tennis if he didn’t bring something special to the table?</p><h3 id=\"2.-ganon/ganondorf-from-the-legend-of-zelda\">2. Ganon/Ganondorf from The Legend of Zelda</h3><p>There's always been debate over how the world of The Legend of Zelda works. Is each game a retelling of the same legend, or does each title represent a new incarnation in an eternal battle? What we do know is that Ganon/Ganondorf is one of the most famous evil video game characters ever.</p><p>This might seem a little confusing to include two names but think of these video game villains as the same guy in different forms. Ganondorf is the name he takes when appearing in a (mostly) human form, whereas Ganon is the title taken when in literal beast mode.</p><p>While kidnapping is par for the course for this man-beast, more important to his overall gameplan is the theft of the Triforce. Once complete, he aims to take his place among the video game villains' pantheon by remaking the world. Of course, he has to get through a plucky adventurer in a green tunic first...</p><h3 id=\"3.-sephiroth-from-final-fantasy-7\">3. Sephiroth from Final Fantasy 7</h3><p style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/rfomXPypkHE?si=mtJ1Uddz316U5zzX\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>Final Fantasy 7 was the game that popularized JRPGs in the West, and Sephiroth played a huge part in that. A devastatingly powerful force, Sephiroth is one of those video game villains known across the world even decades later. Armed with this signature longsword the Masamune, and hair that is rumored to require an entire bottle of conditioner with each wash, Sephiroth is a nearly unstoppable force. We can't wait to see this guy fleshed out more as the FF7 remakes continue.</p><h3 id=\"4.-dr.-robotnik-from-sonic\">4. Dr. Robotnik from Sonic</h3><p>Dr. Robotnik, or Eggman as he is mockingly known, is a power-mad scientist with no shortage of ingenuity and, apparently, funds. Robotnik counts himself as among the video game villains who face the most defeats, yet he never lets that dull his confidence. Sure, he probably could make the world a peaceful utopia, but he doesn’t want to make the world a peaceful utopia, he wants to turn animals into robots.</p><p>Dr. Robotnik is such an iconic foe, that not only was he played by Jim Carrey in the cinematic adaptation of the game, but <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VIIkB07ZtHQ\" rel=\"nofollow\">his theme</a> has also been covered many times in a plethora of different music styles and instruments!</p><h3 id=\"5.-glados-from-portal\">5. GLaDOS from Portal</h3><p>Borrowing heavily from the equally brilliant SHODAN from System Shock, GLaDOS is a robotic video game villain built to test the player's character. The problem is, she's a little too good at her job, and the effort into programming her dedication apparently wasn't equaled by investment in morality circuits. Whether taunting the player with non-existent baked goods or setting gun turrets after us, this video game villain is hilarious and memorable. If only somebody could fix her.</p><h3 id=\"6.-m.-bison-from-street-fighter\">6. M. Bison from Street Fighter</h3><p style=\"text-align:center;\" id=\"6.-m.-bison-from-street-fighter\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/ixFIQ3omLQE?si=6Qg0OVBsQjG0fJtW\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>M. Bison has been the long-running antagonist in Street Fighter. This video game villain uses Psycho Power and his shady Shadaloo organization to try to take control of the world. Noted for his ability to fly at enemies and rock a purple coat, M. Bison is a popular video game villain who so far hasn’t appeared in the latest title (thanks to being dead in the canon).</p><p>Interestingly, Bison is known as Dictator internationally thanks to name discrepancies between the Japanese versions of the game and those of other areas. Apparently developer Capcom thought they might find problems if they kept their boxer character named Mike Byson in America.</p><h3 id=\"7.-vaas-from-far-cry-3\">7. Vaas from Far Cry 3</h3><p>Vass is an outlier on this list of video game villains because it’s not his gameplay that stands out the most, it’s his character. Vaas set the standard of memorable Far Cry villains, as he repeatedly questions your understanding of insanity, all while being the most intimidating character on an island of psychopaths.</p><h2 id=\"faqs\">FAQs</h2><h3 id=\"who-is-the-most-famous-video-game-villain?\">Who is the most famous video game villain?</h3><p>There are a couple of possible choices here, but by legacy, the most well-known of the video game villains would have to be Bowser. He's been a constant meanie to generations of gamers, and judging by his latest mainline appearance in Mario Odyssey, he isn't stopping anytime soon.</p><h3 id=\"who-is-the-strongest-video-game-villain?\">Who is the strongest video game villain?</h3><p>This is a hotly debated topic, but of all the characters created especially for video games, <a href=\"/en/blog/mythological-rpg-fantasy-game-characters/\">RPG characters</a> in video game villains can stand out the most. Sephiroth is a real contender here, with his Supernova attack destroying planets on the way to demolish the player's party.</p><h3 id=\"what-games-can-you-play-as-the-villain?\">What games can you play as the villain?</h3><p>Some games let you play as video game villains in repeat playthroughs, as DLC, or in sequels. The most common way to play as video game villains is in fighting games, where boss characters join the roster to exchange fisticuffs.</p><h2 id=\"your-villain-of-choice\">Your Villain of Choice</h2><p>This entry for video game villains might seem like cheating, but it’s always true that video game villains that stick with us are reflections of personal taste. From our personal loves, fears, or frustrations, the most famous opponents don’t need a home in AAA PC or console games to stand out.</p><p>The L block from Tetris might be your worst enemy thanks to bad experiences, and that’s (strange but) fine. <a href=\"/en/blog/how-play-flash-games/\">Flash games in 2023</a>, or what they’re morphed into, can also generate some famous boss encounters thanks to putting up a particularly memorable or fun fight.</p><p>We've heard people talk about dungeon bosses like Fire Knight from <a href=\"/en/game/raid-shadow-legends/\">RAID</a> as their favorites, while others hate Spider thanks to a general distaste of arachnids. No matter what <a href=\"/en/blog/gaming-platforms/\">gaming platforms</a> and titles you enjoy, great video game villains are the ones that strike fear in your heart, or which pump adrenaline through your veins.</p><p>There are no wrong answers, except, maybe, the Pokémon Magikarp.</p>","date":"9/18/2023"},"images":{"preview":{"alt":"The Greatest Video Game Villains of All Time","href":"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2023/video-game-villains-1.webp"},"authorAvatar":{"href":"//cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/portal/common/avatars/default_avatar.jpg","sizes":[]}},"template_options":{"compositeId":"16445"}},{"links":{"link":"/en/blog/konami-code/"},"strings":{"title":"What Exactly Is the Konami Code?","category":"Insights","author":"PLARIUM STAFF","readTime":"300000","description":"<p>The history of mainstream console games dates back to at least the 1980s when the home system became affordable and took the world by storm. This era set many ideas followed for decades, from genres to series, control types, and, of course, cheat codes.</p><p>In the world of cheat codes, none hold the ongoing legacy and fame that the Konami Code does. Still in use decades later, this callback to gaming’s early console days might be confusing for younger readers, or those who grew up on PC. So, what’s the Konami code anyway, where did it come from, and how do we still see it used in the modern era?</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\">{{banner:middleraidorc}}</p><h3 id=\"what-did-the-original-konami-code-do?\">What Did the Original Konami Code Do?</h3><p>The original Konami Code was used in a port of the 1985 arcade <a href=\"/en/blog/space-mmo/\">space-shooter</a> game Gradius. When entered on the pause screen, it instantly provides the player with all the powerups that the player normally collects gradually.</p><h2 id=\"what-is-the-konami-code?\">What Is the Konami Code?</h2><p>The Konami Code is a series of inputs that when used in the right game and place, provides some sort of cheat or unlockable feature. The inputs for this code are traditionally the following:</p><figure class=\"image\"><img src=\"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2023/konami-code-2.webp\" alt=\"The Konami Code\"></figure><p style=\"text-align:center;\">Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, B, A</p><h2 id=\"where-did-the-konami-code-come-from?\">Where Did the Konami Code Come From?</h2><p>The Konami Code originated from an NES port of a side-scrolling arcade shooter called Gradius. Games at the time, especially those which came from arcades, were notoriously difficult. This difficulty made them great at eating money from players, but it also created issues in game testing.</p><p>Game testers need to be able to play through the entire title to check for errors, so if they can’t survive, then the quality of the game can suffer. As a solution, a developer of the game named Kazuhisa Hashimoto included the code to help testers.</p><p>When entered on the pause screen of Gradius, the Konami Code provides all ship upgrades, making the player much more powerful. This helped the testers finish the game, and perform better quality assurance as a result.</p><p>Funnily enough, the Konami Code wasn’t originally meant to stay in Gradius. It was simply forgotten about when the game shipped, and later iterations didn’t remove the code for fear it could introduce glitches and bugs. When the players learned about the code, it became famous, and Konami leaned into this fame.</p><h3 id=\"is-the-konami-code-still-used?\">Is the Konami Code Still Used?</h3><p>The Konami Code is still used today, but it's used differently. Games today tend not to focus on lives-based gameplay, so adding extra lives or power-ups would often be <i>pointless</i>. Instead, the modern Konami code usually <a href=\"/en/glossary/new-game-plus/\">unlocks bonus content </a>or hard difficulty modes.</p><h2 id=\"going-beyond-its-origins\">Going Beyond its Origins</h2><p>After the success and fame of Gradius and the original Konami Code, Konami looked into implementing it into further titles. The most famous of these games is Contra for the NES, a game notorious for its challenge. Entering the code in Contra provides 30 extra lives, which for many players still wasn’t enough to overcome the overwhelming alien and <a href=\"/en/glossary/npc/\">NPC</a> menace.</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/MkSYX0N07CQ?si=kzsw4mDW6PhDnu4v\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>Over the years, Konami kept including the Konami Code, even as they left the NES and explored other platforms like the SNES, <a href=\"/en/blog/ps-vita-games/\">PS Vita</a>, Xbox One, and PC. As gaming evolved and cheat codes became less common, the Konami Code would evolve to offer other bonuses and unlocks, even in games not from Konami.</p><p>Entering a Konami Code did become a little more difficult too, because not all systems use the layout of the original NES controller. The Xbox, for example, flips the B and A buttons. PC games let the player customize all their controls, so the traditional 'accept and go back' buttons of A and B would have to be changed. Then, of course, the PlayStation platforms don’t have A or B buttons at all.</p><p>As for the Konami Code in action, here are a few of our favorite inclusions outside of Gradius and Contra:</p><ul><li>Tetris (NES version): Turns the current Tetronimo into the much-loved l piece</li><li>Silent Hill 3: Entering the Konami Code unlocks a Sailor Moon outfit</li><li>Bioshock Infinite: Unlocks the special hardest gameplay mode without having to complete the game first</li><li>Dead by Daylight: Gives the player a special equipable charm</li><li>Discord (yes, the chat platform): Grants access to a game of Snake</li></ul><h3 id=\"what-is-#1-the-konami-code?\">What is #1 the Konami Code?</h3><p>The number one use of the Konami cheat code has to be from its use in Contra for the NES. In fact, the Konami code is still called the Contra Code by some people thanks to how famous and useful it is in this title.</p><h2 id=\"the-enduring-legacy\">The Enduring Legacy</h2><p>Now rapidly approaching its 40th birthday, the Konami Code has earned an eternal place in gaming history.

Now, the battle between the two mediums is one of the hottest topics in the entertainment industry. Augmented reality and virtual reality are expected to be two game-changing platforms in the years ahead, with projections suggesting the combined market could be <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https://www.acumenresearchandconsulting.com/augmented-reality-and-virtual-reality-market\" rel=\"nofollow\">worth $451.5 billion</a>.</p><p>Which will be the bigger technology in the AR vs VR battle? Which side of the fence do you sit on? If you don’t know the answers to those questions yet, or simply want to understand better, read on.</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\">{{banner:middleraidorc}}</p><p>Before we start to debate AR vs VR, it’s important to define what the technologies are.</p><h2 id=\"definition-of-ar\">Definition of AR</h2><p>AR stands for augmented reality, which happens when a digitalized image is projected onto the real world. Pokémon Go was a prime example of an AR game, and the 2016 offering from Niantic helped to push the technology into the mainstream. In the hugely popular title, players could hold up their phone screens and see the famous Japanese monsters superimposed on their everyday surroundings. Players could battle each other in a <a href=\"/en/glossary/1v1/\">1v1 situation</a> as well.</p><figure class=\"image\"><img src=\"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2023/ar-vs-vr-2.webp\" alt=\"AR glasses\"></figure><p>AR is already being used in a <i>range of industries</i>, but the most common way to access it is through a phone screen. Soon, though, it’s expected that AR glasses will go mainstream. That will open a whole world of new possibilities, with users potentially able to witness complex things in front of them. If you’ve seen Tony Stark playfully move digitalized images in front of his eyes, that’s how AR could one day look. This could be the next stage for computers, and users may not need to look at digital content through traditional screens in the future.</p><p>It's also important to note the difference between AR and <a href=\"/en/blog/what-is-arg/\">ARG games</a>. ARG stands for alternate reality game, and these are niche offerings that combine elements of digitalization alongside real-world aspects. For instance, players may solve puzzles in the real world that take them to websites with further clues to solve.</p><h2 id=\"definition-of-vr\">Definition of VR</h2><p>In the AR vs VR debate, VR is a different beast to AR. VR exists <i>solely </i>in a virtual world and doesn’t include any elements of the real world. When you use VR, you put on a headset and get transported to a digitalized landscape. This could be a fantasy world, or it could be a real-world experience that has been recorded for VR headset wearers to enjoy.</p><figure class=\"image\"><img src=\"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2023/ar-vs-vr-4.webp\" alt=\"Is VR better than AR?\"></figure><p>There has been a vast amount of investment in VR, with Meta putting <i>billions </i>into its development. Mark Zuckerberg claimed to believe that more than one billion people could be living in the metaverse by 2030 – a sprawling virtual world where users can socialize, work, and play. In addition to that, VR games are on the rise. PlayStation already has <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https://www.playstation.com/en-il/ps-vr/\" rel=\"nofollow\">its own VR offerings</a>, and these are going to get more detailed and advanced as the technology improves.</p><h2 id=\"ar-vs-vr---similarities\">AR vs VR - Similarities</h2><p>AR vs VR isn’t always going to be a battle for supremacy. It’s more likely that the two mediums will help push each other on and into the mainstream. They have plenty of similarities – AR users are likely to be interested in VR and vice versa.</p><p>You can probably guess the similarities in the AR vs VR debate, but here are a few key ones that you should take note of:</p><ul><li>Both technologies aim to offer immersive experiences in which users are plunged into digital environments. AR may exist in the real world, but there’s no doubt that AR enhances people’s perceptions of their surroundings. The Walking Dead: Our World, for instance, puts them at the center of a zombie apocalypse.</li><li>AR and VR both use digital interaction and similar hardware. In the future, both technologies will require users to wear headsets or glasses.</li><li>AR and VR are both subject to insanely fast technological advances. You’d better be ready to witness exponential growth with this hardware over the next few years.</li><li>Both contenders in the VR vs AR war encourage advanced content creation and could lead to a new way of sharing online. There are loads of innovative ways to use these technologies, and people who jump on them early should find great success.</li></ul><h2 id=\"ar-vs-vr-–-differences\">AR vs VR – Differences</h2><p>There are obviously plenty of similarities between the two mediums in the AR vs VR debate. However, you could argue that there are more <i>differences </i>between the two. Despite their destinies being intertwined, they are their own separate entities, and one could easily exist without the other.</p><p>The main difference between AR and VR is the fact that the former exists in the real world, while the latter takes place in a computer-generated world. AR enhances the real world with digital objects, while VR aims to disconnect users from the real world and transport them to new locations. Expanding upon that point, AR allows users to interact with real-world objects, while VR involves moving around virtual objects.</p><p>There are already some differences in the hardware between AR and VR, and these are likely to get bigger as the technologies progress. VR headsets are clunkier and cover more of the user’s head, while AR glasses are smaller and less awkward. AR could easily become integrated into simple glasses in the future, and maybe one day even contact lenses. It’s hard to imagine the same thing happening with VR headsets.</p><figure class=\"image\"><img src=\"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2023/ar-vs-vr-5.webp\" alt=\"VR means complete immersion\"></figure><p>There’s a chance that AR and VR will serve different purposes in the future, with gaming likely to blow up on one or the other. VR could be the best option for gaming, while AR may be used for more practical cases such as navigation assistance and medical visualization. Right now, VR games are pretty simple. There are basic worlds to explore along with some other mixed genres such as <a href=\"/en/glossary/roguelite/\">roguelite </a>titles. These offerings are only going to get bigger and better and will one day be as rich and detailed as console games.</p><p>VR and AR will both offer users ways of interacting, but the way they do so will differ greatly. Mark Zuckerberg is envisioning a sprawling VR world for people to socialize, which will transcend traditional chat rooms. AR encourages face-to-face meetups when users bond over shared experiences, such as Pokémon Go.</p><h2 id=\"ar-vs-vr-faqs\">AR vs VR FAQs</h2><h3 id=\"which-is-better:-ar-vs-vr?\">Which is Better: AR vs VR?</h3><p>There's one fundamental problem regarding this debate, since that’s a seriously <i>subjective </i>question.

The great thing about AR is that you don’t need to buy glasses to use it – although the headsets doubtlessly enhance the experience tenfold. Some of the most popular AR games on the market include Angry Birds AR: Isle of Pigs, Five Nights at Freddy’s AR, and Jurassic World Alive.</p><h3 id=\"ar-vs-vr-vs-mr\">AR vs VR vs MR</h3><p>AR vs VR may not be the only battle in the future, as there’s also the concept of <i>MR</i>. This stands for Mixed Reality and is a combination of AR and VR. It seems that Apple is focusing on MR with its <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https://www.apple.com/apple-vision-pro/\" rel=\"nofollow\">Pro Vision</a> device. This headset will allow for VR and AR experiences and could have a huge impact on the overall industry.</p><h3 id=\"ar-vs-vr-–-which-will-you-choose?\">AR vs VR – Which Will You Choose?</h3><p>After reading this guide to the heated AR vs VR battle, which technology are you leaning toward?

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt</h3><p>If you ask among active gamers, chances are most will believe that The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is one of the best RPG games for PS4. Players become Geralt of Rivia and get completely immersed in a fantasy world packed full of monsters, diverse characters, and intrigue. Released in 2015, it was still regarded among the best PS4 RPG games in 2022.</p><p>The main storyline of the game from CD Projekt RED takes a long time to complete, and players can extend their time in this rich virtual land by completing a wide array of side quests. Players form bonds with characters that are so well-written and voiced that they feel a loss when the game is completed, knowing they can’t hang out with them anymore. There’s no doubt that this is one of the best RPG games for PS4, which also explains how the Netflix title of the same name came to be.</p><h3 id=\"final-fantasy-xv\">2. Final Fantasy XV</h3><p>Final Fantasy is one of the greatest RPG franchises of all time, and no list of the best RPG games for PS4 would be complete without an entry from the Square Enix series. With there being a few of the Japanese games on the console, it’s hard to pick just one. However, we decided that Final Fantasy XV was the greatest.</p><p>The 15th installment in the much-loved franchise was lauded for its blend of real-time combat and exceptional story. Like all great RPGs, this one had memorable characters that will stay with players for a long time.</p><h3 id=\"dark-souls-iii\">3. Dark Souls III</h3><p style=\"text-align:center;\" id=\"dark-souls-iii\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/cWBwFhUv1-8?si=7a8m_FCueQK7qMJ7\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>The Dark Souls trilogy from FromSoftware is regarded as one of the finest trios of RPG games ever made. The third and final offering, Dark Souls III, is easily the best of the lot, and it was a major commercial hit. The 2016 RPG sold more than three million copies in two months, highlighting the vast number of players who were hungry for the concluding chapter. Dark Souls III will appeal to players in search of gritty fantasy, and it has a heavy focus on combat.</p><h3 id=\"bloodborne\">4. Bloodborne</h3><p>FromSoftware are known for having made some of the best RPG games on the PS4, and another entry from the studio was Bloodborne in 2015. It shared many similarities with the Dark Souls series, with a dark fantastical theme. One of the main things that critics praised it for was the way it paid homage to the works of H.P. Lovecraft, and players felt like they’d stepped into the horrific worlds of the iconic author’s books.</p><h3 id=\"persona-5\">5. Persona 5</h3><p>Some would argue that Japanese studios are the top creators of the RPG genre. No doubt there have been some exceptional titles from the Asian country over the years, with Persona 5 from P-Studio being up there with the best PS4 RPG games. The game takes place in Tokyo, and players get the chance to discover what it would be like to be a vigilante in the bustling city. If you haven't given this game a chance just yet, it might be time.</p><h3 id=\"fallout-4\">6. Fallout 4</h3><p>Titles that transport players to other worlds or situations that are vastly different than their own, are the prime RPGs for PS4. Fallout 4 is one game that takes place in the real world - but, and that's a big one - the time is a fictional <i>post-apocalyptic</i> future. Players get the chance to imagine what it would be like to survive in this bleak wasteland and have to scavenge for resources to help with their mission! Talk about gloomy…</p><h3 id=\"monster-hunter:-world\">7.

Kingdom Hearts III</h3><p>The Kingdom Hearts series has been around for a long time, with the first title coming in 2002 on the PlayStation 2. Players enjoy these titles from Square Enix because they cross over with other content from the Japanese studio. Kingdom Hearts III was the 12th installment in the long-running franchise and was the best-selling game in the series. There’s a lot of hack-and-slash <a href=\"/en/glossary/1v1/\">1v1</a> combat to appease action fans, but some great storytelling as well. This is easily one of the best RPG games on PS4.</p><h3 id=\"nier:-automata\">9. Nier: Automata</h3><p>For anyone who loved the Drakengard series, Nier: Automata is a must-play game. The offering from PlatinumGames is both a spinoff and a sequel to the classic RPGs from Yoko Taro. The game imagines an epic war between aliens and humans, fought with machines. The story was heavily praised by critics, and it’s up there with the best RPG games on PS4.</p><h3 id=\"dragon-quest-xi:-echoes-of-an-elusive-age\">10.

It’s something that many developers have been striving to answer over the years, and this interest has increased with the rise of augmented reality.

You may have even encountered an ARG as it has been used as a marketing tool to build up hype for upcoming games.</p><p>It may even use <a href=\"/en/blog/ar-games/\">technology like AR,</a> or it may use other stuff like videos and text. And, it obviously has a whole other meaning from the iconic 90s catchphrase spotlighting “arg” (all you Buffy fans out there know exactly <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https://screenrant.com/buffy-slayer-grr-argh-vampire-mutant-enemy/\" rel=\"nofollow\">what we're talking about</a>).

The offering from Jeffrey Lieber, J. J. Abrams, and Damon Lindelof were criticized in its later seasons, but it is still up there with the most impressive series of all time. Indeed, it continues to influence the streaming era, with many contemporary offerings inspired by it.</p><p>The Lost Experience was connected to the TV show and added more depth to the story. It was a huge hit among diehard fans, as it provided them with opportunities to find additional information about the show. There were loads of puzzles to solve, websites to visit, and even phone numbers to call.</p><h3 id=\"year-zero\">Year Zero</h3><p>ARGs have emerged as a great marketing tool for bands who want to promote their material in new and innovative ways. Year Zero was a prime example of this, and it was used to promote the Nine Inch Nails album of the same name that was released in 2007.</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/fhrnChYf23k?si=Lm6ioUhqHtrWnNfh\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>The ARG offering was released by 42 Entertainment and ran for more than 18 months. It drew a lot of inspiration from dystopian fiction like Nineteen Eighty-Four and took place in the year 2022. It included phone calls and cryptic websites, along with real-world events such as concerts from the band.</p><h3 id=\"perplex-city\">Perplex City</h3><p>Perplex City was a unique concept that combined a physical collectible card game with online elements. Players had to gather cards in the real world that had clues. These clues led them to a hidden artifact known as the Receda Cube, which is hidden somewhere in the real world. It came with a whopping financial reward for the winning player as well.</p><h3 id=\"the-beast-(a.i.)\">The Beast (A.I.)</h3><p>AI may be everywhere in 2023, but back in 2001, it was a relatively unknown prospect in the mainstream. Steven Spielberg released A.I. Artificial Intelligence that year, a film that imagined what it would be like if an android had the ability to love.</p><p>To promote the picture, Microsoft released The Beast (A.I.), which was designed to expand the film’s universe. The title has often been described as one of the earliest and most influential ARGs, and it involved scanning websites, calling phone numbers, and solving a variety of puzzles in both the real and virtual worlds.</p><h3 id=\"i-love-bees\">I Love Bees</h3><p style=\"text-align:center;\" id=\"i-love-bees\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/bJQJqlZXQtk?si=OjDLH_t-WBgtYsrm\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>Sometimes ARGs are used to market games in other offshoots of the entertainment industry. I Love Bees was one such title, and it was launched in 2004 as a campaign to promote Halo 2. The game involved players having to work together with an AI entity that had crash-landed on Earth. It was one of the best examples of how ARGs can be engaging promotional tools.</p><h2 id=\"faqs\">FAQs</h2><h3 id=\"what-are-args-(augmented-reality-games)?\">What Are ARGs (Augmented Reality Games)?</h3><p>ARG Games make up a rather <i>niche </i>section of the gaming industry, and they aren’t restricted to only including certain elements. The alternate reality games blend real-world aspects with digital but aren’t always recognizable as games in the traditional sense.</p><figure class=\"image\"><img src=\"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2023/arg-2.webp\" alt=\"ARG Games can incorporate any part of reality\"></figure><p>A basic ARG definition is a title that includes <i>real-world activities</i>, such as a treasure hunt, but also features digital aspects such as audio, text, images, and videos. Players may even have to perform certain tasks on a screen. These could sometimes be referred to as some of the <a href=\"/en/blog/realistic-games/\">most realistic games</a>, as they occur within the player’s own world.</p><h3 id=\"what-is-an-example-of-an-arg?\">What Is an Example of an ARG?</h3><p>An example of an ARG could be when a band wants to promote a new album. It might post cryptic clues on its website for fans to follow. They may be tasked with following a trail in the real world, which eventually leads them to the new release. This could involve scanning QR codes to find secret videos, images, or audio. There’s no limit to what ARGs could involve, but they are defined by the fact that they exist within both a real-world and virtual setting.</p><figure class=\"image\"><img src=\"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2023/arg-3.webp\" alt=\"ARGs are very often used to promote new products\"></figure><p>Players who take part in ARGs may <a href=\"/en/resource/generator/fantasy-name-generator/\">give themselves fantasy names</a>, just as they would with their characters in digital games. This helps to separate fact from fiction when players embark on adventures.</p><h3 id=\"what’s-the-difference-from-ar?\">What’s the Difference from AR?</h3><p>Although ARGs may sometimes use augmented reality, they aren’t always augmented reality games. That’s why they have their niche category. <a href=\"/en/blog/ar-games/\">AR games</a> always use augmented reality technology and superimpose digital images on the player’s surroundings.</p><p>It’s also important to note that ARGs are not usually related to <a href=\"/en/blog/vr-games/\">VR games</a>. Virtual reality titles exist solely within a digitalized setting, with players wearing a headset that immerses them in that universe.</p><figure class=\"image\"><img src=\"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2023/arg-4.webp\" alt=\"Go on an adventure with ARGs!\"></figure><h2 id=\"hunt-for-some-args-today\">Hunt for Some ARGs Today</h2><p>It’s always worth keeping an eye out and checking gaming websites to see if there are any new ARGs to take part in. Sometimes these games are so secretive that you won’t hear about them unless you’re in the loop. So, to paraphrase Gwen Stefani, what you waiting for?
