Well, in some respects, it is.</p>\n\n<p>However, thanks to George Lucas and the sci-fi community, it has a significance beyond the passing of time. Why? Because it’s also Star Wars Day!</p>\n\n<p>What is Star Wars Day? Why is it called Star Wars Day? And how do you celebrate Star Wars May 4th Day? We’ve answered those questions and more in our guide to May the 4th.</p>\n\n<h2>What is the Meaning of May the 4th be with You?</h2>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img alt=\"One of the most prominent figures quoted to this day as saying \"May the force be with you!\" - Yoda\" src=\"https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2015/03/11/01/21/yoda-667955_960_720.jpg\" /></p>\n\n<p>May the 4th be with you is a reference to the immortal phrase uttered by Jedis: <q>may the force be with you</q>. Given the phonetic similarities between the phrases <em><strong>May the 4th</strong></em> and <em><strong>may the force</strong></em>, Star Wars fans have claimed the date as their own.</p>\n\n<p>In line with this, May 4th Star Wars Day is a time for sci-fans, aspiring Jedis, and people from galaxies far, far away to come together. Whether it’s physically or virtually, Star Wars enthusiasts will congregate to celebrate their favorite movie franchise in a variety of ways.</p>\n\n<p>Such is the popularity of May the day and its celebrations, that it’s now recognized by <a href=\"https://www.lucasfilm.com/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Lucasfilm</a> and its parent company, <a href=\"https://www.disney.com\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Disney</a>. This has resulted in a variety of official and unofficial May 4th Star Wars Day events.</p>\n\n<p>Before we explain what’s in store for May the fourth be with you in 2022, here’s a bit about the day’s cultural significance.</p>\n\n<h2>Who Says May the Fourth Be with You? The Cultural Significance of May 4th</h2>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/VH83SsL_fIQ\" title=\"YouTube video player\" width=\"560\"></iframe></p>\n\n<p>George Lucas created the original Star Wars movie in 1977. It became an instant hit and, even after more than 40 years, it is still remembered fondly.</p>\n\n<p>With Lucas striking a chord with his tale of intergalactic warriors battling across far away worlds, two subsequent movies were released (the Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi).</p>\n\n<p>At this point, a culture was developing around Star Wars. Action figures and games were being released. Fast-forward to today and the <a href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Wars\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Wikipedia entry for Star Wars</a> describes it as an “American epic space-opera multimedia franchise.”</p>\n\n<p>In other words, it’s an ongoing saga that encompasses movies and more.</p>\n\n<p>In fact, if you look through the franchise as a whole, you’ll find Star Wars collectibles, TV shows, board games, and more. If you’re a gamer, fans of the sci-fi saga have gone as far as to adapt <a href=\"/en/blog/dnd-classes/\">Dungeons and Dragons</a> (D&D) to include a Star Wars quest.</p>\n\n<p>Put simply, Star Wars has become much more than a series of movies and that’s why May the 4th be with you is such a big event.</p>\n\n<h2>When is May the 4th Be with You Day?</h2>\n\n<p>Well, you don’t have to be a genius to work out that May the fourth be with you day is on May 4th. It’s an annual event that’s been officially celebrated since 2011. However, there were pockets of activity around the world long before May 4th was recognized as an official day.</p>\n\n<p>By 2013, Disney began observing the annual celebration. That’s led to a variety of interesting and entertaining events. From special screenings of Star Wars to fancy dress parties, people are now celebrating May the 4th be with you Day in a myriad of ways.</p>\n\n<h2>How Do You Celebrate?</h2>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img alt=\"Star Wars fans cosplaying as Siths\" src=\"https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2017/04/25/22/54/sith-2261087_960_720.jpg\" /></p>\n\n<p>Saying May the fourth be with you is the easiest way to observe Star Wars Day. It also lets people know that you’re a sci-fi fan. However, if your love for Luke Skywalker et al runs deeper, you can take part in a variety of special events on May 4th.</p>\n\n<p>Previous May the 4th be with you days have seen festivals take place around the world, online screenings, and more.</p>\n\n<h3>2022-Relevant May the 4th celebrations include:</h3>\n\n<h4>Wearing the Official T-Shirt:</h4>\n\n<ul>\n\t<li>To mark May the 4th be with you Day, Disney has created official t-shirts. Costing $24.99 each, the Star Wars May 4th t-shirts feature the famous saying, Yoda, and various characters, including Boba Fett.</li>\n</ul>\n\n<h4>Star Wars Celebration 2022:</h4>\n\n<ul>\n\t<li>It may not be taking place on May the 4th, but the 2022 Star Wars convention <em>is </em>happening in May. Running from <em>May 26 to May 29 </em>at the Anaheim Convention Center, this is the ultimate fan experience. As well as celebrity guests and exhibits, there will be people in costumes, games, and more. So, if you buy tickets, you can celebrate May 4th Star Wars Day by preparing an outfit for the convention.</li>\n</ul>\n\n<h4>Learn How to Become a Jedi:</h4>\n\n<ul>\n\t<li>If you own an Amazon Alexa, you can say the following phrase on May 4th: “Alexa begin my Jedi lesson.” That request starts a series of nine lessons every Jedi needs to learn. You can also play a variety of Star Wars games with Alexa!</li>\n</ul>\n\n<h4>Special Releases:</h4>\n\n<ul>\n\t<li>May the 4th will also be a chance for you to get special previews, spoofs, and toys courtesy of StarWars.com.

Yes, there is at least one PAX convention every year. The dates for each expo are released throughout the year, but events typically take place in April, September, October, and December. PAX East kicks off the annual schedule and PAX Unplugged brings the year to a close.</p>\n\n<p>Will PAX East happen in 2022? Yes! The Penny Arcade Expo schedule contains a confirmed listing for PAX East. Based on the information published so far, this is how gamers can get their expo fix in 2022:</p>\n\n<ul>\n\t<li>PAX East: 21-24 April 2022, Boston Convention & Exhibition Center</li>\n\t<li>PAX West: Dates TBA in Seattle</li>\n\t<li>PAX AUS: Dates TBA in Melbourne</li>\n\t<li>PAX Unplugged: Dates TBA in Philadelphia</li>\n</ul>\n\n<h2 id=\"what-exactly-is-pax?\">What Exactly is PAX?</h2>\n\n<p><strong>PAX stands for Penny Arcade Expo</strong>. The original PAX convention took place in 2004. It was created by the authors of the webcomic <a href=\"https://www.penny-arcade.com/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Penny Arcade</a>, Jerry Holkins, and Mike Krahulik. Holkins and Krahulik wanted to create a show specifically for gaming and, with their first love being penny arcade and tabletop games, PAX was born.</p>\n\n<p>The popularity of PAX has increased over the years and, in line with demand for tickets, the convention has evolved. From<a href=\"https://www.paxsite.com/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\"> the original PAX</a>, which attracted 3,300 attendees, it grew from a single-day expo to a four-day event.</p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img alt=\"Pax convention is a completely immersive experience\" src=\"https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/45/Pax06expofloor.jpg\" /></p>\n\n<p>The first four-day expo was dubbed PAX Prime and attracted over 70,000 visitors in 2013. Also, part of this initial growth phase was a partnership with ReedPop. The events company has helped turn Penny Arcade’s one-time event into an annual series of expos.</p>\n\n<p>Before PAX Prime, the organizers had already started experimenting with expos outside of the original host city, Seattle. In 2010, PAX East took place in Boston’s Hynes Convention Center. With over 67,000 attendees, PAX East quickly became a rival to PAX Prime.</p>\n\n<p>By 2012, the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center had become the home of PAX East, which was now a staple of Penny Arcade’s calendar of events.</p>\n\n<h3 id=\"the-evolution-of-pax\">The Evolution of PAX</h3>\n\n<p>Between 2013 and 2015, <strong>PAX Australia</strong> and <strong>PAX South</strong> were added to the schedule. The inaugural PAX AUS took place in 2013 at the Melbourne Showgrounds before it moved to the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Center.</p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img alt=\"Ubisoft at PAX\" src=\"https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2017/08/24/14/10/gamescom-2676958_960_720.jpg\" /></p>\n\n<p>Back in the US, the first PAX South took place in San Antonio and became the biggest inaugural Penny Arcade event in history. Unfortunately, despite the initial popularity of PAX South, it was discontinued in 2021 because of waning interest.</p>\n\n<p>Adding to the PAX schedule of events in 2017 was Unplugged. This expo focused on one specific feature of the Penny Arcade universe, tabletop games. This genre had been a bit-part player in previous PAX conventions.</p>\n\n<p>However, a surge of interest in tabletop games allowed a spinoff event to be made. PAX Unplugged might not be as popular as Pax East and Pax West, but is an integral part of the annual line-up.</p>\n\n<p>Each PAX event has its own nuances but, overall, they all have the same fundamental structure. The only notable change in recent years is the renaming of PAX Prime to PAX West. So, that’s just about all you need to know about the history of PAX.</p>\n\n<p>Looking forward, PAX 2022 is on the horizon. So, with this in mind, here are the details you need to know…</p>\n\n<ul>\n</ul>\n\n<h2 id=\"registration:-how-to-attend-penny-arcade-expos\">Registration: How to Attend Penny Arcade Expos</h2>\n\n<p>All Penny Arcade Expo events are ticket-only. That means you need to register online and buy badges. These badges can get you access to specific days. Alternatively, you can get badges that give you access to the expo for four days.</p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img alt=\"Most conventions require a badge or a pass in order to get in\" src=\"https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2016/03/24/14/43/access-1276873_960_720.jpg\" /></p>\n\n<p>Unlike some gaming expos, Penny Arcade and ReedPop have kept the entrance fee to an affordable level. For PAX East 2022, the price for single and multi-day badges was:</p>\n\n<ul>\n\t<li>Single Day PAX East Badge = $62</li>\n\t<li>Four-Day PAX East Badge = $235</li>\n</ul>\n\n<h2 id=\"what’s-on-at-pax-conventions?\">What’s On at PAX Conventions?</h2>\n\n<p>Every PAX convention is a celebration of arcade games and tabletop games. There are interactive elements where attendees can play <a href=\"/en/games/genre/survival-games/\">games of survival</a>, <a href=\"/en/games/category/new-games/\">new releases</a>, arcade hits, and more.</p>\n\n<p>There are expert panels covering a variety of topics, including the development of hit games, new technology and more.</p>\n\n<p>Put simply, PAX is an all-encompassing experience that covers everything the gaming world offers. For those looking to attend at Penny Arcade Expo, here are the things you can see and do:</p>\n\n<ul>\n\t<li>The Expo Hall is where you can find previews of new games, technology, and content from AAA publishers, indie developers, and the biggest names in the industry.</li>\n\t<li>Meet and greets with popular figures from the world of gaming.</li>\n\t<li>Merchandise from developers, tech companies, and other brands that make gaming great.</li>\n\t<li>Console free-play area where you can enjoy thousands of gaming hits for free.</li>\n\t<li>Expert panels and keynote speeches about new developers, <a href=\"/en/blog/meta-in-gaming/\">meta in gaming</a>, hot topics, and popular debates within the industry.</li>\n\t<li><a href=\"/en/blog/lan-parties/\">LAN Parties</a> where you can connect your own PC/Laptop to a local network and compete with your fellow PAX attendees.</li>\n\t<li>PAX Arena featuring pro eSports tournaments.</li>\n\t<li>PAX Rising Showcase is a part of the expo where budding developers can show off their products.</li>\n\t<li>Community meetups are a chance for gamers to chat, relax, party, and have fun.</li>\n\t<li>The Handheld Lounge gives attendees somewhere to relax while playing a variety of <a href=\"/en/games/os/android-games/\">Android</a> and <a href=\"/en/games/os/ios-games/\">iOS games</a>.</li>\n\t<li>Pinny Arcade is a place where attendees can view and trade <a href=\"https://gamingpins.co.uk/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">gaming-themed pins</a>.</li>\n</ul>\n\n<p>That’s just a <em>taste </em>of what happens at PAX East, PAX West, PAX AUS, and PAX Unplugged. If you’re a fan of gaming, these expos are a great way to immerse yourself in everything the industry has to offer.</p>\n","date":"4/14/2022"},"images":{"preview":{"alt":"PAX is a must-attend convention","href":"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2017/week_49/image-1.jpg"},"authorAvatar":{"href":"//cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/portal/common/avatars/default_avatar.jpg","sizes":[]}},"template_options":{"compositeId":"14755"}},{"links":{"link":"/en/blog/raid-third-anniversary/"},"strings":{"title":"Celebrate the Third Raid: Shadow Legends Anniversary in Style!","category":"Insights","author":"PLARIUM STAFF","readTime":"180000","description":"<p>Raid: Shadow Legends is turning three years old, and to celebrate, we are rolling out a series of amazing goodies, including personalized videos and free characters!</p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">{{banner:default}}</p>\n\n<p>The epic freemium fantasy <a href=\"/en/blog/gacha-games/\">gacha game</a>, Raid: Shadow Legends, is celebrating its third anniversary.

DDR5 RAM is the fifth iteration of Double Data Rate Synchronous Dynamic Random-Access Memory (DDR SDRAM).</p>\n\n<p>Your computer’s memory is still the beating heart of your gaming PC’s hardware, designed to handle the operation of all your installed games and applications, from <a href=\"/en/games/genre/survival-games/\">survival</a> to <a href=\"/en/games/genre/shooting-games/\">first-person shooter</a> games.</p>\n\n<p>Within this guide to DDR5 RAM, we’ll explore the headline improvements on DDR4 RAM and whether you should start to invest in DDR5 RAM from now onwards.</p>\n\n<h2>DDR5 RAM: Setting a new standard for PC memory</h2>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img alt=\"DDR RAM\" src=\"https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2012/04/01/12/46/ddr-ram-23270_960_720.png\" /></p>\n\n<p>DDR5 RAM was released into the ether in early November 2021. It was pitched alongside the 12th generation GPUs from Intel, as well as its Z690 motherboards.</p>\n\n<p>They are already being sold in the “Alder Lake” desktop processors from Intel Core. At the time of their release, they were the only mainstream chips compatible with the latest DDR5 RAM.</p>\n\n<p>However, that is sure to change in the coming weeks and months. There is an expectation within the gaming industry that most devices that currently lean on DDR4 RAM will be required to migrate over to DDR5 RAM.</p>\n\n<p>Gaming RAM is one of the most important pieces of hardware for your gaming, allowing your computer to handle temporary storage of data within your PC and giving you the chance to be fast and agile when it counts.</p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img alt=\"Gaming Computer Set Up\" src=\"https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2021/12/30/12/09/gaming-computer-6903836_960_720.jpg\" /></p>\n\n<h3>Is DDR5 RAM available yet?</h3>\n\n<p>Yes, DDR5 RAM is available, although it has limited supporting hardware at present.</p>\n\n<p>The Alder Lake and Z690 chipset are the only compatible mainstream platforms featuring it at present.</p>\n\n<p>However, the likes of AMD and Samsung are investing heavily in ramping up mass production of superfast DDR5 RAM in the near future.</p>\n\n<h3>Is DDR5 RAM available for laptops?</h3>\n\n<p>Yes, DDR5 RAM is featured within the latest laptops built using Intel’s Alder Lake 12th generation processors. It’s also expected that DDR5 RAM will be featured within laptops powered by AMD’s Rembrandt processors.</p>\n\n<p>Unlike most desktop PCs, which allow you to customize your choice of gaming RAM between DDR4 and DDR5, it looks likely that laptop users won’t have such flexibility.</p>\n\n<p>Most high-performance laptops will feature DDR5 as a matter of course, which should ensure that the latest laptops can handle the demands of most gamers on the go.</p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img alt=\"Personalized laptops are more common than ever before\" src=\"https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2020/10/21/18/07/laptop-5673901_960_720.jpg\" /></p>\n\n<h3>Is DDR5 RAM good for gaming?</h3>\n\n<p>When it comes to benchmarks, many <a href=\"/en/games/platform/pc-games/\">PC</a> and <a href=\"/en/games/platform/mac-games/\">Mac</a> games have been road tested using both DDR4 and DDR5 RAM in a bid to determine the performance improvements with the latest generation of gaming memory.</p>\n\n<p><a href=\"https://www.techspot.com/review/2387-ddr4-vs-ddr5/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">It was found</a> that performance improvement on games like <a href=\"https://www.ign.com/games/assassins-creed-valhalla\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Assassin’s Creed Valhalla</a> was between 13%-15% <em>better</em> with the DDR5, while the average frame rate at 1080p was up as high as 137 frames per second, suggesting that DDR5 is <em>the best</em> RAM for gaming.</p>\n\n<h2>How does DDR5 RAM compare with DDR4 RAM?</h2>\n\n<p>The difference between DDR5 RAM and its predecessor can be measured in clock rate and data rate. To measure the data rate of RAM, this is often displayed in Megatransfers per second (MT/s).</p>\n\n<p>When it comes to DDR4, typical data rates range from 1,600 MT/s through to 3,200 MT/s. In addition, clock rates for DDR4 memory weigh in between 800 MT/s and 1,600 MT/s.</p>\n\n<p>Although overclocking can sometimes give these numbers a nudge in the right direction.</p>\n\n<p>By contrast, its successor posts improved data rates in the range of 4,800 MT/s to 8,400 MT/s. Meanwhile its clock rates build upon the highest possible rates of DDR4, ranging from 1,600 MT/s through to an impressive 4,800 MT/s.</p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img alt=\"Is DDR 5 necessarily fastest?\" src=\"https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2015/02/28/07/22/speedometer-653246_960_720.jpg\" /></p>\n\n<p>Another big difference between the fourth and fifth iteration of PC memory is their maximum die density. Dies are the integrated circuit modules within an individual stick of RAM.</p>\n\n<p>The maximum density of DDR4 dies is 16Gb, but its successor has managed to achieve a four-fold improvement in density to 64Gb.</p>\n\n<p>Although it’s said that the data width of both RAM options is similar, the fifth-generation release boasts improved channel architecture. Each stick of RAM contains two channels rather than one within a stick of DDR4.</p>\n\n<p>This means your desktop’s CPU can access the same stick of RAM twice, doubling up on your memory’s burst length and burst chop.</p>\n\n<p>The management of DDR4 RAM’s power is overseen by the motherboard. Its successor manages its own power with a power management integrated circuit (PMIC) fitted within each stick of DDR5.</p>\n\n<p>The theory behind the use of a PMIC is to ensure optimal use of power. In addition, DDR5 sticks are designed to operate at a reduced voltage than its predecessor.</p>\n\n<p>Although it’s only a modest drop from 1.2V to 1.1V, this difference will be most felt on smaller devices.</p>\n\n<h2>The problem with DDR5</h2>\n\n<p>The biggest issue with DDR5 RAM right now is its <em>availability and price.</em> A shortage of stock means that very few retailers have the next generation of RAM on their shelves.</p>\n\n<p>On the rare occasions that it is available to buy on or offline, it’s very expensive. If you have the budget to afford to be an early adopter of this technology, then by all means go ahead, but many would recommend that you hold fire and wait until the supply and price drops in tandem.</p>\n\n<p>It's also worth noting that upgrading your RAM from DDR4 to its successor may not be as straightforward as purchasing new RAM sticks.</p>\n\n<h2>DDR5 in a nutshell</h2>\n\n<p>For DDR5 to be compatible with the desktops of today, you’ll need to invest in a new motherboard and CPU too. A new power supply may also need to be factored into the equation to accommodate all of the above enhancements.</p>\n\n<p>Although DDR5 RAM will certainly set the new standard for high-performance gaming, it may be another year or two until we truly see it reach the mainstream gaming community.</p>\n","date":"4/13/2022"},"images":{"preview":{"alt":"Finding the best DDR RAM for your needs takes some research","href":"//cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/old/blog/en/2014/06/Why-You-Should-Work-Together-In-MMOs.jpg"},"authorAvatar":{"href":"//cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/portal/common/avatars/default_avatar.jpg","sizes":[]}},"template_options":{"compositeId":"14749"}},{"links":{"link":"/en/blog/npc-non-player-character/"},"strings":{"title":"NPC (Non-Player Character)","category":"Insights","author":"PLARIUM STAFF","readTime":"300000","description":"<p>A non-player character (NPC) is a term originally coined by players of table-based role-playing games, describing in-game characters overseen by the \"gamemaster\" as opposed to active players.</p>\n\n<p>In video gaming terms, an NPC is a character controlled by the game’s AI, with the developers programming each NPC to feature a selection of in-game behaviors to create their personality and enhance the storyline of the game.</p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">{{banner:default}}</p>\n\n<h2>How Do NPCs Affect Your Favorite Games?</h2>\n\n<p>A non-playable character differs from CPUs, which are designed to be in-game characters programmed to think and act like a human.</p>\n\n<p>NPCs can either be integral characters or fringe characters populated to add depth to open-world environments, and are most commonly featured in multiplayer games.</p>\n\n<p>If there’s only one human player involved, the computer will populate the game with multiple CPUs that are programmed to make dynamic moves based on the computer’s \"brain\".</p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img alt=\"Even if oftentimes overlooked, NPCs are EVERYWHERE!\" src=\"https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2016/10/13/00/22/illustration-1736462_960_720.png\" /></p>\n\n<p>While CPUs can think and make split decisions in-game, the behavior of an NPC is almost always scripted. The actions of an NPC are often activated by human-controlled characters based on their actions or dialogue.</p>\n\n<p>Although in some <a href=\"/en/games/platform/html5-games/\">HTML5 games</a> and <a href=\"/en/games/platform/flash-games/\">Flash games</a> like massively multiplayer online role-playing games (<a href=\"/en/games/genre/mmorpg-games/\">MMORPGs</a>) you can find <em>unscripted</em> NPCs, which operate as avatars managed in-house by the game’s developers.</p>\n\n<h2>The Top 10 Most Famous NPCs in Gaming History</h2>\n\n<p>Although some NPCs are little more than background fodder, several have gone on to steal the limelight and cement themselves as icons in the gaming community.</p>\n\n<p>Below, we shine a spotlight on ten legendary NPCs to have graced our screens through the decades:</p>\n\n<h3>1. Cave Johnson (Portal 2)</h3>\n\n<p>Cave Johnson is undoubtedly the most engaging NPC within the Portal franchise.</p>\n\n<p>Characterized as the ex-CEO of Aperture Science who let the power get to his head before dying in a tragic accident, Johnson’s dialog – expertly overseen by J. K. Simmons – is witty and engaging, with pre-recorded messages that bring out his personality in spades.</p>\n\n<h3>2. HK-47 (Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic)</h3>\n\n<p>HK-47 is a big call to include on this list. The main reason is that you have to control it amid a combat mission.</p>\n\n<p>Nevertheless, HK-47 is an NPC that you quickly engage with throughout many aspects of KOTOR. HK-47 has a comically basic moral compass.</p>\n\n<p>In fact, he views every person as a “meatbag” and believes physical confrontation is the easiest way to settle any dispute.</p>\n\n<h3>3. Sans (Undertale)</h3>\n\n<p>Undertale is a game teeming with memorable NPCs, but if you had to make us choose, Sans would stand out at the top of the pile.</p>\n\n<p>This creepy yet equally smiley skeleton embodies everything that’s great about this title. At times, he may seem like a rather futile addition, but he also is a timely reminder not to take this game too seriously.</p>\n\n<h3>4. Dogmeat (Fallout)</h3>\n\n<p>The Fallout series is teeming with excellent NPCs, but Dogmeat stands out from the crowd as the pinnacle.</p>\n\n<p>This canine companion is one of your most regular sights and sounds on your adventures across the Fallout universe.</p>\n\n<p>Dogmeat will follow you around wherever you go, helping to make the barren wasteland a little less lonely.</p>\n\n<h3>5. Cortana (Halo)</h3>\n\n<p>Cortana is a fiercely strong personality in her own right, but Halo just wouldn’t be the same without this NPC.</p>\n\n<p>Consider Cortana as the voice of reason and knowledge to guide you along your way.</p>\n\n<p>Many NPCs of this nature have been a source of frustration among gamers in years gone by, but Cortana is an invaluable addition to this franchise.</p>\n\n<h3>6. Elizabeth (BioShock Infinite)</h3>\n\n<p>BioShock Infinite may have got plenty of things wrong, but one thing that most gamers are united on is the success of NPC companion Elizabeth.</p>\n\n<p>Elizabeth is anything but a millstone around your neck. She’s flexible and capable, with a host of unique attributes to get you out of tight situations.</p>\n\n<h3>7. The Merchant (Resident Evil 4)</h3>\n\n<p>Upon our travels in Resident Evil 4, we lost count of the number of times that the merchant would rock up on-screen to save us from the villagers, always greeting us with \"What are you buying?\".</p>\n\n<p>If you needed someone to sell you a vast array of weapons, upgrades, or healing items, he was the man to contact.</p>\n\n<h3>8. “Joker” (Mass Effect Trilogy)</h3>\n\n<p>Jeff “Joker” Moreau is up there as one of the best NPCs of all time, not just in the Mass Effect series.</p>\n\n<p>He stands head and shoulders above the rest of the Alliance fleet as one of the finest pilots, but aside from his attributes in the skies, he happens to be a hilarious personality to boot.</p>\n\n<p>Not surprising considering <a href=\"https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001293/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Seth Green</a> voiced him!</p>\n\n<h3>9. “Otacon” (Metal Gear Solid)</h3>\n\n<p>Hal “Otacon” Emmerich is a nerdy scientist, but surprisingly became one of the most recognizable figures in the Metal Gear Solid franchise.</p>\n\n<p>Despite showcasing his vulnerability by wetting himself on your first in-game meeting, Otacon gradually grows a pair as the franchise evolves, going above and beyond the call of duty to assist you.</p>\n\n<h3>10. Tom Nook (Animal Crossing)</h3>\n\n<p>Despite being an NPC, Tom Nook plays a key role in all aspects of Animal Crossing games. He operates the village store and is the go-to character to visit if you need funds to expand your adventure.</p>\n\n<p>Nook – known as Tanukichi in Japan – almost acts as the gatekeeper of the game, making sure that players progress at the right time.</p>\n\n<h2>The NPC Meme</h2>\n\n<p>In the autumn of 2018, the term NPC received further attention when it was coined as a <em>derogatory</em> meme. The meme was shared with the question “Are you an NPC?”.</p>\n\n<p>In essence, the meme was suggesting that any person labeled an NPC was devoid of being able to think for themselves and was simply happy to follow the crowd.</p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/HwcNLGiKVEc\" title=\"YouTube video player\" width=\"560\"></iframe></p>\n\n<p>It’s even become an insult thrown around by gamers at those deemed to lack in-game intelligence to prevail (arguably most notable in games <a href=\"/en/blog/dnd-classes/\">such as D&D</a> where players <em>must</em> be active).</p>\n\n<p>Nevertheless, an NPC remains integral to the dynamics of so many of the latest titles, adding a layer of authenticity that makes these virtual worlds more immersive than ever before.</p>\n","date":"4/12/2022"},"images":{"preview":{"alt":"NPCs has become synonymous with mindlessness in gaming","href":"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2019/week_7/13.png"},"authorAvatar":{"href":"//cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/portal/common/avatars/default_avatar.jpg","sizes":[]}},"template_options":{"compositeId":"14743"}},{"links":{"link":"/en/blog/egx-eurogame-expo/"},"strings":{"title":"What is EGX?

Today, anyone that’s anyone in the business will attend EGX.</p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">{{banner:default}}</p>\n\n<p>From developers previewing their latest creations to GaaS technology providers touting their products to businesses, EGX is a real mix of interests and offerings. Then, of course, you’ve got the fans.</p>\n\n<p>EGX, like all gaming expos, is a chance for consumers to get the inside track of the industry. This guide is intended to give the lowdown on the Eurogame Expo, its origins, and what’s in store at future events.</p>\n\n<p>You can also find out what’s coming up at the next EGX. So, if you’re ready to get into gaming’s top trade show, scroll down for more.</p>\n\n<h2>What is EGX?</h2>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img alt=\"EGX is an event any gamer should try to experience for themselves! \" src=\"https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2021/09/07/07/11/game-console-6603120_960_720.jpg\" /></p>\n\n<p>EGX is an acronym made from the phrase “Eurogame Expo”, which is a trade show within the gaming industry.  The first Eurogame Expo took place in 2008 as part of the London Games Festival.</p>\n\n<p>It was held over two days in October at the Old Truman Brewery and was used as a showcase for the latest <a href=\"/en/blog/christmas-video-games/\">Christmas releases</a>, including <a href=\"/en/games/genre/rpg-games/\">RPGs</a>, <a href=\"/en/games/genre/mmo-games/\">MMOs</a>, and <a href=\"/en/games/genre/castle-games/\">castle games</a>. <strong>4,000</strong> people attended the inaugural Eurogamer Expo, and, since then, it’s gone from strength to strength.</p>\n\n<p>Demand for tickets in 2010 saw the expo held at Earl’s Court in London for five years before various spinoff events were launched.</p>\n\n<p>By 2013, two distinct events were operating under the Eurogamer banner: Eurogamer London and Rezzed.</p>\n\n<p>They were subsequently renamed <a href=\"https://www.egx.net/london/en-gb.html\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">EGX London</a> and <a href=\"https://www.egx.net/birmingham/en-gb.html\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">EGX Birmingham</a>.</p>\n\n<p>As well as changing names and traveling to new venues, including the Birmingham NEC and STATION-Berlin, the variety of events taking place at EGX has increased over the years.</p>\n\n<p>Today, these expos not only feature game previews, but details from industry insiders and celebrities, competitions, meet-and-greets, eSports tournaments, and interactive experiences.</p>\n\n<p>Put simply, if you’re a fan of gaming, EGX offers insights and access like few other expos.</p>\n\n<h3>Who Started the Eurogame Expo?</h3>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img alt=\"EGX has very humble beginnings before it blew up to its current state and stature\" src=\"https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2016/09/17/21/47/audience-1677028_960_720.jpg\" /></p>\n\n<p>EGX was started by the Gamer Network, which is a company that owns the video game news and review site, <a href=\"https://www.eurogamer.net/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Eurogamer</a>.</p>\n\n<p>This website was launched in 1999 by three prominent members of the gaming community, John \"Gestalt\" Bye, Patrick \"Gandhi\" Stokes, and Rupert Loman.</p>\n\n<p>Between them, Bye, Stokes, and Loman carved out a reputation for offering playful but insightful video game articles.</p>\n\n<p>They parlayed this success into an expo that’s gone on to become a landmark event on the gaming calendar.</p>\n\n<h3>Where is the EGX Expo?</h3>\n\n<p>EGX is primarily held in the UK. The first event was held in London, and this remains the company’s most popular destination.</p>\n\n<p>Brighton and Birmingham have also played host to EGX events, as has STATION-Berlin. 2020 saw the event take place online due to COVID-19, but it returned in 2021 with <strong>two</strong> events in London.</p>\n\n<p>The next EGX Expo will take place in September 2022 at London’s ExCel Arena.</p>\n\n<h2>EGX Expo Highlights: What Gaming Fans Can Expect</h2>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/hDTDwAEybxY\" title=\"YouTube video player\" width=\"560\"></iframe></p>\n\n<p>Every EGX event is different, but there are some highlights that fans have come to expect.</p>\n\n<p>In fact, it’s the organizers’ commitment to quality and desire to offer something more that allows the expo to attract more than <strong>75,000 visitors over the course of four days</strong>.</p>\n\n<h4>Some of the top things to do at EGX are:</h4>\n\n<p><strong>Game Previews:</strong> From PC and console hits to iPhone games, EGX is all about developers showing off their wares and gamers getting a sneak peek at what the next generation of products will offer.</p>\n\n<p><strong>Expert Panels:</strong> Gaming fans can listen to talks and Q&A sessions with some of the industry’s leading figures. Previous panels have featured members of the British Esports Association and the content creators behind <a href=\"/en/blog/football-video-games/\">games such as Football Manager</a>.</p>\n\n<p><strong>Exhibitor Booths: </strong>As well as game previews, prominent figures from the gaming industry, including hardware companies, developers, and pro gamers, host booths at the expo.</p>\n\n<p><strong>Playable Games:</strong> Visitors not only get to learn about new games but play them. EGX events also feature <a href=\"/en/blog/esports/\">eSports</a> tournaments.</p>\n\n<p><strong>Merch:</strong> What’s an expo without merchandise? Like all good gatherings in gaming, visitors can get freebies, as well as official merch from many of the industry’s biggest brands.</p>\n\n<h2>The Future of EGX: Battling Back After COVID</h2>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img alt=\"COVID-19 affected everyone, EGX events were no exception\" src=\"https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2020/12/13/17/24/people-5828891_960_720.jpg\" /></p>\n\n<p>The COVID-19 pandemic forced the organizers to host EGX online in 2020. The virtual event was run in conjunction with PAX Online and featured a variety of game previews and talks.</p>\n\n<p>Among those offering insights into the industry were Mike Pondsmith, creator of Cyberpunk 2020, and Gearbox Software, the company behind Borderlands 3.</p>\n\n<p>Online viewers were also treated to game walkthroughs and some light-hearted reviews.</p>\n\n<p>EGX 2020 may not have been a vintage year for the expo, but the organizers made the best of a bad situation. They were able to head back out on the road in 2021.</p>\n\n<p>However, due to COVID restrictions, the two expos weren’t as free as they otherwise would have been. That’s why EGX 2022 is set to be <strong>one of the biggest yet</strong>.</p>\n\n<p>With the UK free of all COVID restrictions and life returning to (somewhat) normal, London’s ExCel Arena will be a hive of activity between September 22 and 25.</p>\n\n<p>Virgin Media has been drafted in as 2022’s sponsor and there will be a host of activities over the course of four days. From playable games and panels to merch, the expo is set to be as entertaining as ever.</p>\n","date":"4/11/2022"},"images":{"preview":{"alt":"EGX Eurogamer Expo","href":"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2018/week_27/egx.jpg"},"authorAvatar":{"href":"//cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/portal/common/avatars/default_avatar.jpg","sizes":[]}},"template_options":{"compositeId":"14742"}},{"links":{"link":"/en/blog/top-video-game-characters/"},"strings":{"title":"Who Are the Best Video Game Characters of All Time? ","category":"Insights","author":"PLARIUM STAFF","readTime":"360000","description":"<p>Can you name the top video game characters, <strong>ever</strong>? It’s a tough task, but it’s one we’ve embraced.</p>\n\n<p>So, if you scroll down, you’ll see who we’ve ranked among the top ten video game characters in history!</p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">{{banner:default}}</p>\n\n<p>Who are the best video game characters of all time? That’s not an easy question to answer. There are hundreds of beauties, beasts and non-human heroes.</p>\n\n<p>This holds true across the board. For example, you’ve got popular video game characters from mainstream franchises such as Super Mario and Sonic. At the <a href=\"/en/blog/indie-games/\">other end of the spectrum</a>, you’ve got colorful characters from indie games like Shovel Knight.</p>\n\n<p>Then, if you consider the non-player character, the list of options becomes almost endless. However, although it’s hard to find ten top names, that’s exactly what we’ve done.</p>\n\n<p>You might not fully agree with our list, but the following is a rundown of <strong>iconic </strong>video game characters.</p>\n\n<h2>The Ten Best Video Game Characters in Herstory</h2>\n\n<h3>Pac-Man</h3>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img alt=\"Pacman is high up there with the top video game characters ever created\" src=\"https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2018/03/25/01/51/computer-game-3258455_960_720.jpg\" /></p>\n\n<p>If the white line from Pong or the little green craft in Space Invaders aren’t the original iconic video game characters, Pac-Man has to be. Pac-Man, or Puck Man as he was known in Japan, first appeared on our consoles in 1980.</p>\n\n<p>Since then, this <a href=\"https://en.bandainamcoent.eu/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Namco</a> creation has become a phenomenon worth more than <strong>$14 billion</strong> thanks to the franchise churning out everything from clothes to TV shows.</p>\n\n<h3>Lara Croft</h3>\n\n<p>Of all the fantastic female videogame characters, Lara Croft is the best. Her reputation precedes her, especially as she has a strong presence not just in videogames but also in several movies too.</p>\n\n<p>Tony Gard and the team at Core Design wanted Croft to be the antithesis of traditional female game characters. That’s why she’s intelligent (an archeologist), attractive, tough, and, in the real world, <a href=\"https://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/news/2016/11/tomb-raider-cosplay-gathering-sets-world-record-as-lara-croft-is-honoured-at-pari-449505\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">a record-breaker</a>.</p>\n\n<h3>Agent 47</h3>\n\n<p>It will come as no surprise that the quiet, methodical, but ruthless Agent 47 is of Danish descent. Created by IO Interactive, which calls the land of the Vikings home, Agent 47 is one of those video game characters that stands out simply because he doesn’t stand out.</p>\n\n<p>This contract killer is seemingly emotionless and lives in the shadows. That’s what makes Agent 47 a hit man in gaming and <a href=\"https://www.boxofficemojo.com/release/rl2455340545/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">in movies</a>.</p>\n\n<h3>Sylvanas Windrunner</h3>\n\n<p>Whether you know her as the Dark Lady, the Banshee Queen, or Sylvanas Windrunner, this former Warchief is one of the most unforgettable female game characters in herstory. She first appeared in World of Warcraft 3 back in 2002 and instantly made an impact.</p>\n\n<p>Yes, she’s hellbent on revenge against those who ripped out her soul. However, underneath her vicious exterior, Sylvanas has some real substance and, if you’re <a href=\"/en/games/genre/war-games/\">a fan of war games</a>, she’s a great person to have on your side.</p>\n\n<h3>Sonic</h3>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img alt=\"Sonic is another top video game character that's even come into the world of movies\" src=\"https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2015/09/09/21/16/hat-933427_960_720.jpg\" /></p>\n\n<p>You were either a fan of Mario or Sonic back in the day. Although the two have since linked up in various collaborations, Sonic was Sega’s flag bearer and, as such, a competitor to all other video game characters, including Nintendo’s Mario.</p>\n\n<p>From a purely technical perspective, Sonic definitely had the edge - not just in attitude, but he could also run a lot faster than Mario too.</p>\n\n<h3>Elizabeth (BioShock Infinite)</h3>\n\n<p>Action games are all about <a href=\"/en/games/genre/action-games/\">taking control of a character</a> and overcoming whatever challenges present themselves. However, there are times when a non-player character is just as important as the protagonist. That’s the case in BioShock Infinite.</p>\n\n<p>You might not control Elizabeth, but you have to protect her. What’s different about this non-player character is that she’s self-sufficient. You don’t have to hold her hand all the time. That’s ideal in a game like BioShock Infinite where threats come from every angle.</p>\n\n<h3>Ezio Auditore da Firenze</h3>\n\n<p>The best video game characters evolve over time and have a certain amount of depth. OK, so that’s not always the case; look at Pac-Man. However, in the modern age of gaming, characters need to have substance. Firenze has that.</p>\n\n<p>A main figure in the Assassin’s Creed franchise, this Florentine nobleman looks great, has a cool personality, and can fight. What’s more, you get to see his backstory over the course of four main games, something that gives Firenze much more depth.</p>\n\n<h3>Mario</h3>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img alt=\"When most western gamers think of top video game characters, Super Mario is one of the first to pop to mind\" src=\"https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2016/07/30/21/37/mario-1558062_960_720.jpg\" /></p>\n\n<p>The plumber-turned superhero has evolved from a 2D hit into a 3D icon since his first appearance in <a href=\"https://www.arcade-museum.com/game_detail.php?game_id=7610\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Donkey Kong</a> in 1981.</p>\n\n<p>Created by Shigeru Miyamoto, with help from artists Yoichi Kotabe and Shigehisa Nakaue, Mario is easily one of the best video game characters of all time.</p>\n\n<p>As well as the ability to jump like an athlete, this squat plumber became a hit because, for all intents and purposes, he was a <strong>normal </strong>guy. If Mario can be a hero, so can we.</p>\n\n<h3>Crash Bandicoot</h3>\n\n<p>Developed exclusively for PlayStation by Naughty Dog, Crash Bandicoot was and still is one of the most recognizable video game characters of all time. OK, so he doesn’t have the depth of Firenze or the skills of Lara Croft.</p>\n\n<p>However, if you want a humanlike bandicoot that’s fun and a little bit crazy, Crash is your man. Indeed, the fact he first appeared in 1996 and is still going strong is a testament to the popularity of Crash Bandicoot.</p>\n\n<h3>Link</h3>\n\n<p>The Legend of Zelda wouldn’t be as legendary without Link. Since this hero was developed by Shigeru Miyamoto, he’s become one of Nintendo’s leading video game characters. Link has appeared in 19 games, including the original 1986 game, the Legend of Zelda.</p>\n\n<p>We love him because he’s diminutive, but brave. He’s also looking to save another iconic female videogame character, Princess Zelda.</p>\n\n<p>In fact, such is Link’s charm that Guinness Book of Record recognized him as the second-best video game character of all time after Mario, and the most critically acclaimed.</p>\n\n<h2>Best of the Rest: More Fantastic Videogame Characters</h2>\n\n<p>Below is a list of fantastic video game characters that didn’t quite make it into our top ten. That’s not because we don’t love them, it’s simply because there are too many icons to choose from.</p>\n\n<p>So, here, listed without comment, are a few more game characters that have stood the test of time:</p>\n\n<ul>\n\t<li>Rayman from Rayman</li>\n\t<li>Master Chief Petty Officer John-117 from Halo</li>\n\t<li>Kratos from God of War</li>\n\t<li>Solid Snake from Metal Gear Solid</li>\n\t<li>Chun-Li from Street Fighter</li>\n\t<li>Donkey Kong from Donkey Kong</li>\n\t<li>Fox McCloud from Star Fox</li>\n\t<li>Mona Sax from Max Payne</li>\n\t<li>Gordon Freeman from Half-Life</li>\n\t<li>Princess Peach Toadstool from Super Mario</li>\n</ul>\n\n<h2>Video Game Characters that Have Shaped the Industry</h2>\n\n<p>So, there you have it, that’s the top ten video game characters of all time, as well as some bonus entries. Of course, we know there will be some debate and probably a few names you’d like to swap. That’s the beauty of gaming.</p>\n\n<p>Everyone has characters they love more than others. However, what’s not in doubt is the fact our list is full of icons that have stood the test of time and shaped the gaming world.</p>\n","date":"4/7/2022"},"images":{"preview":{"alt":"Who Are the Best Video Game Characters of All Time?

It is the most popular spectator sport throughout America, ahead of the country’s other “major league” sports, namely basketball, baseball, ice hockey, and soccer.</p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">{{banner:default}}</p>\n\n<p>The NFL is the <a href=\"https://bleacherreport.com/articles/11481-why-the-nfl-is-the-most-popular-sport-in-america\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">pinnacle of American Football</a>, with tens of thousands of college football students battling to make the grade each year.</p>\n\n<p>The ambition for every NFL franchise at the start of the season is to reach the postseason stage and compete for the <a href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vince_Lombardi_Trophy\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Lombardi Trophy</a> by reaching the Super Bowl. This is one of the biggest sporting occasions on the planet, watched by a global audience.</p>\n\n<p>It’s no surprise that the Super Bowl has inspired many video game developers to design and publish authentic Super Bowl games that demonstrate the effort and skill that goes into an NFL season.</p>\n\n<h2>Super Bowl Games History</h2>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/MWOQJdE8Sd0\" title=\"YouTube video player\" width=\"560\"></iframe></p>\n\n<p>The first example of Super Bowl games on home games consoles was the Tecmo Super Bowl game, published in December 1991. It was the first of many Super Bowl games to be fully licensed by the <a href=\"https://www.nfl.com/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">NFL (National Football League)</a> and the <a href=\"https://nflpa.com/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">NFL Players Association</a>.</p>\n\n<p>In doing so, Tecmo Super Bowl was permitted to use official NFL team names and player names. Other Super Bowl games released prior to Tecmo Super Bowl were unable to use real player and team names simultaneously, which hampered their authenticity.</p>\n\n<p>The original Tecmo Super Bowl was published for the NES originally and latterly the Super NES, Sega Genesis, and the Sony PlayStation 1.</p>\n\n<p>The game achieved cult status among gridiron fans, with a vibrant community of “mods” that would edit the game at the start of each season to ensure updated rosters were available to gamers.</p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/x2FVk3qIHiY\" title=\"YouTube video player\" width=\"560\"></iframe></p>\n\n<p>Prior to Tecmo Super Bowl, the most popular Super Bowl games were the John Madden Football series. Originally published on the Apple II, it was later ported to MS-DOS and the Commodore 64.</p>\n\n<p>The initial series lacked season play, which hampered its authenticity somewhat. When you think of how many games in an NFL season including the Super Bowl, the absence of the season play failed to get across just how grueling the regular and postseason is.</p>\n\n<p>It wasn’t until the partnership with EA Tiburon for EA Sports in 1994 that the Madden NFL franchise we know today truly came to light.</p>\n\n<h2>The Rise of Madden NFL</h2>\n\n<p>Madden NFL was established in 1993 after EA Sports secured the licensing rights to include NFL players and teams in each of its annual releases.</p>\n\n<p>Within three years it had shifted over eight million units, becoming not only one of the best-selling Super Bowl games, but one of the most popular titles in the sports genre.</p>\n\n<p>The 1998 version saw EA incorporate a “Franchise Mode”, whereby players could assume the role of a franchise’s general manager, trading players and getting involved in the postseason NFL Draft.</p>\n\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">The best one yet…<br />\n<br />\nTag your <a href=\"https://twitter.com/hashtag/Madden22?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Madden22</a> rival & their persona 🤣 <a href=\"https://t.co/AcoS4PHokI\">pic.twitter.com/AcoS4PHokI</a></p>\n— Madden Championship Series (@MaddenLeagueOps) <a href=\"https://twitter.com/MaddenLeagueOps/status/1510684310575136773?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 3, 2022</a></blockquote>\n\n<h3>Madden22 trending on Twitter</h3>\n<script async src=\"https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"></script>\n\n<p>Feature additions to future Madden NFL releases include the “Madden Challenge”, where gridiron fans can travel back in time to change the course of history in some of the most iconic games of all time.</p>\n\n<p>“Superstar Mode” also gave players the chance to take control of one rookie hopeful and lead them to glory in Super Bowl games throughout their career.</p>\n\n<h2>Alternative List of Super Bowl Games</h2>\n\n<p>Although Madden NFL is considered the most successful of all the NFL video games franchises, there are many other video game developers that have dabbled with publishing fun Super Bowl games for gridiron fans to enjoy.</p>\n\n<p>Many of which ended up being one-off efforts that failed to knock Madden NFL off its perch as “top dog” in the NFL gaming stakes.</p>\n\n<ul>\n\t<li>\n\t<h3>ESPN NFL 2K5</h3>\n\t</li>\n</ul>\n\n<p>Many NFL video games experts believe that ESPN NFL 2K5 was one of the finest console-based Super Bowl games in history. It was the sixth – and final – version of ESPN NFL, released on the Microsoft Xbox and the Sony PlayStation 2. ESPN NFL benefitted from official NFL licensing, with impressive player likenesses and immersive ESPN broadcasters and analysts featured. It was also available at less than half the price of its Madden NFL competitor. Despite the popularity of its tight, responsive controls and player moves, and visuals, ESPN NFL was ditched when the NFL signed a long-term arrangement with Electronic Arts (EA), resulting in the end for Sega-published gridiron titles.</p>\n\n<ul>\n\t<li>\n\t<h3>NFL GameDay</h3>\n\t</li>\n</ul>\n\n<p>In November 1995, Sony Interactive took the plunge to develop and publish its own NFL video game. NFL GameDay was aimed at providing a credible challenge to the Madden NFL franchise, by utilizing motion capture animations to add a new dimension to Super Bowl games on the PlayStation 1. GameDay was briefly the best-selling PlayStation 1 game of all-time prior to the release of Resident Evil. The accuracy in terms of stadia, team jerseys, and playbooks set GameDay apart, along with its authentic AI gameplay.</p>\n\n<ul>\n\t<li>\n\t<h3>NFL Street</h3>\n\t</li>\n</ul>\n\n<p>EA Sports’ FIFA Street proved to be a fascinating and popular alternative to the in-depth nature of its FIFA franchise, bringing informal “street” soccer to our video game consoles. EA Sports’ attempts to replicate this success with a smaller 7-v-7 NFL Street game failed in too many ways. Although it appeals to entry-level gridiron fans, enthusiasts of Super Bowl games quickly grew bored of the lack of depth once NFL Street’s stylistic features were mastered.</p>\n\n<ul>\n\t<li>\n\t<h3>NFL Blitz</h3>\n\t</li>\n</ul>\n\n<p>NFL Blitz was a partnership between EA Sports and Midway Games, the masterminds of arcade games and <a href=\"/en/games/genre/strategy-games/\">strategy games</a> from yesteryear. What initially began as an arcade game in the late 1990s was quickly ported onto home consoles. NFL Blitz was the antithesis of Madden NFL. It was designed to be over-the-top and extravagant, just like Midway’s successful NBA Jam franchise. However, the move to next-generation consoles like the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 saw gridiron fans crave authenticity, with NFL Blitz cast aside for Madden’s licensed and immersive Super Bowl games.</p>\n\n<p>Today, you can find the best Super Bowl games like Madden NFL on mobile devices, as well as the latest consoles. Some <a href=\"/en/blog/football-video-games/\">Super Bowl and Football games</a> are even considered among the best <a href=\"/en/blog/best-ios-games/\">iOS games of 2022</a>, along with other immersive genres <a href=\"/en/games/genre/war-games/\">like war games</a> that offer similar all-action gameplay.</p>\n","date":"4/6/2022"},"images":{"preview":{"alt":"Immerse yourself in Super Bowl games!","href":"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2017/week_35/toxicity-in-mmo-troll.jpg"},"authorAvatar":{"href":"//cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/portal/common/avatars/default_avatar.jpg","sizes":[]}},"template_options":{"compositeId":"14740"}},{"links":{"link":"/en/blog/space-games/"},"strings":{"title":"The Top Space Games to Play & What Makes Them the Best","category":"Insights","author":"PLARIUM STAFF","readTime":"360000","description":"<p>Calling all budding space conquerors: If exploring new planets or saving planet Earth from alien invasion lights your fire, read on as we explore the top space video games to savour on desktop, console, or mobile!</p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">{{banner:default}}</p>\n\n<p>Space games have been some of the best-selling video game franchises since the 1970s, and continue being some of the <a href=\"/en/games/\">most loved video games</a> around since then.</p>\n\n<p>Developers have long been passionate about showcasing what <a href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_Invaders\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">the galaxy looks like</a> beyond the shores of Mother Earth.</p>\n\n<p>Within this article, we’re boldly going where few have gone before to list the leading space games you can enjoy on any device right now. You might be surprised to find that some of the top space video games <em>aren’t </em>attached to successful global franchises.</p>\n\n<p>Instead, these specific outer space games rely heavily on storyline and game mechanics to cement themselves as one of the must-play titles in the space gaming genre.</p>\n\n<h2 id=\"what-makes-the-best-space-video-games?\">What Makes the Best Space Video Games?</h2>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/hEdzv7D4CbQ\" title=\"YouTube video player\" width=\"560\"></iframe></p>\n\n<p>One of the keys to successful space games on desktop or console is the ability to immerse yourself in new intergalactic environments.</p>\n\n<p>Outer space is an uncertain yet engaging place for people on Earth and gamers have the unique opportunity to transport themselves into other-worldly scenarios and settings to battle aliens or conquer untapped worlds.</p>\n\n<p>Given the remote nature of outer space, many gamers that enjoy space games enjoy that feeling of detachment – removed from all sense of reality. They enjoy the feeling of loneliness as they battle for survival on infested spaceships and lands.</p>\n\n<p>In a nutshell, the leading outer space games shake you to your core, and remove you from everyday life, if only for an hour or two.</p>\n\n<h2 id=\"the-parent-genres-involved-in-the-space-games-genre\">The Parent Genres Involved in the Space Games Genre</h2>\n\n<p>When it comes to the essence of the leading space games, there are multiple parent gaming genres involved in establishing “space” as such an encapsulating gaming subgenre.</p>\n\n<h3 id=\"space-shooting-games\">Space Shooting Games</h3>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/DJmNIeEOHwA\" title=\"YouTube video player\" width=\"560\"></iframe></p>\n\n<p>The sci-fi gaming subgenre has taken many elements from the <a href=\"/en/games/genre/shooting-games/\">shooter</a> parent gaming genre.</p>\n\n<p>Instead of the shooting action taking place on barren military battlegrounds or on the mean streets of modern-day suburbia, you can find yourself well beyond Earth’s atmosphere shooting at spaceships, aliens and other outer space life forms.</p>\n\n<p>All of which demand you to shoot to survive, which leads us neatly onto our next parent genre.</p>\n\n<h3 id=\"space-survival-games\">Space Survival Games</h3>\n\n<p>There are many space-themed titles that create that sense of loneliness and isolation. You’re often pitched in lightyears away from Earth, with your life on the line.</p>\n\n<p><a href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alien:_Isolation\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Alien: Isolation</a> is a prime example of a recent title with <a href=\"/en/games/genre/survival-games/\">distinct survival games characteristics</a>, as you battle to avoid the clutches of a seemingly unstoppable xenomorph.</p>\n\n<h3 id=\"space-action-games\">Space Action Games</h3>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/7YEUwIyam6w\" title=\"YouTube video player\" width=\"560\"></iframe></p>\n\n<p>The action parent genre is often characterized by gamers taking control of a central protagonist or avatar, and there are plenty of these in the latest space games.</p>\n\n<p>It’s often a battle of wills and wits to collect tools, weapons and other items and combine them with your impeccable hand-eye coordination to overcome intergalactic enemies.</p>\n\n<h3 id=\"space-adventure-games\">Space Adventure Games</h3>\n\n<p>Exploring the unknown is what underpins the gameplay of the best space games PC-based or otherwise.</p>\n\n<p>As with action games, adventure games also typically follow the trails of an in-game protagonist, with the narrative of many leading space-themed titles powered by a protagonist’s need to problem-solve or seek out new outer space environments.</p>\n\n<h2 id=\"the-7-best-space-games-on-the-planet-today\">The 7 Best Space Games on the Planet Today</h2>\n\n<p>Whichever space game subgenre gets your heart pounding deep within your spacesuit, there’s sure to be a title that ticks your boxes. Below, we explore seven of the games most enjoyed by space lovers across planet Earth in 2022:</p>\n\n<ol>\n\t<li>Alien: Isolation\n\t<p>Despite not being a new game, and having earlier said in this article that most of the leading space games don’t need to lean heavily on the marketing power of a franchise, Alien: Isolation stands out as a fine game in its own right.</p>\n\n\t<p>Fusing terrifying sound effects and bleak environments, this is one of the jumpiest space-themed video game titles you’ll see this year.</p>\n\t</li>\n\t<li>Dead Space\n\t<p>Dead Space fits neatly inside the survival horror space subgenre. The narrative of this game is based on your protagonist being trapped inside a railway station. Unfortunately for you, you’re by no means alone.</p>\n\n\t<p>Flesh-eating creatures lurk behind every corner. Mining lasers are your friend here to survive. The over-the-shoulder visuals take some getting used to, but it all helps to add to the claustrophobia of the concept.</p>\n\t</li>\n\t<li>Star Trek Online\n\t<p>It’s taken some time but Star Trek Online has finally got the attention and plaudits it deserves. It’s now one of the leading <a href=\"/en/blog/space-mmo/\">space-themed MMORPGs</a>, with space battles providing open team combat around Starfleet Command.</p>\n\n\t<p>Star Trek fans will enjoy a pilgrimage into some of the regular episode missions and the chance to acquire plenty of Star Trek memorabilia due to in-game microtransactions.</p>\n\t</li>\n\t<li>Eve Valkyrie\n\t<p>There are few space-themed titles that offer such an immersive, first-person perspective as Eve Valkyrie.</p>\n\n\t<p>Step foot into the cockpit for an all-action dogfight, steering your spaceship from one gruelling air battle to the next.</p>\n\t</li>\n\t<li>Distant Worlds: Universe\n\t<p>Distant Worlds: Universe is a timeless classic when it comes to space-themed games. It’s more of a strategy space title, which allows you to embark on a mission to build your own intergalactic empire.</p>\n\n\t<p>Even if space wars aren’t your cup of tea, you can leave these battlegrounds in the hands of the sophisticated AI and focus on exploring the universe.</p>\n\t</li>\n\t<li>Elite Dangerous\n\t<p>Fire up the impressive Elite Dangerous and get your hands on your very own spaceship. Explore untapped planets, head out onto their unknown surfaces on your on-board dune buggy to feed your inner explorer.</p>\n\n\t<p>Consider yourself the gatekeeper of the galaxy in this hugely immersive, open-world title.</p>\n\t</li>\n\t<li>Kerbal Space Program\n\t<p>Last but by no means least, the Kerbal Space Program is a fascinating space game, designed with wannabee NASA employees firmly in mind.</p>\n\n\t<p>This title is not so much about exploring outer space and even less so about <a href=\"/en/blog/realistic-games/\">realistic graphics in games</a> typically modelled on space, but more about finding ways to get there in the first place.</p>\n\n\t<p>Think of it as one of the leading space simulation games - allowing you to design your own rockets and vessels with the physics and raw power to get through Earth’s atmosphere and reach the Moon and dock with modular space stations.</p>\n\t</li>\n</ol>\n","date":"4/5/2022"},"images":{"preview":{"alt":"The top outer space games","href":"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2019/june/illustrations/27.png"},"authorAvatar":{"href":"//cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/portal/common/avatars/default_avatar.jpg","sizes":[]}},"template_options":{"compositeId":"14739"}},{"links":{"link":"/en/blog/dreamhack/"},"strings":{"title":"DreamHack Events: eSports and Gaming on a Whole Other Level","category":"Insights","author":"PLARIUM STAFF","readTime":"360000","description":"<p>For eSports and gaming festivals that are of the highest quality, there’s only one production company to turn to: DreamHack.</p>\n\n<p>Anticipation is building for DreamHack 2022, and with 10 events taking place in nine cities, as well as open competitions, it’s set to be another busy year for gaming’s leading production company. To find out why DreamHack does it better than the rest, scroll down.</p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">{{banner:default}}</p>\n\n<p>Of course, if you’re new to the industry or you’re not a massive eSports fan, you might not know what DreamHack is or, more specifically, <em>why </em>its events are so popular.</p>\n\n<p>With this in mind, here’s everything you need to know about the biggest <a href=\"/en/blog/lan-parties/\">LAN parties</a> and gaming events in the world.</p>\n\n<h2 id=\"what-is-dreamhack-and-what-does-it-do?\">What is DreamHack and What Does it Do?</h2>\n\n<p>DreamHack is one of the largest production companies in gaming. Operating under the mantra, “where the gaming community comes to life,” DreamHack is responsible for some of the biggest and best events in the industry.</p>\n\n<p>In fact, this Swedish company was recognized by the <a href=\"https://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/world-records/largest-lan-party\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Guinness Book of Records</a> for hosting the world’s largest LAN party and computer festival. DreamHack also held the record for fastest internet connection at a large-scale gaming event before it was beaten by The Gathering in Norway.</p>\n\n<p>To put it simply, DreamHack is a production company that hosts events where thousands of gamers congregate to play all manner of console and <a href=\"/en/games/platform/pc-games/\">PC games</a>. These events not only offer LAN parties, but expos, actual parties, and activities.</p>\n\n<p>Finally, for those at the elite end of gaming, DreamHack events feature pro eSports tournaments, while the DreamHack Open is a chance for gamers to prove their worth and qualify for the big leagues.</p>\n\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Did anyone watch the <a href=\"https://twitter.com/hashtag/IEM?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#IEM</a> finals this past weekend? 🤩<br />\n<br />\nCan't wait to host the ESL Pro League at our DreamHack festivals this year. <a href=\"https://t.co/Pk7islJv9i\">pic.twitter.com/Pk7islJv9i</a></p>\n— DreamHack (@DreamHack) <a href=\"https://twitter.com/DreamHack/status/1499384574601797636?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 3, 2022</a></blockquote>\n<script async src=\"https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"></script>\n\n<p>Of course, like all success stories, DreamHack had to start from the bottom and work its way up. The company was founded in 1994 and held its first event in Malung, Sweden. Since then, the company has evolved and expanded in a variety of ways.</p>\n\n<p>Fueling this growth was a deal with Modern Times Group. After becoming part of a digital entertainment empire, DreamHack has had the resources to create even more events and forge deals with major names in the industry, such as <a href=\"https://www.epicgames.com/site/en-US/home\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Epic Games</a>.</p>\n\n<p>Today, events like Epic Games DreamHack and the DreamHack Open run in tandem with an international schedule of eSports tournaments. To show you what we mean, here are some of the main reasons DreamHack is a leading name in eSports and gaming.</p>\n\n<h3 id=\"dreamhack-pro-competitions\">DreamHack Pro Competitions</h3>\n\n<p>Every DreamHack event features pro-level gaming tournaments. In fact, they’re the focal point for each stop.</p>\n\n<p>Thanks to the company's links with one of the leading eSports games, CS:GO, many of the world's top Counter-Strike players compete at events such as DreamHack Masters.</p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/B_EEFXL1gZo\" title=\"YouTube video player\" width=\"560\"></iframe></p>\n\n<p>Some names to look out for are: <a href=\"/en/blog/interview-s1mple/\">Oleksandr “s1mple” Kostyliev</a>, Sergei 'Sergiz' Atamanchuk, and Mathieu \"ZywOo\" Herbaut.</p>\n\n<p>The DreamHack Open is an annual series of competitions for aspiring eSports teams. It's part of the <a href=\"http://pro.eslgaming.com/tour/csgo/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">ESL Pro Tour</a> and CS:GO teams can go online and use the DreamHack register button enter.</p>\n\n<p>The winners of these Challenger level tournaments earn points that help them move towards the EPT Masters Championship. Put simply, these tournaments take place online and serve as feeders for the major leagues.</p>\n\n<h3 id=\"epic-games-dreamhack\">Epic Games DreamHack</h3>\n\n<p>The Epic Games DreamHack partnership has resulted in a number of interesting gaming events, including the DreamHack Open Featuring Fortnite. DreamHack has long been a place for gamers to test <a href=\"/en/blog/best-mmorpgs-2022/\">MMORPGs of 2022</a> and beyond.</p>\n\n<p>Now, MMO fans can take part in community-focused Fortnite tournaments online thanks to Epic Games and DreamHack. As well as being entertaining, these events have prizepools topping<strong> $250,000.</strong></p>\n\n<h2 id=\"why-are-dreamhack-events-popular?\">Why Are DreamHack Events Popular?</h2>\n\n<p>Every festival is more than a place for people to play games. As we’ve said, there are pro-level tournaments, as well as open events. However, DreamHack also provides the infrastructure for mega-LAN parties.</p>\n\n<p>All visitors have to do is bring their own computer and connect to the network.</p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/Zwb8pQ337L8\" title=\"YouTube video player\" width=\"560\"></iframe></p>\n\n<p>If that’s not enough to get people using the DreamHack register button, these events feature cosplay, exclusive screenings of movies and games, artwork, activities, and live music from bands such as Trivium.</p>\n\n<p>In short, DreamHack events are more than eSports competitions, they’re all-round entertainment experiences.</p>\n\n<h2 id=\"dreamhack-and-esl\">DreamHack and ESL</h2>\n\n<p>Even though DreamHack events aren’t all about gaming, the company’s connection to eSports can’t be understated. As well as giving pro teams a platform to play in front of huge audiences, DreamHack has created a culture.</p>\n\n<p>Today, people not only want to attend DreamHack, they want to play in open events for a chance to become eSports pros.</p>\n\n<p>The look and feel of DreamHack events also can’t be understated. The company spends significant sums of money to ensure the infrastructure powering its LAN parties is second-to-none.</p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/jXmfDp8haVg\" title=\"YouTube video player\" width=\"560\"></iframe></p>\n\n<p>It also invests heavily in extracurricular activities such as booking bands and organizing activities like tabletop tournaments and dodgeball battles.</p>\n\n<p>The aim is to run events that everyone, from hardcore gamers to recreationals who only play <a href=\"/en/games/platform/mobile-games/\">mobile games</a>, love.</p>\n\n<p>This is not only great for those who attend, but eSports in general because DreamHack has raised the profile of gaming and piqued the interests of people outside of the industry. That, in turn, has made eSports much more of a mainstream activity.</p>\n\n<h2 id=\"dreamhack-2022-schedule\">DreamHack 2022 Schedule</h2>\n\n<p>The DreamHack 2021 schedule was something of a break from the norm because it featured online events. However, it's back to a full roster of live action this year.</p>\n\n<p>The DreamHack 2022 schedule is packed with action and, as we move through the year, we'll see a clear progression from the DreamHack 2021 series.</p>\n\n<h4 id=\"dreamhack-2022-events\">DreamHack 2022 Events</h4>\n\n<ul>\n\t<li>DreamHack Dallas: June 3-5</li>\n\t<li>DreamHack Summer (Jönköping, Sweden): July 18-21</li>\n\t<li>DreamHack Valencia: July 1-3</li>\n\t<li>DreamHack Melbourne: September 2-4</li>\n\t<li>DreamHack Rotterdam: October 14-16</li>\n\t<li>DreamHack Hyderabad: October 15-17</li>\n\t<li>DreamHack Atlanta: November 18-20</li>\n\t<li>DreamHack Winter (Jönköping, Sweden): November 24-27</li>\n\t<li>DreamHack Madrid: December 9-11</li>\n</ul>\n\n<p>Anyone interested in attending these events can go online and use the DreamHack register button to buy tickets. Even if you’ve never played an RPG or watched eSports before, they’re a great way to find out what the gaming community is all about and have some fun!</p>\n","date":"4/3/2022"},"images":{"preview":{"alt":"Welcome to

Well, in some respects, it is.</p>\n\n<p>However, thanks to George Lucas and the sci-fi community, it has a significance beyond the passing of time. Why? Because it’s also Star Wars Day!</p>\n\n<p>What is Star Wars Day? Why is it called Star Wars Day? And how do you celebrate Star Wars May 4th Day? We’ve answered those questions and more in our guide to May the 4th.</p>\n\n<h2>What is the Meaning of May the 4th be with You?</h2>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img alt=\"One of the most prominent figures quoted to this day as saying \"May the force be with you!\" - Yoda\" src=\"https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2015/03/11/01/21/yoda-667955_960_720.jpg\" /></p>\n\n<p>May the 4th be with you is a reference to the immortal phrase uttered by Jedis: <q>may the force be with you</q>. Given the phonetic similarities between the phrases <em><strong>May the 4th</strong></em> and <em><strong>may the force</strong></em>, Star Wars fans have claimed the date as their own.</p>\n\n<p>In line with this, May 4th Star Wars Day is a time for sci-fans, aspiring Jedis, and people from galaxies far, far away to come together. Whether it’s physically or virtually, Star Wars enthusiasts will congregate to celebrate their favorite movie franchise in a variety of ways.</p>\n\n<p>Such is the popularity of May the day and its celebrations, that it’s now recognized by <a href=\"https://www.lucasfilm.com/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Lucasfilm</a> and its parent company, <a href=\"https://www.disney.com\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Disney</a>. This has resulted in a variety of official and unofficial May 4th Star Wars Day events.</p>\n\n<p>Before we explain what’s in store for May the fourth be with you in 2022, here’s a bit about the day’s cultural significance.</p>\n\n<h2>Who Says May the Fourth Be with You? The Cultural Significance of May 4th</h2>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/VH83SsL_fIQ\" title=\"YouTube video player\" width=\"560\"></iframe></p>\n\n<p>George Lucas created the original Star Wars movie in 1977. It became an instant hit and, even after more than 40 years, it is still remembered fondly.</p>\n\n<p>With Lucas striking a chord with his tale of intergalactic warriors battling across far away worlds, two subsequent movies were released (the Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi).</p>\n\n<p>At this point, a culture was developing around Star Wars. Action figures and games were being released. Fast-forward to today and the <a href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Wars\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Wikipedia entry for Star Wars</a> describes it as an “American epic space-opera multimedia franchise.”</p>\n\n<p>In other words, it’s an ongoing saga that encompasses movies and more.</p>\n\n<p>In fact, if you look through the franchise as a whole, you’ll find Star Wars collectibles, TV shows, board games, and more. If you’re a gamer, fans of the sci-fi saga have gone as far as to adapt <a href=\"/en/blog/dnd-classes/\">Dungeons and Dragons</a> (D&D) to include a Star Wars quest.</p>\n\n<p>Put simply, Star Wars has become much more than a series of movies and that’s why May the 4th be with you is such a big event.</p>\n\n<h2>When is May the 4th Be with You Day?</h2>\n\n<p>Well, you don’t have to be a genius to work out that May the fourth be with you day is on May 4th. It’s an annual event that’s been officially celebrated since 2011. However, there were pockets of activity around the world long before May 4th was recognized as an official day.</p>\n\n<p>By 2013, Disney began observing the annual celebration. That’s led to a variety of interesting and entertaining events. From special screenings of Star Wars to fancy dress parties, people are now celebrating May the 4th be with you Day in a myriad of ways.</p>\n\n<h2>How Do You Celebrate?</h2>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img alt=\"Star Wars fans cosplaying as Siths\" src=\"https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2017/04/25/22/54/sith-2261087_960_720.jpg\" /></p>\n\n<p>Saying May the fourth be with you is the easiest way to observe Star Wars Day. It also lets people know that you’re a sci-fi fan. However, if your love for Luke Skywalker et al runs deeper, you can take part in a variety of special events on May 4th.</p>\n\n<p>Previous May the 4th be with you days have seen festivals take place around the world, online screenings, and more.</p>\n\n<h3>2022-Relevant May the 4th celebrations include:</h3>\n\n<h4>Wearing the Official T-Shirt:</h4>\n\n<ul>\n\t<li>To mark May the 4th be with you Day, Disney has created official t-shirts. Costing $24.99 each, the Star Wars May 4th t-shirts feature the famous saying, Yoda, and various characters, including Boba Fett.</li>\n</ul>\n\n<h4>Star Wars Celebration 2022:</h4>\n\n<ul>\n\t<li>It may not be taking place on May the 4th, but the 2022 Star Wars convention <em>is </em>happening in May.

As well as celebrity guests and exhibits, there will be people in costumes, games, and more. So, if you buy tickets, you can celebrate May 4th Star Wars Day by preparing an outfit for the convention.</li>\n</ul>\n\n<h4>Learn How to Become a Jedi:</h4>\n\n<ul>\n\t<li>If you own an Amazon Alexa, you can say the following phrase on May 4th: “Alexa begin my Jedi lesson.” That request starts a series of nine lessons every Jedi needs to learn. You can also play a variety of Star Wars games with Alexa!</li>\n</ul>\n\n<h4>Special Releases:</h4>\n\n<ul>\n\t<li>May the 4th will also be a chance for you to get special previews, spoofs, and toys courtesy of StarWars.com.

Based on the information published so far, this is how gamers can get their expo fix in 2022:</p>\n\n<ul>\n\t<li>PAX East: 21-24 April 2022, Boston Convention & Exhibition Center</li>\n\t<li>PAX West: Dates TBA in Seattle</li>\n\t<li>PAX AUS: Dates TBA in Melbourne</li>\n\t<li>PAX Unplugged: Dates TBA in Philadelphia</li>\n</ul>\n\n<h2 id=\"what-exactly-is-pax?\">What Exactly is PAX?</h2>\n\n<p><strong>PAX stands for Penny Arcade Expo</strong>. The original PAX convention took place in 2004. It was created by the authors of the webcomic <a href=\"https://www.penny-arcade.com/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Penny Arcade</a>, Jerry Holkins, and Mike Krahulik. Holkins and Krahulik wanted to create a show specifically for gaming and, with their first love being penny arcade and tabletop games, PAX was born.</p>\n\n<p>The popularity of PAX has increased over the years and, in line with demand for tickets, the convention has evolved. From<a href=\"https://www.paxsite.com/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\"> the original PAX</a>, which attracted 3,300 attendees, it grew from a single-day expo to a four-day event.</p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img alt=\"Pax convention is a completely immersive experience\" src=\"https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/45/Pax06expofloor.jpg\" /></p>\n\n<p>The first four-day expo was dubbed PAX Prime and attracted over 70,000 visitors in 2013. Also, part of this initial growth phase was a partnership with ReedPop. The events company has helped turn Penny Arcade’s one-time event into an annual series of expos.</p>\n\n<p>Before PAX Prime, the organizers had already started experimenting with expos outside of the original host city, Seattle. In 2010, PAX East took place in Boston’s Hynes Convention Center. With over 67,000 attendees, PAX East quickly became a rival to PAX Prime.</p>\n\n<p>By 2012, the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center had become the home of PAX East, which was now a staple of Penny Arcade’s calendar of events.</p>\n\n<h3 id=\"the-evolution-of-pax\">The Evolution of PAX</h3>\n\n<p>Between 2013 and 2015, <strong>PAX Australia</strong> and <strong>PAX South</strong> were added to the schedule. The inaugural PAX AUS took place in 2013 at the Melbourne Showgrounds before it moved to the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Center.</p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img alt=\"Ubisoft at PAX\" src=\"https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2017/08/24/14/10/gamescom-2676958_960_720.jpg\" /></p>\n\n<p>Back in the US, the first PAX South took place in San Antonio and became the biggest inaugural Penny Arcade event in history. Unfortunately, despite the initial popularity of PAX South, it was discontinued in 2021 because of waning interest.</p>\n\n<p>Adding to the PAX schedule of events in 2017 was Unplugged. This expo focused on one specific feature of the Penny Arcade universe, tabletop games. This genre had been a bit-part player in previous PAX conventions.</p>\n\n<p>However, a surge of interest in tabletop games allowed a spinoff event to be made. PAX Unplugged might not be as popular as Pax East and Pax West, but is an integral part of the annual line-up.</p>\n\n<p>Each PAX event has its own nuances but, overall, they all have the same fundamental structure. The only notable change in recent years is the renaming of PAX Prime to PAX West. So, that’s just about all you need to know about the history of PAX.</p>\n\n<p>Looking forward, PAX 2022 is on the horizon. So, with this in mind, here are the details you need to know…</p>\n\n<ul>\n</ul>\n\n<h2 id=\"registration:-how-to-attend-penny-arcade-expos\">Registration: How to Attend Penny Arcade Expos</h2>\n\n<p>All Penny Arcade Expo events are ticket-only. That means you need to register online and buy badges. These badges can get you access to specific days. Alternatively, you can get badges that give you access to the expo for four days.</p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img alt=\"Most conventions require a badge or a pass in order to get in\" src=\"https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2016/03/24/14/43/access-1276873_960_720.jpg\" /></p>\n\n<p>Unlike some gaming expos, Penny Arcade and ReedPop have kept the entrance fee to an affordable level. For PAX East 2022, the price for single and multi-day badges was:</p>\n\n<ul>\n\t<li>Single Day PAX East Badge = $62</li>\n\t<li>Four-Day PAX East Badge = $235</li>\n</ul>\n\n<h2 id=\"what’s-on-at-pax-conventions?\">What’s On at PAX Conventions?</h2>\n\n<p>Every PAX convention is a celebration of arcade games and tabletop games. There are interactive elements where attendees can play <a href=\"/en/games/genre/survival-games/\">games of survival</a>, <a href=\"/en/games/category/new-games/\">new releases</a>, arcade hits, and more.</p>\n\n<p>There are expert panels covering a variety of topics, including the development of hit games, new technology and more.</p>\n\n<p>Put simply, PAX is an all-encompassing experience that covers everything the gaming world offers. For those looking to attend at Penny Arcade Expo, here are the things you can see and do:</p>\n\n<ul>\n\t<li>The Expo Hall is where you can find previews of new games, technology, and content from AAA publishers, indie developers, and the biggest names in the industry.</li>\n\t<li>Meet and greets with popular figures from the world of gaming.</li>\n\t<li>Merchandise from developers, tech companies, and other brands that make gaming great.</li>\n\t<li>Console free-play area where you can enjoy thousands of gaming hits for free.</li>\n\t<li>Expert panels and keynote speeches about new developers, <a href=\"/en/blog/meta-in-gaming/\">meta in gaming</a>, hot topics, and popular debates within the industry.</li>\n\t<li><a href=\"/en/blog/lan-parties/\">LAN Parties</a> where you can connect your own PC/Laptop to a local network and compete with your fellow PAX attendees.</li>\n\t<li>PAX Arena featuring pro eSports tournaments.</li>\n\t<li>PAX Rising Showcase is a part of the expo where budding developers can show off their products.</li>\n\t<li>Community meetups are a chance for gamers to chat, relax, party, and have fun.</li>\n\t<li>The Handheld Lounge gives attendees somewhere to relax while playing a variety of <a href=\"/en/games/os/android-games/\">Android</a> and <a href=\"/en/games/os/ios-games/\">iOS games</a>.</li>\n\t<li>Pinny Arcade is a place where attendees can view and trade <a href=\"https://gamingpins.co.uk/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">gaming-themed pins</a>.</li>\n</ul>\n\n<p>That’s just a <em>taste </em>of what happens at PAX East, PAX West, PAX AUS, and PAX Unplugged. If you’re a fan of gaming, these expos are a great way to immerse yourself in everything the industry has to offer.</p>\n","date":"4/14/2022"},"images":{"preview":{"alt":"PAX is a must-attend convention","href":"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2017/week_49/image-1.jpg"},"authorAvatar":{"href":"//cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/portal/common/avatars/default_avatar.jpg","sizes":[]}},"template_options":{"compositeId":"14755"}},{"links":{"link":"/en/blog/raid-third-anniversary/"},"strings":{"title":"Celebrate the Third Raid: Shadow Legends Anniversary in Style!","category":"Insights","author":"PLARIUM STAFF","readTime":"180000","description":"<p>Raid: Shadow Legends is turning three years old, and to celebrate, we are rolling out a series of amazing goodies, including personalized videos and free characters!</p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">{{banner:default}}</p>\n\n<p>The epic freemium fantasy <a href=\"/en/blog/gacha-games/\">gacha game</a>, Raid: Shadow Legends, is celebrating its third anniversary.

DDR5 RAM is the fifth iteration of Double Data Rate Synchronous Dynamic Random-Access Memory (DDR SDRAM).</p>\n\n<p>Your computer’s memory is still the beating heart of your gaming PC’s hardware, designed to handle the operation of all your installed games and applications, from <a href=\"/en/games/genre/survival-games/\">survival</a> to <a href=\"/en/games/genre/shooting-games/\">first-person shooter</a> games.</p>\n\n<p>Within this guide to DDR5 RAM, we’ll explore the headline improvements on DDR4 RAM and whether you should start to invest in DDR5 RAM from now onwards.</p>\n\n<h2>DDR5 RAM: Setting a new standard for PC memory</h2>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img alt=\"DDR RAM\" src=\"https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2012/04/01/12/46/ddr-ram-23270_960_720.png\" /></p>\n\n<p>DDR5 RAM was released into the ether in early November 2021. It was pitched alongside the 12th generation GPUs from Intel, as well as its Z690 motherboards.</p>\n\n<p>They are already being sold in the “Alder Lake” desktop processors from Intel Core. At the time of their release, they were the only mainstream chips compatible with the latest DDR5 RAM.</p>\n\n<p>However, that is sure to change in the coming weeks and months. There is an expectation within the gaming industry that most devices that currently lean on DDR4 RAM will be required to migrate over to DDR5 RAM.</p>\n\n<p>Gaming RAM is one of the most important pieces of hardware for your gaming, allowing your computer to handle temporary storage of data within your PC and giving you the chance to be fast and agile when it counts.</p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img alt=\"Gaming Computer Set Up\" src=\"https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2021/12/30/12/09/gaming-computer-6903836_960_720.jpg\" /></p>\n\n<h3>Is DDR5 RAM available yet?</h3>\n\n<p>Yes, DDR5 RAM is available, although it has limited supporting hardware at present.</p>\n\n<p>The Alder Lake and Z690 chipset are the only compatible mainstream platforms featuring it at present.</p>\n\n<p>However, the likes of AMD and Samsung are investing heavily in ramping up mass production of superfast DDR5 RAM in the near future.</p>\n\n<h3>Is DDR5 RAM available for laptops?</h3>\n\n<p>Yes, DDR5 RAM is featured within the latest laptops built using Intel’s Alder Lake 12th generation processors. It’s also expected that DDR5 RAM will be featured within laptops powered by AMD’s Rembrandt processors.</p>\n\n<p>Unlike most desktop PCs, which allow you to customize your choice of gaming RAM between DDR4 and DDR5, it looks likely that laptop users won’t have such flexibility.</p>\n\n<p>Most high-performance laptops will feature DDR5 as a matter of course, which should ensure that the latest laptops can handle the demands of most gamers on the go.</p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img alt=\"Personalized laptops are more common than ever before\" src=\"https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2020/10/21/18/07/laptop-5673901_960_720.jpg\" /></p>\n\n<h3>Is DDR5 RAM good for gaming?</h3>\n\n<p>When it comes to benchmarks, many <a href=\"/en/games/platform/pc-games/\">PC</a> and <a href=\"/en/games/platform/mac-games/\">Mac</a> games have been road tested using both DDR4 and DDR5 RAM in a bid to determine the performance improvements with the latest generation of gaming memory.</p>\n\n<p><a href=\"https://www.techspot.com/review/2387-ddr4-vs-ddr5/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">It was found</a> that performance improvement on games like <a href=\"https://www.ign.com/games/assassins-creed-valhalla\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Assassin’s Creed Valhalla</a> was between 13%-15% <em>better</em> with the DDR5, while the average frame rate at 1080p was up as high as 137 frames per second, suggesting that DDR5 is <em>the best</em> RAM for gaming.</p>\n\n<h2>How does DDR5 RAM compare with DDR4 RAM?</h2>\n\n<p>The difference between DDR5 RAM and its predecessor can be measured in clock rate and data rate. To measure the data rate of RAM, this is often displayed in Megatransfers per second (MT/s).</p>\n\n<p>When it comes to DDR4, typical data rates range from 1,600 MT/s through to 3,200 MT/s. In addition, clock rates for DDR4 memory weigh in between 800 MT/s and 1,600 MT/s.</p>\n\n<p>Although overclocking can sometimes give these numbers a nudge in the right direction.</p>\n\n<p>By contrast, its successor posts improved data rates in the range of 4,800 MT/s to 8,400 MT/s. Meanwhile its clock rates build upon the highest possible rates of DDR4, ranging from 1,600 MT/s through to an impressive 4,800 MT/s.</p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img alt=\"Is DDR 5 necessarily fastest?\" src=\"https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2015/02/28/07/22/speedometer-653246_960_720.jpg\" /></p>\n\n<p>Another big difference between the fourth and fifth iteration of PC memory is their maximum die density. Dies are the integrated circuit modules within an individual stick of RAM.</p>\n\n<p>The maximum density of DDR4 dies is 16Gb, but its successor has managed to achieve a four-fold improvement in density to 64Gb.</p>\n\n<p>Although it’s said that the data width of both RAM options is similar, the fifth-generation release boasts improved channel architecture. Each stick of RAM contains two channels rather than one within a stick of DDR4.</p>\n\n<p>This means your desktop’s CPU can access the same stick of RAM twice, doubling up on your memory’s burst length and burst chop.</p>\n\n<p>The management of DDR4 RAM’s power is overseen by the motherboard. Its successor manages its own power with a power management integrated circuit (PMIC) fitted within each stick of DDR5.</p>\n\n<p>The theory behind the use of a PMIC is to ensure optimal use of power. In addition, DDR5 sticks are designed to operate at a reduced voltage than its predecessor.</p>\n\n<p>Although it’s only a modest drop from 1.2V to 1.1V, this difference will be most felt on smaller devices.</p>\n\n<h2>The problem with DDR5</h2>\n\n<p>The biggest issue with DDR5 RAM right now is its <em>availability and price.</em> A shortage of stock means that very few retailers have the next generation of RAM on their shelves.</p>\n\n<p>On the rare occasions that it is available to buy on or offline, it’s very expensive. If you have the budget to afford to be an early adopter of this technology, then by all means go ahead, but many would recommend that you hold fire and wait until the supply and price drops in tandem.</p>\n\n<p>It's also worth noting that upgrading your RAM from DDR4 to its successor may not be as straightforward as purchasing new RAM sticks.</p>\n\n<h2>DDR5 in a nutshell</h2>\n\n<p>For DDR5 to be compatible with the desktops of today, you’ll need to invest in a new motherboard and CPU too. A new power supply may also need to be factored into the equation to accommodate all of the above enhancements.</p>\n\n<p>Although DDR5 RAM will certainly set the new standard for high-performance gaming, it may be another year or two until we truly see it reach the mainstream gaming community.</p>\n","date":"4/13/2022"},"images":{"preview":{"alt":"Finding the best DDR RAM for your needs takes some research","href":"//cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/old/blog/en/2014/06/Why-You-Should-Work-Together-In-MMOs.jpg"},"authorAvatar":{"href":"//cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/portal/common/avatars/default_avatar.jpg","sizes":[]}},"template_options":{"compositeId":"14749"}},{"links":{"link":"/en/blog/npc-non-player-character/"},"strings":{"title":"NPC (Non-Player Character)","category":"Insights","author":"PLARIUM STAFF","readTime":"300000","description":"<p>A non-player character (NPC) is a term originally coined by players of table-based role-playing games, describing in-game characters overseen by the \"gamemaster\" as opposed to active players.</p>\n\n<p>In video gaming terms, an NPC is a character controlled by the game’s AI, with the developers programming each NPC to feature a selection of in-game behaviors to create their personality and enhance the storyline of the game.</p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">{{banner:default}}</p>\n\n<h2>How Do NPCs Affect Your Favorite Games?</h2>\n\n<p>A non-playable character differs from CPUs, which are designed to be in-game characters programmed to think and act like a human.</p>\n\n<p>NPCs can either be integral characters or fringe characters populated to add depth to open-world environments, and are most commonly featured in multiplayer games.</p>\n\n<p>If there’s only one human player involved, the computer will populate the game with multiple CPUs that are programmed to make dynamic moves based on the computer’s \"brain\".</p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img alt=\"Even if oftentimes overlooked, NPCs are EVERYWHERE!\" src=\"https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2016/10/13/00/22/illustration-1736462_960_720.png\" /></p>\n\n<p>While CPUs can think and make split decisions in-game, the behavior of an NPC is almost always scripted. The actions of an NPC are often activated by human-controlled characters based on their actions or dialogue.</p>\n\n<p>Although in some <a href=\"/en/games/platform/html5-games/\">HTML5 games</a> and <a href=\"/en/games/platform/flash-games/\">Flash games</a> like massively multiplayer online role-playing games (<a href=\"/en/games/genre/mmorpg-games/\">MMORPGs</a>) you can find <em>unscripted</em> NPCs, which operate as avatars managed in-house by the game’s developers.</p>\n\n<h2>The Top 10 Most Famous NPCs in Gaming History</h2>\n\n<p>Although some NPCs are little more than background fodder, several have gone on to steal the limelight and cement themselves as icons in the gaming community.</p>\n\n<p>Below, we shine a spotlight on ten legendary NPCs to have graced our screens through the decades:</p>\n\n<h3>1. Cave Johnson (Portal 2)</h3>\n\n<p>Cave Johnson is undoubtedly the most engaging NPC within the Portal franchise.</p>\n\n<p>Characterized as the ex-CEO of Aperture Science who let the power get to his head before dying in a tragic accident, Johnson’s dialog – expertly overseen by J. K. Simmons – is witty and engaging, with pre-recorded messages that bring out his personality in spades.</p>\n\n<h3>2. HK-47 (Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic)</h3>\n\n<p>HK-47 is a big call to include on this list. The main reason is that you have to control it amid a combat mission.</p>\n\n<p>Nevertheless, HK-47 is an NPC that you quickly engage with throughout many aspects of KOTOR. HK-47 has a comically basic moral compass.</p>\n\n<p>In fact, he views every person as a “meatbag” and believes physical confrontation is the easiest way to settle any dispute.</p>\n\n<h3>3. Sans (Undertale)</h3>\n\n<p>Undertale is a game teeming with memorable NPCs, but if you had to make us choose, Sans would stand out at the top of the pile.</p>\n\n<p>This creepy yet equally smiley skeleton embodies everything that’s great about this title. At times, he may seem like a rather futile addition, but he also is a timely reminder not to take this game too seriously.</p>\n\n<h3>4. Dogmeat (Fallout)</h3>\n\n<p>The Fallout series is teeming with excellent NPCs, but Dogmeat stands out from the crowd as the pinnacle.</p>\n\n<p>This canine companion is one of your most regular sights and sounds on your adventures across the Fallout universe.</p>\n\n<p>Dogmeat will follow you around wherever you go, helping to make the barren wasteland a little less lonely.</p>\n\n<h3>5. Cortana (Halo)</h3>\n\n<p>Cortana is a fiercely strong personality in her own right, but Halo just wouldn’t be the same without this NPC.</p>\n\n<p>Consider Cortana as the voice of reason and knowledge to guide you along your way.</p>\n\n<p>Many NPCs of this nature have been a source of frustration among gamers in years gone by, but Cortana is an invaluable addition to this franchise.</p>\n\n<h3>6. Elizabeth (BioShock Infinite)</h3>\n\n<p>BioShock Infinite may have got plenty of things wrong, but one thing that most gamers are united on is the success of NPC companion Elizabeth.</p>\n\n<p>Elizabeth is anything but a millstone around your neck. She’s flexible and capable, with a host of unique attributes to get you out of tight situations.</p>\n\n<h3>7. The Merchant (Resident Evil 4)</h3>\n\n<p>Upon our travels in Resident Evil 4, we lost count of the number of times that the merchant would rock up on-screen to save us from the villagers, always greeting us with \"What are you buying?\".</p>\n\n<p>If you needed someone to sell you a vast array of weapons, upgrades, or healing items, he was the man to contact.</p>\n\n<h3>8. “Joker” (Mass Effect Trilogy)</h3>\n\n<p>Jeff “Joker” Moreau is up there as one of the best NPCs of all time, not just in the Mass Effect series.</p>\n\n<p>He stands head and shoulders above the rest of the Alliance fleet as one of the finest pilots, but aside from his attributes in the skies, he happens to be a hilarious personality to boot.</p>\n\n<p>Not surprising considering <a href=\"https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001293/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Seth Green</a> voiced him!</p>\n\n<h3>9. “Otacon” (Metal Gear Solid)</h3>\n\n<p>Hal “Otacon” Emmerich is a nerdy scientist, but surprisingly became one of the most recognizable figures in the Metal Gear Solid franchise.</p>\n\n<p>Despite showcasing his vulnerability by wetting himself on your first in-game meeting, Otacon gradually grows a pair as the franchise evolves, going above and beyond the call of duty to assist you.</p>\n\n<h3>10. Tom Nook (Animal Crossing)</h3>\n\n<p>Despite being an NPC, Tom Nook plays a key role in all aspects of Animal Crossing games. He operates the village store and is the go-to character to visit if you need funds to expand your adventure.</p>\n\n<p>Nook – known as Tanukichi in Japan – almost acts as the gatekeeper of the game, making sure that players progress at the right time.</p>\n\n<h2>The NPC Meme</h2>\n\n<p>In the autumn of 2018, the term NPC received further attention when it was coined as a <em>derogatory</em> meme. The meme was shared with the question “Are you an NPC?”.</p>\n\n<p>In essence, the meme was suggesting that any person labeled an NPC was devoid of being able to think for themselves and was simply happy to follow the crowd.</p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/HwcNLGiKVEc\" title=\"YouTube video player\" width=\"560\"></iframe></p>\n\n<p>It’s even become an insult thrown around by gamers at those deemed to lack in-game intelligence to prevail (arguably most notable in games <a href=\"/en/blog/dnd-classes/\">such as D&D</a> where players <em>must</em> be active).</p>\n\n<p>Nevertheless, an NPC remains integral to the dynamics of so many of the latest titles, adding a layer of authenticity that makes these virtual worlds more immersive than ever before.</p>\n","date":"4/12/2022"},"images":{"preview":{"alt":"NPCs has become synonymous with mindlessness in gaming","href":"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2019/week_7/13.png"},"authorAvatar":{"href":"//cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/portal/common/avatars/default_avatar.jpg","sizes":[]}},"template_options":{"compositeId":"14743"}},{"links":{"link":"/en/blog/egx-eurogame-expo/"},"strings":{"title":"What is EGX?

Today, anyone that’s anyone in the business will attend EGX.</p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">{{banner:default}}</p>\n\n<p>From developers previewing their latest creations to GaaS technology providers touting their products to businesses, EGX is a real mix of interests and offerings. Then, of course, you’ve got the fans.</p>\n\n<p>EGX, like all gaming expos, is a chance for consumers to get the inside track of the industry. This guide is intended to give the lowdown on the Eurogame Expo, its origins, and what’s in store at future events.</p>\n\n<p>You can also find out what’s coming up at the next EGX. So, if you’re ready to get into gaming’s top trade show, scroll down for more.</p>\n\n<h2>What is EGX?</h2>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img alt=\"EGX is an event any gamer should try to experience for themselves! \" src=\"https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2021/09/07/07/11/game-console-6603120_960_720.jpg\" /></p>\n\n<p>EGX is an acronym made from the phrase “Eurogame Expo”, which is a trade show within the gaming industry.  The first Eurogame Expo took place in 2008 as part of the London Games Festival.</p>\n\n<p>It was held over two days in October at the Old Truman Brewery and was used as a showcase for the latest <a href=\"/en/blog/christmas-video-games/\">Christmas releases</a>, including <a href=\"/en/games/genre/rpg-games/\">RPGs</a>, <a href=\"/en/games/genre/mmo-games/\">MMOs</a>, and <a href=\"/en/games/genre/castle-games/\">castle games</a>. <strong>4,000</strong> people attended the inaugural Eurogamer Expo, and, since then, it’s gone from strength to strength.</p>\n\n<p>Demand for tickets in 2010 saw the expo held at Earl’s Court in London for five years before various spinoff events were launched.</p>\n\n<p>By 2013, two distinct events were operating under the Eurogamer banner: Eurogamer London and Rezzed.</p>\n\n<p>They were subsequently renamed <a href=\"https://www.egx.net/london/en-gb.html\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">EGX London</a> and <a href=\"https://www.egx.net/birmingham/en-gb.html\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">EGX Birmingham</a>.</p>\n\n<p>As well as changing names and traveling to new venues, including the Birmingham NEC and STATION-Berlin, the variety of events taking place at EGX has increased over the years.</p>\n\n<p>Today, these expos not only feature game previews, but details from industry insiders and celebrities, competitions, meet-and-greets, eSports tournaments, and interactive experiences.</p>\n\n<p>Put simply, if you’re a fan of gaming, EGX offers insights and access like few other expos.</p>\n\n<h3>Who Started the Eurogame Expo?</h3>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img alt=\"EGX has very humble beginnings before it blew up to its current state and stature\" src=\"https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2016/09/17/21/47/audience-1677028_960_720.jpg\" /></p>\n\n<p>EGX was started by the Gamer Network, which is a company that owns the video game news and review site, <a href=\"https://www.eurogamer.net/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Eurogamer</a>.</p>\n\n<p>This website was launched in 1999 by three prominent members of the gaming community, John \"Gestalt\" Bye, Patrick \"Gandhi\" Stokes, and Rupert Loman.</p>\n\n<p>Between them, Bye, Stokes, and Loman carved out a reputation for offering playful but insightful video game articles.</p>\n\n<p>They parlayed this success into an expo that’s gone on to become a landmark event on the gaming calendar.</p>\n\n<h3>Where is the EGX Expo?</h3>\n\n<p>EGX is primarily held in the UK. The first event was held in London, and this remains the company’s most popular destination.</p>\n\n<p>Brighton and Birmingham have also played host to EGX events, as has STATION-Berlin. 2020 saw the event take place online due to COVID-19, but it returned in 2021 with <strong>two</strong> events in London.</p>\n\n<p>The next EGX Expo will take place in September 2022 at London’s ExCel Arena.</p>\n\n<h2>EGX Expo Highlights: What Gaming Fans Can Expect</h2>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/hDTDwAEybxY\" title=\"YouTube video player\" width=\"560\"></iframe></p>\n\n<p>Every EGX event is different, but there are some highlights that fans have come to expect.</p>\n\n<p>In fact, it’s the organizers’ commitment to quality and desire to offer something more that allows the expo to attract more than <strong>75,000 visitors over the course of four days</strong>.</p>\n\n<h4>Some of the top things to do at EGX are:</h4>\n\n<p><strong>Game Previews:</strong> From PC and console hits to iPhone games, EGX is all about developers showing off their wares and gamers getting a sneak peek at what the next generation of products will offer.</p>\n\n<p><strong>Expert Panels:</strong> Gaming fans can listen to talks and Q&A sessions with some of the industry’s leading figures. Previous panels have featured members of the British Esports Association and the content creators behind <a href=\"/en/blog/football-video-games/\">games such as Football Manager</a>.</p>\n\n<p><strong>Exhibitor Booths: </strong>As well as game previews, prominent figures from the gaming industry, including hardware companies, developers, and pro gamers, host booths at the expo.</p>\n\n<p><strong>Playable Games:</strong> Visitors not only get to learn about new games but play them. EGX events also feature <a href=\"/en/blog/esports/\">eSports</a> tournaments.</p>\n\n<p><strong>Merch:</strong> What’s an expo without merchandise? Like all good gatherings in gaming, visitors can get freebies, as well as official merch from many of the industry’s biggest brands.</p>\n\n<h2>The Future of EGX: Battling Back After COVID</h2>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img alt=\"COVID-19 affected everyone, EGX events were no exception\" src=\"https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2020/12/13/17/24/people-5828891_960_720.jpg\" /></p>\n\n<p>The COVID-19 pandemic forced the organizers to host EGX online in 2020. The virtual event was run in conjunction with PAX Online and featured a variety of game previews and talks.</p>\n\n<p>Among those offering insights into the industry were Mike Pondsmith, creator of Cyberpunk 2020, and Gearbox Software, the company behind Borderlands 3.</p>\n\n<p>Online viewers were also treated to game walkthroughs and some light-hearted reviews.</p>\n\n<p>EGX 2020 may not have been a vintage year for the expo, but the organizers made the best of a bad situation. They were able to head back out on the road in 2021.</p>\n\n<p>However, due to COVID restrictions, the two expos weren’t as free as they otherwise would have been. That’s why EGX 2022 is set to be <strong>one of the biggest yet</strong>.</p>\n\n<p>With the UK free of all COVID restrictions and life returning to (somewhat) normal, London’s ExCel Arena will be a hive of activity between September 22 and 25.</p>\n\n<p>Virgin Media has been drafted in as 2022’s sponsor and there will be a host of activities over the course of four days. From playable games and panels to merch, the expo is set to be as entertaining as ever.</p>\n","date":"4/11/2022"},"images":{"preview":{"alt":"EGX Eurogamer Expo","href":"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2018/week_27/egx.jpg"},"authorAvatar":{"href":"//cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/portal/common/avatars/default_avatar.jpg","sizes":[]}},"template_options":{"compositeId":"14742"}},{"links":{"link":"/en/blog/top-video-game-characters/"},"strings":{"title":"Who Are the Best Video Game Characters of All Time? ","category":"Insights","author":"PLARIUM STAFF","readTime":"360000","description":"<p>Can you name the top video game characters, <strong>ever</strong>? It’s a tough task, but it’s one we’ve embraced.</p>\n\n<p>So, if you scroll down, you’ll see who we’ve ranked among the top ten video game characters in history!</p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">{{banner:default}}</p>\n\n<p>Who are the best video game characters of all time? That’s not an easy question to answer. There are hundreds of beauties, beasts and non-human heroes.</p>\n\n<p>This holds true across the board. For example, you’ve got popular video game characters from mainstream franchises such as Super Mario and Sonic. At the <a href=\"/en/blog/indie-games/\">other end of the spectrum</a>, you’ve got colorful characters from indie games like Shovel Knight.</p>\n\n<p>Then, if you consider the non-player character, the list of options becomes almost endless. However, although it’s hard to find ten top names, that’s exactly what we’ve done.</p>\n\n<p>You might not fully agree with our list, but the following is a rundown of <strong>iconic </strong>video game characters.</p>\n\n<h2>The Ten Best Video Game Characters in Herstory</h2>\n\n<h3>Pac-Man</h3>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img alt=\"Pacman is high up there with the top video game characters ever created\" src=\"https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2018/03/25/01/51/computer-game-3258455_960_720.jpg\" /></p>\n\n<p>If the white line from Pong or the little green craft in Space Invaders aren’t the original iconic video game characters, Pac-Man has to be. Pac-Man, or Puck Man as he was known in Japan, first appeared on our consoles in 1980.</p>\n\n<p>Since then, this <a href=\"https://en.bandainamcoent.eu/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Namco</a> creation has become a phenomenon worth more than <strong>$14 billion</strong> thanks to the franchise churning out everything from clothes to TV shows.</p>\n\n<h3>Lara Croft</h3>\n\n<p>Of all the fantastic female videogame characters, Lara Croft is the best. Her reputation precedes her, especially as she has a strong presence not just in videogames but also in several movies too.</p>\n\n<p>Tony Gard and the team at Core Design wanted Croft to be the antithesis of traditional female game characters. That’s why she’s intelligent (an archeologist), attractive, tough, and, in the real world, <a href=\"https://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/news/2016/11/tomb-raider-cosplay-gathering-sets-world-record-as-lara-croft-is-honoured-at-pari-449505\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">a record-breaker</a>.</p>\n\n<h3>Agent 47</h3>\n\n<p>It will come as no surprise that the quiet, methodical, but ruthless Agent 47 is of Danish descent. Created by IO Interactive, which calls the land of the Vikings home, Agent 47 is one of those video game characters that stands out simply because he doesn’t stand out.</p>\n\n<p>This contract killer is seemingly emotionless and lives in the shadows. That’s what makes Agent 47 a hit man in gaming and <a href=\"https://www.boxofficemojo.com/release/rl2455340545/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">in movies</a>.</p>\n\n<h3>Sylvanas Windrunner</h3>\n\n<p>Whether you know her as the Dark Lady, the Banshee Queen, or Sylvanas Windrunner, this former Warchief is one of the most unforgettable female game characters in herstory. She first appeared in World of Warcraft 3 back in 2002 and instantly made an impact.</p>\n\n<p>Yes, she’s hellbent on revenge against those who ripped out her soul. However, underneath her vicious exterior, Sylvanas has some real substance and, if you’re <a href=\"/en/games/genre/war-games/\">a fan of war games</a>, she’s a great person to have on your side.</p>\n\n<h3>Sonic</h3>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img alt=\"Sonic is another top video game character that's even come into the world of movies\" src=\"https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2015/09/09/21/16/hat-933427_960_720.jpg\" /></p>\n\n<p>You were either a fan of Mario or Sonic back in the day. Although the two have since linked up in various collaborations, Sonic was Sega’s flag bearer and, as such, a competitor to all other video game characters, including Nintendo’s Mario.</p>\n\n<p>From a purely technical perspective, Sonic definitely had the edge - not just in attitude, but he could also run a lot faster than Mario too.</p>\n\n<h3>Elizabeth (BioShock Infinite)</h3>\n\n<p>Action games are all about <a href=\"/en/games/genre/action-games/\">taking control of a character</a> and overcoming whatever challenges present themselves. However, there are times when a non-player character is just as important as the protagonist. That’s the case in BioShock Infinite.</p>\n\n<p>You might not control Elizabeth, but you have to protect her. What’s different about this non-player character is that she’s self-sufficient. You don’t have to hold her hand all the time. That’s ideal in a game like BioShock Infinite where threats come from every angle.</p>\n\n<h3>Ezio Auditore da Firenze</h3>\n\n<p>The best video game characters evolve over time and have a certain amount of depth. OK, so that’s not always the case; look at Pac-Man. However, in the modern age of gaming, characters need to have substance. Firenze has that.</p>\n\n<p>A main figure in the Assassin’s Creed franchise, this Florentine nobleman looks great, has a cool personality, and can fight. What’s more, you get to see his backstory over the course of four main games, something that gives Firenze much more depth.</p>\n\n<h3>Mario</h3>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img alt=\"When most western gamers think of top video game characters, Super Mario is one of the first to pop to mind\" src=\"https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2016/07/30/21/37/mario-1558062_960_720.jpg\" /></p>\n\n<p>The plumber-turned superhero has evolved from a 2D hit into a 3D icon since his first appearance in <a href=\"https://www.arcade-museum.com/game_detail.php?game_id=7610\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Donkey Kong</a> in 1981.</p>\n\n<p>Created by Shigeru Miyamoto, with help from artists Yoichi Kotabe and Shigehisa Nakaue, Mario is easily one of the best video game characters of all time.</p>\n\n<p>As well as the ability to jump like an athlete, this squat plumber became a hit because, for all intents and purposes, he was a <strong>normal </strong>guy. If Mario can be a hero, so can we.</p>\n\n<h3>Crash Bandicoot</h3>\n\n<p>Developed exclusively for PlayStation by Naughty Dog, Crash Bandicoot was and still is one of the most recognizable video game characters of all time. OK, so he doesn’t have the depth of Firenze or the skills of Lara Croft.</p>\n\n<p>However, if you want a humanlike bandicoot that’s fun and a little bit crazy, Crash is your man. Indeed, the fact he first appeared in 1996 and is still going strong is a testament to the popularity of Crash Bandicoot.</p>\n\n<h3>Link</h3>\n\n<p>The Legend of Zelda wouldn’t be as legendary without Link. Since this hero was developed by Shigeru Miyamoto, he’s become one of Nintendo’s leading video game characters. Link has appeared in 19 games, including the original 1986 game, the Legend of Zelda.</p>\n\n<p>We love him because he’s diminutive, but brave. He’s also looking to save another iconic female videogame character, Princess Zelda.</p>\n\n<p>In fact, such is Link’s charm that Guinness Book of Record recognized him as the second-best video game character of all time after Mario, and the most critically acclaimed.</p>\n\n<h2>Best of the Rest: More Fantastic Videogame Characters</h2>\n\n<p>Below is a list of fantastic video game characters that didn’t quite make it into our top ten. That’s not because we don’t love them, it’s simply because there are too many icons to choose from.</p>\n\n<p>So, here, listed without comment, are a few more game characters that have stood the test of time:</p>\n\n<ul>\n\t<li>Rayman from Rayman</li>\n\t<li>Master Chief Petty Officer John-117 from Halo</li>\n\t<li>Kratos from God of War</li>\n\t<li>Solid Snake from Metal Gear Solid</li>\n\t<li>Chun-Li from Street Fighter</li>\n\t<li>Donkey Kong from Donkey Kong</li>\n\t<li>Fox McCloud from Star Fox</li>\n\t<li>Mona Sax from Max Payne</li>\n\t<li>Gordon Freeman from Half-Life</li>\n\t<li>Princess Peach Toadstool from Super Mario</li>\n</ul>\n\n<h2>Video Game Characters that Have Shaped the Industry</h2>\n\n<p>So, there you have it, that’s the top ten video game characters of all time, as well as some bonus entries. Of course, we know there will be some debate and probably a few names you’d like to swap. That’s the beauty of gaming.</p>\n\n<p>Everyone has characters they love more than others. However, what’s not in doubt is the fact our list is full of icons that have stood the test of time and shaped the gaming world.</p>\n","date":"4/7/2022"},"images":{"preview":{"alt":"Who Are the Best Video Game Characters of All Time?

It is the most popular spectator sport throughout America, ahead of the country’s other “major league” sports, namely basketball, baseball, ice hockey, and soccer.</p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">{{banner:default}}</p>\n\n<p>The NFL is the <a href=\"https://bleacherreport.com/articles/11481-why-the-nfl-is-the-most-popular-sport-in-america\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">pinnacle of American Football</a>, with tens of thousands of college football students battling to make the grade each year.</p>\n\n<p>The ambition for every NFL franchise at the start of the season is to reach the postseason stage and compete for the <a href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vince_Lombardi_Trophy\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Lombardi Trophy</a> by reaching the Super Bowl. This is one of the biggest sporting occasions on the planet, watched by a global audience.</p>\n\n<p>It’s no surprise that the Super Bowl has inspired many video game developers to design and publish authentic Super Bowl games that demonstrate the effort and skill that goes into an NFL season.</p>\n\n<h2>Super Bowl Games History</h2>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/MWOQJdE8Sd0\" title=\"YouTube video player\" width=\"560\"></iframe></p>\n\n<p>The first example of Super Bowl games on home games consoles was the Tecmo Super Bowl game, published in December 1991. It was the first of many Super Bowl games to be fully licensed by the <a href=\"https://www.nfl.com/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">NFL (National Football League)</a> and the <a href=\"https://nflpa.com/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">NFL Players Association</a>.</p>\n\n<p>In doing so, Tecmo Super Bowl was permitted to use official NFL team names and player names. Other Super Bowl games released prior to Tecmo Super Bowl were unable to use real player and team names simultaneously, which hampered their authenticity.</p>\n\n<p>The original Tecmo Super Bowl was published for the NES originally and latterly the Super NES, Sega Genesis, and the Sony PlayStation 1.</p>\n\n<p>The game achieved cult status among gridiron fans, with a vibrant community of “mods” that would edit the game at the start of each season to ensure updated rosters were available to gamers.</p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/x2FVk3qIHiY\" title=\"YouTube video player\" width=\"560\"></iframe></p>\n\n<p>Prior to Tecmo Super Bowl, the most popular Super Bowl games were the John Madden Football series. Originally published on the Apple II, it was later ported to MS-DOS and the Commodore 64.</p>\n\n<p>The initial series lacked season play, which hampered its authenticity somewhat. When you think of how many games in an NFL season including the Super Bowl, the absence of the season play failed to get across just how grueling the regular and postseason is.</p>\n\n<p>It wasn’t until the partnership with EA Tiburon for EA Sports in 1994 that the Madden NFL franchise we know today truly came to light.</p>\n\n<h2>The Rise of Madden NFL</h2>\n\n<p>Madden NFL was established in 1993 after EA Sports secured the licensing rights to include NFL players and teams in each of its annual releases.</p>\n\n<p>Within three years it had shifted over eight million units, becoming not only one of the best-selling Super Bowl games, but one of the most popular titles in the sports genre.</p>\n\n<p>The 1998 version saw EA incorporate a “Franchise Mode”, whereby players could assume the role of a franchise’s general manager, trading players and getting involved in the postseason NFL Draft.</p>\n\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">The best one yet…<br />\n<br />\nTag your <a href=\"https://twitter.com/hashtag/Madden22?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Madden22</a> rival & their persona 🤣 <a href=\"https://t.co/AcoS4PHokI\">pic.twitter.com/AcoS4PHokI</a></p>\n— Madden Championship Series (@MaddenLeagueOps) <a href=\"https://twitter.com/MaddenLeagueOps/status/1510684310575136773?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 3, 2022</a></blockquote>\n\n<h3>Madden22 trending on Twitter</h3>\n<script async src=\"https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"></script>\n\n<p>Feature additions to future Madden NFL releases include the “Madden Challenge”, where gridiron fans can travel back in time to change the course of history in some of the most iconic games of all time.</p>\n\n<p>“Superstar Mode” also gave players the chance to take control of one rookie hopeful and lead them to glory in Super Bowl games throughout their career.</p>\n\n<h2>Alternative List of Super Bowl Games</h2>\n\n<p>Although Madden NFL is considered the most successful of all the NFL video games franchises, there are many other video game developers that have dabbled with publishing fun Super Bowl games for gridiron fans to enjoy.</p>\n\n<p>Many of which ended up being one-off efforts that failed to knock Madden NFL off its perch as “top dog” in the NFL gaming stakes.</p>\n\n<ul>\n\t<li>\n\t<h3>ESPN NFL 2K5</h3>\n\t</li>\n</ul>\n\n<p>Many NFL video games experts believe that ESPN NFL 2K5 was one of the finest console-based Super Bowl games in history. It was the sixth – and final – version of ESPN NFL, released on the Microsoft Xbox and the Sony PlayStation 2. ESPN NFL benefitted from official NFL licensing, with impressive player likenesses and immersive ESPN broadcasters and analysts featured. It was also available at less than half the price of its Madden NFL competitor. Despite the popularity of its tight, responsive controls and player moves, and visuals, ESPN NFL was ditched when the NFL signed a long-term arrangement with Electronic Arts (EA), resulting in the end for Sega-published gridiron titles.</p>\n\n<ul>\n\t<li>\n\t<h3>NFL GameDay</h3>\n\t</li>\n</ul>\n\n<p>In November 1995, Sony Interactive took the plunge to develop and publish its own NFL video game. NFL GameDay was aimed at providing a credible challenge to the Madden NFL franchise, by utilizing motion capture animations to add a new dimension to Super Bowl games on the PlayStation 1. GameDay was briefly the best-selling PlayStation 1 game of all-time prior to the release of Resident Evil. The accuracy in terms of stadia, team jerseys, and playbooks set GameDay apart, along with its authentic AI gameplay.</p>\n\n<ul>\n\t<li>\n\t<h3>NFL Street</h3>\n\t</li>\n</ul>\n\n<p>EA Sports’ FIFA Street proved to be a fascinating and popular alternative to the in-depth nature of its FIFA franchise, bringing informal “street” soccer to our video game consoles. EA Sports’ attempts to replicate this success with a smaller 7-v-7 NFL Street game failed in too many ways. Although it appeals to entry-level gridiron fans, enthusiasts of Super Bowl games quickly grew bored of the lack of depth once NFL Street’s stylistic features were mastered.</p>\n\n<ul>\n\t<li>\n\t<h3>NFL Blitz</h3>\n\t</li>\n</ul>\n\n<p>NFL Blitz was a partnership between EA Sports and Midway Games, the masterminds of arcade games and <a href=\"/en/games/genre/strategy-games/\">strategy games</a> from yesteryear. What initially began as an arcade game in the late 1990s was quickly ported onto home consoles. NFL Blitz was the antithesis of Madden NFL. It was designed to be over-the-top and extravagant, just like Midway’s successful NBA Jam franchise. However, the move to next-generation consoles like the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 saw gridiron fans crave authenticity, with NFL Blitz cast aside for Madden’s licensed and immersive Super Bowl games.</p>\n\n<p>Today, you can find the best Super Bowl games like Madden NFL on mobile devices, as well as the latest consoles. Some <a href=\"/en/blog/football-video-games/\">Super Bowl and Football games</a> are even considered among the best <a href=\"/en/blog/best-ios-games/\">iOS games of 2022</a>, along with other immersive genres <a href=\"/en/games/genre/war-games/\">like war games</a> that offer similar all-action gameplay.</p>\n","date":"4/6/2022"},"images":{"preview":{"alt":"Immerse yourself in Super Bowl games!","href":"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2017/week_35/toxicity-in-mmo-troll.jpg"},"authorAvatar":{"href":"//cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/portal/common/avatars/default_avatar.jpg","sizes":[]}},"template_options":{"compositeId":"14740"}},{"links":{"link":"/en/blog/space-games/"},"strings":{"title":"The Top Space Games to Play & What Makes Them the Best","category":"Insights","author":"PLARIUM STAFF","readTime":"360000","description":"<p>Calling all budding space conquerors: If exploring new planets or saving planet Earth from alien invasion lights your fire, read on as we explore the top space video games to savour on desktop, console, or mobile!</p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">{{banner:default}}</p>\n\n<p>Space games have been some of the best-selling video game franchises since the 1970s, and continue being some of the <a href=\"/en/games/\">most loved video games</a> around since then.</p>\n\n<p>Developers have long been passionate about showcasing what <a href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_Invaders\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">the galaxy looks like</a> beyond the shores of Mother Earth.</p>\n\n<p>Within this article, we’re boldly going where few have gone before to list the leading space games you can enjoy on any device right now. You might be surprised to find that some of the top space video games <em>aren’t </em>attached to successful global franchises.</p>\n\n<p>Instead, these specific outer space games rely heavily on storyline and game mechanics to cement themselves as one of the must-play titles in the space gaming genre.</p>\n\n<h2 id=\"what-makes-the-best-space-video-games?\">What Makes the Best Space Video Games?</h2>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/hEdzv7D4CbQ\" title=\"YouTube video player\" width=\"560\"></iframe></p>\n\n<p>One of the keys to successful space games on desktop or console is the ability to immerse yourself in new intergalactic environments.</p>\n\n<p>Outer space is an uncertain yet engaging place for people on Earth and gamers have the unique opportunity to transport themselves into other-worldly scenarios and settings to battle aliens or conquer untapped worlds.</p>\n\n<p>Given the remote nature of outer space, many gamers that enjoy space games enjoy that feeling of detachment – removed from all sense of reality. They enjoy the feeling of loneliness as they battle for survival on infested spaceships and lands.</p>\n\n<p>In a nutshell, the leading outer space games shake you to your core, and remove you from everyday life, if only for an hour or two.</p>\n\n<h2 id=\"the-parent-genres-involved-in-the-space-games-genre\">The Parent Genres Involved in the Space Games Genre</h2>\n\n<p>When it comes to the essence of the leading space games, there are multiple parent gaming genres involved in establishing “space” as such an encapsulating gaming subgenre.</p>\n\n<h3 id=\"space-shooting-games\">Space Shooting Games</h3>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/DJmNIeEOHwA\" title=\"YouTube video player\" width=\"560\"></iframe></p>\n\n<p>The sci-fi gaming subgenre has taken many elements from the <a href=\"/en/games/genre/shooting-games/\">shooter</a> parent gaming genre.</p>\n\n<p>Instead of the shooting action taking place on barren military battlegrounds or on the mean streets of modern-day suburbia, you can find yourself well beyond Earth’s atmosphere shooting at spaceships, aliens and other outer space life forms.</p>\n\n<p>All of which demand you to shoot to survive, which leads us neatly onto our next parent genre.</p>\n\n<h3 id=\"space-survival-games\">Space Survival Games</h3>\n\n<p>There are many space-themed titles that create that sense of loneliness and isolation. You’re often pitched in lightyears away from Earth, with your life on the line.</p>\n\n<p><a href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alien:_Isolation\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Alien: Isolation</a> is a prime example of a recent title with <a href=\"/en/games/genre/survival-games/\">distinct survival games characteristics</a>, as you battle to avoid the clutches of a seemingly unstoppable xenomorph.</p>\n\n<h3 id=\"space-action-games\">Space Action Games</h3>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/7YEUwIyam6w\" title=\"YouTube video player\" width=\"560\"></iframe></p>\n\n<p>The action parent genre is often characterized by gamers taking control of a central protagonist or avatar, and there are plenty of these in the latest space games.</p>\n\n<p>It’s often a battle of wills and wits to collect tools, weapons and other items and combine them with your impeccable hand-eye coordination to overcome intergalactic enemies.</p>\n\n<h3 id=\"space-adventure-games\">Space Adventure Games</h3>\n\n<p>Exploring the unknown is what underpins the gameplay of the best space games PC-based or otherwise.</p>\n\n<p>As with action games, adventure games also typically follow the trails of an in-game protagonist, with the narrative of many leading space-themed titles powered by a protagonist’s need to problem-solve or seek out new outer space environments.</p>\n\n<h2 id=\"the-7-best-space-games-on-the-planet-today\">The 7 Best Space Games on the Planet Today</h2>\n\n<p>Whichever space game subgenre gets your heart pounding deep within your spacesuit, there’s sure to be a title that ticks your boxes. Below, we explore seven of the games most enjoyed by space lovers across planet Earth in 2022:</p>\n\n<ol>\n\t<li>Alien: Isolation\n\t<p>Despite not being a new game, and having earlier said in this article that most of the leading space games don’t need to lean heavily on the marketing power of a franchise, Alien: Isolation stands out as a fine game in its own right.</p>\n\n\t<p>Fusing terrifying sound effects and bleak environments, this is one of the jumpiest space-themed video game titles you’ll see this year.</p>\n\t</li>\n\t<li>Dead Space\n\t<p>Dead Space fits neatly inside the survival horror space subgenre. The narrative of this game is based on your protagonist being trapped inside a railway station. Unfortunately for you, you’re by no means alone.</p>\n\n\t<p>Flesh-eating creatures lurk behind every corner. Mining lasers are your friend here to survive. The over-the-shoulder visuals take some getting used to, but it all helps to add to the claustrophobia of the concept.</p>\n\t</li>\n\t<li>Star Trek Online\n\t<p>It’s taken some time but Star Trek Online has finally got the attention and plaudits it deserves. It’s now one of the leading <a href=\"/en/blog/space-mmo/\">space-themed MMORPGs</a>, with space battles providing open team combat around Starfleet Command.</p>\n\n\t<p>Star Trek fans will enjoy a pilgrimage into some of the regular episode missions and the chance to acquire plenty of Star Trek memorabilia due to in-game microtransactions.</p>\n\t</li>\n\t<li>Eve Valkyrie\n\t<p>There are few space-themed titles that offer such an immersive, first-person perspective as Eve Valkyrie.</p>\n\n\t<p>Step foot into the cockpit for an all-action dogfight, steering your spaceship from one gruelling air battle to the next.</p>\n\t</li>\n\t<li>Distant Worlds: Universe\n\t<p>Distant Worlds: Universe is a timeless classic when it comes to space-themed games. It’s more of a strategy space title, which allows you to embark on a mission to build your own intergalactic empire.</p>\n\n\t<p>Even if space wars aren’t your cup of tea, you can leave these battlegrounds in the hands of the sophisticated AI and focus on exploring the universe.</p>\n\t</li>\n\t<li>Elite Dangerous\n\t<p>Fire up the impressive Elite Dangerous and get your hands on your very own spaceship. Explore untapped planets, head out onto their unknown surfaces on your on-board dune buggy to feed your inner explorer.</p>\n\n\t<p>Consider yourself the gatekeeper of the galaxy in this hugely immersive, open-world title.</p>\n\t</li>\n\t<li>Kerbal Space Program\n\t<p>Last but by no means least, the Kerbal Space Program is a fascinating space game, designed with wannabee NASA employees firmly in mind.</p>\n\n\t<p>This title is not so much about exploring outer space and even less so about <a href=\"/en/blog/realistic-games/\">realistic graphics in games</a> typically modelled on space, but more about finding ways to get there in the first place.</p>\n\n\t<p>Think of it as one of the leading space simulation games - allowing you to design your own rockets and vessels with the physics and raw power to get through Earth’s atmosphere and reach the Moon and dock with modular space stations.</p>\n\t</li>\n</ol>\n","date":"4/5/2022"},"images":{"preview":{"alt":"The top outer space games","href":"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2019/june/illustrations/27.png"},"authorAvatar":{"href":"//cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/portal/common/avatars/default_avatar.jpg","sizes":[]}},"template_options":{"compositeId":"14739"}},{"links":{"link":"/en/blog/dreamhack/"},"strings":{"title":"DreamHack Events: eSports and Gaming on a Whole Other Level","category":"Insights","author":"PLARIUM STAFF","readTime":"360000","description":"<p>For eSports and gaming festivals that are of the highest quality, there’s only one production company to turn to: DreamHack.</p>\n\n<p>Anticipation is building for DreamHack 2022, and with 10 events taking place in nine cities, as well as open competitions, it’s set to be another busy year for gaming’s leading production company. To find out why DreamHack does it better than the rest, scroll down.</p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">{{banner:default}}</p>\n\n<p>Of course, if you’re new to the industry or you’re not a massive eSports fan, you might not know what DreamHack is or, more specifically, <em>why </em>its events are so popular.</p>\n\n<p>With this in mind, here’s everything you need to know about the biggest <a href=\"/en/blog/lan-parties/\">LAN parties</a> and gaming events in the world.</p>\n\n<h2 id=\"what-is-dreamhack-and-what-does-it-do?\">What is DreamHack and What Does it Do?</h2>\n\n<p>DreamHack is one of the largest production companies in gaming. Operating under the mantra, “where the gaming community comes to life,” DreamHack is responsible for some of the biggest and best events in the industry.</p>\n\n<p>In fact, this Swedish company was recognized by the <a href=\"https://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/world-records/largest-lan-party\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Guinness Book of Records</a> for hosting the world’s largest LAN party and computer festival. DreamHack also held the record for fastest internet connection at a large-scale gaming event before it was beaten by The Gathering in Norway.</p>\n\n<p>To put it simply, DreamHack is a production company that hosts events where thousands of gamers congregate to play all manner of console and <a href=\"/en/games/platform/pc-games/\">PC games</a>. These events not only offer LAN parties, but expos, actual parties, and activities.</p>\n\n<p>Finally, for those at the elite end of gaming, DreamHack events feature pro eSports tournaments, while the DreamHack Open is a chance for gamers to prove their worth and qualify for the big leagues.</p>\n\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Did anyone watch the <a href=\"https://twitter.com/hashtag/IEM?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#IEM</a> finals this past weekend? 🤩<br />\n<br />\nCan't wait to host the ESL Pro League at our DreamHack festivals this year. <a href=\"https://t.co/Pk7islJv9i\">pic.twitter.com/Pk7islJv9i</a></p>\n— DreamHack (@DreamHack) <a href=\"https://twitter.com/DreamHack/status/1499384574601797636?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 3, 2022</a></blockquote>\n<script async src=\"https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"></script>\n\n<p>Of course, like all success stories, DreamHack had to start from the bottom and work its way up. The company was founded in 1994 and held its first event in Malung, Sweden. Since then, the company has evolved and expanded in a variety of ways.</p>\n\n<p>Fueling this growth was a deal with Modern Times Group. After becoming part of a digital entertainment empire, DreamHack has had the resources to create even more events and forge deals with major names in the industry, such as <a href=\"https://www.epicgames.com/site/en-US/home\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Epic Games</a>.</p>\n\n<p>Today, events like Epic Games DreamHack and the DreamHack Open run in tandem with an international schedule of eSports tournaments. To show you what we mean, here are some of the main reasons DreamHack is a leading name in eSports and gaming.</p>\n\n<h3 id=\"dreamhack-pro-competitions\">DreamHack Pro Competitions</h3>\n\n<p>Every DreamHack event features pro-level gaming tournaments. In fact, they’re the focal point for each stop.</p>\n\n<p>Thanks to the company's links with one of the leading eSports games, CS:GO, many of the world's top Counter-Strike players compete at events such as DreamHack Masters.</p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/B_EEFXL1gZo\" title=\"YouTube video player\" width=\"560\"></iframe></p>\n\n<p>Some names to look out for are: <a href=\"/en/blog/interview-s1mple/\">Oleksandr “s1mple” Kostyliev</a>, Sergei 'Sergiz' Atamanchuk, and Mathieu \"ZywOo\" Herbaut.</p>\n\n<p>The DreamHack Open is an annual series of competitions for aspiring eSports teams. It's part of the <a href=\"http://pro.eslgaming.com/tour/csgo/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">ESL Pro Tour</a> and CS:GO teams can go online and use the DreamHack register button enter.</p>\n\n<p>The winners of these Challenger level tournaments earn points that help them move towards the EPT Masters Championship. Put simply, these tournaments take place online and serve as feeders for the major leagues.</p>\n\n<h3 id=\"epic-games-dreamhack\">Epic Games DreamHack</h3>\n\n<p>The Epic Games DreamHack partnership has resulted in a number of interesting gaming events, including the DreamHack Open Featuring Fortnite. DreamHack has long been a place for gamers to test <a href=\"/en/blog/best-mmorpgs-2022/\">MMORPGs of 2022</a> and beyond.</p>\n\n<p>Now, MMO fans can take part in community-focused Fortnite tournaments online thanks to Epic Games and DreamHack. As well as being entertaining, these events have prizepools topping<strong> $250,000.</strong></p>\n\n<h2 id=\"why-are-dreamhack-events-popular?\">Why Are DreamHack Events Popular?</h2>\n\n<p>Every festival is more than a place for people to play games. As we’ve said, there are pro-level tournaments, as well as open events. However, DreamHack also provides the infrastructure for mega-LAN parties.</p>\n\n<p>All visitors have to do is bring their own computer and connect to the network.</p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/Zwb8pQ337L8\" title=\"YouTube video player\" width=\"560\"></iframe></p>\n\n<p>If that’s not enough to get people using the DreamHack register button, these events feature cosplay, exclusive screenings of movies and games, artwork, activities, and live music from bands such as Trivium.</p>\n\n<p>In short, DreamHack events are more than eSports competitions, they’re all-round entertainment experiences.</p>\n\n<h2 id=\"dreamhack-and-esl\">DreamHack and ESL</h2>\n\n<p>Even though DreamHack events aren’t all about gaming, the company’s connection to eSports can’t be understated. As well as giving pro teams a platform to play in front of huge audiences, DreamHack has created a culture.</p>\n\n<p>Today, people not only want to attend DreamHack, they want to play in open events for a chance to become eSports pros.</p>\n\n<p>The look and feel of DreamHack events also can’t be understated. The company spends significant sums of money to ensure the infrastructure powering its LAN parties is second-to-none.</p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/jXmfDp8haVg\" title=\"YouTube video player\" width=\"560\"></iframe></p>\n\n<p>It also invests heavily in extracurricular activities such as booking bands and organizing activities like tabletop tournaments and dodgeball battles.</p>\n\n<p>The aim is to run events that everyone, from hardcore gamers to recreationals who only play <a href=\"/en/games/platform/mobile-games/\">mobile games</a>, love.</p>\n\n<p>This is not only great for those who attend, but eSports in general because DreamHack has raised the profile of gaming and piqued the interests of people outside of the industry. That, in turn, has made eSports much more of a mainstream activity.</p>\n\n<h2 id=\"dreamhack-2022-schedule\">DreamHack 2022 Schedule</h2>\n\n<p>The DreamHack 2021 schedule was something of a break from the norm because it featured online events. However, it's back to a full roster of live action this year.</p>\n\n<p>The DreamHack 2022 schedule is packed with action and, as we move through the year, we'll see a clear progression from the DreamHack 2021 series.</p>\n\n<h4 id=\"dreamhack-2022-events\">DreamHack 2022 Events</h4>\n\n<ul>\n\t<li>DreamHack Dallas: June 3-5</li>\n\t<li>DreamHack Summer (Jönköping, Sweden): July 18-21</li>\n\t<li>DreamHack Valencia: July 1-3</li>\n\t<li>DreamHack Melbourne: September 2-4</li>\n\t<li>DreamHack Rotterdam: October 14-16</li>\n\t<li>DreamHack Hyderabad: October 15-17</li>\n\t<li>DreamHack Atlanta: November 18-20</li>\n\t<li>DreamHack Winter (Jönköping, Sweden): November 24-27</li>\n\t<li>DreamHack Madrid: December 9-11</li>\n</ul>\n\n<p>Anyone interested in attending these events can go online and use the DreamHack register button to buy tickets. Even if you’ve never played an RPG or watched eSports before, they’re a great way to find out what the gaming community is all about and have some fun!</p>\n","date":"4/3/2022"},"images":{"preview":{"alt":"Welcome to
