Games that revolutionised the games industry
Bogdan LashchenkoGaming is not just about video games, it is a very broad concept. It encompasses an incredible number of different games that differ in their features and gameplay. Over the decades, the gaming industry has been revolutionised time and time again, with more and more interesting games appearing on the market, taking advantage of the latest gaming technology of their time and bringing a new and different flavour to the market.
Games have appeared on the market for PCs, game consoles and smart devices alike. Sometimes they are video games, but casino games have also undergone a revolution since the transition to the 21st century. Many of these games are "evergreen", as they are called, and are talked about by players who were not even born when the game was released. These games have become classics that are timeless and will always be very popular in their own right.
Casino games have also revolutionised their field
After the emergence of online casinos, gaming technology took new steps as casino games had to evolve rapidly to appeal to players. Today, there are thousands of different slot games on the market, each one more interesting and attractive than the last. But which games revolutionised casino games? One of them tops the list when it comes to games that have revolutionised casino games, and that is the legendary Starburst slot game from Sweden's NetEnt.
Released in 2013, Starburst has remained on the casino's favourites list for ten years now. The reason for this popularity is the impressive graphics, the thematic soundscape and ultimately the very simple gameplay. The execution of the game has revolutionised online casinos, with such a simple game capturing the hearts of players year after year. Since then, many more varied slots have appeared on the market, but they are not quite able to rise above Starburst. Sometimes it is simplicity and quality of execution that is the key to competing for market supremacy in the slots world.

E-sport rose to great popularity in the 2000s
E-sport has also undergone a revolution, as the sport is now well known among players and spectators alike. Various matches are watched from home and millions of people are waiting for the matches to start. The most revolutionary games have probably been World of Warcraft (WoW) in 2004, League of Legends (LoL) in 2009 and Starcraft in 1998, among others. The games have evolved since their first versions and have been regularly updated and modified.
Today, Finnish players are also known as talented eSports players. Games such as Dota 2 and CS:GO have contributed to taking e-sports to a new level. Today, the best players can earn millions by playing, which shows the great interest in the games. If gaming technology had not enabled high-quality games, e-sports would not have become so popular either. In the case of e-sports, we can expect to see more and more exciting games in the coming years that will revolutionise the world of gaming.
Ghosts of the past that will not be forgotten
There are many different types of video games on the market that have, in time, become very popular and have attracted more and more players to video games. Among these games is Pong, the tennis simulator created by Allan Alcorn. Released in 1972, Pong is also known as the first commercially successful video game and is credited with launching the console industry. By today's standards, Pong is a very simple and low-quality game that doesn't impress with its graphics - but what else can you expect from one of the first legends.
Gamers born in the 1980s were familiar with Pac-Man and Tetris, but Super Mario Bros also took over living rooms as the 1980s progressed. Even today, new generations know these games by name, as their influence on gaming technology has been very influential. Super Mario Bros has also found its way onto new consoles such as the Nintendo Switch. This arcade game was once a force that united home gaming and popular culture. Almost forty years after its release, Mario Bros games and peripherals are still on the market.
As gaming technology continues to evolve, we can expect to see a more diverse gaming experience in the future. Games that are becoming very popular on the market are appearing regularly and now games such as Elden Ring are beginning to take their place as a game that is revolutionising gaming technology.
