Origin allows its users to purchase games via the internet for PC and mobile platforms and then download them with the Origin client.

Another cool option is streaming via TwitchTV, sharing of game library and community integration with networking sites (Facebook, Xbox Live, PlayStation Network, etc.).

Origin also allows its users to browse and purchase games for full price from Electronic Arts' catalogs. Instead of receiving a box, disc, or even an activation code, the purchased software is immediately (and permanently) attached to the user's account and can be downloaded with the corresponding Origin client.

The first game, titled Far Cry, was developed by Crytek and published by Ubisoft in early 2004. The game revolutionized the approach to modern FPS games and received many positive reviews (as well as praise from the gaming community). The original game has been followed by three sequels: Far Cry 2, Far Cry 3, and Far Cry 4 and spawned various spin-offs, most notably Far Cry Instincts and Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon. There was even a Far Cry movie (based loosely on the first game), released in 2008 but it couldn’t match the level of video games. All games in Far Cry franchise are known for their exotic open-world environments (Micronesia, the Himalayas, Africa) and are not tied to each other. The former feature is one of the series’ trademarks and the main reason behind a large number of awards. Every Far Cry game includes a map editing program that allows players to create and share their own unique maps for multiplayer use. Who doesn’t know Far Cry? The game’s beautiful visuals, compelling story, and the giant open world are appreciated around the globe since 2004.

Well, there is one particular title that contributed more than the most to this aspect of video game mechanics. What game are we talking about? Take a wild guess. Gothic is an action RPG franchise, developed and owned by German studio called Piranha Bytes. However, the latest installment in the spin-off series was developed by Spellbound Entertainment. The Gothic games’ setting is a medieval fantasy world, in which humans are losing the war against the orcish armies. The protagonist, a young nameless man, is forced to work his way up, from being a convict in the penal colony to saving the world from the ancient evil. In order to continue the fight against the countless orcs, demons and the undead, our protagonist has to gather much-needed experience, form alliances, and develop into a real hero of Myrtana. The franchise consists of three main games, two large expansions, and an official spinoff, Arcania. This spinoff, Arcania is set in the same universe and shares many aspects with the original Gothic series. Gothic games were extremely successful and, in many ways, groundbreaking. You should definitely give them a chance!Hide
