It was an impossible, infuriating battle that stretched many of WoW’s finest guilds to their breaking point. If the raiders were good and/or lucky, they’d weaken C’Thun for 45 seconds at a time, barely denting his massive health pool. He also spawned tentacles that could make short work of a 40-man raid group if they weren’t handled efficiently. His green eye beam insta-killed anyone caught in it. During the fight, C’Thun periodically swallowed random players and slowly digested them in his stomach. He ate some of WoW’s hardiest guilds for lunch - literally. Blizzard added the Old God to the game in 2006, and at that time he was considered its hardest encounter. This, combined with id Software’s subsequent Doom, essentially created the first-person shooter.Ĭ’Thun, the fantasy genre’s second-most-popular evil eye, is the final boss in World of Warcraft’s Temple of Ahn’Qiraj raid dungeon. Wolfenstein 3D signaled the early ’90s move of video games into ultragore, and while its blocky 3-D graphics look dated 25 years later, at the time its fast, violent Nazi-killing action was unmatched by any other game out there. But with a cry of “Eva, auf wiedersehen!” Hitler eventually goes down in a mess of gore. You’ll need to move to cover faster, as he can still quickly kill you. But this is actually the harder part of the fight - Hitler still somehow has two chain guns and can now move much faster. After dishing out a tremendous amount of damage, you’ll destroy the armored suit. Then try to get close to unload on him, and then find cover before his chain guns open up. To take him out, first focus on killing the Nazi officers in the room with him. Unfortunately, Hitler has acquired a mecha-armor suit with four chain guns, and he doesn’t want to go quietly. In the third and final chapter of Wolfenstein 3D, you are out to kill Hitler himself. A good boss encounter elevates the game it’s in. Most important, however, was how vividly they lingered in our minds. Assembled by a committee of gaming journalists with various tastes, our rank factored in each enemy’s overall difficulty, the novelty of their fight mechanics, and their influence on subsequent games. That goes most for these 100 bosses, who have been providing gamers with shared war stories for more than 30 years. ![]() Bison or Psycho Mantis or Atheon, they’ve all served as finish lines, final examinations, and feats of collaboration. In a medium where individual experiences can now vary greatly - no two people play Minecraft the same way, nor do any two games of PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds even remotely resemble one another - bosses remain a common experience, cultural touchstones for entire generations of games and the people who play them. What this big-bad revival reminds us is that we’re better off with bosses in our gaming lives. And there’s Destiny, a series that brought bosses back in a big way by borrowing ideas from massively multiplayer online games like World of Warcraft, making them nigh-insurmountable challenges that required teamwork from a large group of players. ![]() Runaway sleeper hits like Shovel Knight nakedly emulated and updated 8- and 16-bit sensibilities, where challenging levels were par for the course and boss fights took center stage. Souls and its sequels/spinoffs inspired countless imitators to such an extent that ‘ Souls-like’ is now a genre descriptor. Demon’s Souls had already embraced the opaque design and challenges of classic games, adding names like Ornstein and Smough to the wince-inducing canon of legendary video-game big bads. Then a wave of nostalgia brought the boss back. Open-world and online games flourished, player choice became paramount, and boss fights in games that felt otherwise wide open - like the notoriously underwhelming boss confrontations in otherwise acclaimed games such as Bioshock or Deus Ex: Human Revolution - ended up feeling like dead weight. Bosses were effectively bottlenecks at a time where games were expanding. ”įor much of the 2000s, it seemed as if the concept of the video-game boss was on its last legs. After much deliberation, we have determined that Guitar Hero 3 ’s “Through the Fire and Flames” and Top Gun ’s “Aircraft Carrier” are more Levels than they are Bosses, and we have recategorized them accordingly. ![]() We had to, since FromSoftware games somehow keep getting harder. We originally published this list in 2017, and have updated it to reflect the most recent, cutting edge advancements in boss difficulty. ![]() ![]()
![]() ![]() For atoms, the notation consists of a sequence of atomic subshell labels (e.g. Physicists and chemists use a standard notation to indicate the electron configurations of atoms and molecules. The numbers of electrons that can occupy each shell and each subshell arise from the equations of quantum mechanics, in particular the Pauli exclusion principle, which states that no two electrons in the same atom can have the same values of the four quantum numbers. This gives two electrons in an s subshell, six electrons in a p subshell, ten electrons in a d subshell and fourteen electrons in an f subshell. ![]() The maximum number of electrons that can be placed in a subshell is given by 2(2 l + 1). For example, the 3d subshell has n = 3 and l = 2. The values l = 0, 1, 2, 3 correspond to the s, p, d, and f labels, respectively. ![]() The value of l is in the range from 0 to n − 1. The factor of two arises because the allowed states are doubled due to electron spin-each atomic orbital admits up to two otherwise identical electrons with opposite spin, one with a spin + 1⁄ 2 (usually denoted by an up-arrow) and one with a spin of − 1⁄ 2 (with a down-arrow).Ī subshell is the set of states defined by a common azimuthal quantum number, l, within a shell. For example, the first shell can accommodate 2 electrons, the second shell 8 electrons, the third shell 18 electrons and so on. An atom's nth electron shell can accommodate 2 n 2 electrons. In bulk materials, this same idea helps explain the peculiar properties of lasers and semiconductors.Įlectron configuration was first conceived under the Bohr model of the atom, and it is still common to speak of shells and subshells despite the advances in understanding of the quantum-mechanical nature of electrons.Īn electron shell is the set of allowed states that share the same principal quantum number, n (the number before the letter in the orbital label), that electrons may occupy. This is also useful for describing the chemical bonds that hold atoms together. Knowledge of the electron configuration of different atoms is useful in understanding the structure of the periodic table of elements. Mathematically, configurations are described by Slater determinants or configuration state functions.Īccording to the laws of quantum mechanics, for systems with only one electron, a level of energy is associated with each electron configuration and in certain conditions, electrons are able to move from one configuration to another by the emission or absorption of a quantum of energy, in the form of a photon. For example, the electron configuration of the neon atom is 1s 2 2s 2 2p 6, meaning that the 1s, 2s and 2p subshells are occupied by 2, 2 and 6 electrons respectively.Įlectronic configurations describe each electron as moving independently in an orbital, in an average field created by all other orbitals. For the undiscovered eighth-row elements, mixing of configurations is expected to be very important, and sometimes the result can no longer be well-described by a single configuration.In atomic physics and quantum chemistry, the electron configuration is the distribution of electrons of an atom or molecule (or other physical structure) in atomic or molecular orbitals. In many cases, multiple configurations are within a small range of energies and the irregularities shown below do not necessarily have a clear relation to chemical behaviour. Note that these electron configurations are given for neutral atoms in the gas phase, which are not the same as the electron configurations for the same atoms in chemical environments. However there are numerous exceptions for example the lightest exception is chromium, which would be predicted to have the configuration 1s 2 2s 2 2p 6 3s 2 3p 6 3d 4 4s 2, written as 3d 4 4s 2, but whose actual configuration given in the table below is 3d 5 4s 1. Electron configurations of elements beyond hassium (element 108) have never been measured predictions are used below.Īs an approximate rule, electron configurations are given by the Aufbau principle and the Madelung rule. For each atom the subshells are given first in concise form, then with all subshells written out, followed by the number of electrons per shell. This page shows the electron configurations of the neutral gaseous atoms in their ground states. ![]() ![]() Some are great, some are awful, but the Pebble and Pebble Steel share an extensive catalog of mostly free apps and watch faces, spanning the gamut from the sublime to the ridiculous. No, it doesn't offer the same type of get-up-and-move vibration alerts or features like Jawbone Up's power-nap, and if you switch fitness apps it doesn't carry the steps over, but step counting and sleep tracking add up to a nice bonus you won't get with a traditional watch at this price.Ī quirky and huge collection of apps, many of which are free I've often used it as a replacement for wearing a Shine or a Jawbone Up band in a pinch. The step counts are often over what more accurate fitness bands provide, but the fact that the Pebble can do what it does with major third-party apps is really a big plus. Both sync to their iOS and Android apps, with a bit of occasional coddling. (There's even a swim-tracking app from .) The Misfit app tracks steps and sleep, while the Jawbone Up app only tracks steps. Even better, two already-available apps are from Misfit and Jawbone Up, two major forces in wearable fitness. The Pebble's last firmware update allowed background step tracking, something it couldn't do before: at last, it can be a real pedometer. Sarah Tew/CNETīackground fitness tracking at last, and it works with multiple apps The Misfit app on Pebble tracks steps and sleep automatically. It's just hefty enough to feel substantial, but far, far less bulky than other larger-screened Android Wear and Samsung Gear smartwatches. It's retro-chic, it's classic, it actually gets compliments. ![]() What I like It's a very cool-looking watchĮven three quarters of a year into wearing it, the Pebble Steel still looks great. As a result, the rating has been raised from 3.5 to 4 stars. ![]() It includes comparisons to more recent competitors, hands-on testing of the latest firmware, and consideration of the September 30 price drop. It's a better watch than nearly any other smartwatch, and it's more polished than rival smartwatches that feel more experimental than refined.Įditors' note: This review has been updated since its original publication on January 28, 2014, with additional long-term impressions of the Pebble Steel. If you want a watch that handles basic notifications really well, has a built-in silent alarm clock, is wearable all the time, and has plenty of fun apps to play with, the Pebble Steel wins my vote. But for the here and now, the Pebble Steel stands tall. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Real-time synchronization and saving make collaboration a breeze. Synology Office – Create documents, spreadsheets, and slides in a multi-user environment. Key business and consumer applications that are included with your NAS are: Indeed, although below I have highlighted a number of the key/best applications that are included in your DS1522+ Service with DSM, most of them can be immediately integrated with Synology C2 (with even more being added in 2023 with DSM 7.2). This is a subscription platform, which can only be used with your Synology NAS system (as well as connected with some 3rd party SaaS services, but for those that are moving away from Google/Microsoft/AWS for security reasons, but still want a Cloud+Metal storage network in place, C2 covers pretty much everything. Then there is the increasing development of their 1st party cloud platform, Synology C2, which is slowly integrating into all the applications that are available on your bare metal NAS (allowing you to add a cloud layer of backup, synchronization and access to your data storage setup). If you are an existing user of SaaS and PaaS (Software as a service and Platform as a service) from the likes of Google Workspace and Office 365, knowing that you can synchronize these systems or choose to export away from them onto the Synology services is going to be very appealing. If you want to learn about it, you can read the DSM 7 Full Review HERE.Īs mentioned, the DS1522+ supports pretty much the entirety of the DSM 7.1 applications and services (DSM 7 and DSM 6.2 are still in circulation and still receive regular service and security updates, though the DS1522+ will arrive with DSM 7.1 by default and cannot be rolled back). DSM is currently in version 7.1, but it looks like we will be seeing full release of DSM 7.2 at the end of 2022 or the start of 2023, which will be adding WORM (write Once Read Many) support, Volume scale encryption and numerous improvements to individual applications. In the case of the Synology DS1522+, it supports EVERYTHING that is offered by Synology’s platform. DSM is available with ALL Synology NAS and the depth and abilities of DSM on any NAS are dependent on the hardware architecture of the NAS itself. The DSM interface can be accessed by hundreds of users at the same time (with each user having tailored access, rights and privileges). ![]() These allow management and access to the data on the DS1522+ in very tailored ways, as well as the web browser-based access that has the appearance, intuitive design and responsiveness of a local operating system. DSM has been in continues to be the dominant force in the world of NAS software, providing a massive arrangement of services, applications (first and third-party supported) and a huge number of client applications for desktop, mobile, Windows, macOS and Linux (as well as a bunch of other more home-based tools). However, this does not stop evolving as soon as you get your Synology NAS. #1 – Runs Pretty Much EVERYTHING in Synology DSMĪt Launch, the DS1522+ NAS arrives with the latest version of Synology software, DSM 7.1.

This title is very much just like Road Rash, where players are racing down the streets and having to use different melee weapons, guns, to outright punching or kicking competitors that get near them. With Road Redemption, we received a spiritual successor to that franchise. #7 Road Redemptionĭo you remember the old Road Rash video game series? It was a title that brought out a wacky racing game where you’re barreling down the roads while being able to attack competitor racers as they got near you. There’s even Grand Theft Auto Online which offers some additional mix of motorcycles you can race around the city streets with. Likewise, you will have quite a few different motorcycle vehicles to pick from as well whether it’s purchasing a motorcycle outright or stealing one. The latest installment happens to be Grand Theft Auto V where we got a large Los Santos city to explore. However, all of these games typically feature a nice open-world environment. It’s a criminal-themed game where players are venturing through a narrative of a thug trying to grow his criminal empire or someone looking to break free. Grand Theft Auto is quite the iconic video game franchise and it’s not one that’s based around strictly racing. It’s also perfect for playing with friends. Riders Republic is the perfect game for bike fans who are after something that isn’t quite as serious as other simulation games. Although there are four main sports included in the game (mountain biking, skiing, snowboarding, and wingsuit flying), mountain biking is the star of the show. Developed by the same team as Steep, Riders Republic takes on a range of extreme sports with the most notable being mountain biking. Riders Republic is Ubisoft’s spiritual follow-up to 2016’s winter extreme sports game, Steep. The game’s “Very Positive” recent reviews on Steam are proof of that. MXGP 2021 is guaranteed to give gamers the most authentic Motocross experience in gaming. The game features all of the bikes and teams from the MXGP and MX2 seasons as well as every official track from the 2021 championship. Fans of Motocross need to look no further than this game that has everything Motocross fans are after. MXGP 2021 is the latest in the premier Motocross video game franchise. So if you’re ready to race, put on your helmet, pick up your controller, and let’s go! #10 MXGP 2021 That doesn’t even touch on the multiplayer features, including being able to make custom races and battling with your friends to see who’s the best among you.

They’re tests of skill, and with so many racers on the track, you can’t help but feel energized watching every lap. There’s a reason why motocross and variations of it are so popular. #11 Monster Energy Supercross – The Official Videogame 6 So you could race through some matches with a friend locally. What you might find of interest with this installment is the fact that there is now split-screen multiplayer. You’ll race through the different circuits, manage your team, and make a variety of adjustments to your rig. This game is similar to the past installment but focuses on the 2022 season. Much like our other entry into this list, we have the next iteration of the MotoGP series with MotoGP 22.
