Hua Xiong is one of few characters in Koei's Dynasty Warriors series who, despite not being a playable character, still has a consistent role in the games. He is most often found guarding one of the gates, usually the Si Shui Gate, during the coalition against Dong Zhuo. In some of the games, a stage event occurs in which Guan Yu kills him. In Dynasty Warriors 4, after the player kills him, a cut scene is triggered where Yuan Shao asks "Hua Xiong has been slain? By whom?" and is answered by the player's character. Also, during the campaign against Dong Zhuo in Destiny of an Emperor, Hua Xiong is the only commander of a compulsory battle other than Dong Zhuo or Lü Bu, where Liu Bei's men fight him for control of Fan Shui Guan (wrong translation of Si Shui Gate). Also, in crossover game Warriors Orochi, wherever Dong Zhuo appears, Hua Xiong is always at his side to protect him.

Famous quotes containing the word modern:
“The complaint ... about modern steel furniture, modern glass houses, modern red bars and modern streamlined trains and cars is that all these objets modernes, while adequate and amusing in themselves, tend to make the people who use them look dated. It is an honest criticism. The human race has done nothing much about changing its own appearance to conform to the form and texture of its appurtenances.”
