Advanced Wars 2: Black Hole Rising
Advanced Wars 2: Black Hole Rising is the brilliant sequel to the award-winning Advanced Wars where, this time around, the previously failed Black Hole Army returns for a second whooping by yours truly. However, in order for you to give them the whooping they deserve, you'll need to make full use of your brand new ability - Super Commanding Officer Powers, in addition to the usual tactical and strategic gameplay. There are more units than ever for you to command and there are also more maps as well as terrain types to give you the challenge you crave. There are new maps, challenges and Commanding Officers that you can buy using points at the Battlemaps shop too. Interestingly, you can even challenge your friends to a battle and put your skills to the ultimate test.Advanced Wars 2 definitely one-ups the original by adding in a ton of new features including a new multiplayer option, further expanding the game's lifespan by miles. This is certainly a great game to buy if you've got a Nintendo 3DS and friends to play the game with.
XCOM: Enemy Unknown
XCOM: Enemy Unknown puts you in charge of a secret paramilitary organization known as XCOM and as its commander, you'll need to build a functional base, manage your resources, constantly improving your technology and give tactical orders to your team when taking on a global alien invasion. The game is, obviously, part of the award-winning turn-based strategy game franchise, XCOM, which is famous for its incredible action sequences, as well as squad management and turn-based combat systems. The game will also see you as a diplomat of sorts as you'll need to interact and negotiate with various governments during your missions.XCOM: Enemy Unknown is one of the best turn-based strategy game there is (and yes, this means until now). However, the game can be quite difficult especially for newcomers to get into, and to truly appreciate the details and the flawless gameplay mechanics, you might need to put in quite a bit of time into the game. But if you do all of that, you'll be richly rewarded with one of the best gaming experience you'll ever get.
