Age of War 2 vs Wasteland 1: The Original Classic
Age of War 2
Age of War 2 is the highly anticipated sequel to the popular browser and now mobile game, Age of War. With even more themes this time around, Age of War 2 offers a similar yet equally exciting gameplay but you can now pit the ancient Egyptians against an advanced alien civilization that looks like it came from the Aliens and Predator movies. The graphics has also seen a nice overhaul, though the game retained its cartoonish looks. Of course, let's not forget about the game's more fleshed out upgrades and research system as well.Age of War 2 is definitely a fun and rather unique game that sticks true to its origins. If you enjoy casual strategy (with some elements of tower defense) games, you should definitely check this game out. Don't forget to try the original Age of War too!
Wasteland 1: The Original Classic
Wasteland 1: The Original Classic is the father of modern post-apocalyptic RPGs and rightfully so. Set in the year 2087 after an all-out nucler war, the game lays out the precedence for games like the very first Fallout game. In fact, from the game itself, you can see some of the similarities. That said, Wasteland 1 is a lot more old-school than Fallout 1 and hence, there are plenty more undesirable aspects, bugs and glitches that may make anyone albeit a hardcore fan to throw up their hands in despair.Nevertheless, Wasteland 1 is still a classic in many ways. It is possibly among the first games with a consequence-driven reactive world, for instance, and it has a party-based system allowing you to recruit people to help you on your quest to find out what's threatening the very survival of the remnants of humanity aside from the usual roving mutants and raiders.
Despite the novelty, we honestly wouldn't recommend Wasteland 1 to anyone who has not played the game before when it was first released... back when games were still primarily text-based. Instead, if you'd like to experience a much better and advanced version of Wasteland 1, you should get Wasteland 2.
