APB Reloaded vs Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell: Blacklist
APB Reloaded
APB Reloaded is an online MMO third person shooter(TPS) game where players can choose to play as police enforcers or criminals (as opposed to terrorists and counter-terrorists). The game has a punky style as well as a gameplay that may bring to mind other gangster-themed RPGs like Grand Theft Auto after being fused with conventional shooter games like Counter Strike or Call of Duty.In this game, you get to roam freely around a large city and interact with NPCs to take on missions, some of which are PvP battles with the opposing faction. Like GTA games, APB Reloaded also allows you to customize your character in a rather in-depth manner where you'll get to pick different outfits to wear.
In short, players who love to play a third-person MMO shooter with a Grand Theft Auto vibe should definitely check this game out!
Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell: Blacklist
Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell: Blacklist is the latest game under the Splinter Cell franchise and it is possibly the best one yet. As opposed to the more disappointing Conviction, Blacklist manages to combine the best of both the original and Conviction titles and added in all the features that players have complained the sequel lacked, including actual stealth-based gameplay where you can avoid an enemy instead of forcing you to engage him, as well as performing non-lethal takedowns.As usual, you'll have access to an arsenal of impressive gadgets which does make your job a whole lot easier, but this time around, certain unique enemies are able to counter your devices, forcing you to come up with new alternative plans rather than simply sticking to the "distract-and-take out" routine. This is very unlike Conviction where the gadgets had made the game too easy.
The storyline is also pretty good since the protagonist, Sam Fisher, now has free reign to do what it takes to take down a group of terrorists called The Engineers and their ultimate terror attack plan to launch escalating attacks on US interests around the world, codenamed Blacklist. Your mission? Flush out their leader and take him down.
Aside fromt he campaing, the game has cooperative missions that you can play with friends online as well. However, the servers have long since been taken down and thus, you either have to play those coop missions alone - it's possible, thankfully - or you can try LAN.
