Blazing Core vs Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell: Blacklist
Blazing Core
Blazing Core is a tactical MMO third-person shooter where you get to team up with two or five other players to battle in an arena while playing as a cool-looking Mech Knight. The game is currently in beta but it already exudes its potential of becoming the next eSports game by offering an interesting combination of mechs, weapons, and abilities, a ranked competitive mode, as well as a decently designed map.Granted that the game doesn't really have a lot going for it at the moment, mainly because it's still in beta and the devs still have plenty to do to make it better, but Blazing Core does look like a MOBA that might just appeal to competitive players everywhere. The game is coming to open beta on Sept 7th so you can get a chance to try the game out yourself!
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.
