Borderlands vs Portal
Borderlands
Borderlands is one of the craziest RPG/FPS games ever, not only because of its over-the-top characters and their dialogues but also the ridiculously whacky storyline. Join in the insanity by playing as one of four trigger-happy mercs and engage in frantic shootouts with a wide (dungeon crawlers' definition of "wide") arsenal of weapons ranging from rocket-launching shotguns to SMGs spitting out fire rounds that literally set your enemies ablaze! You can also enjoy some intense vehicular combat if guns are just too "mainstream" for you. Team with up to 4 friends as you traverse the vast, lawless and barren planet of Pandora in search of The Vault... or you can just play solo - the game doesn't mind either way.Even Borderlands' bold art style add loads to elevate the game's craziness meter to a whole new level. The game's just all around fun especially for fans of shooter games that have a huge dose of absurdity and whimsy in it and if you like the sound of this game, then Borderlands is a game you'll need to play!
Portal
Portal is one of the most highly acclaimed and innovative puzzle-shooter game of all time. The game is set in the mysterious Aperture Science Laboratories where players, while playing as the human test subject, Chell, will need to manipulate objects and move through space by strategically opening portals to solve physical puzzles in controlled environments generated by the nefarious AI supercomputer, Glados.Featuring 19 levels in total that gets progressively more difficult than the previous, the game promotes creativity when it comes to puzzle-solving especially in the later levels, requiring players to explore various ways to best solve the level. There is also an advanced mode that drastically increases the difficulty of the last 6 levels. This is perfect for players who want to go a step further to challenge their puzzle-solving skills.
Portal is rather revolutionary in its own way and it's no wonder why the game has been awarded and nominated for multiple awards. If you fancy a fun and somewhat relaxing brain teaser, Portal is the game for you. Do check it out!
