Call of Duty: Black Ops vs Far Cry 4
Call of Duty: Black Ops
Call of Duty: Black Ops puts you in a different place to all of the other Call of Duty games. Here you are in the 1960’s cold war era and there are dark shadows moving. You step into the role of a CIA agent on the hunt for a dangerous enemy.Though the setting is different you still have all of the gameplay and features of the series that you love. There is an extensive single player campaign, that you can also complete in co op and a huge multiplayer section too. The campaign allows you to control a variety of characters in different locations all over the world and follows primarily the adventures of Alex Mason a CIA operative trying to stop a deadly plot. The multiplayer version of the game has all the experience points and game modes you love with the option to earn and spend COD points for even better gear. One of the best games in the series this departure from the norm is an experience you do not want to miss.
Far Cry 4
Far Cry 4 casts you into the role of Ajay Ghale, a person who travelled to the remote mountainous region of Kyrat to fulfill his mother's dying wish only to find himself trapped in a civil war between the rebels and the dictator that ruled the region with an iron fist, Pagan Min. Featuring the same epic open world and the freedom to literally do whatever you like, Far Cry 4 has a whole lot more deadly beings aside from humans with guns; the place is teeming with a wide variety of dangerous wildlife that will put your hunting skills to the test. The game also provides you with a whole new set of weapons and vehicles, including the ability to ride an elephant into battle. Far Cry 4 even has a co-op aspect where you can grab a friend to explore the beautiful region and kill Pagan's people along with you.However, the game only has an automatic save (and no checkpoint saves) that severely limits the supposedly sandbox aspect of the game and well, the game has unskippable cutscenes, which frankly can get rather annoying in your second playthrough. Despite its downsides though, Far Cry 4 feels a lot more realistic than most open world games mainly because of the abundant of wildlife that is supposed to be present in a remote region like Kyrat. If you've enjoyed most of the Far Cry games so far, you'll definitely love this one.
