Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare vs Counter-Strike
Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare
Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare puts you in the stars, as Earth is now the seat of power in a solar system of planets all with human colonies. This futuristic version of the game gives you your own space ship, as well as the ground combat you love.The innovative storyline has been highly praised despite the unique setting. Though a step out from the norm for the franchise there are some epic moments in this game. You are a pilot called Nick Reyes of the Special Combat Air Recon (SCAR) and it is your job to keep the peace while there are factions at work. There are several versions of the campaign each getting successfully harder as you play and it creates a lot of gameplay for you. There is also the multiplayer part to the game that helped build up the franchise, though with no major developments it sticks to the formula that we all know. An interesting twist that is fun to play and a nice addition to the universe that is Call of Duty.
Counter-Strike
Counter-Strike is one of the the pioneers of the team-based multiplayer, action-shooter game genre and it is thanks to these games that we now have games like Combat Arms or even Blacklight. That said, you probably have heard of Counter-Strike so I'll keep this simple. The game places you into a team - either as Terrorists or Counter-Terrorists - before the match and your team will be given an objective to do, be it taking out enemy sites, rescue hostages or simply taking out the other team. For the "vanilla" version of Counter-Strike, the multiplayer community is pretty nice overall and definitely not as toxic as in the latest installment.However, the graphics can be rather painfully outdated in this game. So, unless you are feeling nostalgic or if you don't really mind old graphics, then Counter-Strike might just be the game for you.
