Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 vs Half Life 2: Episode One
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is the Second in the more modern series and features some of the characters you know and fought with in events following the first game. Here you will be fighting in 2016 with all the modern weapons and equipment that it brings.There are 3 game modes to this version, you have the single player Campaign, Spec Ops and Multiplayer. The campaign has a series of missions each with their own unique setting and objectives that fall into a larger story. The Spec Ops are special small missions you can do solo or in co op and have timed or targeted objectives. There is also the much loved multiplayer side to the game too where once more your killstreak and experience can work in your favor with unlocks and special equipment. This is a much praised sequel in the series and it has a huge replay factor built in and is a lot of fun when you get into it.
Half Life 2: Episode One
Half Life 2: Episode One is the first standalone game in Valve's spin-off trilogy for its game series, Half Life. Featuring a gameplay that closely resembles Half Life 2, its namesake, this game provides loyal fans of the game a nice continuation (somewhat) in the series' storyline. Similar to Half Life 2, this game has a lot more scripted scenes as well as puzzles and strategic combat rather than simply adding in more aliens for you to fight and weapons for you to fight with.Despite its rather short game duration, Half Life 2: Episode One gives its hardcore fans something to chew on as they wait - endlessly - for a Half Life 3. And naturally, being released in 2006, the game has a more polished look. To be honest, it's a great alternative game to Half Life 2.
