Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars vs Sid Meier's Civilization: Beyond Earth
Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars
Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars brings the infamous Kane nad his Brotherhood of Nod back to once again launch a massive global massault on the Global Defense Initiative (GDI), starting that is known as the Third Tiberium War. Aside from the grand storyline, the game also offer three amazing campaigns containing over 35 single-player missions, three warring factions, Hollywood-laden action sequences and the same great real-time strategy gameply that had defined the series. Interestingly, there are some new features added, including the helpful side bar which allows you to manage your base while commanding your armies; choosing one of the many play styles for your AI opponents; as well as a more complex and in-depth system to combine units to create amazing super-units that you want.Although the game does have a multiplayer game mode, you probably won't be able to find anyone playing there anymore. So, if you do get this game, make sure that you are aware of this going in or you may end up disappointed.
Sid Meier's Civilization: Beyond Earth
Sid Meier's Civilization: Beyond Earth lets you play as the leader of a pioneering group of spacefarers as you set off for the stars in hopes of creating a new civilization in space. The science fiction-themed in this game is a pretty far cry from the usually historical theme in the award-winning Civilization game franchise, but the game was pretty well-done mainly because it contains many of the features that had made Civilization 5 such a resounding success while changing things up a bit, such as replacing religion with affinity, just so everything is relevant to the overall theme of the game. There are also items that you can find on the alien planet that you're trying to colonize which will unlock nice storylines and quests for you to experience. And of course, there's the epic DLC, Rising Tide, which has elevated a mediocre but interestingly-themed game into an impressive one.If you're hoping for a game that's as amazing as Civ 5, Sid Meier's Civilization: Beyond Earth might end up disappointing some of you, but if you consider that this is the franchise's first attempt in doing a game that's not history-based, then well, this is a pretty good first attempt for an established, triple-A series.
