Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3 vs Fortnite
Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3
Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3 is the latest installment of the real-time strategy game franchise, Command & Conquer: Red Alert. Despite the apparently intriguing storyline of a time travel gone awry and the brilliant live-action HD videos, the science fiction-themed narrative is somewhat weak in comparison to the previous titles. However, it's nice that this time around, you get to choose between one of three factions (Allies, Soviets, and the Empire of the Rising Sun, or the Empire for short) to play as rather than having only two. The campaigns are pretty fun as well and the game does have a rather nice co-command feature that links all the campaign missions together.Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3 has a really nice take on the alternative world theme and the strategic gameplay is incredible as usual. If you're interested, you can try the game's demo before buying it on Steam.
Fortnite
Fortnite is a unique tower-defense-like co-op game where players will be given a limited amount of time to make a coordinated effort to gather resources like metal, brick, wood and nuts and bolts, from their surroundings, build a base to defend from, and set up traps to protect said base. Oh and don't forget to upgrade the base whenever's possible and make sure to reinforce your passive defenses before the next wave of enemies arrives!Set in a world where most of humanity was somehow turned by a freak and mystical storm into mindless creatures called Husks, this game will have you fight for the last of humanity while playing as the world's last remaining heroes. You'll get to choose from one of four classes, namely the Outlander, Soldier, Constructor, and Ninja, each of which has their own unique roles to play in the team.
Fortnite may have lost some of its shine in the limelight due to the immense success of its battle royale add-on game mode, Fortnite Battle Royale, but this doesn't at all diminish the exciting multiplayer gameplay it has to offer. This is definitely a game to watch... and to play once it's officially released - hopefully as a free-to-play.
If you would like to jump into the game a bit earlier than the masses, you can purchase the early access bundle which will not only get you access to the game, but also some nice little, and exclusive, extras.
