Counter-Strike vs World of Tanks: Blitz
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nice overall and definitely not as toxic as in the latest installment.However, the graphics can be rather painfully outdated in this game.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.
World of Tanks: Blitz
World of Tanks: Blitz is the so-called mobile version of one of the world's most popular tank MMO game, World of Tanks (WoT). Due to being a mobile game, the gameplay in World of Tanks: Blitz feels a tad bit more arcade-like and much more fast-paced as compared to the original. However, similar to WoT, the game offers players a wide range of tanks of varying make and models as well as capabilities and roles on the battlefield. Like Hearthstone, the game also allows cross platform gaming where players using iOS, Android, Mac and Windows players can participate with each other, though admittedly, playing on mobile might turn out to be a disadvantage and the whole battle may feel less realistic.In some way, World of Tanks: Blitz can be a nice and easy way for new players to experience the fun that the realistic tank battles in WoT can bring, but if they realized that they enjoyed the game a lot, then these players might want to consider downloading and installing the tens of gigabytes of data that World of Tanks comes with for a much more engaging and naturally, realistic experience.
