Crysis 2 vs Half Life 2: Episode Two
Crysis 2
Crysis 2 lets you put on the incredibly high-tech nanosuit once again and reprise your role as the defender of humanity against the alien threat that is growing by the day. Use the suit's upgraded abilities, ranging from invisibility to bonus armor and to power boost, as well as an arsenal of weapons to tackle various aliens in the urban landscape of New York City. The gameplay is also pretty similar to Counter Strike or Call of Duty so don't go in expecting cover-based shooting like Ghost Recon's games.Similar to the first Crysis game, Crysis 2 no longer has servers to support its multiplayer function. Regardless, the game is still a gem and if you love Crysis, you'll want to get this game as well.
Half Life 2: Episode Two
Half Life 2: Episode Two continues the storyline of Half Life 2: Episode One (obviously). Playing once again as Dr Gordon Freeman, you set off from City 17 with Alyx Vance in hopes of delivering crucial information to that's left of your fellow resistance scientists. However, to do so, you'll need to cross the dangerous White Forest while having Combine forces hot on your tail.Featuring new weapons, vehicles, and monstrous creatures, Half Life 2: Episode 2 is definitely able to satisfy the masses of fans who are hooked on one of the world's most popular classic game franchise. However, the game apparently ends with a cliffhanger and that Valve, much to the dismay of their fans, has no intentions of finishing the trilogy. This has sparked a rather huge outroar especially when it was leaked that the storyline for Episode 3 has already been written.
Regardless, this game is still a worthwhile purchase despite its years and the incomplete storyline.
