Crysis Warhead vs Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines
Crysis Warhead
Crysis Warhead is somewhat like a spin-off mainly because it doesn't really continue the plotline in the main Crysis franchise. Instead, I'd venture as far to say that this game might be a prequel to the original Crysis... maybe? Anyway, in this game, you play as Sergeant Sykes who find hismelf on a life-risking mission to retrieve a cargo that's incredibly important behind enemy lines during the Korean war. The gameplay in this game is amazing visceral and intuitive, and of course, between the suit's abilities and the wide range of weapons, you'll have multiple methods to take out your enemies and walk away smiling.There are also aliens of course - it's just Crysis being Crysis - but the enemy AI is a whole lot more intelligent and may just catch you off guard if you're not careful.
As great as Crysis Warhead is, the game can be a tad bit short for its full price. However, if you can get it during a promotion, the game will be very well worth the experience, the time and the price.
Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines
Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines offers a pretty unique, story-driven, first-person action RPG, partly because it features the exciting theme of vampires - who doesn't love them? - that is set in modern-day Los Angeles; and partly because you get to play as a vampire who has an incredible range of vampiric abilities and special weapons yourself! The cast of characters in this game is pretty amazing and well-fleshed out too.Not many players would know about this but Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines is actually based on White Wolf's popular Vampire: The Masquerade pen-and-paper RPG series. So, although this game might be old, you can still be sure to have an amazing time due to the rich and immersive storyline that it is sure to have!
However, if you do plan on getting the game, be sure to grab the unofficial patch and maybe some mods to fix some of the more glaring issues, along with the rather aging graphics, just so you'd have an even better time playing the game.
