Cytus II vs Half Life 2: Episode One
Cytus II
Cytus II is the sequel to the highly popular action-rhythm game, Cytus, but it's the fourth music game title from the developer, Rayark Games. Set once again in a futuristic, sci-fi society where a mega virtual world exists in the internet space known as Cytus, a mysterious DJ legend called Æsir emerged. His music sold like hot cakes and people fell madly in love with his work. Like Daft Punk (at least while they are performing), no one has ever seen this DJ's actual face, but one day, he suddenly announced a concert where he purportedly will be showing up in person (digital-wise since it's in Cytus). What will go down at this event? Well, no spoilers - Go play the game and you can eventually piece together the story to find out the ending yourself!That said, the game features the same intuitive gameplay but this time around, the game uses a unique "Active Judgement Line" system that makes the actual scan line to move rather than having the notes move. You'll only tap on the notes when the line reaches them, preferably when it's right in the middle. The game also contains a ton of high-quality music (over 50 of them, in fact) featuring composers from all around the world. The genres of the music vary widely as well, from electronic to rock.
Cytus II is an amazing addition to the Cytus series and is a must-play for fans of the original, but even if you have not played Cytus before, you can still appreciate the brilliance in combining immersive storytelling, excellent music, and an intense tapping-based gameplay.
Half Life 2: Episode One
Half Life 2: Episode One is the first standalone game in Valve's spin-off trilogy for its game series, Half Life. Featuring a gameplay that closely resembles Half Life 2, its namesake, this game provides loyal fans of the game a nice continuation (somewhat) in the series' storyline. Similar to Half Life 2, this game has a lot more scripted scenes as well as puzzles and strategic combat rather than simply adding in more aliens for you to fight and weapons for you to fight with.Despite its rather short game duration, Half Life 2: Episode One gives its hardcore fans something to chew on as they wait - endlessly - for a Half Life 3. And naturally, being released in 2006, the game has a more polished look. To be honest, it's a great alternative game to Half Life 2.
