Fallout 2 vs Far Cry 2
Fallout 2
Fallout 2 is the next exciting sequel to one of the world's largest post-apocalyptic-themed RPG franchise, Fallout. Featuring the franchise's iconic open world where you are free to do whatever you like (you can opt to not follow the storyline as well), this sequel is jam-packed with even more varied characters, creatures and storylines that brings out the humanity in its players as they traverse the vast wasteland.As usual, the game provides players with in-depth character progressions in the form of its hallmark S.P.E.C.I.A.L. traits system along with the range of improvable skills that are often critical to ensure your survival in the harsh post-fallout world.
Fallout 2 doesn't really deviate much from the original first game, perhaps mainly because the developers are trying to play it safe, but it is still a great game to play.
Far Cry 2
Far Cry 2 sets you in the role of a mercenary who somehow found himself trapped between a 2-sided conflict while being stricken with malaria. You'll need to do whatever it takes to survive and complete your primary mission. Similar to the original, the game provides players with a beautiful open world to roam and explore as well as over 70 different side-missions to complete. This time around though, players can have even more fun with fire as the game mechanics will allow you to burn forests to cut off your enemies' escape. The environment in this game is destructible as well.Far Cry 2 also has a unique AI system that will build on the kills you've made and the reputation you've amassed among your enemies, resulting in unpredictable enemy reactions - they might simply drop their guns and run at the mere sight of you or they will immediately call for reinforcements. This freshens up the game significantly, giving you a different experience with every encounter. For players who want to play this game with friends, you can do so too, but be warned! Your friends can betray you as fast as they can decide to side with you, so you must always keep an eye on them, lest you get jumped.
This game is a brilliant sequel to the first Far Cry and surprisingly made quite a leap in terms of the realism of its gameplay. Some even dubbed this game as being the best Far Cry game ever, but well, you can give the game a try and we'll let you be the judge.
