Fallout Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel vs The Walking Dead: Season One
Fallout Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel
Fallout Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel is another spin-off, aside from Fallout: New Vegas, in the Fallout franchise, but unlike New Vegas, this game went halfway back to its roots in terms of its looks (with isometric graphics) while the other half is filled with an amazingly-strategic, turn-based and squad-based combat system. The squad system works well in this game mainly because the storyline in this game is based on the famous/infamous Brotherhood of Steel and apparently, you'll be playing one of the squads, and partly because you have the freedom to actually customize every member of your squad so you could specialize their skills or have them be as versatile as possible.Despite being one of the most overlooked Fallout games, Fallout Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel is a very strategic game that allow Fallout's younger fan base to catch a glimpse of the old-school Fallout games while still retaining a certain amount of modern-ness in its gameplay back when it was first released. After all, it's the most recent Fallout game that truly pays homage to the really old Fallout games.
The Walking Dead: Season One
The Walking Dead: Season One is the first of the 3-season, story-based game series, The Walking Dead, from Telltale Games and it has rapidly rose to fame partly because the TV series of the same name was (and is still) incredibly popular, but mainly because of the powerful writing and animations that are enough to make even grown men weep. The story in this game puts you in the shoes of Lee Everett, a convicted criminal who is given a second chance in a post-apocalyptic world filled with the undead - a second chance that came in the form of a young orphaned girl, Clementine. With the girl in tow, he vows to protect her at all costs in his own personal quest for redemption. This season contains 5 episodes in total, namely A New Day, Starved for Help, Long Road Ahead, Around Every Corner and No Time Left.The most interesting part about this game is that you'll be given the chance to make critical decisions that may drastically change the path of the plotline, resulting in a very different ending. Much like the gamebooks of old, this game offers multiple endings for you to discover. Sometimes, you'll even have to make important decisions within a limited time (almost immediately, in fact), enhancing the immersion and realism of the story itself.
Garnered over 90 Game of the Year awards, The Walking Dead: Season One will definitely provide players with plenty of nice side stories in addition to the main plotline where you can meet various famous characters in the TV shows before they all ended up in the same city where the first few episodes of the TV show were set in. This is a game that fans of The Walking Dead or of a good story-rich game shoulsn't miss out on!
