Ghost in the Shell: First Assault Online vs Planetside 2
Ghost in the Shell: First Assault Online
Ghost in the Shell: First Assault Online is a squad based FPS game that allows you to pick from a selection of squad members from Section 9 – a squad of cybernetically-enhanced individuals that probably couldn’t become any cooler if they tried. You’re pitted against other players in the game in a number of different game modes, such as “Team Deathmatch” or “Demolition,” which is similar to how Call of Duty’s “Search and Destroy” game mode works. There’s plenty to unlock and enjoy in this FPS game, so it can keep you hooked for a considerable amount of hours once you make a start on it for the first time!Planetside 2
Planetside 2 is a sci-fi-themed MMOFPS game that's the explosive sequel to its predecessor, Planetside, which was released back in 2003. In a way, the game is more inclined towards the extravagant and yet is still rather down-to-earth mainly because it features massive battlefields where hundreds to even thousands of players can battle it out for their faction. In fact, the game has an exciting gameplay which may bring to mind the games in the Battlefield franchise albeit the futuristic sort.Not to mention, Planetside 2 has an actual war playing out on the map where players who won a certain battlefield will essentially "claim" the land for their faction. The tug-of-war-like power struggle between factions help to bond the players in a way that resembles the deep rift between the Alliance and the Horde in World of Warcraft. The game is also developed by Daybreak Games which is in pretty good company along the likes of EverQuest 2, DC Universe Online and Lord of the Rings Online.
So, if you're looking for an epic MMOFPS game to fully immerse yourself in, then Planetside 2 is your best bet. If not, there are plenty of other casual shooters out there, but you can definitely expect that none of them can measure up to the faction-vs-faction tension, which usually erupts into another battle, offered in this game.
