Heroes of Newerth vs Point Blank: Strike
Heroes of Newerth
Heroes of Newerth is a rather decent MOBA game that caters to a group of moderately hardcore to the hardcore elite players, though it doesn’t exactly have anything that truly sets it apart from other MOBAs. The skill ceiling in this game is rather high, making it not exactly a casual or newbie-friendly game. That being said, the game has an amazing pool of 120 different heroes that are all available for you to enjoy. The game also has 2 game modes, Co-op and PvP, whereby Co-op is for the newer and trainee players while PvP are where all the experienced players go to when they play HoN. The experience point system is a nice touch and is particularly helpful for players, who love to play roles that only excel at higher levels or after getting their ultimate skills. The very useful feature of adding a player’s hero build guide in the in-game shops is pretty well-done as well! However, do be warned that players can get a bit rough with their language if you mess up a game in PvP.If you are looking for intense MOBA matches with the likes of League of Legends or DotA 2, Heroes of Newerth is definitely a game that you can try! It has been incredibly popular once and it can be once again.
Point Blank: Strike
Point Blank: Strike is the mobile version of Nexon's popular PC-based MMOFPS game, Point Blank. Similar to its PC counterpart, the game looks just like the original, with tons of classic Point Blank maps (Bunker, Burning Hall and Crackdown), weapons, avatars, and game modes (Team Deathmatch, Demolition, Emblem Match, AI Battle, etc) painstakingly recreated on the mobile platform, offering players a much better FPS experience.The controls, however, will have to be changed due to the lack of a keyboard and mouse, but the changes made are pretty okay so far, allowing players to enjoy intense and thrilling FPS action without too huge of a shift from other FPS apps in either GooglePlay or the AppStore... though there are still some bits that could be improved on.
Point Blank: Strike aims to bring Point Blank to the mobile platform and I've got to say, Nexon did a pretty swell job. As mentioned, there are still some bugs to knock out, but generally, playing Point Blank: Strike feels so much like you're playing Point Blank on mobile and that's all the matters!
