Into the Dead vs N.O.V.A. 1
Into the Dead
Into the Dead is a fairly simply first-person shooter game that has some of the most intense zombie-themed post-apocalyptic setting that I have ever experienced. To stay alive, you not only need to have great aim; you'll also know when to run. Like most FPS games, the game does have a nice arsenal of weapons for you to use, but so far, this aspect seems a bit lacking since 1. there isn't a lot of variety unless you pay real money and 2. there is no way for you to upgrade your existing weapons. There are also tons of thrilling missions and minigames to complete as well as new game modes and features to enjoy.Although Into the Dead is not perfect, the game does have that special thrill of horror as you do your best to fend off the incoming hordes of zombies. It is definitely the perfect game to play if you're up for a heart-pounding zombie-killing, post-apocalyptic adventure.
N.O.V.A. 1
N.O.V.A. 1 is set in a futuristic time period where Earth had became unsustainable to life. Thankfully, humanity has already created huge artificial satellites for people to live on and in their defense, N.O.V.A., the Near Orbit Vanguard Alliance, was born. However, when the aggressive alien race called Judgers showed their intention to wipe out humanity, retired veteran N.O.V.A. marine, Kal Wardin, was forced back into active duty in mankind's all-out war for survival against the Judgers. Aside from an epic campaign, the game also provides multiplayer matches, a worldwide leaderboard to rank its players, and up to 6 unique weapons to play with.N.O.V.A. 1 took the world by storm with its enigmatic hero, an epic "save humanity" storyline as well as brilliant graphics that just compliments the game's sci-fi theme. Although this game is no longer available, you can grab its latest installment, N.O.V.A. 3, or pick another game from our list of alternative games.
