Invokers Tournament vs Quake Live
Invokers Tournament
Invokers Tournament is a multiplayer online battle arena (or MOBA) game developed by StormBASIC Games exclusively for the PlayStation platform. The game was first available in the Playstation 3, and it has now arrived for the PlayStation handheld, PS Vita, and the current-gen console, Playstation 4. The gameplay in this game is pretty much similar to a typical MOBA: two opposing teams are placed in their respective bases at both ends of the map. These bases are connected via two separate paths (as opposed to the usual three), and your goal is to fight your way to through the opposing team’s defenses, be it towers, creeps or enemy players, to ultimately destroy their Core and secure a victory for your team.The most unique part of Invokers Tournament is the magic rings. Each ring your character wears (up to 2 rings max) will grant him/her to a selection of skills and sometimes, even transform your avatar into something very different. This allows you to customize your character to fit your play style and also to help you counter certain hero types simply by equipping the right combination of rings.
So, although Invokers Tournament has some special features, the gameplay still feels like your average MOBA game. However, you should definitely take note that this is among the two (so far) MOBA games that are PS-exclusive, so if you love playing games on your PlayStation and that you enjoy MOBAs, then this is one game you'll want to try.
Quake Live
Quake Live is an epic installment of the timeless classic, Quake. Returning for an encore, Quake Live aims to cater to the fans of the fast-paced arcade shooter genre by allowing them to play against other players from all over the world in any one of the game's 100 plus arenas and dozens of game modes. Not to mention, the game is often updated with new arenas from the company behind this revival of Quake as well as from its vibrant community.Quake was once the most competitive shooters in its day and it now aims to retain its title, at least in the arcade-like shooter genre, with this iteration... and we've got to say, it is doing a really great job. The game has already dive into the eSports scene with its own tournaments and it is doing really good. If you long for the good old days for frag or be fragged, this is a game you'll want to play - in addition to Quake Champions that is.
The unfortunate thing about this game is that it was previously free-to-play but now it's not. Considering that Quake Champions is already buy-to-play, it might be good to have a free-to-play version to help convert truly interested players from playing the free version to getting the paid version. It'll just allow the franchise to tap into a whole new pool of potential buyers and players after all.
