Just Cause vs Rage 2
Just Cause
Just Cause is the game to play if you enjoy just destroying anything and everything in your way while enjoying movie-like quality stunts and slow motion effects, which will naturally make your character look super cool. Featuring a wide variety of weapons and vehicles (sea, land and air), Rico (the character you'll be playing as) also has his iconic wingsuit which allows you to explore the island of San Esperito by air and grappling hook that allows you to use scale previously impossible cliffs or sides of buildings and more.Similar to Fallout, Just Cause provides players with total and complete freedom to do whatever they like, however they like. This applies to the game's many missions, side missions, bonus missions and more. The best part about this game though is its over-the-top stunts which in some way parody the crazy cinematically enhanced stunts and effects that many blockbuster Hollywood films use.
Although the storyline in this game falls flat, Just Cause gotten its golden ticket to fame due to the insane amount of explosive destruction that you are allowed to do and the awesome way your character looks when you do it. In a way, Just Cause is a game that's designed as a game-based release valve for all the penned up rage and stress from your everyday lives, giving you a vast game world (and perhaps egging you on) to smash virtual things and people in.
Rage 2
Rage 2 is the highly-anticipated sequel to what seems to be an underrated, post-apocalyptic-themed action-shooter game. The original Rage was hailed as the ultimate combination of the dystopian world of Fallout, epic vehicular combat, a gameplay that mimics the intensity of Just Cause, and the sort of insanity which can only be characterized as Borderlands-like, and this sequel promises to deliver on all of that and more!Playing as the hero, Walker, you set off across the sun-scorched wastelands in pursuit of the nefarious Authority, but the place is massive and you'll need all the help you can get to navigate the world. This time around, you'll not only be able to drive monstrous battle vehicles; you can even take to the air in gyrocopters. Basically, if you see a vehicle, chances are you'll be able to drive or pilot it - it's that's simple.
The range of enemies (of various factions) that you'll encounter is pretty varied as well, with each featuring its own lineup of crazies, mutants and even monters. The same goes for the arsenal of futuristic weapons that you'll be able to collect and use to dish out a circus of carnage.
Rage is is currently available for pre-oreders on Bethesda's website. If you do order now, you can get an exclusive Cult of the Death God mission, which has a nice bit about the hero of the first Rage game and a chance to receive Raine’s legendary armor, the fan-favorite Settler Pistol and the new Mutant Monster Truck... if you managed to get through the hordes of mutants that is.
