Kingdom of the Dead vs Left4Dead
Kingdom of the Dead
Kingdom of the Dead is an action-packed, first-person shooter inspired by the timeless and iconic game, Doom, that puts you in the shoes of Agent Chamberlain, a professor-turned-Army General of a secret government program known only as “Gatekeeper”. Your goal? To foil Death’s evil plans to take over the world by closing all the Gates of Death and defeating all his minions, both big and small.Now, Kingdom of the Dead may be inspired by Doom but it offers a different kind of experience. This doesn’t mean that the game’s bad – in fact, the game’s pretty fun to play as long as you aren’t trying to compare it with other renowned faster-paced shooters and enjoy the game as it is. Price-wise, the game’s a pretty good deal for the amount of content it offers.
However, there are some issues that the game really needs to work out, such as the weapons balancing issue and players or enemies getting stuck to objects or the environment that the developers should really patch up as soon as they can.
Left4Dead
Left4Dead is among one of the very first popular zombie-themed shooters that has evolved from being simply a single player experience into a multiplayer game that almost every 90s gamer have played in LAN sessions or at cyber cafes... or have at least heard of it. Developed by Valve, the game features a wide variety of zombies, each with their own special abilities; relatable characters and an urgency to reach the next safe house due to the waves after waves of zombies that make you feel like you are actually trying to fight for your own life! There are plenty of interesting locations and unique scenarios for you to enjoy, allowing players to break the monotony of fending off endless hordes of zombies.Once you're done with the campaign, there is even a multiplayer aspect which will allow you to play with your friends against another team of your friends as either the human survivors or as the ravenous zombies. Admittedly, the multiplayer mode is the perfect addition to the game as it drastically expanded the game's lifespan.
All in all, Left4Dead is the first of a hugely popular series of games that many are still clamoring for a sequel until today. The graphics and gameplay may feel rather outdated in this day and age but if you have a soft spot for "old but gold" games, this is one of the more modern classics that you should really try.
