Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning vs The Sims 3
Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning
Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning is an amazing action-based RPG which we frankly think was one of those RPG gems that were somehow overlooked. Even with its age in mind, the game still does well to cater to fans of RPGs today, giving them a memorable storyline based on a universe created by none other than the legend in fantasy novels, R.A. Salvatore; a host of interesting characters to interact with, and a massive open world to explore. Character customization is pretty extensive here, allowing you to change your character's class, skills and abilities to fit your play style. You can change your character's equipment as well.The amazing part about this game, aside from its immersive storyline and world, is how seemlessly it has managed to integrate magic-wielding with swordplay (it doesn't exactly have to be swords though) in its exhilarting action combat. It does make you feel like you are in the shoes of your character.
Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning may not be a "Skyrim"-sort of game, but it's incredibly in-depth, able to offer you hundreds of hours of play time at the very least, especially if you are determined to complete every side quest and explore every corner of the beautiful world. It's definitely worth every cent you spent on it!
The Sims 3
The Sims 3 lets you design your ideal world from the ground up and influence the Sims living in it. The customization in this game is astounding - you can create your perfect Sim by changing his/her looks, outfits and even the personality traits. You'll even get a home that you can decorate as you please as well. Being a life simulation game, you'll also need to guide your Sim as he/she step on the rollercoaster of life, develop a career, find a partner for life, accumulate skills and knowledge, and chase after their dreams. Interestingly, you can even record your Sim's adventures and share them with the game's vibrant community.The Sims 3 definitely one-ups its predecessor in so many ways and is worth every cent you put into it. The replayability is as amazing as ever and the gameplay is simply perfect for its genre.
