Mass Effect 2 vs Max Payne
Mass Effect 2
Mass Effect 2 is the highly anticipated sequel to the new sci-fi game franchise from BioWare, Mass Effect. The story in this game continues where the previous game left off - you, playing as Commander Shepard, is now a famous hero among humans and the more peaceful alien races and is tasked with investigating the mysterious circumstances that had caused entire human colonies to disappear without so much as a single trace of resistance. Of course, you won't be doing all of this alone. With your elite team of companions assembled, you'll set off on a much powerful version of the Normandy (spaceship) to seek out the culprits, to make them pay for what they have done and to save as many survivors as you can.Featuring the same depth when it comes to character customization - perhaps even more so, this game has removed the inland exploring and mineral extracting aspect and replaced it with a probe-based planet scanning system where you will scan planets to identify mineral rich locations and then send probes to do all the collecting for you. Interestingly, some planets also have special encounters with their own side-stories that are entirely optional. The gameplay itself is still pretty well-designed but of course, it slightly pales in comparison to the incredibly rich storyline this game has to offer.
If you have enjoyed any one of the core Mass Effect trilogy, then you'll want to at least play them all so you can get the whole story. After all, having a rich, decision-based storyline is the main selling feature of this franchise. And of course, Commander Shepard him/herself recommends this game, so who are you to say no to the legendary Commander Shepard?
Max Payne
Max Payne is one of the first third-person action shooter game that feature a heartbreaking storyline where Agent 47, the protagonist that you'll be playing as, attempts to hunt down the people who have slain his family (a wife and a baby girl) while trying to deal with the crushing grief that came with the loss. At the expanse of your character, the game puts a refreshing twist to the usual explosive action that 007 or any other secret agent film that had come out from Hollywood.In addition to the incredibly immersive storyline where you actually feel for the protagonist and his struggle with his grief, the gameplay in Max Payne is groundbreaking as well. Max happens to also be on the run for a murder he did not commit, and being a man with only one thing - vengeance - to lose, you'll need to help him fend off both the cops and the mob alike using the game's stylish slow-motion gunplay.
Max Payne is the first game of its kind to give players a dark and twisted storyline that's worthy of more than just a single movie. If you love shooter games and you enjoy a mystery thriller, than Max Payne is definitely the game for you.
