My Talking Tom vs Talking Ben the Dog
My Talking Tom
My Talking Tom is a pretty unique game where you get to adopt your very own virtual tom cat. Of course, you'll start off with a kitten (named Tom) but by taking good care of it and catering to its needs, your kitty will gradually grow into the cat it is meant to be. Being a pet simulation game, you'll not only get to dress up your cat; you can decorate his surroundings as well. You can even send your cat to various locations around the world and take pictures for your scrapbook or play some fun mini-games with him.The best part about this game though is how Tom respond to your actions. You can poke, stroke, tickle or drag him around and he will react accordingly. Like a parrot, you can also talk to him and he'll repeat everything you say back to you. This sort of reactive interaction is practically unheard of prior to My Talking Tom.
Unlike most pet simulations, the "My Talking" game series often have pets that have incredibly realistic emotions and expressions, in addition to being very adorable, making it a perfect game for players of all ages... and yes, this includes toddlers. My Talking Tom is the very first game in the series and is definitely the most established one. So, if you are interested to give the game a try, this game is your best bet.
Talking Ben the Dog
Talking Ben the Dog follows the success of Outfit7's other talking pet simulators by present you with a wisen old dog named Ben who happens to be a retired chemistry professor to keep as a pet. Being the old dog that he is, you'll really need to bother him a lot before he will stop whatever he is doing - probably reading the day's newspaper in his favorite armchair - and pay attention to you. You can then talk to him, pester him with pokes, good-humored slaps and tickles, or eve have a phone coversation with him.As he is a chemistry professor, you can have fun doing all sorts of fun and incredible chemistry experiments with Ben if you can get him to his little chem lab. Best yet, you can record your hilarious interactions with him and share them with your friends!
Talking Ben the Dog may not exactly be the usual sort of cute, adorable and possibly hyperactive virtual pet that many games often provide, and it is this stark difference that had helped this game rocket into fame. After all, there isn't a lot of game where you can keep an old virtual pet as opposed to the many that let you keep a young pet.
