Portal vs Star Citizen
Portal
Portal is one of the most highly acclaimed and innovative puzzle-shooter game of all time. The game is set in the mysterious Aperture Science Laboratories where players, while playing as the human test subject, Chell, will need to manipulate objects and move through space by strategically opening portals to solve physical puzzles in controlled environments generated by the nefarious AI supercomputer, Glados.Featuring 19 levels in total that gets progressively more difficult than the previous, the game promotes creativity when it comes to puzzle-solving especially in the later levels, requiring players to explore various ways to best solve the level. There is also an advanced mode that drastically increases the difficulty of the last 6 levels. This is perfect for players who want to go a step further to challenge their puzzle-solving skills.
Portal is rather revolutionary in its own way and it's no wonder why the game has been awarded and nominated for multiple awards. If you fancy a fun and somewhat relaxing brain teaser, Portal is the game for you. Do check it out!
Star Citizen
Star Citizen is an incredibly ambitious and yet highly anticipated (and not to mention, hyped-up especially players who simply adore the genre) project to create the world's very first open world, sandbox game that's set not only in space but also on the many different planets and other locations that you happen to land on/dock to. The game will be pretty massive and it is developed on an as grand a scale as an indie company possibly can. The end product - the game's currently in early access - might end up looking like a Star Wars/Star Trek-like world that's equally in-depth and likely as diverse. Of course, the science-fiction/futuristic feel simply adds to the enormity of the game.However, being the type of game that even triple-A companies have never yet attempted before, the developers have drawn some flak in regard to the chances of actually finishing the game development process and giving their players - the people who had bought and funded the game - a complete game to play. Many critics think that these players will get burned in the end, but for someone who has grown up somewhat obsessed with almost every "space frontier"-type series ever made, I do hope that Star Citizen will be able to reach its true potential even if that means the downloads will take a painfully long time to complete.
