Quake Live vs World of Tanks: Blitz
Quake Live
Quake Live is an epic installment of the timeless classic, Quake. Returning for an encore, Quake Live aims to cater to the fans of the fast-paced arcade shooter genre by allowing them to play against other players from all over the world in any one of the game's 100 plus arenas and dozens of game modes. Not to mention, the game is often updated with new arenas from the company behind this revival of Quake as well as from its vibrant community.Quake was once the most competitive shooters in its day and it now aims to retain its title, at least in the arcade-like shooter genre, with this iteration... and we've got to say, it is doing a really great job. The game has already dive into the eSports scene with its own tournaments and it is doing really good. If you long for the good old days for frag or be fragged, this is a game you'll want to play - in addition to Quake Champions that is.
The unfortunate thing about this game is that it was previously free-to-play but now it's not. Considering that Quake Champions is already buy-to-play, it might be good to have a free-to-play version to help convert truly interested players from playing the free version to getting the paid version. It'll just allow the franchise to tap into a whole new pool of potential buyers and players after all.
World of Tanks: Blitz
World of Tanks: Blitz is the so-called mobile version of one of the world's most popular tank MMO game, World of Tanks (WoT). Due to being a mobile game, the gameplay in World of Tanks: Blitz feels a tad bit more arcade-like and much more fast-paced as compared to the original. However, similar to WoT, the game offers players a wide range of tanks of varying make and models as well as capabilities and roles on the battlefield. Like Hearthstone, the game also allows cross platform gaming where players using iOS, Android, Mac and Windows players can participate with each other, though admittedly, playing on mobile might turn out to be a disadvantage and the whole battle may feel less realistic.In some way, World of Tanks: Blitz can be a nice and easy way for new players to experience the fun that the realistic tank battles in WoT can bring, but if they realized that they enjoyed the game a lot, then these players might want to consider downloading and installing the tens of gigabytes of data that World of Tanks comes with for a much more engaging and naturally, realistic experience.
