Rise of the Triad vs S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call of Pripyat
Rise of the Triad
Rise of the Triad was one of the best cult-classic of its era and now, the younger generation (along with the old) will get to enjoy this timeless first-person shooter game once again in this brilliant improved yet stoically-original version. In this game, you'll get to step into the shoes of the High-Risk United Nations Taskforce (or H.U.N.T. for short) as you blast your way through levels of non-stop, gory-filled action, gunning down enemies left and right as they come at you. Each level is also filled with secret niches and collectibles for you to find, and of course, who can forget the game's iconic original soundtrack... which has been reworked with elements of heavy metal to make it even more intense than before.With better graphics and an overall improved experience well-suited for the modern gamer, Rise of the Triad will be able to attract new players into its fold with its intriguing storyline and fun gameplay, while retaining enough of the original to give older players a nostalgic journey as they replayed one of their favorite games back in the day.
S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call of Pripyat
S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call of Pripyat is the third and final installment of the pretty successful survival-horror first-person shooter franchise, S.T.A.L.K.E.R.

The game is as brilliantly creepy as ever with the addition of new yet equally gruesome monsters as well as a world environment that's built based on real-life photos captured in the exclusion zone. The survival aspect of the game has also been revamped with the addition of a sleep function, a new A-life system and emissions that can influence the game environment.There is even a free play mode after you've completed all the main quests, as well as a slew of side quests that you can pick up and do. Interestingly, the game has a Battle Royale-like multiplayer component that can support up to 32 players, has four different game modes along with multiple maps.
