Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception vs Vanquish
Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception
Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception lets you slide into the shoes of treasure hunter extraordinaire, Nathan Drake, once again where the search for the legendary "Atlantis of the Sands" brings him and his mentor to the middle of the Arabian Desert. However, this time, they are going up against a powerful and shadowy organization that will do whatever it takes to put an end to their hunt... and to them. Interestingly, unlike the previous games, Uncharted 3 lets you travel to a variety of beautifully rendered locations from Europe to the Middle East. Couple that with an award-winning story and Hollywood-styled cinematic experience and you'll get an epic game that somehow managed to bring Nathan's exhilarating adventures to life!The gameplay also has been drastically improved, allowing players to take on enemies using a more variety of methods including stealth. There is even a multiplayer option and various new challenges that will put your skills as a treasure hunter to the test.
Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception is perfectly designed for both fans and newcomers alike, but of course, if you're a fan, you'll probably want to have this game in your Playstation's library. It is possibly the best game from the Uncharted franchise yet!
Vanquish
Vanquish puts you into the shoes of government operative, Sam Gideon, who is part of the elite group of operatives that has their own Augmented Reaction Suit which give them superior firepower, superhuman speed and agility as well as a certain amount of suave as they take down groups of hostile and deadly robots. The combat system in this game is incredibly well-made and unique. Aside from having a bullet time system, it also provides players with a smooth gameplay, be it when they are performing kinetic melee moves or when they are trading gunfire with the robots.However, many players have mentioned about the flaw when it comes to weapon upgrades in this game. Unlike most games, you actually have to be equipping the correct gun type in order to pick up the upgrade cube, which randomly appears. It does provide players with the incentive to keep replaying the game but it can be pretty frustrating if you had to give up picking up a hard-earned cube because you don't have the weapon you need.
Besides this downside though, Vanquish is among the top-most third-person shooters that have excellent, well-designed mechanics. If you enjoy smooth combat and a cool and somewhat Halo-like suit, then this is definitely the game for you!
