Advanced Wars 2: Black Hole Rising vs Total War: Warhammer
Advanced Wars 2: Black Hole Rising
Advanced Wars 2: Black Hole Rising is the brilliant sequel to the award-winning Advanced Wars where, this time around, the previously failed Black Hole Army returns for a second whooping by yours truly. However, in order for you to give them the whooping they deserve, you'll need to make full use of your brand new ability - Super Commanding Officer Powers, in addition to the usual tactical and strategic gameplay. There are more units than ever for you to command and there are also more maps as well as terrain types to give you the challenge you crave. There are new maps, challenges and Commanding Officers that you can buy using points at the Battlemaps shop too. Interestingly, you can even challenge your friends to a battle and put your skills to the ultimate test.Advanced Wars 2 definitely one-ups the original by adding in a ton of new features including a new multiplayer option, further expanding the game's lifespan by miles. This is certainly a great game to buy if you've got a Nintendo 3DS and friends to play the game with.
Total War: Warhammer
Total War: Warhammer perfectly combines one of the best fantasy-adventure literature of all time with one of the best historical real-time strategy games in gaming history. Deviating from their usual historically-based titles, Total War: Warhammer is set in the rich, expansive, and most defintiely fictional universe of Warhammer, where war between the 5 major races, namely the Bretonnia, the Empire, the Dwarfs, the Vampire Counts and the Greenskins, is a pretty constant occurrence. Amass an army filled with all manner of creatures imaginable and appoint powerful Lords, equipped with the best items you cna offer, to lead your battalions in massive real-time battles.Not to mention, being a fantasy-themed game, you can now use magic to combat your foes and deploy flying units - the first time ever for a Total War game.
Featuring top-of-the-line graphics and animations, Total War: Warhammer is a marvellously-crafted and meticulously-designed masterpiece of a game. There are still some flaws that the game can work on like the sieges (need more stuff for defenders) and maybe not add in what should have been free game patches as purchasable DLCs, but that aside, the game is as great as large-scaled battles go.
