Anarchy Online vs BioShock Infinite
Anarchy Online
Anarchy Online is one of the first science fiction-theme MMORPG when it was introduced in 2001 and unsurprisingly, the game was very well-received back then. Originally a subscription-based game, it was one of the first games to introduce free trials to players who wanted to give the game a try. It features deep character interaction and development and has a wide range of classes to choose from. The gameplay is entertaining and the lore will delight those who enjoy a good original storyline.However, Anarchy Online is one of those old-school MMOs that had not aged well. The more than 15-year-old graphics isn't exactly what it used to be, and despite the huge amount of content you get to enjoy, once you've done everything there is to do in this game, you'll start to gradually feel bored since there will be no additional content, ever. The publishers have also stated that they will only keep the servers running and that's about it. So, cheaters and exploiters pretty much roam freely here and you can expect a pretty deprecated in-game economy and currency.
So, although many have considered this game as one of the more underrated MMORPG classics, Anarchy Online may not be the sort of game you'd want to spend too much time in, mainly because right now there are so many other options out there, unless it's for nostalgic purposes.
BioShock Infinite
BioShock Infinite is the last sequel of the BioShock series and is possibly the best one (or worst, depending on which side of the coin you are at) yet. The game is set in a gorgeous and populated city (at least at the beginning) in the sky called Columbia that unfortunately is not as cheery it apparently seems. The gameplay is quite different too since you'll have access to the city's many ziplines via special grappling hooks called Sky-Hooks, tears in the fabrics of time that you can exploit during combat to pull in aid in the form of turrets, weapons and other resources; as well as more Vigors.Not many people like this version of BioShock for their own reasons, but everyone can agree that for what it's worth, this game shouldn't be the end of the BioShock series... but that was what happened. So, if you're a fan of the franchise, this game is definitely a must-buy, just so you can enjoy the unique flavor of your favorite series one last time... and also to get your mind blown to pieces figuratively when you eventually realize how well the story is rounded up with that rather befuddling ending.
