Borderlands vs Half Life 2: Episode Two
Borderlands
Borderlands is one of the craziest RPG/FPS games ever, not only because of its over-the-top characters and their dialogues but also the ridiculously whacky storyline. Join in the insanity by playing as one of four trigger-happy mercs and engage in frantic shootouts with a wide (dungeon crawlers' definition of "wide") arsenal of weapons ranging from rocket-launching shotguns to SMGs spitting out fire rounds that literally set your enemies ablaze! You can also enjoy some intense vehicular combat if guns are just too "mainstream" for you. Team with up to 4 friends as you traverse the vast, lawless and barren planet of Pandora in search of The Vault... or you can just play solo - the game doesn't mind either way.Even Borderlands' bold art style add loads to elevate the game's craziness meter to a whole new level. The game's just all around fun especially for fans of shooter games that have a huge dose of absurdity and whimsy in it and if you like the sound of this game, then Borderlands is a game you'll need to play!
Half Life 2: Episode Two
Half Life 2: Episode Two continues the storyline of Half Life 2: Episode One (obviously). Playing once again as Dr Gordon Freeman, you set off from City 17 with Alyx Vance in hopes of delivering crucial information to that's left of your fellow resistance scientists. However, to do so, you'll need to cross the dangerous White Forest while having Combine forces hot on your tail.Featuring new weapons, vehicles, and monstrous creatures, Half Life 2: Episode 2 is definitely able to satisfy the masses of fans who are hooked on one of the world's most popular classic game franchise. However, the game apparently ends with a cliffhanger and that Valve, much to the dismay of their fans, has no intentions of finishing the trilogy. This has sparked a rather huge outroar especially when it was leaked that the storyline for Episode 3 has already been written.
Regardless, this game is still a worthwhile purchase despite its years and the incomplete storyline.
