Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel vs Far Cry 1
Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel
Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel is supposed to be the Borderlands game that occurs in between Borderlands 1 and 2 as it details Handsome Jack's rise to power and wealth. The game features a pretty similar frantic gameplay to Borderlands 2 with a few major changes - Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel is set in space and on a planet with low gravity and limited oxygen supply. These factors do bump up the difficult of the game by a notch and it is incredibly fun to enjoy the virtually-designed low gravity effect in first person.Like Borderlands 2, this game brings along with it a brand new cast of anti-heroes, each with their own set of special abilities. Interestingly, you get to play the annoyingly amusing (or is it "amusingly annoying"?) little robot - Claptrap - in this pre-sequel too! Of course, being space, you'll get a new line of vehicles to wreak havoc in.
If you're here for the story, then you'll won't find Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel disappointing, but when it comes to its gameplay, it does feel a bit lackluster at times. All in all though, the game bridges the story perfectly and is pretty much a must-buy for fans of the series, but if you're new to the series, it might be best to start with either Borderlands 1 or 2.
Far Cry 1
Far Cry 1 is the first game of a pretty popular open world action-adventure game. Assuming the role of Jack Carver, a freelance mariner, you find yourself being hunted by the militia on a beautiful tropical paradise of an island. However, things aren't as they seem and soon after, you will have to decide to take out the militia group and its leader yourself or condemn the world to the maniac's nefarious plans.The gameplay - or should we say gunplay - in Far Cry is simply incredible. Being the hero of the game, you'll have access to a ton of tactical tools, such as motion-sensing binoculars, that will come in handy when taking on larger groups of enemies. You can even engage the enemy stealthily or simply ram down the front gate with an armored vehicle and start mowing your enemies down... how you choose to approach your target is entirely up to you! Of course, let's not forget about the large variety of weapons and vehicles that you can use. The cunning AI system that will also force you to constantly up your game as the enemies find weaknesses in your strategy and exploit it in the next encounter.
Not to mention, the game has impressive graphics for a game of its time and the game environment feels so realistic, especially with the gorgeous setting and the amazing shadow and weather effects. If you love open world shooters, you'll enjoy Far Cry... this we can assure you!
