Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel vs Far Cry 3
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 3
Far Cry 3 is the third installment in the Far Cry franchise that's unsurprsingly set on another beautiful tropical island. However, in this game, you'll be battling warlords who own slave rings in an attempt to try to rescue your friends. You'll also meet some really odd and disturbed people along the way; people whose loyalty changes whenever it suits them.Being an open world game, you are given complete freedom when deciding on how to approach an objective. There are plenty of vehicles for you to use as well as tons of weapons that can be customized. Far Cry 3 also has a co-op aspect where you can play with up to 4 of your friends via campaign mode, or you can also play the multiplayer mode where team-play is highly emphasized. Best yet, the game even has a map editor, allowing players to create new content for other players to enjoy.
Featuring gorgeous graphics, a crazy yet engaging storyline as well as a fun and flexible gameplay, Far Cry 3 is an amazing sequel to the franchise. If you love Far Cry, you'll enjoy this version of it.
