Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel vs Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Extraction
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.
Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Extraction
Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Extraction has you face the deadliest threat Team Rainbow has to deal with: a mutating, alien parasite known as the Archeaens. You’ll drop into the dangerous containment zones and deal with the extraterrestrial threat with a team of three players. Missions range from gathering samples, intelligence and extracting data from computers. They all have one thing in common, though, which is engaging hordes of the infected, as well as the aliens themselves. In typical Rainbow Six fashion, you’ll battle aliens using a massive arsenal of weapons, equipment, and other gear.Players in Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six: Extraction will go on incursions in sub-areas of a massive map. They’ll have to deal with enemies and objectives that are procedurally generated, meaning no mission is similar. Moreover, the Archeaen aliens have different variants, each with abilities of their own; these range from spikers that can throw spikes and rooters that are more durable than their peers. Compared to its famous counterpart, Siege, Extraction is a slower-paced game where you’ll have to deal with enemies slowly and meticulously instead of explosive firefights.
Overall, Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six: Extraction is a vastly different Rainbow Six experience, but nevertheless, it deserves a good, long look. So yes, it’s best to start going on incursions and stop the alien threat from reaching its peak!
