Command & Conquer: Tiberium Sun
Command & Conquer: Tiberium Sun transports you to 2030, where the Brotherhood of Nod is in chaos and the GDI is starting to reestablish some level of control. Out of the blue an old enemy returns and rekindles the war, alongside the alien Tiberium falling on the planet there is suddenly a host of new and deadly technology to be used in the fresh war for control. Now it falls to you to decide the fate of the world, as either the GDI or the Brotherhood.Using the style that made it famous, this RTS game brings you cutting edge gameplay, amazing cutscenes and a simply brilliant campaign to enjoy. With new units, tactics and overall mechanics that make it a much brighter experience this has gone down as one of the best games in the genre of all time. Highly rated upon release it has become a global phenomenon, and when you play you will see why.
Europa Universalis IV
Europa Universalis IV is the fourth game in the award-winning Europa Universalis franchise. Similar to its predecessors, the game has everything you'd need to build your own nation from the ground up and guide it through the ages. The freedom in which you get to customize your giverning style, your nation and even your game is simply ridiculous (in a good way) and of course, the best selling point of this series is that almost everything is based on accurate historical references, be it a historical figure or an event. This time around you'll get to grow your nation over a much wider span of history, arrange royal marriages, form coalitions, support rebels in proxy wars and more. You can even cooperate with up to 32 different players to govern a single nation. The multiplayer mode apparently now has an improved chat and a new matchmaking system.Unfortunately, the major downside about this game is that the developers, Paradox Interactive, have apparently "sold-out" by adding in features that should have been in the original game into DLCs that players actually have to pay extra for, ending up spending over $200 for just a single game. Not to mention, many players have complained that the DLCs they release are priced at the same price point despite having progressively lower amount of content.
That said, the game is still an epic masterpiece and a worthy sequel to the Europa Universalis series, but the game's hardcore player base is admittedly not happy, and honestly, we wouldn't recommend getting this game unless you can get all of the DLCs dirt cheap... maybe like in a bundle.
