Company of Heroes vs Total War: Shogun 2
Company of Heroes
Company of Heroes is the rare few World War-themed games that managed to let you experience the intensity of war and the heroic sacrifices that had to be made through the eyes of a soldier. You can play the role of a brave Allied lieutenant leading your own squad of soldiers in the game's single-player campaign or you can join the multiplayer battle between Axis and Allies (up to 8 players) by choosing a team to play as. The game also features destructible environments (you can reshape the battlefield as needed), some historical accounts about the war you'll be fighting in, and a unique strategic gameplay.Company of Heroes is one of those few rare games that World War 2 buffs would really enjoy, but even if you're not one of them, you can still enjoy the brilliant gameplay that this game has to offer.
Total War: Shogun 2
Total War: Shogun 2 is the highly anticipated sequel to the groundbreaking original game, Shogun: Total War. Set in the darkest age of Feudal Japan right after the collapse of a unified government (in 16th century to be exact), many warring clans have risen through the chaos and out of them, 10 legendary warlords, or Daimyos, have their eyes set on the coveted position of shogun, but only one of them will be able to reunite a warring island.The gameplay is pretty similar to the original game. The campaign map features a turn-based, Risk-style gameplay while the actual battles themselves (rendered in glorious 3D) are played out in real-time. However, this time around, the game is filled with a ton of new units, including massive warships, as well as a more in-depth strategic gameplay based on the ancient texts in Sun Tzu's Art of War. There are multi-stage sieges, unique hero units who can be improved through standard RPG methods, and that the campaign map is now in 3D as well and can be rotated whichever way you like.
The campaign in Total War: Shogun 2 can also be played cooperatively (2 players), but if you truly want to test your skills, you can engage in epic online battles with up to 8 other players.
This game does the very first Total War game justice and is the sort of game that fans of the series would greatly enjoy. Also, considering that the game came out more than 5 years ago, the graphics in the game is still pretty relevant today... so I guess, that's another bonus.
