Counter-Strike: Source vs Halo 5: Guardians
Counter-Strike: Source
Counter-Strike: Source is the second installment in the incredibly popular MMOFPS franchise, Counter-Strike. Despite being a rather old game, Counter-Strike: Source still manages to hold its own in this day and age, with some even claming this game is so much better than the more recent Counter-Strike: Global Offensive or CS:GO. Unlike CS:GO, this game doesn't offer buyable skins and the most important thing - the community is definitely not as toxic as those you'd find in the CS:GO servers. Although the game modes can be rather limited, you can easily find some really good new ones in modded servers.So, if you're looking for the Counter-Strike experience without all the hate that most new players will get, this might be a good game to start.
Halo 5: Guardians
Halo 5: Guardians is the lastest installment in the award-winning Halo game franchise. Although this game has a pretty epic co-op (up to 4-player) campaign that has a pretty awesome storyline to enjoy, Halo 5 is ultimately a paradise for players who love Halo's multiplayer mode. There are plenty more multiplayer modes for you to play in, including the new, large-scaled Warzone which can be further separated into a 24-player Warzone Assault (PvP) and a 8-player Warzone Firefight (co-op). There is also the usual Arena Multiplayer mode that pits teams of 4 players against each other.But the most interesting part of its multiplayer aspect is the REQ system which awards REQ points to players engaging in multiplayer matches. These points can then be used to unlock new weapons, armor, vehicles, stances and more!
So, if you really like Halo's multiplayer games and would like to play more of it, this game is literally designed with multiplayer as its focus. You'll find the game modes and the REQ system more than enough to keep you returning to the game.
