Crysis 3 vs Halo Wars
Crysis 3
Crysis 3 is one of the best sequel in the Crysis series so far. As opposed to fighting aliens or other human enemies using a variety of guns, you now possess a unique futuristic Predator Bow that Hawkeye (obviously from the Avengers) would be incredibly envious of. The bow doesn't only look insanely cool, it can even fire various types of augmented arrows that can help you counter heavy artillery fire or electrocute an entire patrol who happened to be walking through a pool of water. Couple that with an improved nanosuit that has all the usual abilities you'd expect and you'll get a super-soldier that you can fully customize to fit your play style.The storyline in this game is quite different than the usual "fight aliens and save the world" sort. In addition to dealing with aliens, you'll also be going against the nefarious C.E.L.L. corporation that had turned the devastated New York City into a vast urban rainforest protected under a massive nanodome.
Crysis 3 has state-of-the-art graphics and effects as well. So, if you are looking to get into the series or even if you're a Crysis veteran, you'll want to get this game... even if its multiplayer functions are currently offline.
Halo Wars
Halo Wars is the MMORTS spin-off that was inspired by the popular sci0fi shooter franchise, Halo. However, unlike a shooter, this time around you can choose to side with either the Covenant or the UNSC as they raise armies and battle each other on the battlefield. The game feels a lot like any other great MMORTS games, like Starcraft, but although the game supports keyboard controls, you might still want to plug in a controller because... well Halo is an XBox-exclusive series and as you might expect, its spin-offs are pretty much the same thing.The best part though is its multiplayer aspect. You can choose to play cooperatively with friends against a super strong AI in the campaign or you can go online and engage in intense, action-packed warfare with other players from all over the world through the versus game mode. However, a quick note though, waiting for its random matchmaking to find an opponent will take quite some time. So, if possible, go and meet your fellow players and add a couple of them as friends. At least when you want to play a game, you won't have to wait too long for one.
