Crysis 3 vs Mass Effect 2
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.
Mass Effect 2
Mass Effect 2 is the highly anticipated sequel to the new sci-fi game franchise from BioWare, Mass Effect. The story in this game continues where the previous game left off - you, playing as Commander Shepard, is now a famous hero among humans and the more peaceful alien races and is tasked with investigating the mysterious circumstances that had caused entire human colonies to disappear without so much as a single trace of resistance. Of course, you won't be doing all of this alone. With your elite team of companions assembled, you'll set off on a much powerful version of the Normandy (spaceship) to seek out the culprits, to make them pay for what they have done and to save as many survivors as you can.Featuring the same depth when it comes to character customization - perhaps even more so, this game has removed the inland exploring and mineral extracting aspect and replaced it with a probe-based planet scanning system where you will scan planets to identify mineral rich locations and then send probes to do all the collecting for you. Interestingly, some planets also have special encounters with their own side-stories that are entirely optional. The gameplay itself is still pretty well-designed but of course, it slightly pales in comparison to the incredibly rich storyline this game has to offer.
If you have enjoyed any one of the core Mass Effect trilogy, then you'll want to at least play them all so you can get the whole story. After all, having a rich, decision-based storyline is the main selling feature of this franchise. And of course, Commander Shepard him/herself recommends this game, so who are you to say no to the legendary Commander Shepard?
