Darksiders vs Far Cry 3 - Blood Dragon
Darksiders
Darksiders is an action-adventure game with a rather dark theme. In this game, you'll assume the role of one of the Horsemen of the Apocalypse, War. Accused of causing a war between heaven and hell, you have been indicted for your crimes. However, you are given one last chance to return to Earth to search for the true culprits behind the bloodbath and perhaps prove your innocence. Being a Horseman, you have supernatural abilities in addition to an arsenal of weapons that will come in handy when you are hacking and slashing your way across a Hell-controlled Earth. There are tons of ways for you to develop your character as well, giving you the opportunity to customize War to fit your play style.Although the combat is satisfying, the gameplay can be somewhat repetitive after some time since all you need to do is to simply rack up your combos. The creatures and bosses you'll fighting against aren't too difficult either, making things rather boring after awhile. That being said, the game is pretty worth its price only for its epic Diablo-like story alone.
Far Cry 3 - Blood Dragon
Far Cry 3 - Blood Dragon is a pretty fun standalone spin-off from the usual Far Cry series, mainly because it has a rather ridiculous but awesome-looking graphics (the game is set in a super-modern 80s, back when neon lights are very "in"), and partly because the game exaggerated the usual insanity that the franchise provides.In this game, you play as the Rambo-like Cyber Commando, Sergeant Rex Colt who is on a very straightforward mission - protect the girl, kill all enemies and save the world. The variety of baddies that you'll encounter in this game is simply incredible, ranging from cyborgs and mutants to aliens and Terminators. It's also nice that this game uses feedback for Far Cry 3 and improved plus streamlined its upgrade system.
If you're looking for a game that will throw you back to the VHS era, Far Cry 3 - Blood Dragon is the game you'll want to play.
