Dragon Age: Origins vs Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne
Dragon Age: Origins
Dragon Age: Origins is the first game in one of the most highly-acclaimed game series, Dragon Age. The game seems to combine all the great elements of a traditional RPG with an epic storyline set in a gorgeous open world that will truly put your morality and decision-making skills to the test. In some way, the game does bring to mind the immersiveness of the Fable series as you'll be able to actually mold your character's personality and morality based on every single decision you make. The host of characters in this game is pretty amazing as well. Their personalities are very well-crafted and this makes them relatable, and hence, realistic.That's not all, the game features an exciting and engaging combat system that will see you fighting enemies of all shapes and sizes... and of course, dragons. Being one of the last Grey Wardens, you also possess incredible magical powers and skills that further augments the game's melee combat. Due to the game's 3-person party-based system, the game's combat system even has a special "paused" function where you can issue individual orders to your allies for a more coordinated but equally fast-paced action combat.
Dragon Age: Origins is the sort of game that can hold its own even after years since its release. In fact, we dare say this game might already made it into the list of modern classics. If you love a rich story and a fun action RPG, this is definitely the game to buy.
Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne
Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne continues the storyline where the first game left off. Reprise your role as Max Payne himself as he tries to make peace with the tragic loss he had experienced... and failed. He still has many questions that haunt him and a femme fatale murder suspect that he met during a routine murder investigation might be the only person who can unlock the answers. Of course, the underworld is keen on keeping Max in the dark and will do whatever it needs to silent him and his new companion, perhaps once and for all.Featuring the epic and intense storytelling that had amassed a somewhat cult-like following for the game franchise, Max Payne 2 promised a story coupled with its hallmark slow-motion gameplay that will dig deep into your emotional reserves as you watch Max himself descend deeper into his own personal hell. This game is definitely a must-have for fans of the game series.
