Dungeon Siege 3 vs Earthbound
Dungeon Siege 3
Dungeon Siege 3 is the third installment of the popular dungeon crawling game, Dungeon Siege. Unlike its previous games, the game deviates from its usual formula and provide players with a lot more flashy action as well as an amazing skill set along with tactical dodges, blocks and buffs. With drastically improved graphics, everything in the game looks and feels a lot immersive. The storyline in this game, where you play the leader of the remaining band of Legionnaires, is quite decent as well albeit a bit generic (the usual "save the world from evil" sort).However, like many have noted, plenty of its features fall a bit short despite the attempt to innovate the franchise. There are just scores of other games at this point that have done everything it tries to do with much better success. In fact, many have bemoaned the fact that the Dungeon Siege series has been ruined by this latest sequel. Whether this is true or not for you, we can't really say, but if you're still interested to try this game out, do go ahead. Well, the game at least have a co-op mode now though.
Earthbound
Earthbound is a rather unique RPG featuring a group of four kids with amazing superpowers, namely Ness, Paula, Jeff and Poo, and a nefarious alien race that is hellbent on causing unspeakable destruction on Earth. Help them battle the swarm of monsters, aliens and even dinosaurs that are unleashed upon the by the powerful Giygas. Travel through various landscapes in hopes of finding and confronting the ultimate manifestation of evil to save the world from certain apocalyptic event. Learn more about each of these kids as they own personal stories, as well as funny quirks, gradually unfold as you progress in the game.In addition to its story-driven gameplay, Earthbound is an adventure-themed RPG that manages to evoke a feeling that is a mixture of dread, mainly due to the gravity of the situation these kids are in; and hilarity - these kids can be quite amusing. It'll give you a game experience like no other, that's for sure!
