EVE Online vs Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell: Blacklist
EVE Online
EVE Online is a space simulation/ action MMO game that is among the most talked about game of all time when it comes epic space battles and deep "political" rifts between factions and guilds. In fact, the game has a social aspect that's so intricate - almost web-like - connecting every single player together that sometimes results in a melting pot that unfortunately boiled over... and that's when massive wars involving thousands of players and their spacecrafts erupt!Featuring immersive and rich lore as well as the whole universe for you to explore, the game is not all dogfights in space either - you can actually build a mining empire by excavating and trading minerals or become a cunning space pirate and ambush passing traders and their laden cargo too.
No other game does the space game genre justice than EVE Online. It can be rather complicated and somewhat daunting for a new player to start in the game, but once you got into the groove, you'll realize how brilliant this game is.
Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell: Blacklist
Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell: Blacklist is the latest game under the Splinter Cell franchise and it is possibly the best one yet. As opposed to the more disappointing Conviction, Blacklist manages to combine the best of both the original and Conviction titles and added in all the features that players have complained the sequel lacked, including actual stealth-based gameplay where you can avoid an enemy instead of forcing you to engage him, as well as performing non-lethal takedowns.As usual, you'll have access to an arsenal of impressive gadgets which does make your job a whole lot easier, but this time around, certain unique enemies are able to counter your devices, forcing you to come up with new alternative plans rather than simply sticking to the "distract-and-take out" routine. This is very unlike Conviction where the gadgets had made the game too easy.
The storyline is also pretty good since the protagonist, Sam Fisher, now has free reign to do what it takes to take down a group of terrorists called The Engineers and their ultimate terror attack plan to launch escalating attacks on US interests around the world, codenamed Blacklist. Your mission? Flush out their leader and take him down.
Aside fromt he campaing, the game has cooperative missions that you can play with friends online as well. However, the servers have long since been taken down and thus, you either have to play those coop missions alone - it's possible, thankfully - or you can try LAN.
