Friday the 13th: The Game vs Vanquish
Friday the 13th: The Game
Friday the 13th: The Game is a truly terrifying third-person horror-survival game that is based on the popular horror movie, Friday the 13th. In this game, you get to play as the terror himself, Jason Voorhees, or even as one of the teen counselors. Naturally, depending on the role you play, your objective in the game would be very quite the polar opposite. Jason however has access to a range of unique abilities with will allow him to track, hunt and kill his prey, while what you'll have as a counselor is your group of six equally unlucky people.Friday the 13th: The Game not only lets you play as a survivor trying to escape from Jason, but it also lets you play as one of the most prolific killers in cinema history. If this sounds appealing to you, you will definitely want to grab the game and a couple of friends to play the game with.
Vanquish
Vanquish puts you into the shoes of government operative, Sam Gideon, who is part of the elite group of operatives that has their own Augmented Reaction Suit which give them superior firepower, superhuman speed and agility as well as a certain amount of suave as they take down groups of hostile and deadly robots. The combat system in this game is incredibly well-made and unique. Aside from having a bullet time system, it also provides players with a smooth gameplay, be it when they are performing kinetic melee moves or when they are trading gunfire with the robots.However, many players have mentioned about the flaw when it comes to weapon upgrades in this game. Unlike most games, you actually have to be equipping the correct gun type in order to pick up the upgrade cube, which randomly appears. It does provide players with the incentive to keep replaying the game but it can be pretty frustrating if you had to give up picking up a hard-earned cube because you don't have the weapon you need.
Besides this downside though, Vanquish is among the top-most third-person shooters that have excellent, well-designed mechanics. If you enjoy smooth combat and a cool and somewhat Halo-like suit, then this is definitely the game for you!
