GRIP: Combat Racing vs Mafia III
GRIP: Combat Racing
GRIP: Combat Racing is a sci-fi-themed battle racing game that features the iconic and seemingly gravity-defying gameplay of Rollcage where players can race not only on the ground but also on the ceiling and anywhere in between. Offering a fleet of customizable race cars, a ton of game modes, and an intense and incredibly-addictive gameplay, this game aims to ignite a new heyday of battle racers, much like what PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds did for the battle royale genre, and possibly create a new niche in the eSports market for competitive battle racing.Without a doubt, GRIP: Combat Racing is a worthy spiritual successor to Rollcage. The game makes full use of the monster game engine, graphics and effects that current technology can offer, and one-up the classic in every possible way. The game will be available on PC (Steam) and consoles (Xbox and PS4) come November 6th.
Mafia III
Mafia III is the long-awaited second sequel to the popular mafia-themed action-shooter game, Mafia. Set in the 1968 after the Vietnam War, the game casts you into the role of Lincoln Clay, a Vietnam veteran who had his entire surrogate family, the black mob, wiped out by the Italian Mafia. Vowing revenge for your family, you'll need to build a new mafia from the ground up and bring the fight to the Italian mob. It is either you or them and there is no in-between.Similar to the previous, the game has the same brilliant gun fights, hand-to-hand melee combat as well as heart-pounding car chases with cops and rival mobs alike. You can even choose how you approach a mission the way you like due to the open world nature of the virtual city you'll be roaming around in. Of course, being the leader of a mafia, you will also need to make some hard decisions when deciding who to promote and who to let go as "a necessary casualty". One thing for sure, you'll do whatever it takes to avenge your brothers.
Despite some bugs and glitches, Mafia III is still a great sequel that fans of the series will most certainly enjoy. It still retains its deep gritty feel and the plot, although somewhat cliche (see: Saints Row), is good enough to keep the game going.
