Halo Wars vs OGame
Halo Wars
Halo Wars is the MMORTS spin-off that was inspired by the popular sci0fi shooter franchise, Halo. However, unlike a shooter, this time around you can choose to side with either the Covenant or the UNSC as they raise armies and battle each other on the battlefield. The game feels a lot like any other great MMORTS games, like Starcraft, but although the game supports keyboard controls, you might still want to plug in a controller because... well Halo is an XBox-exclusive series and as you might expect, its spin-offs are pretty much the same thing.The best part though is its multiplayer aspect. You can choose to play cooperatively with friends against a super strong AI in the campaign or you can go online and engage in intense, action-packed warfare with other players from all over the world through the versus game mode. However, a quick note though, waiting for its random matchmaking to find an opponent will take quite some time. So, if possible, go and meet your fellow players and add a couple of them as friends. At least when you want to play a game, you won't have to wait too long for one.
OGame
OGame may look very simple for a browser-based, space-themed MMO game, but it has plenty of fun features in store for you regardless of whether you are a hardcore player or a casual one. The game has been around for roughly more than a decade now, a fact which is testament to its appeal to the gaming community.The premise of this MMORPG is quite simple. You are a colonizer. You land your troops and society into a planet of your choosing, and then it is your job to mine that planet for resources to support your forces’ colonization and settlements. In addition, you have to manage those resources to both feed and support your fledgling settlements while also transforming it militarily until it becomes a force to reckon with.
OGame is definitely an ideal game for those who want to play an MMO without having to spend too much time on it. Best of all, you only need to sign up with your email and you're in!
