HAWK vs Resogun
HAWK
HAWK is a rather new, mobile arcade shooter game that pays homage to the glorious arcade days of the 90s where games like Strikers 1945, Raiden DX and even Galaga dominated arcade centers worldwide. Featuring an exciting and challenging gameplay, you'll pilot your aircraft through various airspace in an effort to defeat the overwhemling armada of the tyrannical Autocrats as well as the massive robots that they build. As you progress, you'll get to reoutfit your aircraft with a variety of upgrades for your guns, shields and boosters in order to be able to take on tougher enemies, but unfortunately, the game can be quite grindy since you'll need plenty of resources just to get an upgrade. That's not even including the upgrades you need for your BroBots - the two AI-controlled companion aircrafts that will help you in battle. That said, HAWK also has over 130 levels of outstanding arcade shooter experience that comes in three difficulty levels.As surprising as this may sound, there isn't as many great arcade shooters on mobile than you'd expect. However, HAWK is definitely one of the better ones. It may be grindy due to its freemium element, but gameplay-wise, the game can sate your arcade-style shooter fix for sure.
Resogun
Resogun is a brilliant side-scrolling (in a spherical sense) arcade-shooter for the PlayStation platform. Being a shoot-'em-up, you can definitely expect a bullet-hell gameplay where you'll need to take on wave after wave of relentless enemies. The arsenal of weapons at your disposal is quite diverse as well, giving you access to cool lasers and even destructive nova-bombs that can level hordes of enemies at one go. The game also has a really nice sci-fi theme, brilliant graphics, and of course, superb sound.The best and most unique aspect of this game though is that each item, be it a enemy fighter, boss or simply an object, in the game is built using voxels and hence, you can satisfyingly blast your enemies into millions of bits and pieces. You can even take on challenging bosses cooperatively with friends in this game or test your mettle in the game's endless Survival mode, Demolition mode, Arcade mode and also the level-based Score Attack mode.
Resogun is among the best arcade-shooters that you can play on PlayStation 3 and 4 as well as PSVita, and if this sort of game is kind of your thing, you'll definitely not regret getting this game.
