Homefront vs Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Extraction
Homefront
Homefront lets you join the Resistance that's fighting against the bitter, ruthless and overwhelming armies of the Greater Korea Republic for the freedom of an occupied USA using guerrilla tactics. Experience an explosive first-person shooter gameplay as well as immersive vehicular combat in addition to experiencing the compelling story of the devastating cost of war penned by renowned author John Milius through interactive cut scenes. The graphics in the Homefront is also very well-done, presenting a bleak-looking landscape of abandoned and ruined structures, shopping malls-turned-detention centers, and walled towns filled with zombie-like people who just shamble around while the invaders stood guard with their rifles at the ready. Interestingly, Homefront even provides players with a large-scaled multiplayer mode where armies of different sides clash in an epic combat, though there aren't enough players around to get a match going.So, although the multiplayer aspect of the game is literally dead, the gameplay might be a tad bit too linear (invisible walls and the like) and that there are some glitches and bugs, Homefront still has an amazing campaign that will see you fighting for the independence of the USA against its Greater Korea Republic oppressors. It is worth the purchase, especially if you can get it at a discount.
Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Extraction
Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Extraction has you face the deadliest threat Team Rainbow has to deal with: a mutating, alien parasite known as the Archeaens. You’ll drop into the dangerous containment zones and deal with the extraterrestrial threat with a team of three players. Missions range from gathering samples, intelligence and extracting data from computers. They all have one thing in common, though, which is engaging hordes of the infected, as well as the aliens themselves. In typical Rainbow Six fashion, you’ll battle aliens using a massive arsenal of weapons, equipment, and other gear.Players in Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six: Extraction will go on incursions in sub-areas of a massive map. They’ll have to deal with enemies and objectives that are procedurally generated, meaning no mission is similar. Moreover, the Archeaen aliens have different variants, each with abilities of their own; these range from spikers that can throw spikes and rooters that are more durable than their peers. Compared to its famous counterpart, Siege, Extraction is a slower-paced game where you’ll have to deal with enemies slowly and meticulously instead of explosive firefights.
Overall, Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six: Extraction is a vastly different Rainbow Six experience, but nevertheless, it deserves a good, long look. So yes, it’s best to start going on incursions and stop the alien threat from reaching its peak!
