Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning vs Soulcalibur II
Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning
Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning is an amazing action-based RPG which we frankly think was one of those RPG gems that were somehow overlooked. Even with its age in mind, the game still does well to cater to fans of RPGs today, giving them a memorable storyline based on a universe created by none other than the legend in fantasy novels, R.A. Salvatore; a host of interesting characters to interact with, and a massive open world to explore. Character customization is pretty extensive here, allowing you to change your character's class, skills and abilities to fit your play style. You can change your character's equipment as well.The amazing part about this game, aside from its immersive storyline and world, is how seemlessly it has managed to integrate magic-wielding with swordplay (it doesn't exactly have to be swords though) in its exhilarting action combat. It does make you feel like you are in the shoes of your character.
Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning may not be a "Skyrim"-sort of game, but it's incredibly in-depth, able to offer you hundreds of hours of play time at the very least, especially if you are determined to complete every side quest and explore every corner of the beautiful world. It's definitely worth every cent you spent on it!
Soulcalibur II
Soulcalibur II takes place 4 years after the fall of Cervantes and takes you on a path of discovery, where you are introduced to the holy sword Soul Calibur. Here the evil that is Soul Edge has been stopped, and the brave fighters put an end to Nightmare, but then once more evil strikes and the shards of the sword rain down upon the ground. Different people find them, and either hunger for their power and the souls to control it, or seek to destroy the evil once and for all.With several new features, and 4 additional characters there is a lot to enjoy in this second installment. Instead of a ring out you now have walls, and dedicated wall maneuvers to use during the fights. Join the adventure, play as one of the amazing characters and discover the new unique styles of combat available.
