Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning vs The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth
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!
The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth
The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth is not the sequel to the popular indie Rogue-like game, The Binding of Isaac. Instead, this Rebirth version is simply a remake of the game featuring enhanced graphics, a better game engine, a more polished artwork as well as cleaner visual effects. The gameplay is still basically the game, with the same depressing storyline and the same crazy level of replayability. However, this time around, the game offers players the possibly of playing co-op (2 players) in addition to better support for controllers (mainly because the game is, unlike the previous, available on Xbox and Playstation), a bunch of achievements, and a long list of unique characters for its co-op mode.If you've loved The Binding of Isaac, you might want to grab The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth just for the co-op mode and the overall better gaming experience.
