Mad Max vs PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG)
Mad Max
Mad Max lets you play as the enigmatic lone warrior, Mad Max himself, as you roam the brutal post-apocalyptic world to not only survive against the crazy bandits but also to take down the warlord. With a strong focus on insane vehicular combat, you'll need to scour the land for salvagable supplies and items so you could build the ultimate "death machine".As you might expect of a Mad Max-inspired game, there isn't any stealth elements to it although its gameplay may remind some of Shadow of Mordor, without all the magic stuff of course, as the game has a combo-based melee combat in addition to the mayhem you can cause with your guns and vehicles. Not to mention, the content in this game is simply huge, much like Ghost Recon Wildlands, though the game might not be as tactical or as team-oriented as the latter.
Mad Max is definitely the game to play if you're a fan of the franchise or enjoys open world shooters. Do give it a try!
PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG)
PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG) is a battle royale game that features a vast open world island filled with plenty of resources to scavenge. Being a battle royale game, everyone will start off on an equal playing field. Through clever scavenging and picking the correct fights will you end up with the last few survivors to battle it out for the winning spot as the map will gradually shrink, pushing survivors closer and closer together.In some way, Player Unknown's Battlegrounds reminds me of Hunger Games, albeit a much more brutal Hunger Games that you can actually play in, and I'd actually like that.
However, the game is still pretty poorly optimized long after its release as an early access game, and well, the game has drawn plenty of flak since the devs have started banning anybody who killed a streamer who cries foul due to this thing called "Stream sniping", giving rise to a pretty bad and toxic atmosphere where streamers are players whom you literally can't kill in fear of being banned for no reason other than getting the upper hand on a streamer. Worst thing is the game's not exactly a free-to-play, so if you do get banned, that's literally money down the drain.
So, even if the game is as epic a battle royale game as it is, you should keep these downsides in mind going in. Gameplay-wise, the game is amazing, but you will need to be wary of its increasingly toxic community (both players and the team managing the PR side of the game).
Its developer, BlueHole, has recently (as of March 2018) released the mobile versions of the game, PUBG Mobile. The mobile version of PUBG is available on both Android and iOS.
