Mafia III vs Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes
Mafia III
Mafia III is the long-awaited second sequel to the popular mafia-themed action-shooter game, Mafia. Set in the 1968 after the Vietnam War, the game casts you into the role of Lincoln Clay, a Vietnam veteran who had his entire surrogate family, the black mob, wiped out by the Italian Mafia. Vowing revenge for your family, you'll need to build a new mafia from the ground up and bring the fight to the Italian mob. It is either you or them and there is no in-between.Similar to the previous, the game has the same brilliant gun fights, hand-to-hand melee combat as well as heart-pounding car chases with cops and rival mobs alike. You can even choose how you approach a mission the way you like due to the open world nature of the virtual city you'll be roaming around in. Of course, being the leader of a mafia, you will also need to make some hard decisions when deciding who to promote and who to let go as "a necessary casualty". One thing for sure, you'll do whatever it takes to avenge your brothers.
Despite some bugs and glitches, Mafia III is still a great sequel that fans of the series will most certainly enjoy. It still retains its deep gritty feel and the plot, although somewhat cliche (see: Saints Row), is good enough to keep the game going.
Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes
Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes is the highly anticipated fifth installment of the popular Metal Gear Solid game fracnhise and best yet, this is the first MGS title to offer complete gameplay freedom through its open world design. It still thankfully retains the best bits of its series, such as its stealth-heavy gameplay (but of course, you can opt to go in guns blazing if you wish), and an exciting central story mode along with plenty of side-ops missions. The player interface has been reworked as well to provide a more clutter-free design. Let's not forget about the game's incredibly immersive graphics and sound.Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes is an excellent sequel to an excellent game series. However, if you're thinking - holy hell, they've made a PC version? Well, you should really know that the PC version is simply like a buy-to-play demo consisting of one map, one main mission along with 5 side missions, and 2 difficulty levels. Due to this, you might want to get the playstation version (full-game) instead.
