Mafia III vs Prince of Persia
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.
Prince of Persia
Prince of Persia is the whole new action-adventure game inspired by the highly acclaimed platform game of the same name. The game has been upgraded to fit with modern times and tastes - it features a brand new Prince, a non-linear storyline which unfolds , a vast open world for you to explore, various acrobatics, combat styles and skill sets, and even a helpful new AI-controlled ally who possess magical powers, Elika. Prince of Persia is realized in a rather unique art style that makes its illustrations look almost comic-like, much like the graphics in the Borderlands series.Prince of Persia is definitely not the same as its classic counterpart though it does retain many of the core concepts which had made the latter such a hit among gamers back then. The game plays out a lot like Assassin's Creed or any other parkour-oriented games so if you enjoy this sort of games, you'll love Prince of Persia.
