Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes vs Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor
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.
Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor
Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor is one of the best games when it comes to the Lord of the Rings franchise... and yes, as much as we've enjoyed it, this means this game is way better than Lord of the Rings Online. Featuring a gameplay that may bring to mind other action-oriented RPGs like Assassin's Creed, Batman: Arkham and even Prince of Persia, Shadow of Mordor is a game that rewards stealthy attacks and yet if you prefer going after your opponents head-on, you can. Of course, the game is literally covered - oozing, in fact - with sweet, honey-like lore from the Lord of the Rings universe, and its graphics and soundtracks are simply superb.That said, the best part in this game is how everything major thing you do has an impact on the virtual world and this is best seen through the game's revolutionary Nemesis system. As the game progresses, you'll also unlock a wide variety of really cool abilities, one of which will allow you to mind-control orcs and turn them into your very own personal army.
Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor is perhaps one of the best RPGs out there that, despite its not-so-short 3 years on the market, the game has garnered overwhemingly positive reviews from both critics and fans alike.
