Point Blank: Strike vs World of Tanks: Blitz
Point Blank: Strike
Point Blank: Strike is the mobile version of Nexon's popular PC-based MMOFPS game, Point Blank. Similar to its PC counterpart, the game looks just like the original, with tons of classic Point Blank maps (Bunker, Burning Hall and Crackdown), weapons, avatars, and game modes (Team Deathmatch, Demolition, Emblem Match, AI Battle, etc) painstakingly recreated on the mobile platform, offering players a much better FPS experience.The controls, however, will have to be changed due to the lack of a keyboard and mouse, but the changes made are pretty okay so far, allowing players to enjoy intense and thrilling FPS action without too huge of a shift from other FPS apps in either GooglePlay or the AppStore... though there are still some bits that could be improved on.
Point Blank: Strike aims to bring Point Blank to the mobile platform and I've got to say, Nexon did a pretty swell job. As mentioned, there are still some bugs to knock out, but generally, playing Point Blank: Strike feels so much like you're playing Point Blank on mobile and that's all the matters!
World of Tanks: Blitz
World of Tanks: Blitz is the so-called mobile version of one of the world's most popular tank MMO game, World of Tanks (WoT). Due to being a mobile game, the gameplay in World of Tanks: Blitz feels a tad bit more arcade-like and much more fast-paced as compared to the original. However, similar to WoT, the game offers players a wide range of tanks of varying make and models as well as capabilities and roles on the battlefield. Like Hearthstone, the game also allows cross platform gaming where players using iOS, Android, Mac and Windows players can participate with each other, though admittedly, playing on mobile might turn out to be a disadvantage and the whole battle may feel less realistic.In some way, World of Tanks: Blitz can be a nice and easy way for new players to experience the fun that the realistic tank battles in WoT can bring, but if they realized that they enjoyed the game a lot, then these players might want to consider downloading and installing the tens of gigabytes of data that World of Tanks comes with for a much more engaging and naturally, realistic experience.
