Argo vs Counter-Strike
Argo
Argo is hardcore tactical MMOFPS that is, according its developers, a free total conversion of the popular Arma game franchise, specifically Arma 3. Although the franchise itself as not reached mainstream popularity like Counter-Strike, Battlefield, and Call of Duty, it has a niche and dedicated fanbase that you'll probably see a lot of while playing this game.Featuring a three competitive game modes and one 10-vs-AI cooperative mode, the game is set in the Mediterranean island of Malden that houses a range of combat zones perfectly designed to fit each mode. The game even has a built-in 3D scenario editor that allows you to create your own missions and other content for Argo players to enjoy!
If you love military-themed shooters, Argo is a pretty solid game to play. After all, you'll get to experience a bit of the famous "Arma gameplay" for free.
Counter-Strike
Counter-Strike is one of the the pioneers of the team-based multiplayer, action-shooter game genre and it is thanks to these games that we now have games like Combat Arms or even Blacklight. That said, you probably have heard of Counter-Strike so I'll keep this simple. The game places you into a team - either as Terrorists or Counter-Terrorists - before the match and your team will be given an objective to do, be it taking out enemy sites, rescue hostages or simply taking out the other team. For the "vanilla" version of Counter-Strike, the multiplayer community is pretty nice overall and definitely not as toxic as in the latest installment.However, the graphics can be rather painfully outdated in this game. So, unless you are feeling nostalgic or if you don't really mind old graphics, then Counter-Strike might just be the game for you.
