Borderlands vs Half Life
Borderlands
Borderlands is one of the craziest RPG/FPS games ever, not only because of its over-the-top characters and their dialogues but also the ridiculously whacky storyline. Join in the insanity by playing as one of four trigger-happy mercs and engage in frantic shootouts with a wide (dungeon crawlers' definition of "wide") arsenal of weapons ranging from rocket-launching shotguns to SMGs spitting out fire rounds that literally set your enemies ablaze! You can also enjoy some intense vehicular combat if guns are just too "mainstream" for you. Team with up to 4 friends as you traverse the vast, lawless and barren planet of Pandora in search of The Vault... or you can just play solo - the game doesn't mind either way.Even Borderlands' bold art style add loads to elevate the game's craziness meter to a whole new level. The game's just all around fun especially for fans of shooter games that have a huge dose of absurdity and whimsy in it and if you like the sound of this game, then Borderlands is a game you'll need to play!
Half Life
Half Life is the first game in the famous Half Life series that has gained a certain amount of infamy among gamers mainly because Valve has refused their fans' request to create a Half Life 3. That being said, the game itself is pretty old - released back in 1998 - and it was a shining gem of a game back in its time because of its amaing gameplay and engaging storyline. Unlike any other games in the 90s, Half Life manages to combine action and adventure along with a what-was-back-then a realistic world into one amazing package. The game also has a multiplayer mode that turns the game's many maps into arenas for you to play against your friends.Half Life is one of "those games" that almost every gamer (midcore and above) would at least have heard of before. It's as classic as classic games go. If you enjoy old-school games, Half Life is probably one of the first few games you'd want to play.
