Borderlands 2 vs Fallout 3
Borderlands 2
Borderlands 2 is the highly anticipated sequel to the popular first game, Borderlands. This time around, the game brings a whole different storyline, starring the charismatic and cunning but equally as whacky CEO of Hyperion, Handsome Jack as the villain. Featuring all new characters/vault hunters and classes, you'll get to dive, once again, into the world of Pandora. Armed with more weapons that you can use, you're hell-bent on exacting your revenge on Jack and will shoot-down any enemy creature or people alike that stand in your way. There are even more loot to be had too - there are shields, grenades, relics, class mods and more for you to loot and then use to augment your character.If you love Borderlands, you'll love Borderlands 2 even more! It has been dubbed as the best game in the series mainly because of the huge amount of innovation it brings and this is a sentiment that we express as well... sorry Borderlands: The Pre-sequel! If you get the chance, you should really check this game out!
Fallout 3
Fallout 3 is the epic second sequel in the Fallout series, one of the world's most highly acclaimed RPGs of all time. Why is this sequel so special? Well, in addition to the many iconic features that had rocketed this game franchise to fame (and a ton of profit), Fallout 3 took a huge leap forward by turning its previously isometric/2.5D graphics into glorious 3D with a nice first- or third-person view. The characters in the game also got a nice revamp and now has more realistic expressions and behaviour that will astound you! These major changes added a whole lot of immersion to the game, allowing players to truly be able to experience what it's like to be dumped into a post-apocalyptic wasteland and given the freedom to do whatever they like.However, this brilliant new change somewhat dulls in comparison to the game's amazing V.A.T.S. which allow you to literally pause during combat and decide which body part you want to aim your gun at. Each part will have a percentage showing the chance of success. Best yet, you can even queue up multiple shots, allowing you to sometimes take out multiple enemies at once!
Fallout 3 is possibly as revolutionary as the original first game, though there are some players that have some qualms about the V.A.T. system. If you'd like to play a Fallout game that's as close to the latest game (Fallout 4) as possible, then Fallout 3 or even Fallout New Vegas are great game choices for you.
