Command & Conquer Tiberium Alliances vs Halo Wars
Command & Conquer Tiberium Alliances
Command & Conquer Tiberium Alliances is a decent MMORTS game that is based on the popular strategy game franchise, Command & Conquer. Set in the same universe as its other standalone games, Command & Conquer Tiberium Alliances provides MMO players with the ease of being able to play a version of C&C on their web browsers, though that "version" might not be something that hardcore fans of the franchise may actually like. This is mainly because of its gameplay really. Unlike its standalones, this game provides players with the tried-and-true game design that many other browser-based MMOs have used over the years which admittedly doesn't win this game any extra points. Okay, there might be a bit modification to that design but the gameplay is still, overall, rather boring... and for some, disappointingly so.That said, Command & Conquer Tiberium Alliances is still a pretty nice game for casual MMO players who are tired of the same old MMO strategy gameplays and would like to try something different for a change. Though be warned, the pace in this game can be a tad bit slow so you might need to bear with it for awhile before you can get to the more interesting stuff.
Halo Wars
Halo Wars is the MMORTS spin-off that was inspired by the popular sci0fi shooter franchise, Halo. However, unlike a shooter, this time around you can choose to side with either the Covenant or the UNSC as they raise armies and battle each other on the battlefield. The game feels a lot like any other great MMORTS games, like Starcraft, but although the game supports keyboard controls, you might still want to plug in a controller because... well Halo is an XBox-exclusive series and as you might expect, its spin-offs are pretty much the same thing.The best part though is its multiplayer aspect. You can choose to play cooperatively with friends against a super strong AI in the campaign or you can go online and engage in intense, action-packed warfare with other players from all over the world through the versus game mode. However, a quick note though, waiting for its random matchmaking to find an opponent will take quite some time. So, if possible, go and meet your fellow players and add a couple of them as friends. At least when you want to play a game, you won't have to wait too long for one.
