Command & Conquer 4: Tiberian Twilight
Command & Conquer 4: Tiberian Twilight is set in 2062, after the third Tiberium War and sees Earth on the brink of destruction, Tiberium is evolving and spreading so fast it will make the planet uninhabitable within a few years. There are plans in place, and Kane and the GDI must work together to save what is left. But there is opposition in the way, and it falls to you to try and battle your way to victory, and save the world.In a departure from the gameplay of the rest of the series, there are no longer resources to collect. In this game you must control more nodes than your opponent and use your resources to focus on either attack or defence. The end of the Kane saga is here, with an epic conclusion to the story and a great game in its own right there is a lot to enjoy here.
Europa Universalis IV
Europa Universalis IV is the fourth game in the award-winning Europa Universalis franchise. Similar to its predecessors, the game has everything you'd need to build your own nation from the ground up and guide it through the ages. The freedom in which you get to customize your giverning style, your nation and even your game is simply ridiculous (in a good way) and of course, the best selling point of this series is that almost everything is based on accurate historical references, be it a historical figure or an event. This time around you'll get to grow your nation over a much wider span of history, arrange royal marriages, form coalitions, support rebels in proxy wars and more. You can even cooperate with up to 32 different players to govern a single nation. The multiplayer mode apparently now has an improved chat and a new matchmaking system.Unfortunately, the major downside about this game is that the developers, Paradox Interactive, have apparently "sold-out" by adding in features that should have been in the original game into DLCs that players actually have to pay extra for, ending up spending over $200 for just a single game. Not to mention, many players have complained that the DLCs they release are priced at the same price point despite having progressively lower amount of content.
That said, the game is still an epic masterpiece and a worthy sequel to the Europa Universalis series, but the game's hardcore player base is admittedly not happy, and honestly, we wouldn't recommend getting this game unless you can get all of the DLCs dirt cheap... maybe like in a bundle.
