Fallout 2
Fallout 2 is the next exciting sequel to one of the world's largest post-apocalyptic-themed RPG franchise, Fallout. Featuring the franchise's iconic open world where you are free to do whatever you like (you can opt to not follow the storyline as well), this sequel is jam-packed with even more varied characters, creatures and storylines that brings out the humanity in its players as they traverse the vast wasteland.As usual, the game provides players with in-depth character progressions in the form of its hallmark S.P.E.C.I.A.L. traits system along with the range of improvable skills that are often critical to ensure your survival in the harsh post-fallout world.
Fallout 2 doesn't really deviate much from the original first game, perhaps mainly because the developers are trying to play it safe, but it is still a great game to play.
S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call of Pripyat
S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call of Pripyat is the third and final installment of the pretty successful survival-horror first-person shooter franchise, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Assume the role of Agent Alexander Degtyarev, a undercover modern-day treasure hunter, a "stalker", as you once again venture into the vicinity of the highly-contiminated zone of the ill-fated Chernobyl nuclear explosion in 1986 in hopes of finding out what happened to the five military helicopters that went missing around the area. The game is as brilliantly creepy as ever with the addition of new yet equally gruesome monsters as well as a world environment that's built based on real-life photos captured in the exclusion zone. The survival aspect of the game has also been revamped with the addition of a sleep function, a new A-life system and emissions that can influence the game environment.There is even a free play mode after you've completed all the main quests, as well as a slew of side quests that you can pick up and do. Interestingly, the game has a Battle Royale-like multiplayer component that can support up to 32 players, has four different game modes along with multiple maps.
S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call of Pripyat has been hailed as the best S.T.A.L.K.E.R game yet, and obivously, it is for good reasons. If you think you'll enjoy playing this, you might be interested to get the S.T.A.L.K.E.R bundle which includes all 3 games.
