Far Cry 3 - Blood Dragon vs Max Payne 3
Far Cry 3 - Blood Dragon
Far Cry 3 - Blood Dragon is a pretty fun standalone spin-off from the usual Far Cry series, mainly because it has a rather ridiculous but awesome-looking graphics (the game is set in a super-modern 80s, back when neon lights are very "in"), and partly because the game exaggerated the usual insanity that the franchise provides.In this game, you play as the Rambo-like Cyber Commando, Sergeant Rex Colt who is on a very straightforward mission - protect the girl, kill all enemies and save the world. The variety of baddies that you'll encounter in this game is simply incredible, ranging from cyborgs and mutants to aliens and Terminators. It's also nice that this game uses feedback for Far Cry 3 and improved plus streamlined its upgrade system.
If you're looking for a game that will throw you back to the VHS era, Far Cry 3 - Blood Dragon is the game you'll want to play.
Max Payne 3
Max Payne 3 is the latest sequel to the Max Payne franchise. The story in this game continue to follow Max's struggles with the tragedies and losses he experienced but this time around, he is no longer a cop but a bodyguard who is in charged of protecting the family of a billionaire real estate mogul. However, things went terribly wrong and Max finds himself in a foreign city hunting down the kidnappers and also the truth to his past. With the storyline in mind, the developers have added plenty of nice cinematic scenes to further increase the immersion of its compelling narrative.Not to mention, the game also greatly improved its slow-motion-based gameplay with the addition of the Rockstar Games' proprietary Advanced Bullet Time® and Shootdodge™ and Final Kill-cam mechanics that guarantees some epicly stylish shooting action. Every bit of the gameplay is brilliant rendered to incredible detail as well, giving the slow-motion aspect of its gameplay the kind of high quality that many have praised the game for.
Max Payne 3 is an astoundingly well-made sequel when it comes to gameplay, but many fans have noted that this game oddly lacks the noir feel that had made the franchise unique in the first place. Perhaps it is just part of the franchise's evolution to being a mainstream game, or maybe the developers just want to try something new. Regardless, if you're a fan of the Max Payne story, you might have a bit of a mixed feeling about this game. But if you're just in for the slow-motion-infused shooting action, then you won't be disappointed!
