Far Cry 5 vs Rage 2
Far Cry 5
Far Cry 5 brings you to Hope County, Montana, where a fanatical doomsday cult known as Eden's Gate has set up shop. Under the leadership of the charismatic and most definitely insane, Joseph Seed, and his enforcer-type siblings, the Heralds, the cult aims to literally hold the people of the county hostage until their perceived doomsday arrives. In this game, you'll need to ignite the embers of resistance into a full-on wildfire in an attempt to liberate the oppressed community from the grips of Joseph and his brainwashed congregation.Featuring an extensive customization system like no other, Far Cry 5 is also home to a wide range of weapons and cool "toys", including muscle cars, ATVs, planes and a whole lot more. You can even recruit mercenaries to aid you in your fight, or you can simply recruit a friend to play the game with you in its two-player co-op.
Far Cry 5 does seem to be following in the footsteps of the older Far Cry games where guns and vehicles dominate most of its gameplay. This is quite different from the latest Far Cry game which was set in the prehistoric times where you play a caveman. The game is not yet available in stores but you can pre-order the game on PS4, XBox, and Steam (PC).
Rage 2
Rage 2 is the highly-anticipated sequel to what seems to be an underrated, post-apocalyptic-themed action-shooter game. The original Rage was hailed as the ultimate combination of the dystopian world of Fallout, epic vehicular combat, a gameplay that mimics the intensity of Just Cause, and the sort of insanity which can only be characterized as Borderlands-like, and this sequel promises to deliver on all of that and more!Playing as the hero, Walker, you set off across the sun-scorched wastelands in pursuit of the nefarious Authority, but the place is massive and you'll need all the help you can get to navigate the world. This time around, you'll not only be able to drive monstrous battle vehicles; you can even take to the air in gyrocopters. Basically, if you see a vehicle, chances are you'll be able to drive or pilot it - it's that's simple.
The range of enemies (of various factions) that you'll encounter is pretty varied as well, with each featuring its own lineup of crazies, mutants and even monters. The same goes for the arsenal of futuristic weapons that you'll be able to collect and use to dish out a circus of carnage.
Rage is is currently available for pre-oreders on Bethesda's website. If you do order now, you can get an exclusive Cult of the Death God mission, which has a nice bit about the hero of the first Rage game and a chance to receive Raine’s legendary armor, the fan-favorite Settler Pistol and the new Mutant Monster Truck... if you managed to get through the hordes of mutants that is.
