Far Cry 5 vs Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Wildlands
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).
Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Wildlands
Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Wildlands is the first open world Ghost Recon game and it does not disappoint! Featuring a gorgeous and expansive map of Bolivia that's actually based on the actual terrain, the game offers players a chance to not only avenge undercover DEA agent, Rick Sandoval's untimely death, but also to liberate the subjugated people there from the Santa Blanca, a massive cartel that has wrestled the control of a country through all means necessary where it has a completely free rein in.Similar to most Ghost Recon games, you'll need to tactically approach a target objective or mission be it to obtain critical and damaging information on an underboss or to help the rebels, who are your allies, to spread their call-to-arms. You'll also have a ton of tools at your disposal, ranging from drones to flashbangs to rebel support. There are even various modes of transport be it on land, on water or in the skies for you to use as you travel across picturesque landscapes.
The best part though is that being an open world game, you are free to decide how you'll want to go about completing most objectives - guns all blazing like Rambo or a more stealthier method like an assassin. In fact, you can also play this game cooperatively with up to 3 of your friends and coordinate with them through the game's chat system or quick chat options.
Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Wildlands has managed to completely divert the traditional game design that most Ghost Recon games are based on and from the many rave reviews, apparently this major change is very well-received by both hardcore fans and critics alike. If you enjoy Ghost Recon games or generally open world shooters like Far Cry, then you should really give this game a try.
