Half Life 2 vs Standoff 2
Half Life 2
Half Life 2 is the exciting sequel to the original Half Life game and is also the inspiration for a new Half-Life-based spin-off series. The game took the suspense, the challenge and the momentum of the first game and added in a much improved and realistic graphics and responsiveness that removes a lot of the clunkiness that old games often experience.The story also continues where it was left off before, with the crowbar-wielding scientist Gordon Freeman who now finds himself in an Earth that is not only infested with aliens but is also slowly decimated by them. He now needs to make amends for the incident back in Black Mesa and at least save the people that he cares about.
Half Life 2 is a great sequel, but it is unfortunately the last... at least for the Half Life series. On the bright side, you can somewhat continue the storyline through the spin-off games Half Life 2: Episode 1 and 2.
Standoff 2
Standoff 2 is an intense yet entertaining MMOFPS game where you get to either play for the terrorists or the special forces in a team-based shootout. The game features several maps as well as 3 exciting and competitive game modes, namely "Deathmatch", "Defuse the bomb", "Arms race" and "Tournaments". As you might expect, the game also offers a ton of fancy and cool skins for your weapons and a way for you to trade them with other players. The game even has an in-depth social system that allows players to message each other, use both text and voice chat to communicate while in-game, and add other players as friends.If you have always enjoyed playing Counter-Strike or games like it, Standoff 2 is basically a really well-polished version of that exact same game which you can play on your mobile devices while you're on the go.
