Halo Wars vs Watch Dogs
Halo Wars
Halo Wars is the MMORTS spin-off that was inspired by the popular sci0fi shooter franchise, Halo. However, unlike a shooter, this time around you can choose to side with either the Covenant or the UNSC as they raise armies and battle each other on the battlefield. The game feels a lot like any other great MMORTS games, like Starcraft, but although the game supports keyboard controls, you might still want to plug in a controller because... well Halo is an XBox-exclusive series and as you might expect, its spin-offs are pretty much the same thing.The best part though is its multiplayer aspect. You can choose to play cooperatively with friends against a super strong AI in the campaign or you can go online and engage in intense, action-packed warfare with other players from all over the world through the versus game mode. However, a quick note though, waiting for its random matchmaking to find an opponent will take quite some time. So, if possible, go and meet your fellow players and add a couple of them as friends. At least when you want to play a game, you won't have to wait too long for one.
Watch Dogs
Watch Dogs is the sort of game that's not only fun to play but also give us an insight of a potentially dystopian future. This game slips you into the shoes of hacker extraordinaire, Aiden Pierce, whose criminal past had finally caught up to him, resulting in a terrible family tragedy. Now, he's on the hunt for the culprits behind it all and he has the Chicago's city network and its wealth of information in the palm of his hands. There are over 30 different weapons for you to use along with more than 65 vehicles to explore the massive city in. The choices you make in the game will also affect the virtual environment and the people around you, possibly even creating an unexpected ripple effect. This game is a multiplayer game as well, providing players with cooperative gameplay or an open world multiplayer action.Watch Dogs is one of the best new game series to have emerged with a fresh new game concept and fun game mechanics to play with. If you think you'd enjoy hackng and shooting all rolled into a single game, then you will definitely enjoy playing Watch Dogs.
