Kingdom of the Dead vs Max Payne 3
Kingdom of the Dead
Kingdom of the Dead is an action-packed, first-person shooter inspired by the timeless and iconic game, Doom, that puts you in the shoes of Agent Chamberlain, a professor-turned-Army General of a secret government program known only as “Gatekeeper”. Your goal? To foil Death’s evil plans to take over the world by closing all the Gates of Death and defeating all his minions, both big and small.Now, Kingdom of the Dead may be inspired by Doom but it offers a different kind of experience. This doesn’t mean that the game’s bad – in fact, the game’s pretty fun to play as long as you aren’t trying to compare it with other renowned faster-paced shooters and enjoy the game as it is. Price-wise, the game’s a pretty good deal for the amount of content it offers.
However, there are some issues that the game really needs to work out, such as the weapons balancing issue and players or enemies getting stuck to objects or the environment that the developers should really patch up as soon as they can.
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!
