Left4Dead vs The Last of Us
Left4Dead
Left4Dead is among one of the very first popular zombie-themed shooters that has evolved from being simply a single player experience into a multiplayer game that almost every 90s gamer have played in LAN sessions or at cyber cafes... or have at least heard of it. Developed by Valve, the game features a wide variety of zombies, each with their own special abilities; relatable characters and an urgency to reach the next safe house due to the waves after waves of zombies that make you feel like you are actually trying to fight for your own life! There are plenty of interesting locations and unique scenarios for you to enjoy, allowing players to break the monotony of fending off endless hordes of zombies.Once you're done with the campaign, there is even a multiplayer aspect which will allow you to play with your friends against another team of your friends as either the human survivors or as the ravenous zombies. Admittedly, the multiplayer mode is the perfect addition to the game as it drastically expanded the game's lifespan.
All in all, Left4Dead is the first of a hugely popular series of games that many are still clamoring for a sequel until today. The graphics and gameplay may feel rather outdated in this day and age but if you have a soft spot for "old but gold" games, this is one of the more modern classics that you should really try.
The Last of Us
The Last of Us is one of the most critically-acclaimed adventure game, mainly because of the incredibly well-written and paced as well as emotionally-charged storyline that purportedly can make most grown men weep. Set in a post-apocalyptic world where infected humans or hostile survivors roam abound, you'll play as Joel, a mercenary who was hired to smuggle a 14-year-old girl, Ellie, out from the military quarantine zone. However, as you might expect, things went wrong and you'll find yourself making the journey the gruelling way instead.The Last of Us has won multiple awards and nominations since its release and has been touted as one of the most well-made console game for 2013. This is not at all surprising considering how well the game was made and how amazing both the graphics and the sound complement each other.
