Mortal Kombat X vs Quake Live
Mortal Kombat X
Mortal Kombat X is the latest installment of a game franchise that's basically a spiritual sucessor of combos-based action, fighting games like Street Fighter. As opposed to the previous game, Mortal Kombat X offers a whole new generation of fighters; immersive graphics; impressive new "skins", some of which are classics; well-designed scenarios and a multiplayer mode that provides players with a variety of fun game modes. However, the multiplayer server might get a hiccup or two from time to time and as a result, you may find yourself disconnected from your matches. Because of the drastically upgraded graphics as well you may need a more pwoerful machine to run the game on or you'll experience terrible frame rates.That aside, Mortal Kombat X is definitely a brilliant and worthy addition to the Mortal Kombat series. It is simply the more superior version of the previous in so many ways. So, if you enjoy a good fighting game, this is definitely the game you'll want to get.
Quake Live
Quake Live is an epic installment of the timeless classic, Quake. Returning for an encore, Quake Live aims to cater to the fans of the fast-paced arcade shooter genre by allowing them to play against other players from all over the world in any one of the game's 100 plus arenas and dozens of game modes. Not to mention, the game is often updated with new arenas from the company behind this revival of Quake as well as from its vibrant community.Quake was once the most competitive shooters in its day and it now aims to retain its title, at least in the arcade-like shooter genre, with this iteration... and we've got to say, it is doing a really great job. The game has already dive into the eSports scene with its own tournaments and it is doing really good. If you long for the good old days for frag or be fragged, this is a game you'll want to play - in addition to Quake Champions that is.
The unfortunate thing about this game is that it was previously free-to-play but now it's not. Considering that Quake Champions is already buy-to-play, it might be good to have a free-to-play version to help convert truly interested players from playing the free version to getting the paid version. It'll just allow the franchise to tap into a whole new pool of potential buyers and players after all.
