The PlayStation 3 version also allows players to record their gameplay and upload it which allows you to share your favourite game aspects with others. This proved very popular but the feature has obviously declined in popularity over the life of the game it's still a fun idea though.
All of these features were blown out of the water with Just Cause 3 though that offered a massive boost to graphics, freedom and physics. With minimal connection to the games of the past newcomers to the Just Cause series will be best serviced by Just Cause 3. Just Cause 3 Kinguin. Bully is another action adventure that takes place in a school environment. The player plays as James "Jimmy" Hopkins, a rebel student at the fictional boarding school of Bullworth Academy.
Players are free to explore the campus and eventually the town as they complete a number of missions, side adventures, and mini-games. Through school classes, players can increase Jimmy's abilities and unlock new items. Practicing English for example allows Jimmy to talk his way in and out of situations better, while chemistry unlocks stick bombs and firecrackers. Bully is split into five chapters in which Jimmy must defeat a leader of certain clique nerds, preps etc. Combat is mostly fighting orientated but Jimmy does gain access to some school-boy type weapons including slingshots and itching powder.
Gun is a Western-themed game developed by Neversoft, with releases that cover a large number of platforms. It is very easy to get your hands on Gun regardless of your preferred gaming platform. Gun features an open-world environment and many side missions just like the GTA series. It also includes plenty of activities on the side such a poker, bounty-hunting, and cattle-herding.
The environments you will visit are also extremely varied despite the Western focus, it isn't all sand and deserts.
Money earned from these activities and side missions can be used to purchase and upgrade equipment, giving the game some RPG-depth ahead of what the GTA series has generally offered.
Combat variety is also plentiful, with sneaking, shooting, and even dynamite playing a role in your adventure. In the game you take on the role of Colton White who loses everything and decides to take vengeance against the people who turned his life upside down. This adventure really captures just how brutal the Wild West was, which is definitely the most attractive aspect of Gun. The Godfather is a series of two action-adventure games published by Electronic Arts which are based on The Godfather series and films.
The first game is often considered one of the best movie-to-video game adaptations and I definitely agree. The Godfather game even features some of the original actors from The Godfather film and follows the film and series quite closely, so fans of the series will feel right at home.
You won't feel left out if you haven't seen the movies, although I definitely recommend you do either before or after you play the game. Reviews of The Godfather game are mixed but mostly positive.
Critics praised the game for staying true and faithful to the roots of The Godfather, but the recycling of textures and graphics prevented the game from receiving top ratings. The sequel The Godfather II unfortunately did not live up to expectations. The main issues plaguing the game include poor AI, easy difficulty, and excessive bugs. But it is still a decent game experience, especially for Godfather fans.
It won't push you to your limits in terms of difficulty, and none of the bugs I ran into were game-breaking. Most were just small glitches. Of course this might not be the case for everyone.
There is also a second release in the series True Crime: New York but the game is very lack-lustre compared to the original and best avoided. True Crime is well known for its highly accurate GPS recreations of locations and its random street crime-orientated missions. Unlike GTA, True Crime focuses on the justice side of the law, with players playing as a police officer tasked with catching criminals and other police-orientated missions.
This different type of experience playing on the good side rather than the bad has proven very popular and is one of the biggest draws to the series over other options.
Players must complete various missions to move up the ranks of the police force while questionable acts will see the player fall down the ranks and eventually be exiled by the police. I really liked the scope of choice that True Crime offered for its time and the ability to play as a cop has always been a feature that has set it apart.
Crackdown is another open-world, third-person-shooter video game available for Xbox The Crackdown series has two games available in the series, released in and The idea was conceived by the creator behind Grand Theft Auto and Lemmings.
The original Crackdown features a large sandbox environment that players are free to explore after selecting one of the agents available. From here the player is tasked with defeating the head of various gangs but can do so in any order or by any means that they want.
Various actions can increase your chances of successfully taking them down, such as removing bodyguards or high-level associates to reduce their protection further. Crackdown 2 follows a similar style of gameplay but offers a larger variety of customisation options both visual and skill sets.
Driving has also been introduced into Crackdown 2, allowing for a larger map and more modes such as racing. Both Crackdown games are rated highly, however the sequel has received some heat for playing too much like the original. Scarface: The World is Yours is a video game that is intended as sequel to the movie Scarface. So if you've seen the movie and want to become a part of the world that the movie portrayed, you'll love this experience.
If you haven't seen the movie you might find that the intriguing storyline and underground setting will make you interested in seeing it. Unfortunately the PC port was filled with bugs and control system issues, so I only recommend this game to those of you who are looking for a console game. The PC port version is best avoided as it truly is awful and unplayable. The series has two games available that were released in and , both of which received strong reviews which were well deserved.
In both games the player has control of a human with various special abilities. InFamous allows the players to choose their own path through the storyline, creating plenty of options and even varied endings. The original Infamous was highly acclaimed by reviewers and is often considered on of the best PS3 games available.
The series was praised for its simple core mechanics, varied missions, and strong story. Infamous 2 received similar praise and holds a score of 83 on Metacritic.
I never played the original game it is still on my to-play list but I can vouch for the amazing experience of the second one. It brought some unique mechanics to what at the time was a stale genre. Prototype is another popular open-world sandbox video game. The game was released in and a sequel Prototype 2 was released in The game takes place in New York City just as a plague is taking over and spreading throughout the city.
Once infected, diseased creatures only have one purpose which is to kill any uninfected life form. In the midst of this chaos we find Alex Mercer who has no memory of his past but has the ability to shape-shift. Players are free to roam the open-game world and solve the main storyline as they please, similar to the gameplay of Infamous and the GTA series. This is a game series that I strongly recommend if you're a fan of open world games that are packed full of story and lore, especially if you prefer them with an out of this world feel.
If you are a fan of the stealth aspects in the GTA games, then Hitman is the game for you. The core objectives around each level involve the player killing an assigned target with some levels containing optional bonus targets. While the game does reward a subtle approach to each level, the player is allowed to go Rambo style to achieve the mission goals.
The entire Hitman series has received positive reviews, making it a great, reliable game. While it lacks the open-world environment, many of the missions feel like assassination side missions of GTA. The pick from the series for me is definitely Hitman: Absolution since it finally got a few of the core gameplay mechanics perfectly balanced, making it the highest polished game from the series yet.
Alternatively, if you want to try one of the older games then Hitman Contracts is my favourite from the older era titles. If instead you want to go all out the Himan Collection is a convenient way to get every game in a bundle.
It is pretty whacky, with a quirky sense of humor and a storyline that never really fits with the accurate depiction of those times, and thus, ends up feeling highly anachronistic. With a choice to use weapons such as swords, crossbows, or spears, you can easily take on gangs of misguided knights or even steal a horse or two for a bit of fun.
Either way, this game manages to create a fun experience. Rustler is free-to-play on Steam. New User posted their first comment. Log in. GTA Listicle. Modified 12 Sep Listicle.
