Rising Storm Two
This is another battle game set in the period of World War Two. The Americans are fighting against the Vietnamese army. Both sides employ different tactics that are dangerously fatal if not employed correctly. The Viet’s are cunning and use stealth, while Americans are extremely loud, fast and lethal. For either side to succeed in this game there has to be great teamwork and coordination.
An additional advantage to the game is the use of modern technology. Super weapons and advanced ammunition are employed just as if the war was happening today. What makes it attractive is the fact that the authenticity of the game, such as the terrain, is maintained. The combination of both the actual WW2 terrain and modern weaponry makes this game unputdownable.

Prey
Developed by Arkane, this game is both thrilling and chilling. It is based on an assumption that JFK was never assassinated, the ‘cold war’ with Russia is still ongoing, and that there was a space station operated by one side, which was later abandoned. The function of the station was to monitor aliens. As the alien threat becomes real, you are put onboard this space station.
Now you have to fight the aliens who change form and can shape shift. They can be the seat next to you, or even a cup of coffee. You’ll need to fight to save your generation and the ones to come.
