Variance2 vs 2
Same score on variance - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Crysis
open encounters play out unpredictably at first
Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary
enemy spawns and drops vary
Optimization5 vs 5
Same score on optimization - which means the number cannot separate them. The difference is in what each one asks of you.
Crysis
suit energy management and approach planning
Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary
weapon sandbox and routes are solvable
A matching score does not mean a matching test. Two games can both sit at 10 on execution and demand completely different things of you - which is why the reasoning above matters more than the number beside it.
