Uncharted 4

[Bubba]

I've been trying to convince myself to play Golden Abyss on Vita. I just find that I don't really like hand held gaming anymore. I feel cramped.

Same. I'm absolutely flabbergasted that an HD version hasn't been released on PS4 yet. It would have been a perfect addition to The Nathan Drake Collection. Nearly every other high profile Vita game has been re-released for home platforms.

Golden Abyss was developed by SIE Bend so that's probably why it didn't appear in the collection.

It was still produced by Naughty Dog though so

I'm not. I find the uncharteds to be pretty uninspiring in gameplay.

Slight amendment to the thread title as today is the day!

Only scratched the surface so far but this looks very impressive indeed.

Chapters 1 & 2 Spoilers knew the voice acting would be stellar on all fronts but very impressed with young Nate and Sam. Playing as young Nate again was great. Nothing we haven't seen before with the jumping around buildings but it was executed very well. The new slide down slopes mechanic will be used a lot, obviously. The way it ended you assume we'll be flashing back to these two again.

Clearly getting everyone used to the mechanics in the first two chapters. Melee and more parkour stuff. The prison setting was great but the scaling of the old ruin could have been taken from any of the previous three games. I get the feeling the developers knew this had to be the last Uncharted. General gameplay hasn't changed an awful lot. I'm sure the story will be fantastic though.

Finally finished, and really enjoyed it. Worth every penny. Naughty Dog are so damned good.

Where do you think it would place in your top 100?

Good work! I'm just starting chapter 7. I blame baby duties for my lack of progress

Below Uncharted 2, above Uncharted 3. Not sure exactly how it'll fit in though.

I'm only on like, Chapter 4, but so far it has the greatest playable easter egg ever.

Also the attention to detail in this game is jaw dropping. The environments are insanely detailed, especially Drake's house. That whole house was a nostalgia overload for me. The way when they lay on furniture and stuff, the furniture actually sinks in and moves realistically, is really something. I've never seen another game that goes the extra mile to get that all right.

I smurfing love this game <3
it has everything i need and i love nate's humour.
im just so freaking sad that this is the last of them (this is not a spoiler, it was already known)
*sigh* my live is over now, ive finished it

got a question tho!
there was suppose to be a big secret revealed about Nate.
i think i missed it? what was it? was it that he has a brother? because that was alread out in the open.

im a little bit disapointed about the extra's.
they used to have examples of how the cutscenes were made and alot of concept art in the previous games.

Finished crushing mode. Hoo, boy, was that painful to get through at times. Particularly the car chase and the booby traps in the tunnels near the end of the game. Also completed a sub-six hour run with 73% accuracy yesterday for those two achievements. Having seen some of the other achievements I'd need for platinum, I don't think I'll get them... they look like a proper chore. Maybe something to do if I get bored again.

i think its funny how casual they are about killing ppl

the gang driving in a car, chatting.
then they stop because there are some badguys up ahead.

they get out.. shoot them, almost die themselves.
then they get back into the car..
Sully: 'So, sam, you were saying..?'
Sam: 'ooh right, so you know when i was...)

and they chat on as if nothing ever happened xD

its also funny how at the very end they (SPOILER) they tell their kid about the adventures... probably leaving out the hundreds of mercenaries they killed xD

so.. Nathan and his gang are really just mass murderers

This game is really incredible. I'd probably put it as even better than Uncharted 2 actually. The story's better. The environments are better. The grappling rope is awesome!

Man, I haven't finished the game yet because I was playing through on crushing mode. I got all the way to that part where you're (SPOILER)separated from Sam on the island and you have no guns on Crushing mode, and after I died for the 30th time on that part I finally gave up out of frustration and knocked the difficulty down to hard mode.

I still don't think this game's Crushing mode is quite as unforgiving as Uncharted 1's Crushing mode, but it's a lot harder than 2 or 3, to me anyway. I remember the Crushing modes of 2 and 3 being no picnic but they never felt unforgivingly difficult. Hoo boy, 1 and 4 on the other hand will test your patience.

Of what I found Uncharted 1, even playing on casual was enough for me. I suppose I'm not really great at shooters! I also found getting those brutal melee combos to be a nightmare.

Yeah, Uncharted 1 is just a legitimately difficult game, even if you are good at shooters. Uncharted 1's normal mode is like Hard mode on all the others.
