There's a mobile game called Uncharted: Fortune Hunter that seems kind of fun if the comparisons to Hitman Go or Lara Croft Go are correct. I played Lara Croft Go and it was a lot of fun.

My special edition shipped today. I'm about half done with Uncharted 2, so I hope to get started by next weekend.

Due to backlash...
International Gamer Council Updates Review Guidelines: 8.8/10 Now A ‘Bad’ Score
The Council traditionally revises review score guidelines once per calendar year but was forced to convene an emergency meeting when IGN announced that Uncharted 4 was “only” an 8.8 out of 10.

“Game journalists often have wrong, or incorrect ideas about what a review score conveys to the reader.”
Spoiler:
I'm picking up my copy at Best Buy on Tuesday. Can't wait!

I played and loved the trilogy on PS3 so a "low" review score has no effect on getting this game. I knew from the moment it was announced

Gameinformer has a really good in depth review up......9.25

http://www.gameinformer.com/games/un...-4-review.aspx

.....and so does Pologon.......9

http://www.polygon.com/2016/5/5/1154...g-nathan-drake


I never played the UC 2 & 3 since I came from he Xbox so with the Collection at $19.00 at Best Buy I might get it and go thru it before getting this. By reading the reviews this might be IT....so I'd rather go back and play those first.

Uncharted 2 is one of the best games I've ever played. You should definitely pick up the Collection at Best Buy this week.

This thread is awfully quiet. Is everyone too busy playing to talk?

Stupid Canada Post I'm still waiting on mine to be delivered.

Re: Uncharted 4: A Thief's End (PS4, 5/10/2016)

My copy arrived during Lunch time. Weren't we supposed to get an additional 20% off from Amazon for being a Prime member? I don't know if it's worth complaining about since I got the game at a discounted price anyway. If I can get another $8 off though, I'm not too proud to ask...

Did you preorder a million years ago (or, well, January 2015) when it was $43.40?

From what I understand, you get 20% off list or the lowest price (within 2 weeks of release), but not 20% off the lowest price. It doesn't stack the way that Best Buy's deals can.

I did buy it, but with work, social life and responsibilities, I probably won't get to it until some time Sunday afternoon.

The crash bandicoot scene cracked me up. Graphic wise I am not sure how any other console game before the neo can top it the facial animations are top notch

Re: Uncharted 4: A Thief's End (PS4, 5/10/2016)

I'm maybe two hours into it. The story isn't really grabbing me yet, but I'm enjoying it well enough. I found the
Spoiler:
teenage drake stuff and prison stuff

to be kind of a drag in particular, though. I'm now on Chapter 5, for what it's worth.

But, the
Spoiler:
Crash Bandicoot

gameplay was awesome! Totally loved that and I'm hoping there's a chance to revisit that again. I have a feeling there's going to be a very specific moment that recalls that part.

Re: Uncharted 4: A Thief's End (PS4, 5/10/2016)

Just hit chapter 5. The intro didn't do much for me yet either -

Spoiler:
The flashbacks are kind of weird, especially when you see Sam get shot since you know he lives which kind of kills any emotional impact to start things off.


But damn, the graphics are great.

well even though it appears without spoilers here already
Spoiler:
Drake playing CB

Spoiler:
Drake's man cave and the toy guns was pretty funny as well


I too just got to the start of Chapter 5 and am going to take a break for the night
story is fine thus far, my biggest disappointment is there isn't more gameplay or more varied gameplay .... yet
I know the games tend to start out with more of the control tutorial but I would think by now (4+ games in), we get it

New system, new controls tutorial. The reviews I've read all said the same thing about the game starting out slow.

Re: Uncharted 4: A Thief's End (PS4, 5/10/2016)

Picked this up last night. I guess Chapter 5 must be the best stopping point, because that's where I stopped as well. Agree that the beginning was sort of slow, but it is a good way to get used to the controls again.

Graphically, this is incredible. Looking forward to whatever might be in store (I've stayed pretty much spoiler free).
