Re: The Uncharted thread

It inspired me to have a little dabble this afternoon, but I kept missing the moment I wanted to capture. It was quite annoying!

It gets extra annoying when they block you from using it during certain set pieces and actions.

I've played through all the collection now and the games still stand up pretty well. Interestingly, although Drakes Fortune is pretty much as I remember it, Among Thieves doesn't seem quite as good now but Drakes Deception seems better than I remember. They're all good games though and look amazing in their remastered forms. Roll on UC4!

I returned to my Hard Mode play through of the first Uncharted on PS3 and earned a trophy. PSNProfiles tells me the gap between my first trophy and that one is almost 7 years! How time flies. Anyway, bloody good game.

Uncharted 4 multiplayer beta starts tomorrow!

[megablast16]

Brand new story trailer, which premiered at yesterday's game awards. It's not very long but does introduce a new female character giving Drake a hard time.

Anyone else playing the Uncharted 4 beta? Had a few rounds and it plays similarly to the other games multiplayer. I was a little disappointed by the graphics and how small the maps are. But for some reason I'm not that bad at the game online - I won the first match! Still Uncharted is really about single player so don't know why they really bother with online for it. Coop would be good though.

I've played a bit of the beta, graphics wise it looks good for the stage of development that the game is in. Love the new stuff they've added into it. The powers and abilities help make the game feel more unique compared to Uncharted 2 and 3's more generic multiplayer modes. It did take me a while to get used to the tweaked controls and slower aiming.

Nooooo...Uncharted 4 has been delayed again! It's not too bad this time, it will now be released in the UK on April 29th instead of March 18th, but still, fuck!!. 

[megablast16]

Aaaah...another two week delay. It's now out worldwide on May 10th!

Naughty Dog are torturing us now.

Give them all the time they need!

There is an open beta this weekend though to make up for it.

[Wolvieware]

I'm not going to buy it on release anyway as I still have Uncharted 3 to replay.

[megablast16]

You've got another 3 months yet, you should have UC3 done by then. 

[Wolvieware]

Not at the rate I seem to be getting through games! I've decided to go back and finish off some of my older titles before starting a new game (Batman Arkham Knight, Black Flag, Mad Max) so I'm really not fussed about the lack of games at the moment.

[megablast16]

The very latest Uncharted 4 gameplay footage. It seems to be a bit more open than previous games, and there's a touch of MGS about the combat, and man does it look gorgeous, check out that draw distance! Wow. Just over a month to go.

I'm trying really hard not to watch the new preview videos doing the rounds. I've reached my cut off point for hype for the game. I CAN'T WAIT!

[Wolvieware]

Is there really hype for this? I'm not fussed at all yet I recall being very excited for parts 2 and 3 though. Very strange. Maybe I feel the need to be the forum pessimist now that Pigmarcher no longer frequents!

[megablast16]

The delays pissed me off, especially the last one, which didn't seem necessary, but really excited about it now it's so close to release.

I'd say there is considerable hype around the game. It's on track to be one of the PS4's biggest selling first party games and there are also a lot of people new to the franchise who seem interested in giving it a go.

Got round to completing the third game in the collection a couple of weeks back. Still the weakest of the three games for me.

[megablast16]

Apparently some people have already got their hands on the game, two weeks early! Game sites are reporting at least one person was able to buy a copy from CEX, some copies have reportedly also been sent from Amazon and there are already some listings on e-bay going for £90! Guess that means a fortnight of trying to avoid spoilers now.


                              

[Wolvieware]

That's rather early for dispatch isn't it?!

Yup time to avoid quite a few sites on the internet!

*Ducks into anti-spoiler foxhole*

Although to be fair the majority of major gaming/geek sites are respectful when it comes to spoiling stuff these days.

[megablast16]

The latest is that the copies on ebay and being sold in CEX are from a batch stolen in transit, according to Sony!

[megablast16]

The reviews are coming in, it sounds alright. lol

My ShopTo pre-order is now being processed and will be dispatched imminently. With luck I'll get it Monday, maybe even Saturday if it's sent out early enough tomorrow.
