I prefer to think of them as wizards
That's pretty awesome, but having some of the letters in the title on Drake's head is a little weird.
yeah I was thinking that too. But I'd rather it like that then have him be smaller in that image.
I think Uncharted has pretty much done all that it needs to do. It was a great series that is about to tell a complete story, both in terms of plot and in gameplay. It's rare, perhaps unheard of, for a game series to end on its own terms. The idea of Uncharted ending as ND wants should be savored.
Besides, they've shown that they can sell new IPs, so Sony should be able to deal with Uncharted ending and something new beginning.
I agree. If anything, they can have a new protagonist and not continue it numerically. They say Uc3 was supposed to be the last one, but it was not exactly a fitting conclusion to nathan's story if you ask me. Uc4 is hotly anticipated.
Hand the IP to someone else if they don't want to do it any more. I like new IPs, but continuing popular is not a bad thing. Nintendo thrives on it and really Microsoft too.
Nintendo is remarkable for its recycled IPs, but, I don't see mS having the same fair share of luck besides Halo. And PlayStation's never had an IP that's stuck around that long that's been as strongly identified, nor as popular as Nintendo's. At least, none since its beginning (Ps1). There were 4 trilogies that was synonymous with the original PlayStation, and they were crash bandicoot, spyro, tekken, and final fantasy, none of which were ever 1st party (at least, i don't think crash & spyro were), and none of which are still exclusive to PlayStation to this day. the jak, ratchet & clank, and spyro games are all considered great games but they don't have the same lasting and iconic appeal that mario, zelda, pokemon, and metroid have with nintendo. the difference with Uncharted is that although it is an IP that began on the 3rd iteration of PlayStation, the 2nd game in the series was a breakthrough and is considered one of the best games ever. And now that PlayStation is back on the lead as top gaming platform, PlayStation's biggest new IP which was Uncharted, has its newest game as one of the most anticipated, Uc4.
There won't be an uncharted game after A Theif's End
I would be fine seeing uncharted come to a close, but with the gaming industry being an expensive market for both firms and consumers, it's likely they'll keep it around. but hopefully, they end nathan drake's story here and if they continue uncharted, future installments will be non-numerical and will feature a different protagonist.
