Agreed. Uncharted has excellent villain characters. There's not one I don't love playing as in multiplayer. All fun and full of personality.

Gotta say ND is by far the biggest disappointment for this gen. They are making only 2 games instead of 4 (no I don't consider a DLC game as another, it's cool if other people do). On top of that, they make new IPs every generation, this gen we're stuck with Uncharted and TLOU. Don't get me wrong, Uncharted is one of my favorite franchises, U4 is one of the best games this gen, and TLOU is one of the best and one of my favorite games of all time. But two fucking games and no new IPs is a huge bummer. Still buying the DLC this month and finishing it, esp since my girl Chloe is back. But yeah, I'm pretty underwhelmed. Rockstar is another that focuses halfway through this gen on a last gen game still, but that's a whole other story.

Lost Legacy counts as a game and if U4 didn't have to get reworked heavily after Amy left we possibly could have gotten 4 from them this gen. Combine that with the huge expectations on ND for quality, your own post being a perfect example of that, and slowing down a bit isn't a huge surprise. Hell, even among Sony first party they're putting out more than the other studios aside from Guerrilla.Gotta say ND is by far the biggest disappointment for this gen.

Creamium, how would you compare it to the other games after finishing it?
After first play through, were you still pleased with the combat, exploration, puzzle ratio?
To be fair, SSM had a cancelled new IP and Bend had some cancelled projects as well. Sucker Punch is working on a new IP.MM, PD, SSM, Bend have released fuck all after 4 years, Sucker Punch went to sleep,

TLOU:II is a 2019 title at the earliest, and by then I would expect we'll be near PS5 getting announced. I think that will be it for this gen for ND.Obviously it will depend on when the generation ends, but I still think you might get 4 this gen if you consider LL a game (which I think a lot do).
Uncharted 4
Lost Legacy
The Last of Us: Part II
Then maybe....maybe, when Bruce Straley comes back, he'll direct something new to put in at the end of the generation just like they did with TLoU? Obviously that is wishful thinking, but I don' t think it's crazy either.
And I echo what others have said. The first Uncharted was over a decade ago and games didn't cost as much or take as much time as they do now.
Best comedy ever 😊
Yeah, the Amy Henning and Justin Richmond departure probably cost them at least a year or more. I loved Amy's original pitch for the game where Drake's brother is bitter and angry at Drake for leaving him in jail, and would've probably been the villain of the game. going up against your brother would've been a lot more personal than previous games and would've created a much more interesting dynamic. I really didnt like how Sam was Drake-lite and had a pretty easy going relationship with Drake for most of the game. And just when you find out he essentially lied to Drake, they take him away so you dont really get a confrontation and some nice meaty scenes.As much as I do not like UC4 and how it came out so long after PS4 released, you cannot fault ND for their output this generation. The simple reason for UC4 taking years was what happened with Hennig, we do not know the full story but it is quite clear a lot of the game had to be done again. Now, they have made a pretty long experience in a little over a year so that is impressive in terms of output.
The technology is in place and the whole studio should be on TLOU2 now, so very excited to hear ND starting to give details about the game. A demo at PSX seems like a huge stretch but fuck it, hoping we get something!
In terms off shit output for first party, it is safe to say none of Sonys studios except for GG have been good regarding input. MM, PD, SSM, Bend have released fuck all after 4 years, Sucker Punch went to sleep, Quantic made it sound like Detroit has still got a ways to go etc. It has not been a great generation for me because I got the PS4 for first party and in all honesty, 3rd party games are pretty shit with most chasing GAAS money.
I feel you, but they did work on two new IPs last gen, and both just turn out to be very successful. I understand why they had to make another Uncharted and I obviously understand why they are working on a new TLOU. Anyway, these projects are getting bigger and bigger so it's difficult to pump them out at the same rate.
I would've loved a new IP by now, but I'm sure they will work on the new next, at least.
What is that movie?
Monty Python and The Holy Grail.
I think PS5 is 2020 and TLoU:II will be announced for fall 2018 but delayed to summer 2019. They won't be able to get another game out before fall of the following year. Not another mainline entry anyway. Maybe they could do a Lost Legacy type thing with TLoU: II.TLOU:II is a 2019 title at the earliest, and by then I would expect we'll be near PS5 getting announced.

Good reviews but I guess it isn't a repeat of TLOU, wherein the DLC was head and shoulders above the main game. That was the best story game content I've ever played.
I have no idea why it's taking everyone so long to make video games all of a sudden.
what sort of weird statement is this? TLOU is GOTG for many and Left behind isn't H+S above the main game.
It was for me. The characters, gameplay, and story all supported each other: it was seamless and felt almost real.
If they didn't have to make the main game 90% stealth action shooter, it would have been better. Story and characters had to be shoehorned into the bits between murder-festing, which always takes me right out of the story and makes the characters feel hollow. I'd rather play a game without those pretentions,like Lego Dimensions or Doom (2016); than ones with, like Bioshock Infinite and TLOU.
Ymmv of course, as people have different tolerances for these things.
Agreed.LB would not have had the emotional impact that you think it had; had TLOU not been as good as it is.
It takes longer as hardware gets more and more complicated. Also, at these resolutions, assets take considerably more time to create now than they used to. The difference between a texture created for PS3 to be displayed at 720p and a texture created for PS4 to be displayed somewhere between 1080p-4K is insane.

Fuck it I'm back in.Just finished
UC2 > TLL > 4 > 3 >1
That was fucking amazing. It's now my 2nd favourite uncharted. Basically possibly what uncharted 4 should have been - its quite clear they listened to the feedback about 4.
Perfectly packed. There's a whole lot of combat in this so don't listen to the people saying there isn't. What a wonderful game.
Before TLL I'd say I'm done with the franchise but you know what? Bring on a sequel!
9/10

They're showing quite a bit here. People wanting to remain 100% spoilerfree probably shouldn't watch this

Just preordered from GameStop for the Jak and Daxter bonus, how do I redeem it? Is the code on the receipt or will I get it when I pick up my copy of Uncharted on Tuesday?
Cool, thanks for the quick response!It's either in the case with the game or on the receipt when you pick up.

http://www.impulsegamer.com/uncharted-lost-legacy-review/So while you climb, grapple, explore, drive, sneak around and engage in lots of gun fights, there's so much do in this game. The puzzles in the game are well thought out and not too contrived or forced... or damn difficult. They actually make sense in Lost Legacy. The game also gives hardcore fans a wide gamut of collectables to find which really helps you explore the environment as you get lost in the world of Lost Legacy
They may avoid that though given Sony's stance on release dates/delays now.I agree. I think with Neil Druckmann directing, it will get delayed once or twice, guaranteed.
