I don't think there's any real comparison. Uncharted now looks better than it ever has.

What really impressed me that no one seems to be talking about is the motion blur. Looks a lot like Lost Planet's implementation... and that's a great thing. Animations look great, textures look great, the explosions have a very stylized look to them (almost like art instead of something realistic like GRAW), etc. Graphically Uncharted has everything nailed down.
Can't wait to get this. Well I'll have R&CF to tide me over for a long time, and I still have a lot of games to finish but I want to play this now. I love adventure games in the tomb raider1&2 and indiana jones settings.AltogetherAndrews

Now conspiracy-hat me all you like, but I certainly won't be surprised when this game gets nitpicked to hell by critics. Every little flaw will be highlighted, regardless of how great the bigger picture is.

Lord Error
Insane For Sony
You know what - I honestly think that the more devs boast about this or that technical feature of their game, how much texture data or sounds they've stored there or whatever, the game gets under more scrutiny when it's reviewed.AltogetherAndrews said:
Whether it's fair or not I don't know (maybe devs should just shut up with tech talk in their interviews and leave that for white papers, because it's just damaging in the end?) but I've noticed that only games that don't get under such kind of scrutiny are those that not only look great, but where devs rarely if ever boast about technology behind it - example would be Little Big Planet, Bioshock or Ratchet & Clank.

I don't know, perhaps LBP and Ratchet and Clank hasn't done much tech talk but Bioshock went on and on about their water. I don't blame people for wanting to highlight their accomplishments, but I agree that if they are great they really don't need to be talked about. You should just notice them.
I think Sony is just under a lot of scrutiny period right now. E3 '05 is in my opinion where they went wrong, and people take a long time to let go. Microsoft came out really had a horrible MTV unveiling, and then produced a few games that looked way better than what they promised (GRAW and then 6-9 months later Gears of War comes to mind).
So yeah... expect Sony 1st party games to get scrutinized for a while yet. Personally I think it sucks, but people are people.

Awesome, thanks. Seems it's up on Gametrailers as well.
These guys needs to go out and help 3rd parties when they are done with this game. It's just awesome looking.
The only thing I don't like is as some have stated that the animations seems kinda floaty sometimes. Although that's a minor nitpick and the game looks too good in all other areas.
Plus the animation is a great most of the time.
The new developer video just looks unbelievable in some places. Holy shit!
We need screen caps from that.

New dev video at gametrailers. http://www.gametrailers.com/game/2654.html
Looks like old footage here and there with some new one. The animations and the fights are looking really better now, the jump is still a bit strange/floaty. The lighting is sometimes very good, sometimes not quite believable (especially the part with the flashlight). But the animations' blending are really impressive.

I don't think this is old, but here's a good video that shows a big part of a level in Uncharted.

its not conspiracy,it just reality,just heard any podcast about any ps3 game,there allways and "BUT"for all ps3 games,but the worst example of this trend will be killzone 2,belive me,that game will be panned,they will exagerate all the minor flaws of the game

The dumbest point made about the game in previews and impression is "well since this game is getting graphically more life like and smooth animation wise, the flaws stand out more clearly". Hopefully there arent any bogus comments like that in the final reviews.
Zer0 said:
is Killzone 2 going to have multiplayer? if it isnt, you can pretty much count on that being a negative for reviewers.

if its not 4 player co op, you better believe it will get docked some points.
Jtrizzy said:
Most likely... I'll throw in Ratchet as well, because it looks incredible, plays great (even before the major tweaks), and will probably have a bit of depth both in gameplay and storyline...
And yes, of course Uncharted is going to get torn to shreds, and there's only one reason for that...
temjin said:
Eh, it happens... I'm the same way at times like how people love to wank over SMG, Smash, and Nights, while I'm wondering if people think they look great just because they're not as bad looking as other games on that machine and that they put a lil more effort into the looks...

The game is loaded visually so it seems to be up to the challenge for those that want to nitpick it. I wouldn't say the game is perfect visually, but they seem to have all the bases covered visually so there's nothing glaring that sticks out. But I think that's what happens when you try to make a game that's balanced visually instead of picking 1 thing and trying to make it look better than everything else while the rest of the games visuals suffer as a result.

How can the game have an "Uncanny Valley effect" when the design isn't attempting true realism at all? The game is going for a very stylized, pulp comic book look, which it delivers, big time.
Seriously, people need to learn what these terms mean before they go throwing them around...

I really hope people stop using uncanny valley, I am seen it mentioned a few times in relation to games in Next Gen, it is such a bullcrap way to rationalize things. While I would rather have a more stylish look than realistic, knocking something because it looks too real graphically should not be a fault.
I may come off as overblowing it, but after hearing it on 1upyours yesterday when it was said Halo 3 had better humans than MGS4 because MGS4 had an uncanny valley effect was just sickening.

Lets just say that if you think Uncharted's collision detection will get nitpicked, you don't want to see AC's.
With Uncharted they've still got some of the collision detection they need to clean up but its already come a long way since it was originally shown playable. So they're getting there.

I take shots at 1up from time to time, but not even they would say something like that.
