The Good Lush jungle environments are stunningly realized Drake's animations are nuanced and naturalistic

The Bad
Tough and plentiful enemies can make firefights frustrating Platforming elements can be too forgiving Certain story elements are underdeveloped

Havent got the game myself yet (Euro). Still, cannot wait for this game.

Haven't really heard too many complaints about the enemies. The platforming one seems in line with other impressions, though. Still sounds great.

Awntawn · Nov 20, 2007

I think it would benefit all sides of GAF at this point if we banned all Uncharted reviews of any sort from now on.

Coin Return · Nov 20, 2007

8 is a great score.

Right?

CajoleJuice · Nov 20, 2007

That's a shame.

neojubei · Nov 20, 2007

make a topic for the gamespot Mass Effect review. We dont need a topic for this nor the uncharted review, i think everyone knows by now.

karasu · Nov 20, 2007

What's so bad about an 8?

CrushDance · Nov 20, 2007

Tough and plentiful enemies=bad? Is this the same as No Mii's in Fire emblem=bad? Haha. I want to play this game so bad but probably can't afford it right now.

Noone will dispute this score in a year.

fatigues_gasolini · Nov 20, 2007

yeah and they gave Mass Effect an 8.5. Is it gonna stop you from getting the game?

Possibly but I disliked getting head shots in the demo and the enemies are like HA HA HA YOU HAVE A PEA SHOOTER DRAKE!

RamzaIsCool · Nov 20, 2007

Actually if you look to the history of that reviewer, 8 is like 99% higher then he normally rates.

Hear that guys, You need weak and less enemies to make a great game. Seriously, how is this a negitive thing? The game isn't something you can rush through, you must take your time and think.

ouch.

the platforming sounds a lot like tomb raider legends. cool, but way too easy.

I love the defensive responses in this thread. :lol (Who said anything bad?)

PepsimanVsJoe · Nov 20, 2007

Ryan Davis is a cool guy. This is a good score coming from him.

Has Gamespot always reviewed lowered then most other sites or is this something that has only been going on for the past few years?

$1148 Jack · Nov 20, 2007

Score seems about right to me. I might still pick it up though.

See, I was thinking of doing this, but since I don't actually have the power to make it happen, it wouldn't have been as awesome.

I think they came to their senses after giving THPS3 a 10.

Gigglepoo · Nov 20, 2007

Sweet! If this is comparable to Ratchet (a game I loved and would give an 8) I'm in for one heck of an experience.

EXACTLY. I just don't understand how some game "journalists" will say the most retarded shit ever to "justify" their score.
An 8 is by no means a bad score, but the reason they give in the cons section is just plain :lol :lol :lol

HomerSimpson-Man · Nov 20, 2007

First Mass Effect then Uncharted, Gamespot just isn't making my day, then again a 7.5 for too much variety helped stop me giving a bit of a damn.

Bebpo · Nov 20, 2007

Why are the positives solely about graphics? Shouldn't they talk about why it's a good GAME?

Zombie James · Nov 20, 2007

I hear Halo 3 is awesome on Heroic.

Green Shinobi · Nov 20, 2007

Gamespot needs to start all over. Put Gerstmann and all those other hacks in the unemployment line where they belong and bring in some new reviewers. All they do is give out ridiculous scores with no basis in reality (Twilight Princess, Ratchet are two of the biggest offenders).

skip · Nov 20, 2007

ryan davis is indeed awesome. now all gamespot needs to do is post their Rock Band review, and everyone can stop bitching about review scores for the year -- instead, saving their energy for the coming pointless and directionless GOTY debates.

can't wait!

Nice.

Its a good score and a good review.

h3ro · Nov 20, 2007

So Ratchet got a 7.5 for being too easy, and Uncharted lost points for having "tough AI"?

No. It's a great score. Stop trying to downplay this review.

I'm saving my energy for the coming avalanche of pointless and directionless GOTY week-long features, 10-page feature articles, and podcasts. Yay content!

DeaconKnowledge · Nov 20, 2007

Why is 8 bad now?

More importantly, why does every single game have to be a 9.9 for the reviewer to not get crucified?
