The guys that were trying to kill him right?
I'm tired of this whole Nate is a murderer narrative, it's just so ridiculous to expect any sense of realism or acknowledgement from a game with stupendous gameplay and story. Get over it.

"I'm gonna get you, Fisher!"
Typical GAF. If someone doesn't like what I like, they must be trolling.
I honestly don't remember anything noteworthy from the PSX demo. Nathan climbed some stuff and shot some dudes as per usual.

Also, it's unrealistic how many times he can get shot and be okay. It should be like real life: One shot and he's incapacitated and crying (possibly peeing his pants and begging for his life), two shots goes unconscious and you can't move him, three shots and he's dead.
That's not what he's saying. He's saying that the shit that's being complained about not being in the game has been displayed as being in the game.
Meanwhile if we got a thread saying that GTA is too violent, everyone would rush to GTA's defense.

"Dammit Fisher!" is still the best.
Well, that was absolutely incredible. Shit's gone well beyond Indiana Jones at this point. It's like Indiana on steroids. The animations, the pacing, the switch up in set pieces, amazing. Only two things I think could improve it a little.
1. Add some more camera shake or velocity when driving, in order to up the sense of speed and danger. Eg Driveclub chase cam style.
2. Lower the number of shots it takes to kill the guys on the bike, or add some more hit detection animation feedback.

Without a chart or graph,it's hard to believe this.

UnCHARTed 4.
Saying "Holy Shit" near the end was the perfect cap.
I laughed hard when he jumps on the back of the truck after being dragged, and says "ha ha". Also when the guy jumps on the hood of the jeep, and says "ENOUGH OF THIS!" and gets smashed through a broken shed. Afterwards Drake calls him an asshole (which made me bust out laughing), and even turns his head and torso around while driving to get a look at the dude.
Man this game is going to be crazy.

I think that would be way too expensive and time consuming to do with a game that has the insane and technically exhaustive set pieces that Uncharted games tend to. I can imagine this one area or segment took months and months to develop, with an inordinate amount of effort and optimisations as is, which is why basically no other (linear or open) game matches it right now.
If you compare the set pieces in games like The Order 1886, Ryse, Rise of the Tomb Raider etc, with the stuff we're seeing here, Naughty Dog is already in an entirely different league.

Yep people being crazy .
Each demo show a different part of what makes up UC4 .
This demo shows a crazy physics ,destruction and a set piece.
The PSX show sand box gameplay with some of the new things they doing in UC4.
Even the first half of the demo showcases a new mechanic, that is driving vehicles, which never existed in the previous games. We had on the rails shooting guns from vehicles, or manning turret type segments, but never any actual free control driving.

The first Uncharted plays nothing like previous Tomb Raider games. It seems like it was Naughty Dog's take on Indiana Jones.
The only thing Uncharted shared with Tomb Raider at that point was the protagonists job description.

We had a horse, which is somewhat the same.
Well, sort of lol. But even that was far more linear and less expansive than what we were shown here, with the multiple pathways, destructible environmental elements and all the rest.
Yeah the insane amount of effort put into just one of these "paths" did come across my mind, but I do think such a change would be an evolutionary step to take with a series well known for linear set-pieces (open world gameplay not being an option). And it doesn't even have to be entire gameplay segments, for instance maybe the latter half of this particular setpiece could've been over water with a motorboat (while Sam is being pursued on a seashore highway).
Not saying they're not doing anything new here. But if there's ever a need for them to take their gameplay even further, I think this could be it and knowing ND, they'll do a pretty damn good job at it.

Well, the first Uncharted had something similar with the jet ski section.

Yep which now carry over to the set piece like we see here .
Then there also that the first part of the set piece which has different routes .
Don't think we ever had that before in a set piece.
Both vids really show how much UC has move forward .

I always found it funny that people say Uncharted aped Tomb Raider. Thematically, yes to a certain extent. It takes just as many inspirations from Indiana Jones as well. Gameplay wise? They never played anything alike until Tomb Raider rebooted to become like Uncharted.
Uncharted played like Gears of War mixed in with some lite platforming and puzzles sprinkled around. Tomb Raider was all about precision platforming, had no cover system with lite shooting and was more about puzzle solving.
Gaming is all about taking ideas from others and refining them, but Tomb Raider was just at another level of taking inspiration from elsewhere. Not a second went by while playing that game where I wasn't thinking how its a more open Uncharted.
Best wishes.

correct me if i'm wrong but the game itself was codenamed dude raider during development.
