Save this for OT2
Great is used with such ease. They are "ok" at best while their best output is great.

The sum of Uncharted 4's parts make it worthy of a higher score than an 8/10. Based purely on what I know right now, without having even played the single player campaign, I know this. Anyone reviewing videogames today knows this.

Oh I know, I'm not worried either, I'm pretty sure this will by Game of the Year, but it's still good to see early reviews, as it's a rare thing these days.

I still don't understand how so many people go crazy over reviews. So embarrassing.

I don't think being excited for reviews of the biggest game released so far this gen is embarassing.

You know I mean the "meltdowns" if it gets anything less than a 9.9
Always a chore to read people who haven't played a game say so firmly that someone who has is wrong.
The only embarrassing thing I've noticed with UC4 reviews approaching is people frothing at the mouth to see meltdowns of other gaffers if a couple low scores crop up.
It's bizarre to me to have such an approach :/
Just as sad as the meltdowns over low scores.

Just saw Elena, she's so adorable. Nate doesn't realize what he has, bad Nate, very bad
Maybe he does't deserve her?

That happens when your whole gaming life revolves around one or two games per year, you become obsessed and unable to process dissent.
I'm not sure if the reviews will be as perfect/glowing as I thought anymore. I've been playing for about 6 hours and I'm sure it gets much better, but what I've played so far is just good, but not mindblowing (well except the graphics are mindblowing). It takes a while longer to get to the "meat" of Uncharted gameplay, unlike U2, which has break-neck pacing from the first 5 minutes, and I think this may influence some reviewers.
This made me smile.
Thinking about having seat-belts installed on my couch for the review thread.
Bet?

I switched to an alt account to ditch my embarrassing tag so I could be an embarrassing Naughty Dog fanboy in peace. Ask me anything!
Then a review thread for a game should only open after the game has released. Because one cannot criticize or praise the review without having played it.
What if the one post his review early is the most mixed one? that alone is enough for a 50+ pages thread before the embargo lefts.

I think Chobel secretly enjoys being wrong.

Not this time.
The game ends with Sully killing Nate and driving away into the sunset of Madagascar with Elena. Then the title card appears. Calling it now.

You don't to criticise or praise a review to engage with it.
Seems very unhealthy and sad to me.
I'm going with 92. Hope it doesn't get above that so Out of the Park Baseball 17 can continue being the highest rated 2016 title.

why would he say "spoiler warning" if he follows up with that by saying there's basically isn't any
EDIT: okay I kept reading and saw why.

A game with less than 10 reviews should not even count.
I think he was joking, no one care or count this game even if it had 100 reviews.

Add IGN too for this game.

"soap opera" level dialogue between certain characters is a worrisome note for me (though this person doesn't really explain what they mean) -- the dialogue in TLOU was really solid. Stripped down, not too stilted, not too much shoe-horned exposition, just enough to realistically paint the characters and their relationships.
However, despite the great voice acting, I'm not a fan of the writing in U2 (only one I've played). Considering the writers, I'd assume U4 would be more in the vein of TLOU. Very interested to see more reviewers on this point.

Fully expecting rave reviews similar to Bloodborne. It's Naughty Dog behind this and their track record is stellar. Predicting 94 Metacritic.

The writing in UC2 is one of the main reasons that game is a joy. Reminds me of Raiders of the Lost Ark (or a good episode of Tintin): entertaining, charming adventure anchored by likable characters (also the best entries in their franchises). Great relationships (Flynn, Elena/Chloe love triangle) and great quips/banter.
"Face it genius you've been played"- Drake in his cell always gets me. The ending is great too! You sure you didn't smile as the credits rolled? lol jk
That said I'm hoping UC4 tops it in the story department. From the trailers and demos it looks like they've struck a great balance between fun adventure with some emotional weight. I hope!

I have a feeling this is going to be one of the best scoring games of the generation. I'm going to say first week Metacritic average of 95.
It just looks so great and all the impressions so far have been incredibly positive. I am bias though as a big uncharted fan. Got next week off, so I'll devote a few days to getting through the campaign.
