Don't worry, 75% of those were just good ol' sarcasm. And Nib is a fan of Sony, so obviously it doesn't count, right?

My biggest issue with U3 was the enemy placements and combat scenarios were way too over the top and littered with bullet sponge enemies with rocket launcher. The battles were too "noisy" and not intimate enough. It resulted in it being a chore tbh but when it was just regular enemies is was really fun.
I loved the story and its direction until it was clear the actors had other obligations which isn't fair to the ND guys, can't pin that on them too much.
Set pieces were absolutely brilliant though as were the graphics and locations.

Yes, because those particular franchises have garnered far more fandom and extreme positive acclaim, so naturally people have more of a reaction or opinion towards outlier negative scores, from all sides, fans and detractors alike. You can see above that many people aren't even excited for or interested in the game, but are just in it to draw entertainment from any potential controversy. Add in all the different factors and obviously such threads can sometimes get a bit more...eventful.
Having said that, I'd say the angst towards Jeff and Angry Joe with the recent Quantum Break reviews lent to similar reactions and attacks, but honestly I feel like I see it with most major exclusives. The more outlier or harsh a review, the more of a reaction there tends to be.
Wouldn't it be an hour and a half?
1.5 hours.

Its pure shit posting for one. And hoping a game fails so you can get a chuckle is as sad as it gets.
1.5 hour
I'm Eastern...let me check.
Anyone from that quote wall wanna raise their hands if they actually want UC4 to fail for a couple laughs?

3AM eastern is 12AM pacific
I've never said I wanted the game to fail. that's dumb
That's where the list is failing. Not everyone on there wants bad reviews or the game to fail. It's a poor attempt at making a new wall of shame. Might as well include everyone who plans on going into the review thread on there

That's the heart of it really. And the fear that somebody is going to quote-mine your history faster than you can say 'Jack Robinson' to see how you reacted to review threads for games on the systems you prefer, and really really hoping you've been consistent.
I'm not entirely sure what you're implying here

Agreed. Same thing I can't deal with people in random thread "I don't care about Platinum/FROM games... but I want <favorite publisher> to buy them just to see the meltdown". Best thing is to ignore them

Phew, managed to beat the game in time for the reviews. I'm expecting pretty great reviews across the board.
It wasn't intended to shame, though a few quotes in there are certainly poor form. I made a post a moment earlier about how I suspect more people will quote the rare meltdown post than there will actually be meltdowns, because that's what many people want to see, and what some people are exclusively there to see. The list of quotes was just to highlight the sheer number of people who are excited for meltdowns or controversy, and how as a result any controversy is likely going to be exasperated and inadvertently make for a far worse overall review thread, with less actual constructive discussion.

Every one isn't going into the review thread hoping for meltdowns. I don't really care as I will admit it can be funny watch people lose their shit over a game, but don't try to paint it as anything but negativity.
that's what I thought until other folks started implying weird things about it and calling it another wall of shame.

I think mods don't allow popcorn.gif anymore right? Would be funny if the first page of review thread is full of that kind of post
When you group people that are generally excited for a review thread, and are just stating what the thread will be like inevitably as there will be controversy for one reason or another and include them with other people who are wishing for the game to get bad reviews or fail to create meltdowns and that controversy, it does come off as shaming (it is shameful to me to be grouped in along with people who wish for certain games to fail or get bad reviews). And people inferred it to be that way even giving it the title of WOS 2.0.
Not everyone in that list/group is going there for the meltdowns either.

Anyone else still trying to play through one of the other games before playing this one?
I'm going to get this day 1, but I still really want to play through UC2 and UC3 Remastered before getting to UC4, which will probably take about 2 weeks. I'm planning on being way more conservative with my internet browsing until I complete UC4.

I had planned to do that when I bought the collection in December...I never did. I've already played them all before though so I won't be lost.

As a short reminder, NeoGAF predicts an average (median) of 93,5 (as of 9h ago, based on 139 predictions at that time).
Wonder if this game will be able to live up to the hype!

Do you know if you have to beat it on hard to unlock crushing, or is it there straight away?
Thanks!
I wonder if the people who want a meltdown, will have a meltdown, if there's no meltdown over reviews. Would make for a great twist.

The only game to beat Uncharted 4 is this
Sunny Sanghera of Ubisoft seems very impressed by a PS4 exclusive that is still in development

Is this going to be the thread? Or will there be a new one
there'll be a new one

Me too. I played through UC2 and UC3 a long time ago. I only played through UC1 fairly recently, and doing so gave me a new appreciation for the story and characters. (since I had started from the beginning and all).
I'm still deciding on what I should actually do... Maybe I'll just play through UC2.

Surely a new offcial one like with every game with reviews updated in OP.
Maybe in terms of spectacle and visuals, but I doubt in terms of gameplay, characters or narrative.

Apparently, unlocked from the start. It's greyed out but you can select it. It'll ask if your sure or not.

meltd-
wow lots of goading ITT
people excited for the negative reactions gonna be like:
the fact that you are going to bring it up in the review thread just keeps other members on their toes with what they say
with the exception of juniors that don't care
