There is an Uncharted Collection on PS4. Play it. They're good games. Also not that expensive.

They tested it now they test again with server load for experience purposes.

If you didn't like it in the previous title, Rise likely won't do anything for you, either.

IGN is heavily weighted. That 8.8 will really drop the score.

well you probably won't get as much out of the characters
Fucking phenomenal scores, and judging by few bits I've read it looks like this great ending of the Drakes journey, and that "low reviews" are complaining that ND did not change the "winning formula" enough for their taste. This is Uncharted game through and trhough, and not industry-changing masterpiece like U2 was. Fine by me.
Can't freaking wait to play it.

You really should play the Nathan Drake Collection on PS4 if you can.
Do you believe there is a good chance for that?
I know U4 is supposedly better but they were really harsh with QB.
Uncharted relies a lot on its characters and their relationships build throughout all the games so you would be missing a lot I would say.
I don't really have the time available to playthrough all those, but if it will soar the experience of 4 without playing them, then maybe I'll have too.......
Edit : Ok, looks like I'll have to play all the previous games then!

I'm not even surprised at this point. ND are based.

I hope they show the PS4 Neo version at E3.
I'd say you should at least play 2
1&3 you can watch on YT but story wise the series is pretty entertaining and being the last game a little attachment to the cast will surely improve the experience
Hmm yeah the weighting system may indeed change things up, but the biggest sites already gave their reviews apart from IGN (likely 9 or below) and Giant Bomb, so it should only go for more stability.
By the time of that post the score just changed to 94 from 93.
And of course I don't "know" It's just an educated guess. I find 95 very unlikely to be settled on.

Shouldn't really. Brad was always very high on the series even back to the first one. Jeff was always just outspoken how he never liked the twist and how the game fell off.
Could be totally wrong and It's dumb to speculate on someone's personal review but I'd be reasonably surprised if Dan didn't give this a 5 based on how he reviews and what this game purportedly brings to the table. He's a fan of the series and this game adds more combat freedom and is an absolute stunner technically. Unless he hated some narrative choices, this getting the same score as Ratchet would be weird.
I'm personally more interested what Giant Beast thinks of it since it's a lot more varied audience on the east coast.
Druckley are my favorite duo of this industry. They have now proved TLOU was not a shot of luck. These guys are the best in the industry IMO.
I dunno, the games play like a good blockbuster and the archetypes and relationships are not complex. I say go for it if you don't wanna play through the whole series just yet.
Every Naughty Dog title they've reviewed on the site (Uncharted 2, Uncharted 3, The Last of Us, and Left Behind) all received 5/5.
Just watch the playthroughs on youtube if you don't have the time.
It wont. You'll enjoy UC4 with or without the other three. They're really good though, and you should give all of them a try, or at the very least 2.
Nice one, Naughty Dog
Awesome!

Yeah, why not. I think there is a good chance. I don't think Dan will give this game 4 stars if it's basically a 9/10 game.
Uncharted 3 and TLoU have 5/5 reviews on GB.

I'm in for anything they make.
Agree, they are awesome, TLOU2 is going to be amazing.

It's a bit better but still completely forgettable.
There's just this lack of charisma and emotional resonance that ND for example does so well that makes it hard to care about what's going on. Still a great game though.
Also, people really obsess over metacritic huh?
Right with you there bud.

Just watched Kinda Funny review and they were adamant that a lot will be lost on the player if Uncharted 4 is his/her first Uncharted. For context, I remember Greg saying a long time ago on Podcast Beyond in regards to Uncharted 3 that you don't at all need to play the other games. So, in his eyes at least, yes, you will be missing out on a lot as this game plays it very differently.

Nope, you're right on time.
4 stars translate to 80 on MC, so it can bring the score down even though the reviewer see it as a 9.

Their average is is prob above 90 since Metacritic is counting Golden Abyss, and that is no a ND game
