PlayStation posted a video of the statue on their snapchat, it looks awful

No it doesn't. You haven't seen awful.

Can't please everybody, with every decision. Colin from Kinda Funny thought adding in new mechanics was a negative to the game. Specifically he pointed to the rope saying "Drake couldn't do this before, why can he all of a sudden do it now?"

Poor Colin, how ever did he cope with Arthur's double-jump in Super Ghouls and Ghosts?
 
The more I think about how impressive it is to get one game a 94, let alone 4 in a row, the more I appreciate ND as a dev. I personally didn't care for Jak games during PS2 days but they created such an identity for themselves in the last 10 years, its really impressive. Kinda like From Software.

The anticipation a few years from now at E3 or where ever when they unveil their new IP will be nuts, They can go in so many directions.

The thing here is that ND are also excellent technically. While not important to everyone, superb visuals and consistent performance also helps to enjoy the experience. And i thing games with technical issues or arguably average visuals/sound considering the platoform they are running on, should have lower scores. So if Bloodborne has frame pacing issues, that should be reflected in the score.

Review threads help me identify the non-thinking irrational types on NeoGaf.

So true.
 
This has probably already been mentioned but I just watched the Kinda Funny unboxing of the Libertalia Edition and apparently there are spoilers in the art book. Just a heads up.
 
Because for some people, that was a good ending.

It was a good ending for me, as well. Doesn't mean the entire franchise should end just because Joel and Ellie's story felt "complete".

Even though I wasn't a massive fan of it myself, I thought it was a good self-contained story.

And like I said, I'd love to see what ND would do with a scifi universe.

Well, they're a team that's proven that they can work on two projects at once. So there would be nothing wrong with a new IP and TLOU 2 being made simultaneously.
 
lol there doesn't need to be a sequel, but of course we're gonna get one. A shame really. Give us some sci-fi ND, savage starlight style ;)

Again, there doesn't have to be a sequel to the story we got. They can introduce all new characters. Nothing wrong with that idea, along with, making a new IP.

I guess but there's nothing really to expand on. The story's finished (in a way) but I'd love to be proved wrong. Not every game has to be a sequel. It's basicly a tug of war between fans who want TLOU2 and a new IP. 50/50 really. Whatever they will choose it's gonna be at least 3-4 years out.

No tug of war from me. I offered the most reasonable solution - make both. A new IP and a new TLOU title.

Ohh I have no doubt they will make both, but prefer to have the new IP next to be completly honest. But anywho getting sidetracked here.

My Libertalia Edition is being dispatched from GAME.co.uk, FINALLY! :P
 
I wish they'd sell versions of collectors edition games with digital download codes bundled instead of discs. I'm fully digital on my PS4

I buy western releases digital and japanese games retail...but I reeeeeeeally wanted that artbook. So I had no chance ._. I hate it lol. But hey at least I'll be able to play tomorrow.
 
I wonder how many millions they will sell, considering?
- GREAT reviews
- 40 million install base
- Naughty Dog track record
- Lack of first party AAA games
 

You can't know that, it's Metacritic, every site has a different weight, I know that IGN has the biggest, I guess Gamespot is at the same tier as IGN as well, don't know about EDGE though, but if their 10 is worth 3 small publishers 10s it will get to 95.

Though I'm almost certain they're gonna give it a 9 so it's all just theory.

Well, if it's true that the best selling Uncharted on PS3 sold 10 million when there were ~80 million PS3s around, I guess 5 million

Lol
 
so, I listened to IGN's spoiler free podcast beyond episode.

Outside of the visuals and presentation it wasnt an overly positive 40 mins

Well, that is there opinion and if the justify it sufficiently then that is fine. Personally, I have never found IGN's reviews particularly helpful nor noteworthy.

Much like Ratchet and Clank reaching a sales milestone on the PS4, Uncharted will do the same. Selling the most copies and in the quickest time too, I imagine
 
OH YES. I didn't get to review Uncharted 4, but I did at least score my copy five days early thanks to my trusty local video game store! They even stayed open 15 minutes past closing time because I was in a screening of Captain America: Civil War when they called and the movie ended too late for me to get there before closing. They're the best. <3

I CAN'T BELIEVE UNCHARTED 4 IS FINALLY HERE AND I'M ABOUT TO PLAY IT. One of my top three most-anticipated games of 2016 to be sure, alongside Final Fantasy XV and Rhythm Heaven Megamix. See ya'll on the other side. :)
