That's kind of splitting hairs. All 3 suck as "games" (ultra linear, enemy closets, poor shooting mechanics), it's how well they handle the character interaction and setpieces that matters with those games.

I'd take a PS4 Uncharted at launch if even just to see how good it looks.
I'd also take another Vita game.

A franchise that sells 5 million with each entry is not going a long break. God of War and Uncharted will keep getting more and more entries because Sony has struck gold with it.
You and jett really should switch tags lol
I'm sure Uncharted 4 will be PS4/Orbis we've had 3 games on PS3 already, plus like you say we have TLOU for PS3.

Screw Drake, give me Sully instead.

guys guys, lets not derail this thread with UC2 vs UC3 debate, we all know UC2 was the superior game, with that said, let continue speculating about UC4
I'm certain a Sully-focused prequel will happen eventually. It's too good an opportunity to ignore.

Maybe on the Vita. I really can't see the console games be anything but Drake focused.
Eh, Uncharted 4 for PS4 would be cool to see, but I'd much rather ND worked on something completely new like they're doing with TLOU.
Now this I would buy.

If it's for PS4 I want it now. It's not annual and ND are simultaneously working on new IPs such as Last of Us, so more Uncharted is fine by me.

I think he can be lead character material, make a new IP starring a guy like Charlie Cutter and I'm in.

The idea that linear games are inherently bad really needs to be put to rest. All games don't have to evince the same mechanics or structure. A diversity of experiences is good, and Uncharted shows why linear games can be effective if done well.

Aren't they making an Uncharted movie? I mean really making one and not "we bought the rites but plan to do fuck all with it".
Im holding it to higher standard, nothing wrong with that, Jesus Christ. I found UC3 boring, I was barely motivated to finish the game. UC2 is my game of the generation, so yeah going from one to the other the game to me WAS 'pretty bad'.
Sorry if that makes you uncomfortable or something..
I didn't say I hated them, just their gameplay. Pretty sure I put U3 on my 2011 goty list here.

I'd say Sony will be looking to Gears Judgement to inform its decision. The series isn't as character-driven as Uncharted, so it can potentially get away with having a different protagonist on a home console title, but it is largely the reason we have Uncharted at all.
In any case, Sully is adored, so I can see Uncharted: Sully's Moustache Edition going either way.

I would welcome a new Uncharted prequel with Young Sully on it. For the Vita of course.

That would be deeply disappointing to me. Any game that includes PS3/360/WiiU on it's platforms is going to be designed to cater for the weakest platform, significantly reducing the scope of what the game will be.

If Sony want to keep the magic they need to make sure fatigue doesn't set in. They have had this happen to other franchises before.

what if it's a vita game you guys
Is that what happened?!
That's why Charlie just disappears half-way through. He ran off to The Hobbit. Wow.
The Hobbit wasn't even good!
I've been thinking this myself. When ND shows their hand for Uncharted 4 minds are sure to melt! Hell I don't know if I am ready for it.

Better.
They are already working on a new IP so I dont see why this is any problem at all.
Its not a yearly franchise.

GA 2 is already a sure thing on Vita, and that's awesome.
Uncharted 4 is just as much of a sure thing though.
I would welcome GA2 if it's the kind of tech leap that happened from 1-->2 with Vita.
well if they are just starting then this could well be the last of us /u2 team. u3 team has to be working on something after u3 shipped end of 2011. the last of us wrapped production last month or so i believe.

So what's this about McTavish leaving halfway through UC3 development?
Between a TLOU demo and a potential Super Bowl ad, they're doing everything they can to counteract fatigue in one franchise right now.
That would be awesome.
He's one of the hobbits in The Hobbit. I assume that's why.

I'll just quote myself from a different thread...
As for the topic at hand, you guys are just jumping to conclusions.
