No. Tomb Raider: Underworld stole some ideas from Uncharted because his success. Before Underworld the Tomb Raider series is a lot different (IMO). Gameplay is different... so different games. By the way Tomb Raider lost in the time. |
I just watched that video and it's pretty well done. And let me add that all of the Tomb Raider footage was from Tomb Raider Legend and Tomb Raider Anniversary--games released before Uncharted. You're right about the games being very different experiences, though. Uncharted is more shooter/action based. Tomb Raider is more exploration based. One more thing I want to point out is that there is virtually no move that Nathan Drake does in Uncharted 1/2 that Lara doesn't do in those games (except for Uncharted's cover system).
Another thing proven by the video in that link--At one point, it cuts between the environments from Uncharted 1 and Tomb Raider Legend. TRL came out in 2006 for the PC/PS2/Xbox (with a 360/Wii port released later). During that exchange, it was pretty hard to tell the difference between which scenes were from Tomb Raider and which scenes were from Uncharted. It just goes to show that, unless you have the games running at full resolution in front of you on an HD monitor, none of these pics/videos are painting accurate pictures of the games that they represent. Either the game is going to look better than it really does because of the compressed size or it's going to look worse than it really does because of the lack of clarity in the images.
Get the games running on an actual console (in your own house, if possible). I've done it. Uncharted 1 isn't the technical beast it was back in 2007 (although U2 still is).
(I'm still obssessed with this thread!)
