Yes Im aware that sony wanted a more realistic game, but it was Naughty Dog who came up with Uncharted not Sony.  And as I said other games does cinimatic games and has done it before uncharted.  It was being progressed before uncharted.  As I said, this is about consoles not games or developers.  This is just people showing bias opinions and yes Im looking at you on this too.


I'm confused, which of the following don't you agree with?:

1. Uncharted had a great impact on the gaming industry.

2. Without the PS3/Sony, Uncharted would not exist.

3. Therefore, without the PS3/Sony, there would never have been such a great impact on the industry.

4. The PS3/Sony were necessary for much of how the gaming industry has shaped.

Which of these don't you agree with? Yes, there has been cinematic games; I never said or implied that Uncharted was the first cinematic game. So, again, where from the above, is the disagreement coming from? 

You seem to agree with numbers 1-3, but you disagree with number 4. Why?


1. I agree with. But cinimatics were already there before uncharted so it did not bring anything new.  It was just a great game that perfected its story with good gameplay mechanics.

2.  I agree with youm but once again sony did not make uncharted.  Sony said make a realistic game, they did not say make a cinimatic puzzle shooter game.  That was on naughty dog.

3. Disagree. They did not shape cinimatics what so ever as that has been there for a while before uncharted, and even then unchated was made by naughty dog not sony.

4.  PS1, PS2 definitely shaped many things for this generation but the most obvious game changers this generation going into next generation has been 1. Motion controls.  2.  Achievements.  3.  Multiplayer gaming.

While sony has helped shape this industry in the previous generations they did not bring anything new to gaming this generation.  I will give credit where it is deserved.  Naughty Dog gets credit for making an amazing game but it wasnt even the most inluential game this generation.  That would probably be call of duty.  I dont even like call of duty all that much and I can admit that.  It has the whole cinimatic approach, online gaming, perks, aim down sights, etc etc.  

Then when it comes to TPS, I would say Gears is the most influential with its cover system.  Am I giving credit to MS for EPICS success, NOPE.  EPIC made it MS published it.  MS had nothing to do with how the game finished just like Sony had nothing to do with how Uncharted finished.  All I can say about publishers is it was a smart choice investing in those games.
