Gears influenced he first half of the gen, but Uncharted ultimately ran withe the show, Star Wars 1313, Tomb Raider, InFamous, and other more successful looking games have taken a page out of its book.

Agree with the bold (particularly 2007 and '08). By 2009, games of the gen had come into their own, and the Gears cloning had slowed to a minimum. Uncharted has had a recent surge of similarly designed cinematics and character interactions, but I feel this has had minimal impact as well.

To carry the influence torch, in my eyes, you have to have made an impact like no other games before and continue to do so. Call of Duty and Wii Sports are about as impactful as we've seen all generation.

Star Wars 1313 comparison

The game ripped Uncharted just like the last Star Wars game ripped off God of War. I mean the animations are so similar. Its not a bad thing that Lucas Arts has a thing for Sony games directing and style.

Star Wars 1313 full cinematic style, cinematic to gameplay immersion, cliff hanger climbing gameplay (down to the animation).

Its the truth man, I dont want to go looking for the second half where they actually shoot and fight, because its blatantly obvious.
