| PearlJam said: Pretty much everything in Tomb Raider is better except maybe the graphics. The controls are tighter and more responsive, the platforming is better, etc. Uncharted's problem is that it isn't really that great at anything except graphics and presentation. But if you don't like what's being served, the game itself is pretty average at best. It's a mediocre shooter, people who play real shooters know this. The platforming is pretty limited compared to a real platformer. And it really isn't a good action-adventure because it is way too linear and too scripted to offer any real excitement. It's like watching a weak Indiana Jones reboot or something ghetto like that. Many people are tired of the Uncharted circle jerk, it really isn't that great unless you ignored everything but Sony exclusives. Tomb Raider is just a better game, but Uncharted is a somewhat decent movie. Some people might like that cast of Uncharted but I didn't care for any of them. Too generic and uninspired. Lara Croft is an icon, Drake is just some guy. |
Drake is just some guy? The character has more dimensions than lara has in her whole body. The real lara takes is a rich school girl who would rather stay a broad than at home and take what she wants from people. Drake is a comedic character with a background of being a street urchin, therefore hes a good thief as well as a great historian and treasure hunter for hire. He doesn't stick around when he sacks a tomb, he finds what he wants and leaves. Uncharted uses the narrative which hits you harder than makes it closer to home as to how he finds certain objects. This is why Crystal Dynamics took that and made the Tomb Raider game more linear. Tomb Raider hasn't been relevant in nearly fourteen, maybe fifteen years and comes back just happening to look like Uncharted and you're just immediately going to write off Uncharted? Her relationship with the other friends of hers is nowhere near as interesting as nathan drake either. If nathan drakes friends died I would actually care, Tomb Raider, nope. Its all about Lara and no one should forget that. She doesn't move like Lara, she moves like drake, she shoots like drake. The real lara runs in like an elegant rambo and cleans house, in this game shes just plain old rambo. It doesn't stop the game from being great, I just dont see where shes like the old lara.
