Don't we want games to keep setting higher bars in their genres? Uncharted took Tomb Raider and mashed it up with Indiana Jones. Tomb Raider came back, and I do hope it raised the bar on Uncharted. If there's an Uncharted 4 (hopefully on PS4) then just looking prettier but being largely the same as Uncharted 2/3 won't be enough.

Tomb Raider has hopefully challenged Uncharted for best in genre and hopefully someone will up the ante some more. Maybe ND has decided to leave Uncharted behind, but I feel like they might want to milk the franchise just one more time.

Naughty Dog will not drop the golden goose known as Uncharted, they will continue to mold it into something great and truly try to flesh out the multiplayer. Sony expanded Naughty Dog into two teams with one working on Uncharted and the other working on The Last of Us. Tomb Raider took everything down to the multiplayer and added little things ontop of it. To me it felt more like Uncharted with a chick than Tomb Raider. Lara Croft are two totally different people and thats about the only difference I felt. I might just use my roommates PC because hes done with the game. I've been watching while he plays it.

If they want my money that's precisely the wrong area to place too much focus. I say take the game to the open world. Slightly upgraded graphics from UC3, but the lion's share of PS4 power used to make Uncharted 4 a quasi-open world game. Not too open world because then you lose the tight cinematic story experience, I'd like something exploratory for an open world rather than side missions.
