1) I would like to see your attitude towards using cover if you got in a gunfight in the real world.

2) I wouldn't choose any of these games over UC. I loved the original MGS (one of my top 3 games ever), but starting with the MGS2 the plot got so crazy that I can no longer hold the series in a higher regard.

4) What is annoying about you is that you cannot accept that UC games are incredible games, some of the absolutely best games of the entire generation and that you just don't fancy them. No. You can't accept that and you just have to keep talking crap about them, saying that they are overrated, that ND had to fool people into playing them, etc. You may have your opinion about the games, you may not like them, the problem is that you are the one denying other people their opinion (or rather - forcing your opinion on the whole gaming world) and it just happens so that these "other people" happen to be the majority of gamers counted in millions, while you are the odd one and you should respect it.

For me Uncharted is exactly the type of game I love most. TPP game, story driven, linear, with good characters, a plot set in the real world about discovering secrets and mysteries from the ancient world - everything I expect from the perfect dream game! I can't say a single bad thing about UC so far (haven't played them all yet though). This is the perfect type of game for me though. Uncharted: Golden Abyss happens to be my favourite Vita game as well.

 

@Impertinence - we are excited, because ND hasn't made a bad game since the original Playstation. Crash has defined the Playstation and had Sony not lost the rights to him (how!? Just how did they do that!?) it would still be the official Sony mascot competing with Mario. Crash kart game was the best competition Mario Kart ever had. They made 4 games this gen. UC1 was the best reason to get a PS3 in the early part of its life, while UC2/UC3/TLoU are all candidates for the game of the generation, pushing the boundaries of their genre.

They have made legendary platformers, great racers and mind-blowing TPP games. No matter what they made, it was always gold. This causes everyone to expect that whatever they make is going to be huge. MS hasn't got a single studio that comes close to it, on the Nintendo side they could be compared to Retro, though obviously they are far more advanced (Retro is just making the jump to HD) and bigger (2 teams on ND). Retro is pretty much a small ND :)

Not really. In fact, I don't really care if you like it or not - like it, then like it. I just keep replying because people are consistently disputing and saying that my opinion is wrong - and an opinion can't be wrong. I agree with the fact that ND can make a quality game, and so far, all of which I've played (all Crash games, some Jaks, UC1-2) have been made with care and (mostly) attention to details, just the latter ones are absolutely not for me for various reasons stated above and all I've said about them is my opinion. But we're obviously on very different sides of the barricade, seeing the rest of your post. 

@Hynad: Yeah, because SHMUPS are Action/Adventure games are the same thing! 2/10, try again.

MS have studios like Rare who owns bigger franchises then ND. 343 Studios makes 1 of the greatest FPS game in the world, i wouldnt even want to compare Nintendo games to ND because i can tell you Nintendos third tier franchises are prob in the same bracket as ND games. Im not a fan of niether console but ND seems to be getting this hype about them like there the greatest company in the world. I wouldnt put ND above Nintendo, Valve or Blizzard, and its a toss up if ND are better then Retro and 343.

?? Sales, popularity <> quality.....By that token COD is the best game ever????? ND accolades their last 3 games are unmatched in the industry..........Another strawman, nonsensical argument to deflect. How much mroe will uyou keep changing the goal posts? They have won more idustry awards then any of those studios you mentioned. Only valve are up there with ND of the oens you listed.

 

They earned their reputation, sounds like someone is a big defensive as Nd is not on their platform of choice.

All those companys i have mention have made massive dents in the awards industry. Doesnt matter who wins more awards, look at World of Warcraft, doesnt win any awards yet its claimed to be the greatest MMO ever to exist and still running. Halo is classed as 1 of the best FPS games to buy on the market. Mario and Zelda and heaps more franchises just own there genras, ND games are the same but i rate ND like i would with 343 and Retro. There not bigger then Valve, Nintendo and Blizzard and thats a fact. Google that one.

Well if the games that good shouldnt the masses be buying it? 5mill is an average sales count for a good game, its not legendary or great. Half Life 1 and 2 sold more then 12mill each, GTA and Cod sell over 10mill easy, Mario Kart and Halo sell over 8mill easy. Blizzard games sell more then 8mill. Games like RE 5 and 6 sell around the same as Uncharted or TLOU so does Tomb Raider.  NG games to me are no bigger then Resident Evil or Tomb Raider.
