So Uncharted is copying Tomb Raider now?

It's a better quality franchise.  Underworld was the only true 7th gen Tomb Raider until the reboot and it wasn't that good.  While I like the Tomb Raider franchise, I'm not oblivious to reality.  Uncharted took things that Tomb Raider did and did them better.  And it had sharper writing.

I think Uncharted 2 and TR Reboot are the best in the genre (with an edge to U2).

I quite enjoyed Underworld, it's nowhere near the original Core's TRs, but it's pretty good TR game. On the other hand, I think Reboot is very average game (bar shooting mechanics) and horrid TR experience.

Hm, I'm getting deja vu right about here - I think we had this conversation before, but don't blame me, I hardly ever miss a chance to shit on Reboot and everything it stands for. ;)

I enjoyed it too (had like 900/1000 Achievement points!) but the story was kinda weak and there were no boss fights.

I think Uncharted was more action oriented.  In Uncharted 2, for example, if you took too long on any puzzle, thee game would just give you the answer.  Meanwhile, every Tomb Raider had puzzles that could stump you for hours (aside from Reboot).  But, at the end of the day, despite my preferences, I just look at how a game makes me feel when the credits roll.  Reboot was simpler but I was happier.

And I'm always up for a good debate!!
