| LudicrousSpeed said: STAGE you should really play TR Anniversary. It came out right before Uncharted and would really open your eyes as to how much TR actually owes or "stole" from Uncharted. Saying it wouldn't be where it is without Uncharted is really just flat out wrong, no other way to slice it really. Anyway as I don't care about Shenmue 3 or a FF7 remake, Sony's conference was good but nothing spectacular for me. I'm bummed that they didn't announce any good new software/OS features for PS4. MS is showing a new UI with Cortana, which should be just about the most amazing console OS element ever, plus BC, plus early access. To me that's almost as good as most of the games shown, but then they also had great Gears 4 stuff, and Halo 5. Also Cuphead. Among others. Uncharted and Horizon looked great for Sony. |
I am not talking about TR Anniversary. I am talking about the reboot, dude. Uncharted mostly took platforming, puzzles and tropes from Tomb Raider, but its core mechanics came from Killswitch, RE4 and winback just like Gears of War. The reason Uncharted was created was because of Gears of War.

RE4 is mostly credited with influence on Uncharted and Gears than any other game as far as cinematics and core gameplay are concerned. It was the third person shooter prototype before last gen. Killswitch also provided inspiration and in Uncharteds and Gears cover and blindfire. When you look at Tomb Raider today its essentially Uncharted with elements from other games.
