| S.T.A.G.E. said: Gears story might not be on par with Uncharted in quality but they are both action based TPS games. Their stories rely heavily on linearity, cinematics and set pieces. Much like I read once on a destructoid post, they said that Tomb Raider is a better Uncharted than Uncharted. It just goes to show how close Tomb Raider is in core mechanics to Uncharted itself in order to modernize itself. Yes, as i've already stated Uncharted learned its platforming and general indiana jones style tropes from Tomb Raider. Tomb Raider was always more about exploration and everyone knows that Sony has a hard on for story. Just saying though...if Uncharted would've followed Tomb Raider in the capacity that Tomb Raider followed Uncharted, the franchise would've been considered a true clone like Dantes Inferno to God of War. It also would've flopped hard. Watch this comparison video to see what I mean. Tomb Raiders reboot was largely uncharted with a larger exploration environment. I have the next Tomb Raider waiting as I am replaying Tomb Raider again so I can go from one game to the next fluidly. |
I guess we are just misunderstanding each other.Yes, I agree with you that the reboot tomb raider is largely influenced to Uncharted.Not to the point of a being a better Uncharted than Uncharted, since in my opinion it has enough content to differenciate itself from it, but i digress.And yes, I also agree that Uncharted has just inherited the general idea of the originals Tomb Raiders, but not all of it, and it is able to stand on its own.
Its so great to see when two games are so loved that people like you and me have this type of conversation.Its actually refreshing to see constructive arguments, when most people on sites like ign just known to troll or say nonsense.Well, im looking forward to UC4 and Rise of Tomb Raider, so im good nonetheless!
My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.
