Bold Prediction: Uncharted 4 won't be as good as Rise of the Tomb Raider (Metacritic)

Interesting. How does the original Tomb Raider reboot compare to Uncharted 2 and 3 for you?

Because for me Tomb Raider was excellent, a 9 out of 10, but the Uncharted games are fucking 10 out of 10 masterpieces. So it's highly unlikely it flips around this time. I'm waiting for ROTR on PS4 but I'll buy it day one for sure.

In my opinion, TR 2013 is a 9.5/10

 

Drake's Fortune: 8/10

Amongst Theives: 9.5/10

Drake's Deception: 9/10

Golden Abyss: 8/10

 

Keep in mind TR came out a while after the Uncharted games so it had the opportunity to improve over them.  I'd play it before any PS3 Uncharted game.  Uncharted 4 and RotTR will be released fairly close together and both companies seem to be bringing their best.  It'll be a closer call, I'm sure.

Ok, imo, the only aspects TR was better than the latter Uncharted games (always referring to 2 and 3, ignoring the others)  at, was exploration and puzzles. Maybe the climbing/traversal ends up more enjoyable because of those.

Oh and gameplay progression. The skills and upgrading weapons and shit. However Uncharted doesn't need that at all either.

 But in other aspects like graphics, gunplay, set pieces, story writing/telling, characters, attention to detail, Uncharted CRUSHES Tomb Raider.

This is of course my opinion, but I guess if you enjoy more TR's stronger parts, I can understand if you enjoy it more overall.

I don't see any of this changing between ROTR and 4, so for me U4 would have to be a major dissappointment so that ROTR comes close.
