Honestly? I don't care for racing games or sports games outside of Mariokart so I don't care for Gran Turismo (it's also why I don't much care for Xbox since one of its only reliable franchises is a slightly better racing game). as for Uncharted and The Last of us, I didn't find their gameplay compelling at all. The story and writing and characters were all best in the industry, but neither were particularly fun to play. Uncharted is super rudimentary and repetitive cover shooting with hilariously simple puzzles and 'press forward to do the platforming' sections, and The Last of Us is again super rudimentary shooting and crafting with remarkably basic stealth gameplay. I don't think any of these games are BAD, but I do not understand the hype for any of them. 

Hey no problem, I was joking, you can totally not like those games for any number of reasons, yours I know are from your taste not warmongering.

Oh I know, I figured it'd be good to explain.
