Forums - Gaming - Xbox boss on Uncharted: I wish we had an action-adventure game like that, but we don’t

Then make one. Are you in charge of a large number of great gaming studios with a silly amount of funds or not?



Hmm, pie.

But they have Gears. As far as I know they're pretty similar. Both 3rd person and with shooty guns.

You said the only two things about those two games that are similar.

One is a third person action game period. One is a third person action adventure with puzzles and stuff.

Actually, better take; one is like Starship troopers, the other is like star trek.

So they're both scifi?

lol... you must not have watched starship troopers and star trek.

hint... in one ppl shoot mindless aliens. In another people try and outsmart very smart aliens, (while still shooting at them of course)

So they're both about defeating aliens by using guns?

The similarities seem to pile up now.

I like Phil more and more everyday. He might not be the best PR person out there, but he definitely has that tone of "this is how i think/feel and I want you to know it" regardless of it being "PR" perfect or not.

That said, this is one of the few "big" SE franchises I can see work for a timed exclusive as far as both parties are concerned. Other franchises that SE has that are of this size or larger are to entrenched and would cost way to much to be worth it to MS (and thus worth it to SE). This one with the time frame of vs. Uncharted 4 makes more sense.

I'm sure Sony execs have said the same thing many times about Halo. I'm sure both Sony/MS would love to have Mario/Pokemon/Zelda on their side too.

I prefer Gears but Uncharted is a great franchise. Still waiting for Gears 4.

Neither have aliens.

Don't worry Phil, no one have it. ND is ND after all.

Yeah people have better games because its not hard to make mediocre games. 1 out of 4 Uncharted games is good (UC2) 1 is okay (UC3) 2 are crap (1 and GA)

Tbh to this day I wonder how Uncharted 1 got 2 sequels. Uncharted 2 is the first really good game made by ND but even that was predictable. UC3 is worse than UC2 and the Vita version is crap.  Even TLoU's A.I. is crap and its breaking its own rules.... and the game cant even run at 30fps with 1 enemy on screen (goes from 18-26 when there is some action)

Naughty Gods? my ass.

Well now I'm confused.

Calm down now, don't burst a blood vessel. Just because a lot of people like ND games, including critics, doesn't mean it's worth getting so mad over.

.....wow well hey you are free to your opinion....even if it is in the minority but I understand. There are highly rated games that I do not care for as well....but wouldn't come in and bash them in an opinion forum seems kind of out of place. Anyway I guess different strokes for different folks!!!
