Um, no they didn't.  UCC was already announced, and in the pipeline.  They did not push UC4 back and suddenly announce UCC in it's stead, that's false.

And while it's their only 1st party title launching in the holidays, they've released plenty this year, and coupled with the other massive titles releasing in the holiday, they're going to murder their competition, yet again.  Microsoft 'might' win a few months around the holiday, but Sony's strategy of playing the entire year is quite clearly winning this gen.


Not true at all. Uncharted 4 was delayed in March. Nathan Drake Collection was announced in June.

I'm sure Bluepoint worked on NDC last June. How very convenient.

The collection was always planned to launch before Uncharted 4... even before delay.
They are working on it for a good time.



The Taken King doing amazing yet.

~ 10.5k

24/09/2015 to 10/10/2015 is a month?

11/09 to 12/10 sounds like a month to me. What are you talking about?


FIFA 16 released on the 24th.

Right, so a 3 month gap between the delay and announcement is suddenly interjecting UCC in it's stead?  And, we're to believe that it takes 4 months to remaster 3 games? 

No, I think that they knew that they wouldn't make the Q4 window with Uncharted 4 a lot earlier than they announced. So they started making Nathan Drake Collection, announced the delay, and announced the collection months later. How long would ports of just the single player take?

Considering all 3 games would need additional efforts just to get it to run on the PS4's architecture, a lot longer than the window you're talking about.  Still doesn't change the fact that UCC wasn't meant to be a 'replacement' for UC4.  It was always coming and had been something ND had talked about for awhile, after Sony highlighted how many people who didn't have a PS3 in the previous gen, were now buying PS4's.

Again Uncharted Collection was always planned to release before Uncharted 4... even before delay... it was to the new PS gamers play the first games before play Uncharted 4.



LOL the hate is real and I assume most of you guys are adults so its sad. Guys, Uncharted did absolutely fine for a remastered game out for 2 days. The article starts "It’s [Fifa 15] now halfway to matching its predecessor’s six week unbroken run at the top in 2014".

Are you honestly surprised by this outcome (MCC on top by a large margin in the UK)?

Yes. I am. 


Okay, what kinda ratio did you expect between NDC and MCC?



Hi everyone. We're getting a few reports from this thread, so please try to keep it as civil and on-topic as possible.

Thank you.
