How did U4 get a 93?

Sony bribes the media i guess. It's the only explanation that occurs to me.

I've really enjoyed U3. Thr graphics are mindblowing for previous gen, the story is good and gameplay is fine. I personally find the adventure, puzzle, story and mystery more important than shooting and I was happy with it.

Than you must really enjoy the fourth installment

I don't own a PS4, went with a gaming PC this gen, since I found the consoles too underpowered and expensive for what they offer. Neo and Scorpio prove my assesment was right.



Wii U is a GCN 2 - I called it months before the release!

My Vita to-buy list: The Walking Dead, Persona 4 Golden, Need for Speed: Most Wanted, TearAway, Ys: Memories of Celceta, Muramasa: The Demon Blade, History: Legends of War, FIFA 13, Final Fantasy HD X, X-2, Worms Revolution Extreme, The Amazing Spiderman, Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate - too many no-gaemz :/

My consoles: PS2 Slim, PS3 Slim 320 GB, PSV 32 GB, Wii, DSi.

Well I was a kid, I had 9 when I played OOT for the first time, but I was very used to videogames by that moment, In my house we had an Spectrum DX, an Atari 2600, a Mega-Drive, a GB and a Ps1, I used to play a ton of videogames and I remember that OoT was the biggest WOW I have ever felt in my life in that regaard, it really was, FFVII and MGS were big wows too but OoT was epic for me, and I didnt even had the console. 

Half-Life took the biggest WOW that year for me, just the start of the game alone was perfect. I was 24 at the time, loved OOT yet never saw it as revolutionary. Those big moments were Civilization in 91, Dune 2 in 92, Doom in 93, LBA in 94, Frontier First Encounters in 95, Tombraider in 96, FF7 in 97. Wind waker actually gave me a bigger wow than oot, I didn't want that game to end. So many epic games back then. (And time to play them, still not through Uncharted 4 and haven't even had the time to boot it up the past 4 days)

That's a great selection of wow moments, I would have probably wowed pretty hard with Half Life 1 if I played in 98, half life 2 is among my favourite games ever after all. 

Even if OoT was the biggest wow for me back then I actually like Wind Waker more too but the impact that OoT let on me on a first impression was way stronger.

Sometimes I think Sony has big pockets when if comes to naughty dog game reviews.

it has a 93 on Metacritic actually and would be a 94 if not for one random 4/10 from a mainstream newspaper.

It scores so well because the production values. But I can see why this thread exist. After a 4th in series people who dont really like this style of game are going to be tired of seeing it score so much better than titles they like.

Read the title again.

oh. ok. Why the hell are we talking about UC3? Saw the Uncharted and assumed we were discussing the game that just came out.



psn- tokila

add me, the more the merrier.

Sometimes you watch Crapgamer and Mooch.

Tbh, I'm a huge PlayStation fanatic, but Uncharted series never hyped me much like most people so hyped about. Tho Uncharted 3 is def better than an 7/10. I would say it's 9- out of 10.
I know most people rated Uncharted 2 as the best, but personally i think the 4th, the final, is the better one.
I rated 9.5+/10 btw.
As for the worst, Uncharted 1, i can't even believe it have 86 on metacritics.

Finally, Uncharted series is now over, i hope they get back to TLOU. The best gem of Naughty Dogs since Crash Banditcoot.

I replayed it back in December and it was one of the glitches games I've ever played.

By being great!

Seriously, those criticism, while partially true, are only nit picking about some aspects of the game, overall it's a great package and still much better than the vast majority of simply good FPS titles out there!

The first time I played the plane sequence, of the boat yard my jaw was stuck on the floor, I also loved the slower paced "forced walking" sections, like the desert, and the young Drake chapter... it's really hard for me to pick between 2 and 3... or even 4...

The only thing I find deplorable is the lack of reponse when you shoot on some enemies, it's not very satisfying, but hey, I never noticed it until one of those strange Uncharted 3 thread poped up.... just sayin' we don't need your negativity.

Uncharted 1 on the other hand has never been good, I recall not liking it back when it was first released, and still not liking it in the Uncharted collection box (however I finished it this time around).

The AI is terrible. There you have something.

Worse than terrible. Its especially surprising during stealth segments. Another flaw was how ND made the MP pay to win with ridiculous DLC weapons and perks.

I call BS on that. None of the DLC require you to pay anything. You unlock them as you get more kills.
