@ staude, I hate horror games, and to see my favourite developed going that way disheartens me, but I do agree a twist was needed, but it did not need to be so scary

@ barozi, I wouldn't agree that they look better than Uncharted, but they do still all look very good, though I am less sure about a few of them since I have not played them at all. For most of these I am just going to have to compare SD versions, but on an HDTV, I do think Uncharted looks better than GeoW 2, which I would think is its main competitor

Its funny how Uncharted still is the king of graphics even though it was out in 2007. No 2008 game had better graphics. Well maybe GT5: Prologue, but that would be the only one.

no, Gears 2 is...

The rest is opinion which can't be argued but Nathans movement was "affordable" you couldn't have played the game i'm talking about ... seriously .

See what I'm sayin'?

I've played the same Uncharted game everyone did and Nate's movement especially in the parts with the fixed camera is not good for sure. Unless you consider this very good, so, really, I don't know how many other third person action games you played in the last 3 years.

I'm shocked by this honestly , since Uncharteds animations are so average could you cite an example of quality animation ?

@NinjaKido
Again, I'm particularly talking about the FIXED camera sections of the game (the platform ones. Tell you found it funny to jump from pillar to pillar, cause many times I found it almost frustrating)

EDIT:

Gears 1, Gears 2, Assasin's Creed (Altair's movement is breathtaking), MGS4, Splinter Cell and many many more...

*waits for people to start posting epic's fake screenshots*

edit:

Is this place always like this ?

Immature rants about who's got the better graphics and sale ? FFS, just enjoy the games.

@ staude, here is a more length response:

I wouldn't call what I want a kid platformer, I just want something more light hearted, that I can sit back and soak up and a game that will keep me smiling. Like I said, I hate horror games, I just don't understand how people can enjoy them, and I don't want to have to stop playing ND's games because they become too horrific. Insomniac have started making Resistance games, which incorporate survival horror elements, which is why I chose WaW over R2, but that game clearly holds a darker theme throughout. Uncharted was seen as being that summer blockbuster, that everyone can enjoy, and I just don't think zombies are the right place to take it to keep that same feel

In terms of giving people want they want, it could well have been one of the ND devs who said something like: "people say they want something completely new, but what they really want it the same thing with a sprinkling of something new." And I completely agree with that, but I don't think that sprinkling of something new should be horror, stealth elements are certainly a better incorporation to mix up the gameplay a bit more, maybe incorporate some free running?

I agree that games are an experience, which I why I loved Prince of Persia, it may be easy, but instead of concentrating very hard, just sit back and admire the scenery. Heavenly Sword may have been slightly weak on the gameplay, but it did tell a great story and that is why I thought it was a great game. Uncharted also has a good story and as I have said, it was probably in need of a twist, but the horror elements totally changed the complexion of the game, and I don't think they really appealed to the target demographic as those who bought it were expecting something relaxing and light hearted, and that was changed into a much darker tone

Idk if its only me but i played the Uncharted Demo about 2 weeks ago since I bypassed this game in 07 and I dont see the big Fuzz about the Graphics...I seen a couple games which look better than Uncharted...and Killzone 2 blows it out the park from the screen shots and gameplay movies Ive seen...got to play the game first to give an accurate answer...
