Uncharted is Sony's Gears of War. No wait...Ratchet and Clank Future is.

Why Ratchet?

Anyway, of course not, Sony does not have a Gears of War, and having a Gears of War clone would achieve little, I want Sony to make games which are different M$'s

Don't worry. You'll have it back by 5 or the repairs are free.

What you said did not make much sense, it was half sarcastic, as Uncharted does actually have quite similar gunplay to Gears of War, even if they are completely different games

I'd put Uncharted more along the lines of a Tomb Raider Legend clone.

No, Uncharted is more focused on shooting than Tomb Raider, and in TR, you don't go around killing pretty much every minority... Yahtzee's Uncharted review was possibly the best one ever

Minorities? You're looking for El Dorado which is obviously in a south american country, and most of your adversaries seem to be hispanic in nature, or at the very least dark skinned. The only minorities I noticed in the game were Nathan Drake, Sully and the chick. It seems like the equivalent of saying you're shooting minorities in Resident Evil 5 when you forget the game takes place in Africa, regardless of whatever percantage that race may be in your own country.

I could run down numerous reasons as to why TRL and Uncharted are grossly similiar, but I'm sure you know that already and are merely using the singular argument that seperates them to seperate the two games entirely. If you can't see the obvious inspiration Tomb Raider was in the creation of Uncharted though, then nothing I can say is going to change that.

@ onxy,

1. He is going around gunning down minorities, if you choose to look at it that way, and it was more a parody of yahtzee's awesome review. He is doing what all the colonial powers did, invade a country and then kill any of the locals living there (the "minorities") who stood in their way. That is not really a major point that way, and it is only there if you look for it {though Drake does seem to just kill everyone that he meets about from Sully and Elena}

2. Of course I know it was inspired by Tomb Raider, Indiana Jones etc.. but in terms of gameplay, it also has a lot in common with Gears of War, in terms of fighting

1. I don't understand this still. You're comparing the killing of rival treasure hunters/merceneries that are likely of the dominant voting group of whatever country the game takes place in to colonial powers invading countries and killing off locals. Am I missing something because I haven't seen this review you speak of, becase frankly I don't get the connection at all. It seems like Yahtzee is another person like the NAACP bitching about something that is not really there.

2. I acknowledge it has some similarities to Gears of War. Mainly the cover system. However the remainder of the game is more or less lifted from Tomb Raider. Two weapons at a time, tropical setting, the platforming, treasure hunting vs. rival treasure hunters, supernatural elements, room puzzles, vehicle sections, smart ass main character; in fact the only thing that isn't similiar is the shooting and covering mechanic.

no..resistance is gears of war,killzone is halo!!

 

Not even close. Killzone, in terms of sales, is Sony's Fable. Maybe in terms of hype its Sony's Halo.
