pretty stupid points. That being said, i they like giving out 9.9's and 9.8's, but couldnt find other 10 on the site.

They also have bad taste by rating PES a lot lower than Fifa. Or F4 than GT5.

it would be breaking every moral code i have to agree with them.

15 hours from now the IGN review will be put up.
10/10

Pretty much. Greg Miller is reviewing it,and if his coverage of the AMC event was any indication, it's very likely it'll be close to 10/10.

Guys, come on, we all know that Uncharted 5 will be set in Antarctica as an ode to Lovecraft's "At the Mountains of Madness" where it turns out Lovecraft's writing was based on experience, not his whacked out imagination. Drake fights Cthulu and a crazed cult trying to resurrect him.

Easy, Hitler sent a team to Antarctica to obtain the powers of creatures from beyond the cosmos, but they got royally fucked up and some of them got turned into like... tough fish-people.









Full disclaimer, I've never actually read any of Lovecraft's work.

Seriously, this R'lyeh would be an awesome setting. Sunken city in the South Pacific according to Wikipedia:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R'lyeh

Just imagine North's smooth voice narrating the story...

The nightmare corpse-city of R'lyeh…was built in measureless eons behind history by the vast, loathsome shapes that seeped down from the dark stars.

Drake will get to the mountain, and discover that he was the Nazis all along.

Then he was Nazis, and foughted Cthulhu.

they didn't change/remove the stealth from Uncharted 2 did they?

that said, I'd love to see ND try full on proper stealth game with dragging bodies to hide them, alert state, and heightened enemy awareness. really love the super streamlined control Uncharted 2 have (as opposed to very complicated MGS control, although MGS is still really really good)

Why should I buy this game when it's only getting poor reviews?

I don't get the linear complaint, I mean how do you go into a game like U3 where all 2 predecessor were linear and knock the game on that when It's clear that what the developers are trying to achieve is a linear game?

Anyway, good score.

There are different degrees of linear. Uncharted 2 allowed for a medium amount of creativity in approaching most gunfights. It could easily have been more linear, like a CoD game or some corridor shooter.

All speculation of course. Most "I don't get the X complaint" comments don't carry much weight without experiencing the game oneself.

Fair Point. The translation does make it sound like they are hinting it's too linear which You can easily interpret as the game might be more linear than U2.

Right, my biggest fear is always that ND becomes too enamored of scripted Holy Shit moments where you have little or no control, instead of providing fun, creative, vertical level design. Uncharted 2 combined the two amazingly and seamlessly, e.g., the entire helicopter battle in Nepal, the train, the trucks. Hopefully Uncharted 3 will deliver similarly.

Well, think of it this way- It must be telling, the fact that the only bad stuff they could put in the bad column is linearity and stealth.

93% to 94% metacritic. Won't get as many 10's as UC2 did, but it will get enough high 9's.

Game will be amazing regardless.

OT but I really like your avy. That would be such a crazy/cool twist if that was true.

Thanks... Yeah, but it would score awfully due to being unoriginal and for borrowing too much from Terminator.

People are still knocking down games for being linear?...

Does every single game need to be open world with non linear progression?

Nope just open world with linear progression.

Xenoblade, the Game of the Century would like to speak with you.
