    Uncharted: Drake's Fortune was alright.
    Uncharted 2: Among Thieves blew it out of the water and was almost perfect.

    Uncharted: Drake's Fortune was alright.
    Uncharted 2: Among Thieves blew it out of the water and was almost perfect.
    Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception had a lot to live up to, it wasn't as good as 2, but it had its moments.

    Uncharted 4: A Thief's End was.... a big let down.
    Nathan Drake is retired and happily married to Elena. What else would you want for them? And quite literally out of nowhere, because never is he mentioned previously, Nate has a brother. This is inconsistent with the series because when Drake and Sully are recalling their history in Uncharted 3 when they're in the woods before entering the chateau, never was Sam mentioned. Neither was he in the flashbacks in U3.
    Sam was created out of nowhere for the sole purpose of this game, and if you ask me, It's something you just don't do. I never liked Sam since he was announced and the game didn't really do much to make me like him, so I don't really care for him.

    The first few chapters of Uncharted 4 would have been better if Uncharted 4 was released 10 years from now. As a fan of the series, they were appreciated but taking a big step back and looking at the whole thing, it just doesn't have lasting impact.
    One reason for this is because Uncharted 4 is the slowest paced game in the series. It took too long for things to kick into high gear.

    in Uncharted 2, chapter 5 is when it starts to get good, but at least the pace picked up in Chapter 3 and 4.
    In Uncharted 3, things pick up almost immediately with the bar scene, slows down a bit, but picks back up not too long afterward. Uncharted 3 does this throughout the game and if you ask me, just doesnt make it as good as 2.

    Uncharted 4 on the other hand, doesn't pick up the pace till the very end of Chapter 9!!!! Uncharted 4 is a much slower game. If not, the slowest Uncharted.
    Possibly influenced a little too much by The Last of Us. That's not even mentioning a few other things it took from Naught Dog's previous game.

    Was a wrong to expect train/airplane crazy moments in Uncharted 4?I mean, this Uncharted we're talking about.
    I was replaying the big moment in Chapter 11 and I noticed something was off. It just wasn't as fun as it should be.
    So I looked back on some videos i have saved from Uncharted 2 and 3.
    The insane moments of Uncharted 2 and 3 had some epic, Indiana Jones-esque, adventurous, music that just made the moments so much more better. Uncharted 4 just doesn't have it in it's single best moment and it is such a big disappointment.

    That is my overall take with Uncharted 4: An Unnecessary Sequel. A slow paced, unevenful, anticlimactic sequel.

    I gotta give credit where credit is due tho.
    The graphics are freaking great.
    The acting is superb.
    Cinematography was alright.
    The story was the best told story in an Uncharted game.
    and although the antagonist was the most human and least cartoonish ,they just cant beat Lazarovitch.

    Uncharted 4 was a big disappointment to me. It was unoriginal and extremely repetitive with very unimaginative gameplay.

The story was obvious and paper thin and had long and useless dialogue moments that serve no real purpose for the plot. The pacing wasn't the best either...

    There are a lot of people giving a zero score to this game - they should think again. But the thousands of people giving this game a perfect score should also. I just finished this game, and can't say it lives up to the hype.

    First - as other reviewers have pointed out - the absence of Amy Hennig, the director of the previous Uncharted games, is thoroughly felt. In the first seven levels of Uncharted 4 the new directors try to give Nathan Drake a personal backgroundstory: his marriage problems, his issues with his brother and his boring 9 to 5 job. But is this really that interesting? Does this really belong in an Uncharted game? I remember Nathan Drake as the carefree adventurer, who doesn't have to worry about his wife or feel guilty about a long lost family member. The new directors make Drake far too serious. This is Uncharted we're talking about, not The Last of Us.

    Fortunately, in the eight level the game really kicks in and the old Uncharted vibe starts. For Uncharted veterans, it's probably familiair territory, even so that I couldn't sometimes help but feel "been there, done that". The addition of two new elements - the grapple hook and stealth-mode - isn't probably enough to make veterans of the series feel involved. Besides, there are two games that make use of these elements in a far superior way: the Tomb Raider reboot and Metal Gear Solid respectively.

    Furthermore, there is a lot of climbing in this game. A lot more then in the previous games, and maybe even too much. Besides, the climbing isn't that much of a challenge. Falling down almost becomes a challenge in itself.

    Last but not least, the characters aren't that interesting. Why bother watching great looking cutscenes when the characters in it aren't engaging? Sam is a pretty shallow guy, and Elena is just the average perfect wife. I always preferred Chloe, she had much more humor, was sensual and had much more personality. Only Sully is still interesting, as is Nathan himself - although he should have more of his trademark ironic oneliners.

    All in all: the game looks gorguous and the controls are great. Especially newcomers to the series should buy this game. But in the end, I'm personally kind of relieved this is the last Uncharted game. Unless Amy Hennig comes back, but that's a long shot.

    TL:DR: Uncharted 4 is a very beautiful and engaging game with great characters which unfortunately suffers from lack of customization and platforming gets repetitive by the end

    Story and characters 9/10: All our favorite characters are back: Elena, Sully, Nathan. And of course, the plot revolves around a treasure and a villain who wants it for himself. But it's not the plot which makes the story good (let's face it, the plot is OK), but rather the interactions between the characters and the emotional moments they experience. Except for one or two scenes, the story is mostly your typical National Treasure plot: "and this will lead to another clue, and this will lead to another clue"

    Music, graphics and animations 9/10: Both are very much on the level. In one scene, the background noises subtly disappear and only the music is left, creating a very surreal feeling. The graphics are par for the course: everything looks wonderful. Now, animations is there the game occasionally stumbles: while the hair movement is very natural, and moving through high grass and taking out enemies feels almost too real, the climbing animations are absolutely unrealistic, with Nathan basically clipping to where he needs to be despite clearly not having enough reach or momentum. To me, that killed the platforming so much that by the end I just wanted no more platforming at all. Alas, the game creators thought otherwise, and the game is VERY platforming heavy, with occasional bursts of enemies to have fun with.

    Gameplay and replay value 8/10: so, as I mentioned before, I did not like platforming at all, despite how beautiful the views are. The combat, on the other hand, is great. Each area can be approached with stealth or guns blazing, and detection meters help understand when there's a risk of being spotted. I have managed to clear quite a few areas without breaking stealth. Sometimes there's no other option other than start shooting, and the game is fun here as well: the guns have weight to them, whether you are using a pistol or a grenade launcher. So yes, very fun. However, since there's no customization options, once I went through an areas with stealth and guns, that's it. The game realizes that - the menu after end game even gives you direct access to all the combat encounters directly, so you can skip all the walking and climbing.

    Multiplayer: I don't play MP and I don't care, sorry.

    Overall, it's definitely a must play, but in the long term YMMV.

    My review of Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End for the PS4

    Pro.

    Great Story & Writing - One of the things I like about the Uncharted series is it writing and that continues with Uncharted 4 (to me it comes off as the video game version of the Indiana Jones movies).

    Beautiful Visuals - Like the last three games in the series once again Naughty Dog show that when put in the hands of the right developer you can have a game that look, sounds and play good as well

    Lengthy Single Player campaign - With over 22 chapters in the game it will take you about 13 hours to complete (depending on what difficultly you pick and engage in finding hidden treasure in each chapters and partaking in the optional conversations that appear in each chapters then the game might be a little bit longer). For someone who enjoys games that have a strong single player content this is good.

    Solid Third Person Shooter Mechanics - For me the controls (in regards to the shooting part) are spot on. While you can turn on the aim assist in the option menu I chose to turn it off. As for the the other parts the hand to hand combat it good and I definitely like the stealth elements they added to Uncharted 4

    Cons.

    Ok Hand to Hand Combat - While I won’t goes as far as saying the hand to hand combat in Uncharted 4 is bad (by all means its not) I have to say its not as good as the ones found in the WB games like the Batman Arkham series or last year Mad Max. to me it doesn’t feel as fluid as those games were.

    30fps for the campaign - While certainly not terrible I find it odd (and somewhat disappointing) that the single player mode can run at 30fps while the multiplayer (which I’m not really good at though) runs at 60fps. Maybe its me but to me this is odd because Doom recently came out and that game is able to run at 60fps on both the campaign and the multiplayer.

    Overall - Its sad that this is probably Nathan Drake last adventure (which is sad by the way) but if this is his last adventure then to me it’s going out with a bang. Uncharted 4 is a personal favorite of mine on the PS4 and its definitely worth your time and money.

But i gotta say i did miss the bombastic set pieces of the previous two games. That being said this is still the best Uncharted game by far and probably the best game of this generation so far. 9.8/10

    The game looks wonderful the puzzles are fun and the story is interesting. All the locations,characters and themes are fantastic. I just feel like the game drags on at times and 5-10% of the climbing and shooting are almost "filler" but none the less an amazing game and nice wrap up to the Nathan Drake Uncharted series.

    Not a BAD game, but absolutely generic and blown out of all proportion by hype and marketing. I was expecting something amazing after the years of anticipation.

    It was amazingly flashy and well put together with some great scripting and storytelling but I think far more could have been done to make it a fresh experience, instead of cliche upon cliche and the same old boring mechanics. Far too easy as well. I mean it was seriously easy. The fun should have been in the challenge, and then it would have been worthy of a replay perhaps, but there was no challenge.

    Maybe a bit harsh but I have to balance the hype. It's just not up to scratch. And the actual game looks nowhere nears as good as the trailers did. So much was taken out. I think that also subtracts from the immersion.

    3.5/10 but I can't give 0.5's so I gave it 4.

    Naughty Dog has a long history with the action-adventure genre, and with the latest installment in the Uncharted series, their tenure and experience with this style of game really shows. This is easily the best entry in the series thus far. With engaging characters and fantastic set-pieces, Naughty Dog didn’t disappoint for our last adventure with Nathan Drake. Every segment felt polished,Naughty Dog has a long history with the action-adventure genre, and with the latest installment in the Uncharted series, their tenure and experience with this style of game really shows. This is easily the best entry in the series thus far. With engaging characters and fantastic set-pieces, Naughty Dog didn’t disappoint for our last adventure with Nathan Drake. Every segment felt polished, important and intentional, it was refreshing to play a game where something wasn’t just thrown in to be filler. Your companions throughout your adventure also don’t feel like dead-weight, often being surprisingly helpful, whether it’s spotting enemies for you or occasionally lending you a helping hand like throwing a punch when an enemy has you in an arm-bar. Also with tons of extra un-lockable audio, visual, and game play modifiers there’s tons of replay value here for a single-player focused game.
    From beginning to end, Naughty Dog does an excellent job of introducing characters, old and new, in such a way a new player to the franchise wouldn’t feel lost or out of place in the story. Meanwhile, there’s a ton of character development for players who have been with Nathan since the first installment to feel engaged and want to see what happens next in the story, and they’ve littered the game with small homages and tributes to past games for attentive players to find and enjoy.
    Along with new characters, they’ve introduced a few new mechanics such as a grappling hook, and off-roading sequences. Nathan’s grappling hook feels like something that should’ve always been there, not over-used and simple in its mechanics. Whether its for movement, puzzles, or that extra edge in combat to pull off a majestic swinging leap to punch a "baddy" in the face, it always feels smooth and natural.
    The newly introduced off-roading segments provide an enjoyable break from the sometimes overly linear game play Uncharted is known for, while you can just go straight to the next objective. There’s also incentive to explore the beautifully crafted environments to find small ruins that contain some of the collectible treasures littered throughout Uncharted’s single-player mode.
    Naughty Dog is no stranger to creating beautiful environments, whether it was the previous installments in the series or The Last of Us, they know how to create captivating yet believable set pieces. There’s always something that grabs your eye, whether it’s wildlife, or the gloriously rich foliage in the tropical locales. Every detail has carefully designed to be realistic and engaging, from the crusted dirt on the characters to the footprints left in the dirt or sand. Uncharted 4’s sound lends as much to the immersion as it’s visuals do, from the subtle sound of the ocean rolling in and out, or populated market in Madagascar, they do an incredible job of making you feel there. Everything adds a subtlety to the immersion whether it’s a slight echo while walking through a tunnel or banter between characters, nothing feels forced or out of place.
    Uncharted has always been known for playing out like a good action-adventure movie and this one is no exception. Every cut-scene is masterfully executed with with brilliant voice acting and some of the best facial animation that’s been seen thus far. Every interaction between characters felt genuine, and every intense story moment had believable and authentic reactions from characters. Towards the end of the journey they didn’t feel like characters anymore but more like real people with true personality and emotion, something that wasn’t as pronounced in the previous iterations of Uncharted. And with a satisfying epilogue that leaves room for another possible entry in the series, it was still a satisfying conclusion for our journeys with Nathan Drake.
    "..they didn’t feel like characters anymore but more like real people with true personality and emotion.."
    While Uncharted is known for it’s beautifully crafted single-player mode, it’s multiplayer modes are nothing to scoff at. With 8 maps and 4 modes to play, there’s enough variation there to be engaging, and not too many modes so that it makes it hard to find a match. Naughty Dog has also promised that any new maps and modes will be free, following the lead of many other developers knowing that if that they don’t they would end up with a segmented player base which can easily kill the multiplayer portion of any game. With loads of character and load out customization Naughty Dog is just hitting their stride and we’re plenty excited to see what they come up with next for Uncharted multiplayer.
    Uncharted 4 never seems to miss a beat with great pacing, characters and amazing set-pieces, it’s games like this that wash the bitter taste of lack-luster AAA gaming out of our mouths and gives us something to really sink our teeth into. The only shortcomings are the archaic cover system which could’ve used a re-vamp and a lack of enemy types, but this never detracted from the

Several firefights had me dying multiple times before figuring out how to clear the arena before I could move on. Or retrying a particularly difficult climbing/navigation sequence to get to the next check point. I was challenged and remained delighted. The end felt noble.....right......if a bit post-climactic.

    Nate will get dirty when sliding in the mud and the mud will wash off when he jumps in the water, the comments from your partners make sense and make them feel alive, and the set pieces are some of the best I've seen in any game.
    The locales are also diverse. Storywise it is a bit cliche but very passable.
    But in the end the only new thing it brings is a grappling hook a lá Rise of the Tomb raider and refined gunplay compared to the older titles. If you like the old titles you will like this game. I have beat it on hard, then replayed some chapters to catch some trophies, I spent some 20h or so in sp (I explore every nook and cranny) and some time with mp but I feel now I'm done with it for atleast a few years. That beeing said, it was very well spent 20h for me and I feel I got my moneys worth on the SP alone.
    Drawback... well it's on ps4 only for one, I'd love to see this game on pc at 60fps and with performance bringing the already beautiful locations and gameplay to life even more.
    No but actually apart from some minor typical console AAA attributes like having the controls ripped from the player in a slow walking looking at stuff or follow this NPC sequence, there isn't much to complain about.

    This is a very story heavy game. Its about 65% story delivered via cinema and in game moments and about 35% gameplay. What i mean by gameplay is the actual shooting and puzzle solving i do not include the walking or driving around for 10 min listening to dialog. Yes its gameplay but its basically walking simulator gameplay.

    The shooting is much improved over previous entries but the exploration is still far too easy and obvious. You always know where Nathan needs to go and what he needs to do. He also climbs 1000% faster than the assassins in assassins creed. Nathan Drake is the strongest most limber man alive and the speed at which he climbs around kind of kills immersion because its incredibly unrealistic.

    I can easily forgive gameplay shortcomings but my main issue with this game is i just dont care. I dont like any of the characters...at all nor do i care about their quest. In The Last of Us i was motivated by the characters and story but here im just pushing myself through because i paid $60 and dont want it to be a waste.

    Naughty dog can do charcters well but for some reason here i just cant get invested and since there are so many cutscenes it drives me crazy. The game just moves too slow when it doesnt really need to. It so doesnt help that every enemy encounter is pretty much the same and the AI is very dumb.

    For a game where all hangs on good graphics and intense scripted fights, turning the screen grayscale when you're low on health makes the game look worse when it's supposed to be the most exciting.

The story starts out in a fantastic manner and keeps going down that road of success. The first two thirds of the story are amazing and engaging. However, the third act overstays its welcome and drops the ball story-wise. It is evident that the third act was changed when the game got delayed. So many plot points are never explained (I will not spoil these points but the reasoning behind Sam's big reveal, Rafe's sudden motives, Nadine's moment, Sam's beef with Sully, etc. are never explained) So the story is the best in the series. However, it is overall an average story thanks to the third act. Also, the villains suck. Sorry to say but they do. They barely have any impact on the story and they are just boring, unmemorable, and silly compared to the villains of Uncharted 2 and 3. However, Nate, Sam, Sully, and Elena are all wonderful to see and interact with.

    The Graphics are the best on the PS4. Easily. Beautiful to see and so colorful and full of life.

    The gameplay is so refined to perfection. The grappling hook and sliding on slopes makes platforming a blast to preform. There are also more options on how to handle fights. Do you wanna be stealthy or guns blazing? Up to you. However, the vehicle sections....suck. The cars are clunky and have awkward controls.

    There are much more things to cover, but just to be brief:
    Pros
    -Beautiful Graphics
    -Wonderful cast of heroes
    -So many options for combat
    -Platforming is varied and fun
    -Perfect balance of platforming, puzzles, and gunplay.
    -Best multiplayer in the series
    -The first two acts of the story

    Cons
    - The third act
    -Villains
    - The vehicle sections
    - Plot holes everywhere

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Another great game in the franchise, I can only recommend playing it for yourself as my words cannot do it justice.

    That been said I will proceed...

    The Uncharted series have been solid in all aspects but they're primarily known for their story. Uncharted 4 doesn't stray from this connotation and fills the player with an array of emotions as it goes on from the typical uncharted humour, to seriousness and a real sense of emotion.
    This helps create individual personas for the characters and a real sense of empathy and by the end of the game when they look back over the previous games I couldn't help myself but feel ((((SPOILER)))) part of the family and journey that they had created.

    I'm glad they seem to have put the nail in the coffin, not in a negative way but so that we can remember the Uncharted games for the great series that it is.

    This game is the most beautiful game realease so far in the PS4. I do not undertand why people give it a zero. This is my humble opinion:

    The gameplay is fun, the grapichs are stumbling, the story is exceptional. This is excellent action adventure game para esta generation. The olnly complaint I have is the cover system.

    I think we all wondered what a top studio like Naughty Dog could do with next-gen hardware. But I don't think anyone expected this.

    For me this is a quantum leap ahead of the previous Uncharted games (and those were pretty spectacular). It is astonishing to see all the characters coming to life with the most exquisite facial detail and flawless animation. Then there is the story, the dramatic structure, the incredible locations, the characters, the dialogue, the action, the puzzles, the cinematography, the sound track... all so far ahead of anything I have seen or heard before.

    To quote The Guardian newspaper, "With our video game reviews we reserve a five-star rating for games that we think everyone should experience, that are so interesting or impressive in certain areas that they transcend any flaws, limitations or genre concerns. Uncharted 4 is certainly in that category. "

    I genuinely feel sorry for gamers who are unable to experience this game (including the many that have posted false reviews on this site).

    While much game play remains unchanged, the addition of a grapple line, stealth and driving work really well in UC4 and where the game really shines is in the storytelling and pacing. A well crafted and fitting end to the series.

    GRAPHICS: Gorgeous and seamless with amazing set pieces, excellent character models and animations. VOICE: The voice acting is top notch with Nolan North
    While much game play remains unchanged, the addition of a grapple line, stealth and driving work really well in UC4 and where the game really shines is in the storytelling and pacing. A well crafted and fitting end to the series.

    GRAPHICS: Gorgeous and seamless with amazing set pieces, excellent character models and animations.

    VOICE: The voice acting is top notch with Nolan North and Troy Baker working very well together. Exceptionally well acted all the way around.

    SOUND: Excellent sound with fitting source to reception recognition.

    SOUNDTRACK: Really exceptional music and use of it to create atmosphere. At one point when Nate and Elena are coming to grips with the difficulty and hurt of their relationship I was almost moved to tears - and for a cynic like me that is quite feat.

    GAME PLAY: The shooting continues to be Uncharted as always but the use of the grapple, stealth tactics and, of all things, driving work is so well. I usually don't care for driving sections and usually that is a really weak aspect (looking at you Watch Dogs) but here it is done superbly to where I really enjoyed it.

    REPLAY VALUE: I have not dipped into the multiplayer so I can't comment on that, but for me, like its predecessors, I have little desire to replay the title. Once the story is complete and all the puzzles solved I have no reason to replay the game. The multiplayer may provide that value, but I prefer single player games.

    OVERALL: An exceptional title that anyone who likes action adventure games should pick up and play. Since it may only be worth a single play through one might want to borrow or rent it, however I recommend owning it, to support Naughty Dog and as a must have in a video game collection. It may be worth revisiting in a couple of years and the multiplayer may be worth having - your mileage may vary.

The gameplay literally never changes thing up (except for that part where you play a different game), and at least one part of it, the climbing, is a dull mind numb. The story is a throwaway, and the cinematics are overly long and boring. I couldn't find myself caring about the characters, because I disliked the repetitive gameplay so much. The twists in the story aren't predictable, but they are dumb. In hindsight, I still never would have guessed them, and, yet, I wasn't surprised in the least. I was more focused on finishing this chore than enjoying the ride.

    It is, however, an objectively good game. It's a beautiful environment, the voice acting is superb, and the world is huge. The multiplayer is great, and I've already put in half a day playing with friends. I enjoy the grind for rewards, as well as the PvP. There are some issues, like getting hung up on the map for a 5 or 6 seconds, but they are minimal and can be overlooked for great gameplay. I didn't expect to like the multiplayer more than the story for this game, though, and for that reason, it's a bit of a letdown.

People that do say that it is repetitive are probably sick and tired of this game type. And surely it doesn't bring anything truly new to the table. That doesn't mean that the game isn't varied on it's own.

    It's taking place is varied landscapes in different all beautifully crafted locations. Touchin multiple continents and climates. The scenery will definately not bore you.

    There are basically 2 story lines. Mild spoilers ahead i do try to keep them at a minimum.

    The main one is basically help your brother which is in or getting into trouble.
    This i find rather bland from a story perspective but it is very well executed there are plot twists which i surely didn;t care about. The plot twist doesn't change the direction nor the relations between characters. Which is rather odd.

    Where the main story does really well is the delivery. Voice acting is on point, Facial expressions by far the best i've ever seen in any game. Just a glance is enough to tell the underlining emotions.

    The second story is the on pirate captain avery. Which you will backtrack in order to find his treasure.
    This story is very interesting. But it's delivered by clues hidden notes left corpses and most of it is in the last parts of the game. I don;t wanna spoil this just make sure you pay attention from Act 14 ish

    It is probably the best action adventure of all time. So why didn't i give it a 10/10?
    Well it doesn't do anything new or refreshing. It was very safe.
    However the execution was pretty much perfect. performance, visuals, acting. the production value is quad A. Certainly a cut above the rest. But it sure doesn't win any originality contests.

    Is it a masterpiece. Well from a technical standpoint without any doubt.
    Should you buy it? Well if you own a PS4 you wanna see what this puppy can do right?
    So just brace yourself and enjoy the ride.

    I have only got to Chapter 17, because I have exams, that is why I have not finished the game yet. But so far I am loving this game.

    The plot is incredibly intriguing and the twist and turns it takes are usually quite surprising. The characters are extremely well written, Nadine and Rafe are horrible characters and you know it, Nate and Sam have incredible chemistry and the dialogue is also fantastic. Listening to conversations as you are walking through a cave or driving through Madagascar are fascinating and quite funny. But when the drama happens, it is handles perfectly.

    The puzzles are challenging, but not that hard, but overall very good. The gameplay has drastically improved. My only issue with the Uncharted games is the gameplay. But Uncharted 4 has fixed this, slightly. The gun gameplay has been fixed and the addition of the grapple hook is great, but the melee combat still isn't fantastic. Its brutal and really fun, but not particularly fantastic. And the stealth isn't that great, even coming off The Last Of Us, and the cover system is a bit clunky. But overall the gameplay is really, really fun. And you feel like an absolute badass when you use the grapple hook, jump on top of someone, then kill everyone. Also the set pieces are awesome. The driving section was great, and the "open world" free roam areas were cool but I feel they could have added more puzzles or caves to explore, but still a good feature.

    The multiplayer is also rather good. It's something to do after you complete the game (which I have not done yet.) And they have put a lot of effort into it, they didn't just add it for the hell of it, they really put a lot of effort into this one and it is really fun. And graphically the game is beautiful.

    I do have some issues. One being the cover system, it is very clunky and sometimes getting into cover is annoying as hell. The gameplay is good, but still could be greatly improved. I feel more puzzles could be included, and more things should be added to the open world sections. Also for some reason you can't counter in certain melee combat sections, which is really dumb. And as usual the climbing isn't that great or challenging.

    But overall so far the game is intriguing, well written, fun, immersive and overall captures the adventure and drama of previous Uncharted games. This really is the video game version of Indiana jones, and that is fine by me.

    Does a game franchise need to be innovative to be good? No, and Uncharted 4 isn't innovative, but it uses the technology that is there and uses the technology to the max. I feel The Last Of Us gripped me and impressed me more than Uncharted 4, but as someone who loves the Indiana Jones movies and loves intriguing adventure movies and games this game is really up my alley. And as a sequel and the last game in this franchise It really is a good conclusion to one of my favourite video game franchises of all time. Hopefully the last 5 chapters don't ruin the entire game, if they do, I will kill myself.

    So far I give this 9/10, but only just scraping a 9/10l

    When Amy Hennig got the boot, Druckmann and Straley scrapped eight months of work because they wanted to do their own thing - and it shows.

Come on, if I wanted more realism and more melancholy, I would have played The Last Of Us, truly an outstanding masterpiece of storytelling, world-building and characterization, and I can't wait for the second installment. But Uncharted doesn't need any of those. The franchise never took itself seriously, it proudly reveled in its Indiana Jones pulp action vibe, it was like a comic brought to life with love and a hell of a lot of tongue in cheek. All that is pretty much gone in this one. Uncharted was a boyish larger-than-life fantasy and had a tone all of its own, and Druckmann's and Straley's version pretty much misses the mark for the most part. Yes, the acting is amazing as usual, but the tone's completely different once you look beneath the surface. Sure, the set pieces are there, the quips, the banter, the action - but now they are like they'd be in any movie these days. Same goes for the score: Greg Edmondson not only created three outstanding soundtracks and extremely catchy themes you just have to hum along, he wrote music that was unmistakably Uncharted in a nutshell. But he got the boot, too, because Druckmann and Straley wanted Henry Jackman. He certainly did a good job with the score for Uncharted 4, but this one sounds like any other action movie score. The light-hearted fun, the tongue in cheek, the old-fashioned serial vibe, the sense of wonder and adventure - completely gone.

    Yes, the game is visually stunning, and yes, it controls nicely. (Apart from the surprisingly bad driving physics.) But it also feels quite repetitive for long stretches, and because they toned down all of what makes Uncharted what it used to be, the game doesn't find enough to make up for what's lost. It's still a worthwhile game, don't get me wrong, but it's a sad ending for a franchise that was so stalwart in its old-fashionedness that it managed to become original again. Especially lamentable is the fact that the original team wasn't allowed to see their vision come to an organic conclusion, but that they were replaced with another one who just wanted to be different from their predecessors - thereby creating a game that's really nothing special anymore. I don't see that a more down to earth and lifelike characterization and a melancholy overdose that reminds you of TLOU time and again is what this franchise needed. It's like Indiana Jones having an identity crisis in the Last Crusade, or Luke Skywalker trying to make a difficult marriage work in Return of the Jedi. And to add insult to injury, they made sure that there would never be another Uncharted game again, because they "told Nate's story". Nathan Drake was never more than the archetype of the reckless, witty, loveable rogue with just as much background as was necessary, and he didn't need to be. So they went ahead and neutered what made him what he was and pretended that this was a complex character's story whose arc had to come to a close. If they hadn't shut the door to potential sequels, if there was the possibility for another classic Uncharted, I wouldn't feel so bad, but as Nate's sendoff this is a massive disappointment.

    Tell you what, Naughty Dog: This franchise was totally different from what Druckmann and Straley like to do. And that was okay. But if they really didn't like anything about Uncharted, maybe you shouldn't have given the project to them, but worked out things with Hennig. You know, the lady who put this thing together in the first place and was responsible for its success?

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Uncharted 4 is a wonderfully crafted adventure, about family, sacrifices, loss and maturity. Set three years after the events of Uncharted 3, Nate and Elena are married. They live in New Orleans, where Elena is a free-lance Journalist, and Nate works for a salvage company called Jameson Marine. Their normal, mundane life comes to a halt when Sam Drake (Nate`s older brother) comes back into his life, who was thought to be dead for 15 years, who needs Nathan`s help to find Henry Avery`s $400 million worth in treasure and jewels. The story in Uncharted 4 and the way it arcs is the best in the series by far, as it has a deeper and more engrossing plot, with more at stake this time round.
    It`s also clear that Naughty Dog has learnt a lot from the previous Uncharted games, and from The Last of Us in terms of character building and game design too, which has had a massive pay off for this final entry in the series, as all the staple Uncharted characters the we know and love like Elena, Nate and Sully show us a lot more emotion in situations, to help elevate a scene in the game. The pay off from the profound detail to facial animations and peerless acting is massive, and no game has ever had such a high quality in this area before, to the point where each character feels like a real, living person.

    Graphically, Uncharted 4 is unbelievable in every way possible, from the vast draw distance, the sense of scale, the amazing lighting, the life like character models and super high quality texture work. Not to mention the class leading animation work at play too. During game play, the transition to cut scenes is now seamless, thanks to them now being real-time instead of being pre-rendered like on PS3. Audio is also deeply satisfying, with guns, punches and dialogue being top notch as usual.

    Outside of the story, the Multiplayer is also pleasantly fun, with a focus on 60 fps, with less graphical detail to make sure the game plays its best in a competitive space with online players. Gun play is slick, responsive and accurate, while still being decently balanced. Customisation is deep and overall its a welcome addition that will keep players interested, while more content rolls out.

    Overall, Uncharted 4: A Thief`s End is a masterpiece of a game that sets a new bar for storytelling, characters, action and presentation for the action/adventure genre, that few games have managed to top. Not only is it the best game in the series, it`s also an emotional, thrilling, memorable and peerless love letter to die hard fans of the series that has to be played. Its a game that will remembered and talked about for years to come.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I started playing this series only from uncharted 2 and I was like what the hell was that . I mean at that time that was the best game I've ever played. And then my expectations for uncharted 3 got bigger and I was very much with that. Then naughty dogs delivered an other masterpiece with the last of us. Naughty dogs is one such studio which can satisfy all the gamers.

    Uncharted 4- omg this is one of the best games I've ever played. It is similar to uncharted 2 where it starts with the present day and and goes to the flash back l. The screenplay in this game is excellent. The game starts off slowly and you can see sequence which are almost similar to the last of us and they've used it well.
    Though the game starts slowly there is not a single sequence which feels boring. The naughty dogs has done an excellent job in bringing back crash bandicoot. I was smiling the entire moment when I was that game. The sad thing you'll be able to play that only at the end. All the characters in the are used excellently and are given equal importance. Though Khloe and cutter are not in the game there are some reference to them. The graphics of this game has set a benchmark for others games. This is the best looking game after order 1886 and syndicate. This is the first time where you can drive a car and it really feels good. The rope is fun to use. Takedown with the rope puts a smile on your always and it feels satisfying. The stealth mechanics are some what similar to the last of us l. Unlike previous uncharted games you can avoid using guns. The story is excellent and they've done justice in bringing Sam in the last game of the series. The scene where Sam and drake meets Rafe and Nadine were awesome. The only thing which made me feel sad was the gameplay time. I finished the game in two days playing in hard difficulty.

    Uncharted is sure a masterpiece and is 10/10 for me.

    Pros
    1. Story
    2. Screenplay
    3. Use of rope
    4. Driving feels good
    5. Gameplay and improved shooting

    Cons

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Uncharted 4: Thief's End is final game in Uncharted franchise and in many ways, it is the epic conclusion and the best game in the series.

    Story leads towards huge pirate treasure and unites Nathan Drake with his brother Samuel Drake. Nate will be in tough spot in so many ways. His brother needs help but same time it makes him to lie to his wife Elena. Even though Nate gets help from his good friend Victor Sullivan, he soon finds out that he will be faced against cold and cruel Rafe Adler.

    Everything that has made series wonderful, is here in this game. Action is extremely intensive and story very immersive. Adventure elements like climbing and puzzle solving are all done very well. This game might just have best puzzles in whole franchise and action has so many variable elements, that it will never be really boring.
    Environment is same time players friend and foe. Long grass and water help to flank enemies, but in same time, many covers will eventually break under heavy gunfire.
    Weapons have many variations and give player chance to use different tactics in combat. You can be more action oriented or more stealth oriented many times.

    Adventure is one very atmospheric part of the game and also huge part of the story. Environments will differ a lot and game is gorgeous in graphical department.
    Story itself is same time very dramatic and very easygoing and funny. There is times when its all fun and games, but other times it is much more dramatic with themes like brotherhood, marriage and loyalty. All this will end is more epic way than ever before in the franchise.

    If there is something negative in this game, it is mostly just nitpicking. Some parts of the story should have had more focus in them. Some parts of the story feel like they had too little time in them.
    Action - Adventure phasing is much better than ever before, but it could always be a slight better.
    Then there is these new features. I especially like these conversation moments where you choose what to say. It would have been so cool if there would have been much more of those.
    Treasure hunting might sometimes feel very frustrating since levels are this time much larger than before.
    Biggest thing might be that when compared to many other games, Uncharted 4 is short. But is has very good phasing, great atmosphere and wonderful story.

    One very positive part of the game is in bonus content like: Unlimited ammo, and that is just the tip of the iceberg.

    Overall Uncharted 4: Thief's End might very well be best game 2016.

    + Action
    + Adventure
    + Story
    + Humor
    + Bonus functions

    - Feels short
    - Nitpicking things

    95/100

    I found the story engaging, the graphics and animations top notch. The problem I find with these types of game set in real life is that Nathan Drake, Lara Croft or whatever protagonist it may be has to kill hundreds and hundreds of hench men which is kinda unbelievable, it also makes them seem like half- sociopaths for killing all these guys.. i mean i know they are 'bad', but still.

At least in TLOU, they kill the infected, and in a post apocolyptic world everyone is desperate for survival, which leaves more varied enemies and also more strategy and different types of gameplay. They also arent forced to vary the gameplay by adding long platforming sequences. Even with a more fantasy type world like Batman its more believable because hes batman and can use his gizmos and equipment, and well... he doesnt actually kill anymore. Anyway, for what it is, its a good game, and i know and feel they put their hearts and souls into it. Expand

    Uncharted 4 is a masterpiece of storytelling, design, graphics, sound and pretty much everything else. The first 3 were great fun with simple stories and basic character relationships however Uncharted 4 thank to Neil Druckman delivers a more adult story and relationship themes which as a 31 year old bloke had me emotionally involved. Gameplay is greatly improved as is the climbingUncharted 4 is a masterpiece of storytelling, design, graphics, sound and pretty much everything else. The first 3 were great fun with simple stories and basic character relationships however Uncharted 4 thank to Neil Druckman delivers a more adult story and relationship themes which as a 31 year old bloke had me emotionally involved. Gameplay is greatly improved as is the climbing mechanics from previous instalments.

    Shooting feels spot on from the clumsy aiming of the ps3 games, the stealth adds more combat options and the driving elements are well implemented and part of the overall exploration and action set pieces.

    Its hard to find fault in Uncharted 4, the graphics are the best thing a console has ever seen, you will stand in awe just looking at the view at times, especially in the final third which is a large chunk of the game which peaks and peaks up to an ending worthy of the 14 hours i put into it.

    Uncharted 4 is the pinnacle of console gaming regardless of platform and will be the game you look back on in 10 years and get a warm and fuzzy feeling inside.

    Uncharted 4 is a landmark title that anyone remotely interested in interactive storytelling should invest in. Naughty Dog has once again raised the bar across the industry. Thrilling shootouts, a staggering level of detail, breathtaking visuals and emotional depth come together to make Uncharted 4: A Thief's End a must-play masterpiece.

    Stating that the forthcoming game will be the last rendezvous with a popular, charismatic hero is a rare phenomenon. I congratulate Naughty Dog on their courage and in spite of myself keep my fingers crossed for them to stick to their decision. The farewell party they threw for Nate is simply spectacular. This is how I want to remember him, not as an old man who rubbed his joints with pain cream and then found a UFO. Uncharted 4 is a brilliant game and a breathtaking demonstration of what PS4 is capable of. [07/2016, p.56]
