    Kinda wish they would've implemented a way to use your grappling hook when you do melee attacks like in the multiplayer but it's fine because the grappling hook isn't just for climbing you can actually use it in combat by swinging and shooting and even swinging and superman punching guys which is epic

    En mi caso he jugado la historia como 5 veces , es atrapante y adictiva .
    Uncharted 4 no está tan apegado a sus precuelas ( significa que no necesitas jugar los juegos anteriores paran entender la historia ) , pero , mantiene muchas referencias muy gratificantes para aquel que se ha jugado la saga entera ( y en ciertos momento de la historia mantienen al tanto de los logros de nuestro protagonista )

    Uncharted 4 is quite a peculiar title. It's a shoot-em-up, action adventure game and yet still so much more. From start to finish it's nothing but a non-stop rollercoaster of action. When you aren't running and gunning you are a parkour master jumping and leaping to small ledges. It's like somebody grabbed a little of Kill Bill, Tomb Raider and Indiana Jones, threw them in a bowl andUncharted 4 is quite a peculiar title.

When you aren't running and gunning you are a parkour master jumping and leaping to small ledges. It's like somebody grabbed a little of Kill Bill, Tomb Raider and Indiana Jones, threw them in a bowl and baked a tasty pie.

    While overall a great game, there were fairly severe plot holes abound. Your main antagonist seems to have an infinite supply of goons to throw your way and resources better than the US government altogether. Well, of course, right? you need to do something! when I go to the bank i'm fighting off hundreds of baddies myself...That's where the game fights with itself as it tries to be hyper-realistic. You are just a treasure seeker but no, also a mass murderer on global scales. At one point you are arguing about getting proper permits for simple retrieval job. The next you are mowing down hundreds of people followed up with a cutscene where Nathan is telling everyone to calm down and "can we talk?" It's so jarring to see Nate go from mass murderer to pacifist back to mass murderer. Yeah a lot of it is forced on him but it's still just so out of character.

    The other problem is how enemies get to your destination leaps and bounds faster. Realistically, the missions that Nadine puts her Shoreline crew threw would take months of prep and planning. Going to other countries with thousands of soldiers and weaponry without a hitch??? Yet somehow, Shoreline will be there quicker than 3 guys on a small plane. I don't buy it for a second and it happens ALL. THE. TIME! Even Nate's wife (Elena) is a master tracker when the plot calls for it!

    That aside...the game is just so much damn fun. If the story had been a bit more solid I could have easily given it (possibly) 10.    … Expand

    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.

    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]
