    This game is definitely worth the purchase and an amazing work of art. The graphics are unmatched and the story is perfect and engaging. The attention to detail was impeccable. A bittersweet end to a great series that will leave you wanting more. Great work, Naughty Dog. You have raised the bar once again.

    Great ending to Drakes story, looks lovely plays is smooth. With no noticeable stuttering, easily going to be one of 2016's top games.

    PS. look at the review history of the low rating users, all xbox and wii u salty fanboys. Pathetic.

Also the multiplayer is lacking in many ways and tends to lag but that is more of a server issue; the main attraction here is the campaign and as always they knocked this one out of the park!

    First, I'll just start by saying that this game is fantastic. Modern single player games need to have a balance of certain factors to achieve greatness in entertainment.

First, it needs to have a great story that satisfies both fans of its franchise, as well as new players. Second, it needs to have exciting gameplay that requires quick thinking and fast reactions. Third, it needs to have elements that involve critical thinking and takes more time and in depth concentration. Fourth, it needs to balance these aspects in a fashion that keeps the game interesting, and doesn't make it feel repetitive and/or boring. The Uncharted series has done this very well from the first game through the fourth. The fourth and final installment, however, did something a little bit extra. It finished the story and finished it well. Stories that follow a central character have to reach an inevitable conclusion. Unlike stories that follow broader socio-political concepts, which can change and adapt to continue on, stories based on a central character needs an end for audiences to be truly satisfied. Uncharted 4 does this in spectacular fashion. It includes chapters from the past that reveals the depth of the Nathan Drake character, allowing for greater character development than we've seen in previous titles. The game also shows us how Nathan Drake has learned from his previous experiences, and applies that wisdom to finally (spoiler alert) let go of his wild ambitions for treasure and adventure, and to finally settle down with Elena. So no more lost cities and cursed treasure for Nathan. Just a cozy life with his business and family. A satisfying conclusion for a fun and entertaining game franchise.… Expand

I couldn't stop playing the game and when i had to take a break from it i was always thinking about it and hoping i could just get back home as fast as i can to keep playing. Voice acting was amazing as usual. Shooting the many guns in this game felt great and jumping from a crumbling rock to another while being shot at by countless enemies was amazing. The story was fantastic but i wont talk about it in this review so you could experience it yourself. Go buy this game now it is the best game i have ever played and left me sad that i could never experience it again for the first time. It is definitely worth the price with Naughty dog adding free content to the multiplayer part of the game.

    But first the good. The graphics and artwork are outstanding, the artists and developers that created the world should be proud. Some of the views and vistas are breathtaking. For me the game was bug free, which is a rare thing these days, good job ND, you sold me a working product. The addition of vehicles and stealth combat were a welcome addition.

    Now for the mediocre. The story is boring, and a departure from what drew me to the Uncharted series. I just felt no need to advance the story. Unfortunately, the writers seemed to think that the pinnacle of treasure hunting came from the Goonies movie, so they borrowed heavily from it. Here’s the Google description of the movie:

    “When two brothers find out they might lose their house (die) they are desperate to find a way to keep their home (stay alive). They find a treasure map and bring some friends along to find it. They are all out looking for the "X" and trying to get away from a group of bad guys who also want the treasure.”

    When the last chapter came I had images of Chunk and Sloth sliding down the sail to save their friends. I almost tossed my controller into the TV screen. The gaming industry as a whole suffers terribly from bad stories but this just felt cheap.

    The Bad. The combat is just terrible; enemies appear out of nowhere. Everyone, including Nate is a bullet sponge. There’s a battle on the beach where I threw three grenades at a guy in succession, and then shot him in the face with an RPG, he killed me a few seconds later, not even wounded. That’s some tough body armor. Apparently, you need to knock his helmet off first with a “tink” from any bullet, then you can kill him with a headshot, absolutely ridiculous. I did like the stealth combat addition, but the rest is just a technical mess of unbalanced garbage.

    Puzzles, were those puzzles or just mash buttons until a door opens? A three-year-old could’ve solved those. Seriously, open your magic journal and see the order, really? Just uninspired junk, no effort at all, you’re an embarrassment to the real artists that created a great world for you to tell a story in.

    Treasure collection of useless junk, WHY?! To all game developers, I don’t want to collect, useless treasures, feathers, songs sheets, it’s not fun. RPG’s have loot collection to progress the development of a character’s abilities. Uncharted is not an RPG, it’s an interactive movie, please stop with the collection of junk! If the collection of loot doesn’t alter or change the story or develop the character, then it’s just useless.

    Multiplayer, I just don’t care, there are so many better alternatives for multiplayer. It’s inclusion into this game is just an afterthought to entice you to pay for the PSN service, and to buy into micro-transactions. Frankly, this is the reason most of my friends are giving up on consoles all together and switching back to PC gaming.

    Conclusion, if you like the Uncharted series then you should rent this game to see its conclusion. It’s not worth buying, you won’t play it twice. Frankly, the combat is bad, and the platforming is repetitive. Watching a Let’s Play on You Tube is the best solution. I’m giving this game a 7 just because of the graphics and the gorgeous world the artists created. This game would have been a 5 or even a 4 without the graphics.    … Expand

Anyway, It has the best graphics we've seen so far in a videogame and the mechanics are just perfect. The enemies have a little of AI since they're not just standing waiting to die, they try to surprise you and that's cool; same AI that your stupid brother lacks. He can't cover any side and when he screams to alarm you, you're already dead, so you're basically by yourself even when he's with you a lot of the time. However the story sure is well written but it's also kind of boring and predictable. The landscapes are amazing but not interactive at all. It's a linear game in an amazing world.
    As a final commentary I would say is a good end to the series and for the Uncharted fans (as me) and you will enjoy it even if you're not but maybe it won't create enough interest to play the previous games and it has absolutely no replay value. If you can, I would recommend just renting it, you are going to like it but you're not playing it again and 60 bucks is a lot for a one-play game.    … Expand

O gameplay também evoluiu e está mais divertido, trazendo novas possibilidades com o stealth e o uso do gancho. A trilha sonora é excelente, casando-se muito bem com cada situação do game. Por fim, o multiplayer está bem divertido e bem fluído em 60FPS. O único ponto negativo que vejo é a retirada da abertura clássica da série, que me frustrou um pouco.

    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]
