It's hilarious when people use their only bubble to troll...

Iroquois_Pliskin4509d ago

okay people wtf! Keep this spoiler free

NAGNEWS4509d ago

if your a good or a bad guy you get disagrees anyway - its in N4G's nature

sikbeta4509d ago

lol who cares about agrees/disagrees, it only counts when you say something funny :P

O-T

And another reason to buy this awesome portable system on Day One!!!

E2M4509d ago

its a shame uc3 was shorter than uc2, hopefully this game will keep up standards

beavis4play4509d ago

i was let down by the last third of UC3 story too. SPOILER!!!!!!!!!! i mean, having the big reveal at the end be tainted water was kind of lame.

lol you didn't even play the game did you? If you did then you surely didn't even finish it?

(spoiler)
That would be a shame since you were so close to the reveal of what is IN THE WATER, and not the water it self.

If it was released...there would be no stopping it. This is why it never was let out.

Eamon4508d ago

You guys care about Uncharted story?

I like Uncharted series for its gameplay, action thrill and set pieces.

Uncharted's never had a great story in the first place. If you want great stories, then play games like Metal Gear Solid or Final Fantasy.

KUV19774508d ago

The story of Metal Gear is so overrated. Just because it is complex and has a bazillion twists doesn't make the story good, let alone the storytelling, which reminded me of boring powerpoint presentations from time to time.

The Uncharted overall story-arc is pretty good. I will admit that the second part had smaller logical problems and the third even more so, but overall this franchise is very solid. It has some of the best characters that easily carry the audience over smaller story-hiccups...

But of course that is also just my opinion.

Kratos_GodOfWar4508d ago

Eamon just said if you want great story play Final Fantasy sure he only play the hype games like ff 13 which was a boring terrible game I rather play uc3 10times then play any ff games yuck lol

Eamon4508d ago

blessda1, with just a few more grains of intelligence you would have identified the character in my avatar as Zidane from Final Fantasy IX. I was referring to older Final Fantasy games not the trash known as FF13.

@Ares actually I think it was shorter because they gave the release date over a year from release and then HAD to stick to that lol still it was a brilliant game :p

StraightPath4508d ago

story was forgettable in UC3 not as good as UC2.

I cannot wait for PS Vita and this game, a long with other great titles of course! :)

Fylus4509d ago

Same here! I was never interested in the PSP just because I've never been much into handheld gaming, but the PSV has me very interested. I'm especially loving the graphical capabilities. The PSV will be the first handheld gaming device I'll have ever bought in my life.

sikbeta4509d ago

Me too, that thing is just so good, it's packed with so much stuff on it, makes my PS3 jelly :P I want to know if that Toro Mini game will be available outside of Japan, Toro and Kuro FTW!

ironfist924509d ago (Edited 4509d ago )

Will this get a PS3 release also? Or is it exclusive just for PSV?

Or, even better, will it come with cross-compatibility?

Rival_314509d ago

I believe it will only release on the Vita.

CloseSecond4508d ago

You might want to wait and see. There were many supposed exclusives on PSP that made their way to the PS3.

GA may just be a timed exclusive on the PSV.

CynicalVision4509d ago

I can see the game getting a PS3 port release in the far future but for now it's a Vita exclusive.

beavis4play4509d ago

hope so - i'd like to play it and i'm not getting a vita.

ironfist924509d ago (Edited 4509d ago )

double post

fastrez4509d ago

Good value. We could be seeing a shift in the way handhelds deliver quality. Now, if only the prices matches iTunes, we'd be sorted.

DeeZee4509d ago

If this were an Appstore game for $4.99 it wouldn't be this long. If it was, it wouldn't have the same graphics and production values.

Frankfurt4509d ago

Haven't played many iPhone RPGs or MMORPGs, have you?

DeeZee4509d ago

@Frankfurt umm, some folks would label me an Apple fanboy, I've owned every iPhone and iPad. So yeah, I've played many iOS RPGs and MMOs. They have longer campaigns sometimes, but none of them have the production values of this game.

Cosmo8114509d ago

You can have cheap bad-to-average games, or more highly priced excellent games. One or the other.

Fylus4509d ago (Edited 4509d ago )

Then explain why Battlefield 3 shares the same price as Modern Warfare 3.

Yearly game releases should not be worth full retail price.

Cosmo8114509d ago

@Fylus this assumes that the price is a reflection of the amount of time spent developing it, which is false.

I was really hoping this would have made it into one of the collections. Like how they did with the GoW PSP games.

VenomUK794d ago

I recall just playing the start on PS Vita but not much more and many Uncharted fans wouldn't have played it either so this 'unknown' chapter could be ripe for an expanded version for PS5.

TiredGamer794d ago

Agreed here. Played it back on the Vita years ago, but never finished. The cramped Vita controls and the tiny analog sticks just didn't gel with me in a game where precise headshots are half the fun. It's the first Uncharted game that I haven't completed/Platinumed, and I think much of it is control related. Really wish it was PS TV compatible (natively).

I would definitely buy it if it were released as a PS4/PS5 version.

YoungKingDoran793d ago

If you ever play it again on Vita definitely turn on the gyro aiming assist, made it alot more fun to play and i ended up getting all the headshot trophies thanks to this- super accurate

TheEnigma313794d ago

I loved this game. It was like an extension of the first one. Why haven't we gotten an HD release yet?

TiredGamer794d ago (Edited 794d ago )

Lack of available dev resources and lack of a lucrative ROI probably. I think Sony has an opportunity to sell it as a separate, standalone HD remaster for like $20. Otherwise, the effort to convert a PS Vita game to the PS4/5 won't be worth their while. Unfortunate, but that's probably the only way it'd make financial sense.

deleted793d ago (Edited 793d ago )

Some of the puzzles/interactivity would have to be completely reworked. I remember having to hold the camera to a bright light. (I remember being annoyed at that part bc I was playing in bed late night while my wife was asleep next to me. Ran to the kitchen at like 3am just to get past it lol)

Also the swipe battles. I absolutely couldn't stand the final boss because the swiping felt so inaccurate and it would constantly misread gestures.

I adored the rest of the game though, and even the story! It couldn't simply just be rereleased, it needs reworking for consoles. (same reason it didn't get PS Vita TV support) The rubbing parts could still work w Dualsense/DS4 though.

I'd gladly welcome it and do hope it happens eventually!

Muigi794d ago

Glad I still have my Oled Vita.

MadLad794d ago

Sony should have tried harder to support the Vita. It ended up just a solid emulation machine that happens to have a handful of classics.

Bigman4k794d ago (Edited 794d ago )

Yeah Sony gave up on the ps vita way too fast

Bigman4k794d ago (Edited 794d ago )

I really like Uncharted:Golden Abyss on ps vita it would be dope if they remaster it for PlayStation 5

Analyzing 'Uncharted: Drake’s Deception' – Wait, What is The Game About?

Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception has a lot to live up to as Uncharted 2: Among Thieves is an incredible and near-perfect game.

It's about retirement...oh wait

UNCHARTED2FANATIC898d ago (Edited 898d ago )

I cant even say what the point was its easily the worst story in the series. The online was a whole lot of fun though but overall doesn't come even close to 2

porkChop898d ago (Edited 898d ago )

It was a step back for sure. Personally, I thought even the MP was way better in U2. Solid game, glad I played it. I just think they didn't push as hard as they did with U2.

UNCHARTED2FANATIC893d ago

Yes both the online and story was better in 2 no doubt

Flewid638898d ago

The "young Drake" portion was pretty top notch, story-wise. But yeah, everything outside of that I felt was inferior.

DanielEndurance898d ago

Villains were all over the place in this… one second they wanted Drake dead, the next they needed him, then they want him dead again, then they coulda killed him, but poisoned his friend instead, then coulda shot him again, but had brunch with him, then needed him alive, then coulda mowed him down, but decided to kill him by fire and let him escape… Uncharted 2 was way better. 😅😅

slowgamer898d ago

=D Sounds crazy. I don't remember any of that. Played it on ps3 and I remember thinking that why was this game so bashed compared to second one. I liked it.

Chocoburger897d ago (Edited 897d ago )

Another thing that annoyed me about UC3 events was the agent Talbot teleporting around Turkey. It just felt off to me, and made no sense.

Also, for about one third of the game, you go on a wild goose chase to rescue Sully, who wasn't even there to be rescued, and you end up back where you started again. There was simply no pay off for all the events you go through, so it fell flat in that regard as if they couldn't figure out how to make the game longer, so they decided to side-track you to do something with no pay off, hoping you wouldn't notice due to all the incredible action set pieces they made.

Overall though, even with its flaws, I still enjoy the game.

TheEnigma313898d ago

This was actually my least favorite in the series. Didn't have that same impact that part 2 set.

Flewid638898d ago

Uncharted 2 is the pinnacle of the series (to me).

Granted, 4 had the best story in my opinion, but 2 was the overall best game.
