After 3 home console games, and another heading to the Playstation Vita, are Nathan Drake and Co beginning to outstay their welcome?
November 19 marks 15 years since the release of the Uncharted game that started it all.
I hope they don’t make another until the end of the ps5 lifecycle…. Show us a better jungle
VGChartz's Issa Maki: "I finally have a proper designation akin to what I've always referred to internally as 'the line that must be crossed' or 'The Line', for short – ludonarrative dissonance – the separation from a video game's story in relation to its gameplay. Why isn't PETA all up in Mario's grill for jumping on turtles and killing fish, or charging Samus Aran with the extinction of the Metroid species? Ever notice how fire has that habit of making bosses in Resident Evil stronger? Read on my friend, for I endeavor to imbue you with the ability to engage in basic queries concerning the concept."
A relic of its time or a buried treasure from the past?
I was really hoping this would have made it into one of the collections. Like how they did with the GoW PSP games.
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.
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.
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
I loved this game. It was like an extension of the first one. Why haven't we gotten an HD release yet?
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.
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!
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.
I really like Uncharted:Golden Abyss on ps vita it would be dope if they remaster it for PlayStation 5
"are Nathan Drake and Co beginning to outstay their welcome?"
Hell no. Each Uncharted is a quality title and (if reviews are anything to go by) Golden Abyss is no exception. Why stop now? There are still so many places in the world for Drake to explore; so many world mysteries that Drake could solve.
In a word: Vita
Naughty Dog is probably done with the series. I have a feeling that they'll start something fresh looking forward to PS4. I have a strong feeling that whatever it is, the Uncharted cast will be involved, some how.
Atlantis would be great featuring the Bermuda triangle that would make for a chilling story.
hopefully away for a long time, which seems to be what is happening with Naughty Dog making a new IP. Uncharted is a great series but you can always have too much of a good thing.
uncharted 4/5/6/7/8/9 anymore milking i think it will start to turn into cheese
