Uncharted 4: A Thief's End Gameplay Debuts at PlayStation Experience, and It's Incredible

At PlayStation Experience Sony Computer Entertainment shown the first gameplay video of Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End.

[Relientk77]

I am so excited for this

my jaw was dropping half the time during this gameplay

the gameplay is AMAZING

[chaldo]

GWEATNESS AWAITS!! YAHH!!

[jmd749]

This is my number one anticipated game for 2015, followed closely by, Witcher3, Evolve, The Order, Bloodborne, and MGS5. 2015 is going to be an awesome year, I only hope I can afford it...

[tuglu_pati]

Maybe its because all past UC look so good, besides the character models I though this wasn't a huge leap on the graphics department .

[chaldo]

idk man.. the water.. the waterfall.. the grass, leaves.. it just looked very realistic imo.

[tuglu_pati]

@Caldo

It definitely look better than the past UC i just think it wasn't a huge leap, but taking into account the past UCs look so great i guess is understandable plus this is 1080p/60FPS (at least the final product will be or that's what ND said) which is impressive.

Found this post on GAf which i think is interesting,

1) Foilage was the big graphics point in this demo. Everything else looks like an upgrade from UC3 -- sharper textures, more frames per animation, more on screen.

2) Framerate is NOT going to be a locked 60fps from the looks of it. The game seemed to have unlocked the framerate but you can clearly see it struggling in alot of the scenes based on camera view.

3) I love the transition animations.. They looked great!

4) Nothing high tech can be seen in this video.. no realtime GI, no volume lighting, no volume smoke, no tessellation, no POM, SSR are non-existant, etc.

5) Good particles though for explosions. Nice 2D smoke effects.

Overall, I expected more based on the hype.

[Concertoine]

Seeing it in 60 fps is the biggest difference. Also... dat vegetation.

The shooting setpieces look a lot more engaging and dynamic which i like since i've honestly always felt the shooting mechanics of uncharted were not its strong suit.

Also the enemy AI seems more intelligent (the way they check on their friends) which is also good since i think TLOU underdelivered on the promise of its AI.

[ABizzel1]

@tuglu_pati

It's because they looked so good, and this game is open-world aiming for 60fps, and still 1 year away yet already looks this good.

[tuglu_pati]

@ABizzel1

Yeah agree.

[Ballsack]

@tuglu ...this game has a year left of development...

Let that scary thought sink in

[fr0sty]

Don't forget the better lighting, all while running at double the resolution and possibly double the framerate too.

[Greyfoxdbz]

are you kidding? the foliage, the water, textures. Everything. Everything looks just so great even through compressed youtube footage. They have also taken what they learned with the last of us in terms of shooting mechanics, which is brilliant and the game looks more like Indiana Jones than ever. Wasn't that excited before this.

[starchild]

Yeah, but you have to admit, that vegetation looks absolutely amazing. The way the light reflects off of it, they are clearly using physically based rendering.

[Volkama]

I'm actually not generally a big fan of naughty dog's gameplay, and this carries several signs of the same kind of gameplay elements that don't fit my tastes. But visually it looks superb. Quality texturing, foliage and such natural lighting makes it look like they have achieved a whole new benchmark in visual fidelity.

[u got owned]

@ABizzel1

This game is not an open world, maybe it has more open areas than other UC games, but to say its an open world its no accurate. GTA5, AC:Unity, Sunset Overdrive to name a few are open worlds, the scope of this games world are huge compared to what UC will have.

[Farmassy]

I have to agree with you. The Order has better graphics to me. Of course uncharted still looks great and the gameplay will be top notch

[vickers500]

@tuglu_pati

Watching it on Twitch on my ps4 internet browser, I'd have to agree with you. For the first few seconds, I wasn't sure if what I was seeing was Uncharted 4 or the hopefully-it'll-be-announc ed Uncharted collection. The waterfall effects of hitting that rock looked kind of crap in my opinion, not that I have something fresh in my mind to compare it to, but just watching it did nothing to impress me in the slightest.

Maybe they just didn't show one of their best levels, but the graphics that were shown simply weren't the slightest bit impressive to me, though again, I was watching a Twitch stream (which is going to be compressed) and it is in the early stages of development, so we'll see, it will probably get better, but unless it gets MUCH better, I don't see this being as big of a leap as Uncharted 1 to Uncharted 2 was.

If the framerate IS going to be 60fps as said below, then that may be the reason why.

I did think sliding gunplay and rope swing scenes were really cool though.

@a-Bizzel

Where does it say that this game is open world? I hadn't heard that, if so, really cool.

[BlackCountryBob]

when I played tlou on ps4 I thought it looked no different to the PS3 version but when I went back, it was a huge improvement but the original was very good at delivering a great environment which my mind filled in. UC4 is a huge upgrade graphically but in a way looks like how you remember the other games rather than how they were.

Looks amazing though, surprised how many tlou mechanics have been borrowed but love that they seem to have tried to open the environment and give a more 3d game environment as it was sometimes too easy in previous games to hunker down somewhere and mow down wave after wave of enemies.

[pabsis]

having worked in gaming in the past, the one thing that just blew me away about this demo was not the framerate or character models etc... it's the fact that you can take a screen capture of any frame in this demo and it looks like a beautifully painted piece of concept art.. the lighting, colors as well as the highly stylized settings were just phenomenal and that's what sets Naughty Dog apart from most developers out there

[RealtorMDandDC]

In a sense I do agree UC always looked beautiful. But this looks amazingly beautiful and it'compressed. I can't imagine what it looks like in person.

To say the footage is not in the realms of spectacular will be doing reality an injustice.

I'm impress!!! The third game so far that really looks like a True Next Gen game.....and all three so far will be on my PS4 before years end. Back to playing ALL MY GAMES on my PS4.....

[souljah45]

This demo is pre-alpha so there's still alot of work to do

[Pogmathoin]

Does look incredible, Uncharted was already almost flawless, all this needs is Fallout addictiveness and your set for gaming bliss, cannot think of anything that can be improved upon....

[kenshiro100]

Hollllly graphics Batman.

This game looks incredible and it isn't even finished yet.

[starchild]

Hell yeah. This was my most anticipated game for the PS4 and this footage didn't disappoint me. This game is one of the main reasons I got my PS4 and now it feels real and I just can't wait to play it.

[Magicite]

its like ''tomb raider meets assassin's creed'' in other words - awesome!

[Genuine-User]

Simply spectacular. Characters, graphics, animation and enemy AI combined makes Uncharted 4 a dream come true for action adventure fans.

[jc12]

Wow, can you imagine a sequel to TLOU looking like this, if not even than this in the future? Excellent job ND, truly looks next-gen to me.

[jc12]

*Even better than this*

[RealtorMDandDC]

TLOU2.....next year at E3...Internet shuts down for 15 mins.

[holin4]

Looks damn good! just as expected from ND
By the way im an Xbox fan, thinking on getting a ps4 for this game... and the order
2015 EPIC

[callahan09]

Hot DAMN this game looks incredible!

[fermcr]

I like the Uncharted series, but after the reveal teaser they had, I expected Uncharted 4 graphics to look better then this.
Graphics look good... but they didn't WOW me.

As for gameplay, looks solid... with some similarities to Tomb Raider.

[etownone]

I'd have to agree with you 100%....

But still, uncharted 4 is the best looking console game to date Imo

[3-4-5]

This game looks awesome. Never played an uncharted game before, but this makes me want to play them all.

[FanboyKilla]

calm down sony fans, you kind of brought this on yourselves. remember watchdogs? acu? dont worry though uc4 looks amazing, and im not talking about the visuals.

[JWiLL552]

Everyone needs to watch the video over at Gamersyde without the typical Youtube compression, it's incredible.

http://www.gamersyde.com/hq...

[x5exotic]

It's not that good, guys. Jesus.

[indyman7777]

@Cupid_Viper_3 you said:......"Oh man, you guys tried that same "Downgraded" crap with inFamous Second Son, and you all had to eat crow for that."

WELL SAID and good catch. I remember that. And now Second son in a recent article is leading for graphics of the year even though it has been out awhile (AND I STILL CAN'T stop playing it). PS Ryse did not make the top 10 in graphics. And I'm sure it did not make top 20 in game play.

[geddesmond]

42 Disagrees lol. That means there is 42 cry babies jealous they bought the wrong system.

What I loved the most is the way it's now more open world with so many different routes to approach. The new combat moves and stealth moves were great and I loved how everyone reacted to their surroundings including Drakes silly jokes. And Drake has an older brother. Never knew that.

Most games at PSX meant nothing to me but the few that did, oh boy. SF5 PS4 Consol exclusive forever LMAO. I don't even like fighters that much but the way the media has been up in arms over it just confirmed what I have always said about the gaming media and their hidden hate for Sony. When it was TR for X1 all articles where about how Sony fans should relax that MS as helping them develop. But where are those types of articles for SF5 now lol.

[ABizzel1]

Open World, Assassins Creed mechanics, Tomb Raider mechanics, all with Naughty God like quality with Uncharted base gameplay.

Another GOTY contender right here, and one of the first games this gen to truly impress me. Didn't expect this many new mechanics to the formula, even if they are in other games, and it still looks beautiful open-world, possibly 60fps, and still 1 year away from launch.

[VonBraunschweigg]

It's not open world, the levels are just bigger then in previous games. Uncharted is so story driven it can't use open world gameplay, it needs to be played in levels.

And now they're bigger! With sooo many places to look for treasure:)

And I don't think this will be the last game in the series. The guy in the end called Drake his little brother, who knows we'll avenge hís death in Uncharted 5.

[THE-COMMANDER]

Oh man it's fast paced, breathtaking and the graphics blow my mind, man i can't wait!

[PizzaSteve]

Watch Tomb Raider get delayed til 2016. No way can it compete with UC4.

ND did it again. They are the best.

[JoGam]

Lol...yup

[faysal]

how is it possible to have graphics like this! and it was all real time OMG! man i cant wait to get my hands on it. and the end just mind fucked me!

[BullyMangler]

looks better than other Uncharteds thats for sure.

but uhhh . Iwata was correct

[Omran]

no he is not :)

[ISHU]

Wow!
That was amazing!!

Hype level is over 9000!!

[THC CELL]

Amazing

[SoulWarrior]

Looks incredible, and the fact we know it's not pre recorded due to hilariously falling through the environment is good and we know it wasn't scripted :)

Love the extra emphasis on stealth it seems, it the was the main thing I wanted them to improve from the others, and stunning visuals!

Was I the only one who wanted ND to come on stage and make a joke about ubisoft and th Unity glitch where you fell through the floor? Would have been funny haha.

Early GOTY candidate right there.

[marlinfan10]

holy s***

[PR_FROM_OHIO]

SPEECHLESS

[Kid-Prodigy-KP]

One Word: Epic

[Plagasx]

That was a very underwhelming demo for the game...and that glitch didn't make things any better..

[PR_FROM_OHIO]

Salty Much?? Lol!!!

[Daz]

his has is opinion?

[johndoe11211]

What????

[Daz]

he has is opinion. But if his a fanboy then i understand ;p

[RedDevils]

His trolling opinion right.

[kenshiro100]

Your trolling was very weak. Perhaps you need to head back to under-the-bridge school.

[Ezz2013]

""That was a very underwhelming demo for the game""
WHAT ?!

and what the hell did you make Tom Hanks do in your avatar ?!

[PS4isKing_82]

I agree. It was basically nothing we haven't seen before on the previous games. Aside from the slightly better graphics, it's still uncharted. You still run round killing a gazillion enemies and making impossible jumps.

Never been a huge fan of the series myself and although it has better lighting and stuff, the graphics weren't a huge upgrade from the ps3 games. Yes it looked nice but I was expecting better after all the hype and everything.

[guyman]

everything about your comment is extremely ignorant. slightly better graphics?

I advise you to go for an eye test.

"you still run round killing a gazillion enemies and making impossible jumps"

Is that your analysis of the gameplay? the new grappling hook and pick axe combined with the insanely detailed and realistic environments and vegetation. There is clearly more strategy involved in gameplay due to smart AI, combined traversal, stealth, and combat this makes this game already superior to its predecessors at least from a graphical, level design and combat point of view

[rainslacker]

Hmmm...A game that uses the same mechanics as its predecessors. Yeah, I think UC fans will be fine with it. I would have liked to have seen a bit more of the better stealth mechanics they employed in TLOU though.

Hard for me to comment on the graphics being a youtube video and all. Will have to hunt down the high res version and download it.:)

[BX81]

Looks fun. Cant wait. Looks the same as phantom pain graphically. Next year will rock out

[ABeastNamedTariq]

Definitely wasn't scripted lol! No prerendered excuses or anything - just pure beauty. Everything else at the show is just icing on the cake to me

[xReDeMpTiOnx]

Omg mine blown, where and what will the nay Sayers come up with next other than the map bug, the animations from combat to swinging to running and everything looks so smooth already, and those graphics are easily unparalled for a console.

Naughty dog/gods have done it once again

[JimmyDM90]

When he used the grapple rope to punch that guy out... My head exploded.

[THE-COMMANDER]

I feel you bro.

[Relientk77]

Me too!

I am typing this headless

[typittt69]

Life's good today.... So pumped

[-Foxtrot]

Spoolsh

[Brisco]

Graphics are oké, not ground breaking. I thought that it would blow me away but it didn't.

[DeadlyOreo]

You are watching a stream?

[johndoe11211]

I was tempted to take your comment seriously but then I saw your comment history.....Soooo yeaaaaah....

[Spotie]

You thought nothing, except that you'd come in here and downplay something PlayStation related, as you've done in quite a few other articles.

[Dudebro90]

Looked like Uncharted. So that's good.

[Cubanborn87]

Holy cow, no words can describe what i just saw

[Immorals]

Now hurry up and announce an uncharted 1, 2 and 3 remaster so I can play through them first..

[GameDev1]

I just saw Heaven with that Uncharted footage, Incredible is the right word to describe it

[Manic2014]

Looks amazing, especially the gameplay. Graphics look terrific, Not as good as the target render shown during E3, but it looks fantastic.

[GamingTruth]

well several things but the fact that the game is open world might have been a change that happened since the first trailer and we haven't seen any real cutscenes yet so id wait on that

[Manic2014]

The game's environment is more open, but i don't think it is an open world game.

[ReturnToSanity]

Too bad the lead director left Naughty Dog to go work on Tomb Raider.

[GameDev1]

He is the lead art director Nate wells of past Naughty dog games

Do your research

Druckmann and Stratle are the main directors

[Silly gameAr]

Was that wishful thinking Sanity? I think that was a bit of wishful thinking there.

[Inception]

Just like your name suggest, i think you should return to sanity.

[Dan_scruggs]

I don't know man. The Order looks better. A lot better I think.

[BiggerBoss]

Keep in mind Uncharted still has almost a year left in development. Its also a lot more open than the Order.

I think both look incredible

[Ck1x]

If UC4 is running at 1080p 60fps, then that's all that needs to be said. It is known that UC4 will be an amazing game, the same can't be said for The Order!

[Angels3785]

it still has a year of development time.

look at comparisons of the order 1886 in its pre alpha state vs now...legions apart

[bawabuhari]

Shins of steel

[Rute]

I wonder how many pullups Nathan could muster... a hundred?

Graphically it looks very good, though I feel that the color balance could be altered a bit to make the sunlight more golden.

[hello12]

Remains me of farcry, nice graphics best looking game on PS4 so far. Gameplay is good, but nothing i haven't seen before.

Be interesting to see what Tombraider looks like, next year.

Its not running 60fps either, the game is running 30fps i knew it would.

[Sevir]

Its very much 60 fps... You can clearly see it

[All_Consoles]

It's definitely not 60fps, I even saw a few stutters

[MaxwellBuddha]

@Sevir

Clearly YOU cant.

[the_dark_one]

seriously? i wonder why you cant see 60fps? oh yeah thats right this video is youtube standard at 30 and not 1080/60fps just wait until its available and make the same comment

oh and Tomb Raider, in YOUR eyes will look miles better and 60fps no sutter.

we all already know you are just a first class massive out of this world xbone fan. so whatever you going to say its olny going to make you look bad, even if irs saying something good about your xbox

[MaxwellBuddha]

"seriously? i wonder why you cant see 60fps? oh yeah thats right this video is youtube standard at 30 and not 1080/60fps just wait until its available and make the same comment "

Oh, dearie dear:
http://www.gamersyde.com/ne...

29.97 frame rate. Actually it's less than that. That's why it stutters.

So, to recap:

-MASSIVE downgrade from E3 reveal
http://i.imgur.com/tLScv7s....

-NO 60 fps
-ONCE AGAIN steals game mechanics from Tomb Raider

[Clarence]

Yeah ok. Don't worry Naughty dog knows what their doing. Tomb raider will not be able to compete with Uncharted.

[Snookies12]

Um, they have a year of development time left... They don't usually focus on optimizing framerate until way later. It's a capped 30 right now, but they've already said they're targeting 60 before launch.

[AbhishekGIS]

Can't wait for uc4
plz end console war and unite

[oIITSBIIo]

Graphics is pretty good but not so special .

[fanboysmackdown]

Looks great and can't wait. It's not the best looker, cause I think The Order takes that prize but this still looks fantastic. Has the classic Naughty Dog look and I'm sure it'll play as good as all their other games or better.

[GamingTruth]

order 1886 isn't 60fps and open world

[Angels3785]

uncharted 4 is not open world either. It has more open level design, but it is a linear game

[OOMagnum]

Great looking game. But it looks like the same old story again, hopefully not though.

[tlougotg]

Best looking game hands down, lighting, foliage all over the place, animations on point and more open. This is how You make next gen and yes evolve and make things more realistic. Love Sony because they always pushing the bar, instead of keeping it safe and giving us same old same old. Im @ucking hype and yeah glitches happen when gameplay is actually shown instead of a live action trailer or cgi lol we know what company loves doing tht and then acts like its gameplay lol

FTW Don't best gaming company and did you hear tht "fastest selling console ever, the King is back!!!! @uck E3!!!!! This is where it's at every year now.

[Hakoom]

damn...
what will the full game be like..
i want it now >.<

[Bathyj]

Holy snapping duck $h+t.

First up, GORGEOUS. I'm watching it scrappy low rez video on a tablet and it's seriously impressive.

2Nd. How great was the action? It seemed so free flowing. He was constantly adapting to what was going on,he never had a minute to rest.

3Rd. I love the stealth. I really liked how surprisingly good the stealth in uncharted 3 was and when last of Us was first announced it didnt surprise me at all that it looked so stealth centric and turned out so well. I can't help but wonder if that first guy hadn't seen him on the ledge would he have been able to ghost his way through the whole level. I really hope so from a gameplay perspective.

Lastly. Grapple hook. YES!!

Obviously we can't call game of the year for 2015 yet, but I'm calling it as a contender.

[LarVanian]

What is with the haters? The game looks awesome! I can't wait to hear more detail! Especially details on Drake's 'brother' :D.

[Bathyj]

Well you know what haters are gonna do...

[Kingdomcome247]

I couldn't begin to even hazard a guess...lol

[Daz]

Carnt people have opinion. if its it not a positive one its hating ;/

[Silly gameAr]

Well, the people that have something negative to say, are kinda repeat and known haters. Opinions are fine, but when you hate just for the sake of hating...

[Rick_Ross_Boss]

People don't instantly have to love something just because fan boys think its the best thing since sliced bread. its called an constructive opinion

[LarVanian]

Gee having been on N4G since 2008 I've always known that there have been quite a few sensitive users here. But seriously I never realised how low the self-esteem of some people here was until I saw the great offence they took to the term 'haters' -_-.
I hope you and Daz have finished with your liberal thesis, Rick. It would be cool if we could start to discuss and speculate what we'll see from U4. The thing I am most intrigued by so far is the new character Sam and whether or not he is indeed Drake's biological brother.

[Kingdomcome247]

@LarVanian- I wondered that as well. I'm inclined to think that he is really his brother.

[Kingdomcome247]

I am in awe of the foliage. Move over Cryengine, you're no longer foliage king.

[RiseofScorpio]

Indianathan Jrake sure does talking to himself, would have been better if they made it seem like he was speaking in his mind other than the "shit" and "woah" every now and then.

[Sm00thNinja]

False alarm it was YouTube QUALITY! Game is beautiful but not the most impressive game I've seen on PS4. Bloodborne is more impressive visually imo! Slowly becoming a PlayStation fan regardless Microsoft wtf do you have for me in 2015?!?

[Ninver]

o...m...g I'm speechless

[AlphaBlackWolf96]

The rocks, the water, the character's faces...they all looked so real. And the sounds of the guns...oh yes.

[HeMan76]

Quantum Break looking 10x better than this.I am realy not impressed one bit.Come on ND show us what you got when the game released.The people thinking I am trolling these are my eyes and my opinions.

lol@disaggrees Ryse literally kills this and Quantum Break tears it piece by piece"IF" the game get released with that visual quality plus what happened to 1080p/60fps? was a sweet dream lol!!!

[Angels3785]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA XDDDDDD

[reaperofsouls]

hurting butt alert lol ^^

[LordMaim]

"Quantum Break looking 10x better than this"

I would bubble you up for "Funny", if your comment history didn't tell me what you'd use it for.

[GMR_PR]

Looks good. Nothing like the first reveal though.

[VealParmHero]

BOOOIIOOIIOOIIIIINNNGGG!! HE EHEHE EHEHE

[VealParmHero]

why did anyone disagree? are u not excited??

[iiorestesii]

That fauna though! Indiana Jones with the grappling hook!

[stiggs]

Wow! This looks fantastic...like a big budget animated film.

Bring it on!

[stiggs]

What's with the disagrees? The game looks incredible even at this early stage.

Wait, do some of you think that I was putting the game down? My assessment of the game's design and aesthetics was a COMPLIMENT! Aren't game designers always striving to replicate the quality of animation that we see in big budget CGI films? As far as I know that is the high bar in animation/graphics.

[rmw2hot87]

Uncharted 4 looks insane

[Gatsu]

It reminded me a lot of Tomb Raider. Like climbing cliffs with a knife was a straight copy lol, strong knife btw and not a fan of the endless waves of enemies. But it does look amazing.

[lemoncake]

This is the game my ps4 is waiting for, the fighting was really great and smooth. The wait for launch has now become even more painful.

[Bowzabub]

Yeah. Day 1.

[RiseofScorpio]

....in 2016.

[Bowzabub]

Right next to Zelda huh? Yeah, day 1 on that too. :]

[Ashunderfire86]

One of my heavy hitters for winter 2015! Uncharted 4, Rise of the Tomb Raider, Halo 5,The Division, and Zelda Wii U! The best of the best for me. Uncharted 4 vegetation, draw distance, and great graphics and intelligent A.I. is enough for a purchase. Game of the year already like this lol!

https://www.youtube.com/wat...

[juaburg91]

LOL at the South African accents :) Representing, hehe

[DougLord]

The scene is set for an epic showdown. UC4 vs Halo 5. The last UC sold 6.5mm copies. The last Halo sold 9.5mm. FIGHT!!!

Actually I'm buying a PS4 this summer for KUF2, so I'll have both.

[iliimaster]

looks good i just hope the flow between puzzles and climbing dont outpace the actual storyline/gameplay i really felt like tombraider captured some of that uncharted 1 feeling and to me part 3 was non stop puzzle solving that really got in the way of the story for me

[True_Samurai]

What happen to the graphics shown at e3? This looks nothing like it. The order looks waaay better

[Ninver]

Pre alpha footage troll

[Gemmol]

he is not trolling, sony said it with their words that the footage at e3 was in game footage, so he is comparing the in game footage from e3 with the in game footage of today and he is right, even if its alpha, and e3 was alpha, its still a down grade from e3.....put your sony visors down, its not like he was saying a whole bunch of bad things about sony he was just pointing out one thing and he gets called a troll.... smh

[Harold_Finch]

It basically went downhill from there.

The Order 1886 and No Man's Sky look terrific as usual but i say " as usual." The others are just not for me, i wish i liked eclectic games but i don't.

There were more Dungeons in that press conference than leaves on the uncharted trees.

[D3athc3ll]

Oh well,

ND is great and awesome, but this does not look like the prerendered version. Yes it looks great and I dont think youll find a better looking ps4 game soon.

But, this does not put pc to rest. Even Crysis 1 on pc had better foliage.... Plants etc.

Guess consoles will never look better than pc again. Not like the PS3 360 era where gears of war came out and looked better than anything etc.

Looks good though, best ive seen on console so far.

Well done pc, you will not be mocked again!!

[GamingTruth]

lol

[WickedLester]

D3athc3ll

If that's how you feel then just wait for it to come out on PC...oh that's right, it never will! All you PC guys are the same. The only argument you guys can ever make is the horsepower argument, which is stupid because you conveniently never look at it from a performance to cost ratio (good luck building a 399.99 pc to perform the way the PS4 does). And of course you never hear PC gamers arguing exclusive content because deep down they know consoles absolutely rape PC's when it comes to exclusives.

Why don't you go defrag a hard drive and stay out of the console related threads.

[D3athc3ll]

LOL!

Im not a pc gamer - I own a ps4 and a pc for Dota2 only. Ive got a GTX 660 Msi - nothing special...

Im just tired of all the downgrades. Silly to show a game like the teaser trailer back at E3 and promising the game will look like that, when Its not even near. I showed that video to a lot of pc dudes and saying see what ps4 can do, they were like wow, not even $1000 rigs can do that at the moment... Now a $600 rig can do more...

Sadness...

Sony lied just like Ubisoft did. They are all liars! This is the Generation of DOWNGRADES!

Every game! lol....

Oh well. Bets graphics on consoles ive seen and imho it looks better than Crysis 3 on pc! But not the result I expected....

The gameplay looks good compared to previous Uncharted games, which was epic btw.

But I do think The Order 1886 will get best graphics next year, depends on how they polish Uncharted till release.

I hate pc fanboys, but what I hate more is lies from Developers and this Gen is all about lies and fake trailers!

Spoiler ALERT!!! The Division gets downgraded too!

[WickedLester]

@D3atch3II

Dude you sound like a whiny 4 year old. If you truly think this generation has been disappointing from a graphics perspective, you've obviously not been playing the same games I have. Why don't you wait until the game is out of PRE-ALPHA before you make any rash judgments. This isn't Naughty Dog's first rodeo. They know a thing or two about game development. Besides that, did you ever stop to consider that the game might actually be "gasp" a blast play?!? You say you're not a PC gamer but you could have fooled me with the way you talk. If horsepower is all you're concerned with then perhaps you SHOULD be a PC gamer. As for me, I'll continue to enjoy all the great console exclusives and not get hung up on how many polygons my machine is pushing.

[whoyouwit04]

I don't care what you Sony fans say, this game graphically looks like trash specially coming from naughty dog. This barley looks better then the last tomb raider and this game is being made for the PS4 from the ground up. Now The game play does look great which is what really is important, but you you Sony fans need to stop lying to yourselves. Stop saying this is the best looking game ever, hell it's not even in that category right now.

[Angels3785]

HAHAHAHAHAHA XDDDDDDD

Also its PRE alpha footage.

[Silly gameAr]

Sounds like the only one that's lying to themselves around here is you. The game looked incredible. Maybe not the best looking game ever but beautiful none the less. Don't get so angry about it.

[Sketchy_Galore]

Well.... post pics of this barley you speak of and let us decide for ourselves. I love wheats and grains as much as the next guy but I'm not just gonna take your word for it that the stuff you're holding puts Tomb raider to shame,

[ironmonkey]

why you crying?

[Ck1x]

Gamers are extremely spoiled these days. Everyone wanted to see game play of both UC4 and Zelda and when they show it, straight criticism of what will easily be 2 of the GoTY nominees by far. Wanting to know if the story is going to be good or if the game play elements will be fleshed out or If the world will be more densely populated is a insult to developers of this caliber. You got to see a work in progress because they chose to include fans in on the early makings of excellence. No one in their right minds would go up to the best songwriter and tell them how to make their song better in the middle of them writing it! People you have regular 9 to 5 jobs for a reason. So keep them and let true artist do what they do best for a living...

[Inception]

Yeah i don't really understand gamers this gen. They are so...entitled to their opinion. The game still in developement, but even though it looks great and fun to play. The story also looks interesting when Drake's (big?) brother showed up in the end of demo. Yet here we are with some people saying it looks rubbish, boring, etc. SMH.

[LightDiego]

Just amazing, i remember that awesome first footage of The Last of Us on E3, can't wait for Uncharted 4.
A lof of salty comments here too, lol, that's the Uncharted effect. :P

[RealtorMDandDC]

Very True.....You've Coined it... "The Uncharted Effect" coming to a forum near you.

[vakarian75]

Drake is one ugly man.

[maniacmayhem]

The action was very impressive. I'm not an Uncharted fan but this looked good...the graphics were nice but I think watching it on this youtube might not do it real justice. Because although the graphics were good it wasn't jaw dropping.

I was more impressed with the action overall.

[strickers]

Anyone that thinks this looks less than stellar clearly has no idea what they are looking at.
Not opinion either. The visuals are outstanding.

[TheMapleNerd]

I would love to play it, but i can't help but see all the ps4 owners talking about that this make all pc games look last-gen, and hating on PC.
Every new game from a major developer will set the bar high for other games to follow. The only game i can find that will match this game for sure in the same genre is The Division, unless it gets a downgrade.

[SwiftArsonist]

downgrade: evidence

[ChrisChambers]

Only thing I don't like about this demo is the instant choke out with the rifle and the death animations. The original Brothers in Arms did them perfectly, you shoot a guy and he drops like a pile of rocks, yet I can't think of many other games that have done that instead of having some canned animation. And the choke out should at least be a QT event or something...Overall though I'd say those are small complaints in the grand scheme of things

[Rick_Ross_Boss]

The game does look good but certainly nothing ground-breaking in any department. Looks like uncharted 3.5 to me.
The order, Quantum break, Witcher 3, Assassins creed unity/Far Cry 4 (pc) look more visually impressive. And some of them are open world.
We still buy it though

[pop-voxuli]

I'm a father of two, have a vasectomy and therefore have no need for my left nut so please take it in trade for this!!!

[Saito]

Look at that downplay and stealth disagrees man. UC4 is shaping up to be a beautiful game. But man look at that hate in this section..

[u4one]

looks pretty freakin sweet

[brando008]

My God thank you Naughty Dog and thank you Sony!

[PS3and4_HAS_GAMES]

Graphics and game play are simply amazing. Did you see how he swung from his rope right in to a bad guy with a punch. CRAZY!!!!!! glad i have me a ps4

[Rainbowcookie]

Even the A.I looked good a few niggles here and there but man the scale is awesome. Hope they release a remaster of the previous 3 to let some guys who missed the previous gen get into it . As a Christian I just find it offensive that he says Jesus I really wish games would be more sensitive towards peoples believes but yeah ... I'll probable get a lot of flack for that comment , but it still looks awesome.

[Condemnedman]

You guys get so excited it looks lovely but hardly last wetting...

[StormLegend]

That was beautiful!!!!!!!!

[marcofdeath]

Game play was good but it still did not look better than RYSE or Quantum Break
http://static.gamespot.com/...

http://static.gamespot.com/...

WHY is that?

[windblowsagain]

ROFL, are you kidding.

Textures, animations, foliage/water was totally dynamic. Huge world. 1080p and still a year away.

As for Ryse, it's a good looking game based on a well established engine 900p. Cryengine 3.

Quantum break looks good as well and impressed in many area's.

Go watch that early footage again in 1080p!

[ziggurcat]

"WHY is that?"

1. because you're a troll.

2. because you're comparing this game, where the footage you were shown was *pre-alpha*, with two completely different games that are:

a) already on the market

and

b) much further along in the development stage

3. because you're a troll.

[imt558]

Dumbass troll! Say hello to your boss MisterX

[boodi]

to me the game look quite "normal"
was expecting much more photorealism and different game dynamics , quite a let down to be honest

[saimcheeda]

That is all. Simply Amazing!

[getmad]

Ps4 fanboys make me laugh. Everyone's jizzing all over the place in the comments. I agree,it looks pretty good but i actually expected more. But jesus the fanboys are annoying...

[P_Bomb]

I swear, no one complains as much as gamers. "Yeah you look good naked, but I expected more from a wife. This just looks like girlfriend 1.5. You still have nice teeth, but the lack of volumetric lighting on your #%* just pulled me out of the overall experience. Same old mechanics, I guess I was just expecting more based on your pre-alpha selfies."

Anyways, looks good to me. Tight gameplay too. Jungle's gonna sound ace with surround.

[purp13m0nk3y]

Finally IQ that looks genuinely "next gen".

1080/60p and no jaggies to be seen! Not sure what AA solution Naughty Dog have implemented but damn that is a beautiful crisp image. The level of detail in the environment is also hugely impressive!

I always knew ND would set the bar again this gen. Truly impressive demo!

[shysun]

Damn! That looks fun as hell! :)

[AC2020x]

The awesome thing is that its the story of these games that I love so much! When the gameplay and graphics are top notch as well, you really can't go wrong!!!

[TheGrimReaper0011]

Starting off with Uncharted 4 was a really bad move on Sony's part. They should have ended with that to really leave a lasting impression. That said ...

Thanks to the demo, I had to go out and buy 2 more boxes of tissues. Thanks for that Naughty Dog!
But all joking aside, I am sooooo excited for this game, I can hardly wait!! >_<

[Killzoner99]

Naughty Gods why are you so good to us? I don't even know what to say. These graphics are the best I've ever seen.

[ManiacMansion]

I know you are 15 years old... thats how you sound...

[Tzuno]

To be honest even Crysis looks better, i expected more, this kind of graphics are nothing out of the ordinary. Not trolling, really, just my thoughts on this.

[ManiacMansion]

Why is every Sony Fanboy here mentioning that this is PRE-ALPHA??? So you agree that it looks like UC3 but just in full HD??

Lets be honest... 90 percent of the games which are in alpha stadium look the same on release... ND works already more than 2 years on this and has only 1 year left.

I dont expect to much from this since the lead director left ND... since UC2 the game got worse...

[urwifeminder]

Even in the future games wont be able to compare ever with the tombpoacher 8.

[Give_me_head_strong]

What happened to 60fps? Lol

[masa2009]

Feels weird to see this brand new tech mixed with the same old traversal stuff with implausibly protruding ledges that's been around since Prince of Persia Sands of Time in 2002. Almost anachronistic.

But I must say that the combat sandbox looked nice and a bit more open, like an extention of the stuff briefly seen in the shipyard scene of UC3.

[slane3]

butthurt microbots......games looks amazing.

[MadLad]

Honestly isn't the huge graphical leap over the past titles that everyone was making it out to be.

[edqe]

Highly scripted linear corridor shooter. I'm wondering why so many gamers gets excited about these types of games.

[WickedLester]

Maybe if you actually played them instead of running your mouth on a games forum about things you have no clue about, you would understand.

[ballsohard2013]

folks... folks... now this is Next Gen. And its only the opening scene of the game. I love naughty dog! They push the envelop on innovation. After a pretty stale and bland 2014 i feel like 2015 will be a great year for gaming on both consoles. Uncharted on Ps4 and Quantun Break on x1 will be my musthaves so far for 2014.

Looking great so far.... looks beyond promising. I hope this will be a game of the year contender and deliver a new standard for next gen. Super excited

[Dyldog69]

Is it me or is Nate's diaper in need of changing. Deuce deuce

[babis1974]

Amazing....imagine how it would be The Last Of Us 2?

[BushLitter]

Game is definitely set in Africa, Baobab trees are a dead give-away. Possibly South Africa; enemy accents are 100% South African, also the initial reveal trailer showed the coast line of South Africa. Hope Drake makes a turn around Durban :D

[tigertron]

Clearly the best looking game ever made next to The Order 1886.

This game may now be my most wanted game of 2015.

[MadLad]

Clearly you're blind.

[ltachiUchiha]

The butthurt in this article is strong lol. These ppl crying know this game already from this small demo is GOTY Material. Theres a reason these guys are the best studio in the industry. Tomb Raider will be delayed. Trust me remember all those sh*t talkers who try an say tomb raider was better then uncharted. What happened when TLOU released? It crapped all over Tomb Raider. Same thing will happen again.

[Father Murder X]

doesn't look much different than the others. There is no way that this gets confused with cgi. Not saying that its a bad game but all the OMG its looks so real etc is not warranted.

[RealtorMDandDC]

The crazy thing UC4 is still about one year away.

If it looks this good today. My mind cannot comprehend what 300 days of polish will do!!!!

--Gotta lay down...head is spinning...my mind can't compute.

[Stoppokingme]

If you didn't think that was impressive, you need glasses.

The character animation doesn't look much different from last gen but the rest was fantastic.

and that Vista half way through...wow.

[Psytrix]

I missed the keynote - is there anywhere I can watch it?

[solidt12]

This game looks incredible. i cant wait to play it.

[MonopolyRSV]

Not excited about the single player. The action looked good but nothing over the top like the trailers they had for 2 and 3. I'm more interested in the multiplayer, U3's was really good.

[MAULxx]

My jaw fell all the way to the floor.
