In-game characters like a Drake costume for SackBoy or a ModNation Racer Drake character would be cool, but a themed pinball game is stupid. An Uncharted themed PS3 or PSP would be cool too since it'd be limited edition but an arcade game with an Uncharted theme is lame.

It'll probably a be a decent pinball game but it'll cost $10 extra due to the licensing.

There are OTHER GAMES getting the SAME treatment; it just so happens that Uncharted is one of them.

sinncross5276d ago

It is merely a themed version of a Pinball game being released, not an official Uncharted Pinball game.

It is merely to appeal to UC fans or get PSP owners interested in UC as a franchise. I personally don't see that as milking. Its pretty much like the MSS theme for LBP. LPB is the game, MGS the theme: just as Pinball Heroes is the game, and the Uncharted version graphical variation of it.

Time for Sony to milk Uncharted.

It was either this or Uncharted Racing.

Crash Bandicoot - PS1
Jak & Daxter - PS2
Uncharted - PS3

I am sure there will be plenty of ModNation Racers characters that look Uncharted characters

thereapersson5276d ago (Edited 5276d ago )

There are four other games besides Uncharted that are getting this treatment. Oh, but I forgot, because people blame Halo for being milked, it's okay for your to claim that Uncharted is getting the same treatment?

Halo
Halo 2
Halo 3
Halo Wars (RTS)
Halo Books
Halo ODST
Halo: Reach (in development)
Halo Legends (Japanese Anime series in production)

Vs.

Uncharted
Uncharted 2
Uncharted motion comic
Uncharted Pinball

Pulling up Halo is how you prove they are not milking it? Sorry but MS milking Halo doesnt really prove anything.

Halo3 MLG Pro5276d ago

Why choose Halo? Why not choose Metal Gear Solid or Final Fantasy or Mario? Those 3 games have been milked to death.

evrfighter5276d ago

I was just shown that uncharted is just about halfway to catching up to Halo in one console generation...

you just made Uncharted look like a milked franchise...

Elven65276d ago

Simple, if you guys think a game with sequels that are rated highly (80+ on MC) qualifies as milking the franchise, just don't buy it! More copies for the rest of us! :) Enjoy the Final Fantasy, Metal Gear, Spyro, Crash, etc games that have 70- averages on MC.

I think people will think there are screens at the link if I put it under Images. Will keep it under news.

kaveti66165277d ago

Let the record show that there is no Halo Pinball as of yet. jk

I couldn't care less about the debate. Give the fans what they want.
