Gonna get on the beta now.

Absolutely loved TLOUs multiplayer so high hopes for this

Just done the tutorial.

Maybe it was just my expectation but the graphics seem fairly average. Ive only seen one map and of course its a beta, and I appreciate that graphics are usually better on single player but even so.. Im not convinced it looks better than TLOUs multiplayer.

Might just be the art style but yeah.. I await the 'what a surprise' comments.

Tutorial felt off but first game on a rooftops map looked better and I quickly got use to it once properly playing.

9-4 on my first game. Loads of fun as youd expect. Anyone on let me know.

Multiplayer is fun and the gameplay is solid, but it might get boring as its pretty uninspriring. Adds nothing to previous Uncharted multiplayer and loses TLOUs crafting element which was great.

Played a few games last night, multiplayer is just meh... typical run and gun with power ups. Bit disappointing after what they did with TLOU's multiplayer, i know different style of games, but TLOU multiplayer felt like it was new and fresh... the pacing and tension were great. This just seem's like your typical rushed multiplayer tagged onto a game.

Loving the multiplayer. I'm shite at FPS MP games like COD and Rainbow Six Siege where everything is twitchy and one shot kills but this is just chaotic fun where you can take a bit of damage and use silly powerups.

I see that the release date has been pushed back by a couple weeks. Really looking forward to this, thanks to all those who told me to stick with it and give it a try. Finished 1,2 and 3 over the span of a couple weeks and loved it.

My heartfelt advice: Buy it, play it and fail your exams.

Anyone see the easter egg ND put into this? Don't want to say what it is since I don't want to spoiler anyone, but it's pretty great :D

Reviews are in. 94 on Metacritic.

A very rare 10 from GameSpot

Can't wait.

Nobody is getting stock until Monday, so I wouldn't get excited about your order processing.

Do I need to have played the first three to enjoy this?

Skip to 34:15, or watch the whole thing if you have the time, but around that mark they explain why you'd be a fool to just jump in to this game without having played the others, even if you technically dont need to.

How does Naughty Dog do it? I can't believe the level of graphics their games all employ. The intricacy of details that goes into every single location or environment is mind boggling for a game. Its absolutely stunning.

It's because they have the industry's best artists working for them. Eytan Zana, Nick Gindraux, John Sweeney and Robh Ruppel mainly.

Switched my order from simply games to the game collection and got my copy today. But I'm currently in the process of finishing part 3.

I'm trying to finish Uncharted 2 before buying this, probably going to skip the third as I've heard it's the weakest?

Isn't the desert fight in the third? That was beautiful. I can't think of an Uncharted game that was ever weak.

I'd play the third if I was you, pointless playing 1, 2, skipping 3 then buying 4. I'm going to play through the first three again to refresh my memory before playing 4.

So I got this on Saturday, finished today. Already looking forward to the next playthrough (I burned through it as I had 2 days off and no time to play in the next month).

Worthy of all the plaudits, not about to spoil it for anyone but this is up there. Set piece kings.

I heard that for the third they concentrated more on the multiplayer experience then the story, which is why I thought I might be able to skip it. Good to hear that's not the case tbh.
