Uncharted 4: A Thief's End

Wow, when I had discovered Amy Hennig was taken off the game...well I was worried. And even though everything we had seen was great, it still didn't scream uncharted to me, it felt like they were just trying to make another last of us, out of an existing franchise. But no, this game screams uncharted loud and clear, and that voice has never been more majestic.This game fires on every cylinder, well at least the cylinder that an uncharted game, after two, would need too, but it does so much more.

Never before have I been so emotionally invested it a game before ( after than the last of us, but I had no prior attachment to that game, and so was slightly less invested). Neil Drukkman clearly took what he could do best and bought it to this game, beautiful characterization. Never before has Drake, Elena, Sully, and anyone else in this series felt so real, and I don't just mean graphics. There are in real situations, they face real day to day decisions. Nate and Elena clearly feel out of place in there day to day lives, but they know it's just realistic to put everything else behind them. Rafe ( or however you spell his name ) has actual motivations you can understand ( ish ).

And the game play and graphics are beautiful, this being the most cinematic game I've ever played in my life, and every bit of gameplay has been improved and the addition of the grapple and vehicles was brilliant. The ending alone is worth the price, I teared up, it's so satisfying. But you need to have played the other games to feel the whole weight of its emotional punch. If you are an uncharted fan, and you have not yet picked this up...shame on you. And if you are a fan of great games, and are setting on the fence, please give uncharted a try, but please start with the first three. 10/10 flawless.
