    • Yeah, Star Soldier (which I played on the NSO last year) is what this reminds me of! Same developers, I take it? That game definitely needed a way to make obstacles and environment more obvious to the player.
    • Looks like a fairly decent shooter in the same vein as Hudson’s Star Soldier series. If 3D Xevious is anything to go by (and it probably is), I bet this looks tits in S3D!
    • Yep, we’ve followed up Uncharted 1-3 with Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End. Gameplay-wise this follows the blueprint of the the previous games (“if it ain’t broke….”) so there was a lot of 3rd person shootouts, more ‘ninja warrior’ style climbing acrobatics, more perilous situations for Nathan Drake to find himself in, and more adrenaline pumping set pieces. The whole game looks fantastic, whether it be crumbling ruins, expensive villas or Arabic market towns.  Even if it’s just to essentially to create a pathway to another area looks impressive and in turn makes locations feel more immersive.  Naughty Dog put a lot of effort into the detail of each area. Nathan’s brother is a new character, voiced by Troy Baker (Joel from The Last of Us for those unaware), and the banter between the two is strong throughout.  The story brings a lot of focus to Drake’s family and his relationships and for me it was a natural fit to the stories established in previous titles and answered some of the previously outstanding questions. There was a little more focus on hand-to-hand combat (more so with your NPC friends alongside you) and the new grappling hook was just an extra option for traversing the terrain.  These were the only noticeable new additions for me, along with some driving sections which felt comfortable to control.  To be honest I was happy they hadn’t really changed much, and the set pieces were again fantastic! My wife and I both thoroughly enjoyed another Nathan Drake outing, and it stands to how well the gameplay, dialogue and set pieces were, that we played 4 games back-to-back with a similar gameplay loop and didn’t get bored once.  It’s a shame Naughty Dog have suggested that they’ve no plans for any more Uncharted games as I expect there’s still a thriving market for them, or at least there is in our household!
    • I guess Wall-E will be getting released next month on the service. https://www.exophase.com/game/disneyopixar-wall-e-psn/trophies/
    • I think I only went to one and we ended up in a pub on Rathbone Place. Unless that was another event.
