@WackerJr there is another one. It doesn't have Nate in it, but it's still great, it's called The Lost Legacy.

 

(Golden Abyss is also good fun)

I definitely didn't enjoy The Lost Legacy as much as the previous Uncharted games and I think part of that was probably making some of it more open.

I did pick up The Nathan Drake Collection on PS4 a few years ago with the intention of playing through the first 3 games again but that never looks like happening.

The same is sadly true of a lot of PS4 games I purchased at the beginning of the decade 🥲

Thanks, I hadn’t realised that! I may have to track that down! 😁

I am still plugging away at BOTW2 when I can. Got to the Goron dungeon, and not enjoying it much. The combination of darkness + lava mist stuff that permanently locks your hearts up makes it frustrating.

I finished the next game of my 10 picks, Viewtiful Joe

It's stylish, and enjoyable with some really fun combat mechanics, with an amusing story and looks really nice.

However, I found enemies took far too many hits until they dies, and some of the enemies seemed to have far more health than others of the same type. I did really like the use of the VFX powers for puzzles and the objectives that cropped up, but the difficulty of the combat was just insane. 

The next game on my list isn't far away from this one.

Back when it came out, I could never beat Viewtiful Joe, even on Kids difficulty.

Yes, it was Fire Leo. I know I'm not alone in saying that's an insane difficulty jump.
After playing through 3 Bayonetta games, maybe I should give it another go...

I initially thought that the Street Shark was an insane difficulty jump. It got a second release in Japan with an easier mode added.
