Whoa! Ok that trailer kicked ass. I loved it. It got me so pumped. The music, That Raiders March gets me every time. I had a small joy gasm, but at the same time I was greatly disappointed.
It was like someone else so eloquently put it. Like giving me money and kicking me in the balls at the same time. I just don't understand it.
I have an X-Box 360 and a PS3, so yea I'm pissed. Have any of you guys played Uncharted Drake's Fortune? That's a great Indiana Jones style action/adventure video game. I love this game.
Not only was a game play fun and the graphics amazing, but the production value of this game is amazing.
I'm a sucker for these types of Pulp/Serial Adventure inspired stuff.I think that's obvious me being such a huge Indiana Jones fan. I loved the characters and the story and the game play (the gun fights are intense)
After I beat it I felt like I had just seen a really good adventure movie. The music the voice over everything about this game was great. You could tell they took their time with it, Very High production value. Nathan Drake was a great character. Heroic, funny and real down to earth, Sully was great too. Elena was also a great female character with an approachable non threatening beauty. She was real, a strong independent female character that did not have to over do it or over compensate. Basically she was not a *****.
I thought this game was way better than any of the Tomb Raider games. I identified with the characters way more. Nathan and Elena are just regular people and really easy to relate to. I felt connected to them.
Lara Croft is this British super hot rich chick bad ass, who frankly is a bit of a *****.Shes Really hard to relate to, sure I enjoy TR games as much as the next guy, but on an entirely superficial level. In Uncharted I felt connected to the characters and totally enthralled by the story.
I think the characters in Uncharted, in just one game, were more developed and realized than *ANY character in the Tomb Raider games, and that series has been around for over 10 years.
I think that the Pulp Adventure genre is so horribly under-utilized in games. we get FPS after FPS, and while those are enjoyable, sometimes you just want some light-hearted fun in your games that aren't limited to games geared towards the younger audience.
Uncharted fit that bill, and i hope more games appear that will flesh out this genre of games. I was hoping that This new Indy game was going to give Uncharted a run for their money.
If any game was ever going to be better than Uncharted it would have been the next gen Indy Game, but now that's not a possibility.
Sigh! Oh well at least I have Uncharted 2 to look forward to.
BTW I think the guy doing Indy's voice in the trailer is great. He's 100 times better than the guy from Emperor's Tomb.
