I never liked Tomb Raider and I own an Xbone and 360 if I cared for this new cross gen 360/Xbone game, I have the required hardware just in case...however, I have no interest. I've never liked Lara.
I'd imagine PS4 owners will play Uncharted 4 which is comparable (+ not cross gen like Tomb Raider) and Wii U owners probably will have Zelda or something equally good.
really i played both the new tomb raider (on PC) had a much better experience with it then unchartered 1-3
i guess diff strokes for diff folks i actually id rate the new tomb raider way over the uncharted ive played it wasn't even close for me just the gameplay was way more fun an i really digged the characters and and mechanics more
i can't even see how someone would like uncharted more after playing both i just dont see it personally
I've always disliked Tomb Raider since it started in the 90s by CORE and the recent ones are better than the originals imo (Crystal/Eidos even hired amazing Sony talent for the last TR game), but whatever. Personally, I feel Crystal Dynamics is wasting their talent on Tomb Raider when they could be pumping out Legacy of Kain which is where they started instead of maintaining a CORE game IP. I know business though and Crystal goes where they are told to go.
What is disappointing about the latest entry of TR is that the game is being held back by the 2005 released, last gen 360. Uncharted 4 won't be limited in that way as it's not releasing on 2006 last gen released PS3.
As far as your last sentence about how you can't see anyone enjoying Uncharted more than Tomb Raider...here's what professional critics say:
80/100 metascore Tomb Raider Legend
77/100 metascore Tomb Raider Anniversary
75/100 metascore Tomb Raider Underworld
86/100 metascore Tomb Raider Reboot (Cory Barlog of Sony left Sony to help and then went back to Sony after)
80, 77, 75, 86 (not one game in the AAA/90's from Crystal)
----
88/100 metascore Uncharted 1
96/100 metascore Uncharted 2
92/100 metascore Uncharted 3
88, 96, 92 (two of the three entries AAA/90's from Naughty Dog). ND took a break from Uncharted to create TLOU (95/100 metascore).
It seems to be being as objective as possible, Uncharted has an advantage in both being considered a better series by the world's critics and Uncharted 4 not being designed around old PS3 architecture. What I find neat is seeing what the Xbone and PS4 can do. I'm so tired of cross gen multiplats and so games that are NOT on PS360 like Batman Arkham Knight, Witcher 3, Halo 5, and Uncharted 4 are definitely more exciting than games designed around old hardware. As a tech fan, I'm more excited by current gen developed games that omit old hardware.
Gameplay wise? I can understand someone preferring one over the other though, it's all good. By looking at the critics, they are both good game series, but Uncharted is the critical darling. That said, if someone prefers mechanics or what have you, by all means have at it. I laid that all out because you said you couldn't understand how and these scores might help you understand that. BTW: I do own the reboot TR game, but it's just not a game that held my attention.
