Completely forgot this game even existed.

Please don't be Uncharted. 3 was so bad. 2 great games is enough from that IP, ready for something new.
Uncharted 3 (9.0 from gs) Last of us (8.0 from gs)
think i know which one is the best
I haven't played Last of Us, so I'm not going to comment on that. But here's everything that's wrong with Uncharted 3:
-All the firefights were 5 minutes too long.
-The story was designed around the set pieces, rather than the set pieces being designed around the story. Seriously, what the **** was that boat level even for?
-The player is funneled down one path, and there is no room for exploring alternate routes. This is a problem in the other games, of course, but 4 years and 2 games after Drake's Fortune, the scripting is old.
-Interesting idea for a villain, but she wasn't fleshed out nearly enough. I kept expecting more light to be shed on her past with Drake and Sully, but it never happened. I also would've liked to see more of Charlie. Him and Chloe just disappear partway through the game.
-Elena and Drake break up again only to reunite after another life-or-death adventure. So not only does ND copy themselves, but Elena and Drake's relationship has now become absurd. If they cannot be happy with each other outside of fighting for their lives, they clearly don't belong together.
-The desert segment was great, when Drake is clinging onto life and without water. But then, after not having any sort of relief, comes across the first wave of enemies and is completely fine. Better than fine, actually. He's his usual superhuman self.
-The spiders were pretty lame, and The Mummy did it better. The Mummy did a lot of things better than Uncharted 3 (I think that's the first time I've ever said something positive about that movie).
-How exactly did that city start sinking again?
There's more, but I think I've listed enough. So Among Thieves>>>Drake's Fortune>>>>>>>>>Drake's Deception.

The upfront cost for PC gaming is high, it's stupid to argue that.
But the thing I've found about Steam sales is, while it saves me money on individual games, I end up buying some games just because they're on sale and I think I'll play them at some point down the line (or just because they're so damn cheap). Then I end up not playing many of them. I try to convince myself I'll get to them eventually, but I know that's not true.
With consoles, because I'm spending more money on games, I make better decisions on which games I'm buying. I also try to get more playing time out of individual games (through replays, collectibles, etc). Which I like, and it means I don't need to buy as many new games. I also wait for games to drop to at least $30.
So in the long run, I'd say the cost for games are about equal for consoles and PC. This is just my experience of course.
Yeah, if you plan to play more than that. There's plenty of games to choose from and they'll all be cheap.
