Gameplay that blows Assassin's Creed out of the water!
I was mostly looking forward to Assassin's Creed. You know "the game" that was finally going to make my PS3 purchase worth while. After playing Assassin's I still just don't get the high scores?? Great visuals but where's the combat? wheres the flow? Why do I have to keep doing mindless task over and over and for what?
For me it's all about game play. That's why I play games, for the game play. Visuals are also important but the game must have flow and substance and yes actually FUN game play. Where Assassin's falls short, Uncharted kicks it into high gear.
Not only did they make a game that is visually stunning but also one that's actually FUN and challenging. The story is told beautfully with a balanced mix of cutscene's to gameplay. I just never get tired to blasting through enemies. The puzzles/climbing are a nice break from the shooting action and make you have to stop and put the thinking cap on for a few moments.
This game should stand as an example what other game makers should strive to accomplish.
Thanks Naughty Dog for a truely remarkable showpeace!!!
