I'm in love with all the uncharted series and this one tops them all. The graphics just give the game a whole other level. I still haven't finished the game fully but I'm loving it a lot so far. I'm a little late reviewing this but we finally bought a PS4 I've been dying to play it since it released! The thing I love the most about uncharted is that there's a story to it. It's not just a bunch of shooting like most of the other video games. Something I like about uncharted 4 is that there are several new modes to play in that weren't available in the previous ones, like the survival mode.

I got this game through a PS4 bundle and tried it with no prior knowledge of the series or its characters, and I was absolutely not disappointed.

You do not need to have played the prior Uncharted titles to enjoy this one, as it does a great job of introducing the characters (and even getting the player to grow attached to them!) and the overall story for the first-timers.

Its graphics are beyond beautiful, and the game is very fun with controls that are great for both beginners and gaming veterans.

The game constantly keeps you wanting to know more about its story, and so it has you gliding through its different chapters to know what happens next.

I've thoroughly enjoyed it on the first run, and I'll enjoy it some more in the future! I highly recommend it to anyone who loves adventure games and owns a PS4.

Uncharted 4: A Thief's End is the fourth title in the action/adventure video game series. It was released in 2016 for the PlayStation 4.

The story follows Nathan Drake, who has finally taken a break from his life of adventure to settle down with his wife, Elena. When his long-lost older brother, Sam, comes knocking on his door in need of immediate help, Nathan's idea of a normal life disappears, but at what cost?

The gameplay is essentially the same as the previous titles in the series. You play as Nathan, with a number of weapons at your disposal in order to take down your enemies. Unlike previous entries, you have the option to use stealth when approaching enemies, hiding in grass and silently taking your adversaries out. In some areas, you can even choose not to engage them in battle at all. Additionally, as environments are large, you now have the option of using a climbing rope to get around some areas, and a car in some others. As always, there are some puzzles to solve along the way.

Because this is the first game in the series to be released on the PS4, both the graphics and gameplay have made marked improvements. Everything runs incredibly smoothly, with the cinematics and gameplay sections transitioning seamlessly with no delay or slowdown. The amount of detail in the environments is truly stunning;I often found myself pausing and just rotating the camera around to look at it all!

The story is where this game truly shines. The writers and directors of this game are the same ones behind The Last of Us, and I feel it really shows. While past Uncharted games have been very fun but somewhat unrealistic, I feel like this one has become more mature and grounded. The villain isn't some moustache-twirling bad guy, but rather he's just legitimately a huge a-hole whom you would realistically come across in real life. If anything, he's the most hateable of all the villains in the series because the traits he possesses seem so familiar.

The additional backstory given to Nathan is very strong, and helps you understand more about who he is and why he lives the way that he does. The bond between he and his brother seems incredibly real, which is very effective since Sam Drake is your companion for the majority of the game. You come to care about him as much as Nate does, so if anything happens to him, it would matter.

I have nothing bad to say about this game. It's the best in the entire series and my favourite. I would recommend it to any gamer or to any fan of genuinely good stories.
