Or The Best Game I've Never Played.
For the past 15 plus years The Sims has pretty much been the only game I've played. There was a few other titles on the PS2 but mostly Sims titles. I've been aware of other games so I haven't been totally chillin with The Goths all these years. It's only within the that few years (Thanks YouTube!) that I've really followed more game titles.
When GTA V was released a few years ago I got caught up in the hype. I watched videos, live streams, read articles. Even scoured Wikipedia for background. Never knew that there were so many titles in the series! Wow! Grand Theft Auto V because the first Best Game I've Never Played.
Okay, I'll admit that I mostly got my video game info from Watch Mojo videos. Great time killer, I highly recommend them. Anyway, one game that always shows up in their lists besides the Zelda games, is the Uncharted series. I mean how could anyone not love Nathan Drake? I know I couldn't!
I managed to catch a few livestreams of the earlier games and could not believe the details of them. Less of a video game than an interactive movie. Excellent stuff. Which brings me to the release of Uncharted 4: A Thief's End.
Holy shit!
This is one of the most beautiful games I've ever seen. The action holds up to any Hollywood movie. The story is just outstanding. And most importantly for me...a happy freaking ending. The amount of detail that went into everything is amazing. It really sets the bar pretty high for any video game in the future.
This is supposed to be the last installment in the series. It's a good one to end it.
Even with all this I still have a few nitpicky things.
Does Nate only pack one outfit per location? I get it when the action happens over the course of a day. But there were times where the action moved onto another day and there he was in the same shirt and pants.
How does that chunk of hair that always seems to not make it into Elena's bun not drive her crazy? I get that she's not a super girly girl but I know when I have a few hairs out of place I'm not satisfied until they are all someplace where they won't annoy me.
And lastly, don't think Nate and Elena should say anything about Cassie cleaning her room because they aren't exactly the neatest people. Let the girl go to Antarctica!
Now I think I need to get my hands on a PS4 so I can play these games for myself.
I've just realized that I've probably spent more time writing about a game that I haven't even played than I have about Sims 4. But that's a topic for another day. Hopefully sooner than a year from now.
Go 4th and Sim!
