Finished Uncharted 4. Not sure how I'd rank it since I love them all so much. Graphically and control wise Uncharted 4 is the tops. Story, character and visceral wise it lacked behind the others but was still great. I liked how it ended.

This bodes well for a used purchase in a month or two.

I'm on Chapter 19. Won't be able to finish until next week. Taking it slow with this one.

This gif is crazy. These physics are the best I've ever seen.

I'm not a PC gamer, so take this with a grain is salt, but this is the best looking video game I've ever played. The art, the fluidity of movement, and the cutscenes are all sublime.

Yeah I couldn't help myself. Though when I looked at the stats I thought it would say 8 hours but I guess I put 15 hours into it. Sure didn't feel that long. I normally play the Uncharted games 3 or 4 times. Usually normal once, hard twice and crushing to say goodbye.

Same. I'm planning to go after the platinum. Going to really dive into multiplayer after I finish the story too. Have enjoyed what I've played of it so far.

We'll have to team up on multi player. I'm really bad though. Not false modesty I'm pretty terrible. Can't aim for sh*t.

Not new, but an interesting read about the canceled Six Days in Fallujah: http://www.gamespot.com/articles/six-da ... 0-6396567/

I'd still love to play it someday, but I don't think it'll ever happen.

I think I need to replay Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon. That game was such a blast.

I've never played it, but Far Cry 4 rocked my world. I can only imagine it'd be more fun with Michael Biehn and a lot of neon.

I've never finished any other Far Cry, but I finished the shit out of Blood Dragon. It's in its own league, IMO.

Pity about Primal; it just looks so one-note.

I like the originality of it. Very few games in that type of setting. Cool twist on the Far Cry template. Might pick it up later when it is on sale.

Was thinking the same thing: if it can be had for less than $20, I'll bite.
