LOL so Uncharted 2 is a terrible game ? Amy is the uncharted series, 2 had the best multi (see J richmond).. 3 was a byproduct of quick turn around and scattered development (2 team nonsense)
yeah Mr. Uncharted expert. Obviously they were huge in uncharted 3 and they didn't want to change the formula but the new naughty Don Neil druckman wanted it dark and gritty but they didn't want none of that. Playstation as a whole is going though a revolution. Old with the old in with the new. Look at the whole ps4 landscape. There has been a shift of power and influence. And it's a thing of beauty. I bet they were against the last of us being created too.

The 2 team "nonsense" didn't seem to have an effect on TLOU though. Justin ruined UC2 MP after that 1.05 patch.
TLOU was in development for much longer then UC3, Link to where Justin was behind the MP 1.05 patch?

no one wants a dark and gritty uncharted that sounds awful. keep that shyt with the last of us. uncharted is suppose to be superficial. I doubt they were against uncharted, amy use to speak nothing but positive about neil and co. i doubt their was any animosity there.

It just hit me but...

:wow: @ the biggest Xbot Stan in the history of life (@PS4) favorite game of last generation being Uncharted 2.

:whoo:

nikka put in mad hours into that game. Was up on SOHH coordinating custom matches and all that shyt, breh LOVES him some Uncharted

:wow:

He didn't go harder on any Xbox exclusive last gen like he did with that game... Damn, that's amazing
What Xbox exclusive can ANYONE go hard for? Overrated ass gears of war? MORE HALO? :rudy:

Even they acknowledge the xbox brand is really not that great when it comes to exclusives. Always lagging behind Sony and Nintendo in that department

Important people leaving a studio during a game's development is never a good look.

It either means the game isn't looking good, or the suits are forcing the devs to do something they don't agree with.
That xbot fallacy :banderas:
There's ALWAYS game development, or it just means the studio is closed. Some left because their contracts were up, others left because they had better money offers on the table and some just got straight up fired.
Stig fukked up BIG TIME on that new IP he was developing, for that shyt to get canned like that It must've been some hot shyt :scusthov: you just don't throw 100 milli out the window like that.

Nikka did you play Uncharted 2? :childplease:
shyt is just FUN, dark and gritty, emotional and scary sometimes. shyt is a roller coaster of emotions, like a movie. Not superficial, like that 3rd piff. This is why we needed to :camby: that whole decision making team.

lol what? uncharted without amy is the equivalent to developing metal gear without kojima , ninja gaiden without Itagaki(which happened) etc. it's extremely hard to develop a game without your creative writer and director. Uncharted just lost Two MAJOR positions theirs no downplaying this.


100 million and hot shyt? i'm assuming this is from that neogaf rumor i don't take anything on their as a fact. only person that knows the truth is stig i doubt he post on there.

It was confirmed that that project was his. Money wise, we will never know.

Not necessarily. I mean God of War 2's director Cory Balrog left and didn't direct God of War 3 and that game still was amazing. :yeshrug:
