UC2 is definitely better than TR. Bottom line is that UC2 is way more fun & memorable of a game. It's a an addictive game that you want to experience repeatedly. Who really wanted to go back to that well executed yet dull TR game again? If you spend $60 on it you got fukked. UC2 with the Multiplayer was countless hours of piff.
Uncharted 2 was the best of the series but it wasn't on the level of definitive edition which is understandable because it is older but the game is wayy to overrated especially in this day and age. I played Tomb Raider twice I don't see the problem I had never gotten 100 percent unlocked on all skills. There is no incentive in playing Uncharted again.
