Does anyone know if i order this from the PS store if it'll be available to play after download or is it still restricted to 10th May even after the theft and 'early release' by some vendors?

I can't imagine Sony will alter the release date for digital copies because some retailers have broken the date.

sure I read the pre-load is live, 50gb dl is gonna take some time even on FTTC.

Nevermind, I might just pick up a physical copy instead. Was just looking for something to do today.

Unsure about this, seems quite a few reviews are pretty scathing of the actual gameplay, which is where uncharted has always

I assume PSN price for this is ridiculous as PSN always is? Where's the cheapest for old fashion disc?

Yet the vast majority are positive and scores high on meta critic. We accept you are not a huge fan of the series. Cheers mate, see you later....

Assume they're all from the same reviewer? 'Pretty scathing' - lmfao.

The game is absolutely awesome.

Troll Hunters on the scene again!

first two are from the Guardian review, in which they scored it 5/5

mcwildcard · 8 May 2016 at 12:33

Having played 4+ hrs of this now, on that basis, this feels like the best one yet, and is exquisitely constructed. Any reviews that complain of anything more than minor gripes are suspect in the extreme.

You're all making me very excited.

Anyone noticed any differences between XB1 and PS4 versions yet?

yeah, realised a while later it was a PS4 exclusive. So dumb. It's surprising that I'm allowed out on my own.

The other two are from GameRevolution and BGR.. :rolleyes:

GR didn't give a score but BGR rated it 5/5, very scathing when you read them through Microsoft tinted glasses.

Really looking forward to Tuesday! never thought I would ever say that about a Tuesday.Trying hard to avoid footage of it.

Craig1981 · 8 May 2016 at 13:17

I have the day off on Tuesday, so I'll be playing it from the second it falls through the letter box

No chance, retailers would go ballistic.

It's funny how a couple of cherry-picked lines don't fully represent the overall tone of the review.

No, it will unlock at the release date.

- The Xbox version has a blank screen... Get the more "exclusive" PS4 version

Looking forward to this. Not a day 1 for me though, simply have too much to play so waiting for this to be £20 or so while I finish up other games.

Just ignore him. I have him on my blocked list as he's just a an Xbox fanboy and only comes into PS4 related threads to be negative.

Looking forward to this but really struggling my way through UC2 at the moment (Ch23). The gunplay is seriously dated, enemies are just massive bullet sponges and the guns feel pretty inaccurate.

The beta for this though has me thinking I'll actually enjoy the combat a lot more this time. Hope UC3 is a step up and not just dull endless waves

I also read there is a 5GB patch available...

There's now an auto aim system that snaps to enemies. Makes it a bit better.

The Xbox One version has a female as the lead character

Got my copy yesterday. Played a few hours. Excellent stuff as always.

I never did like auto aim even when I played on hard.

I personally thought Uncharted 3 was the best so far, since I don't have 4 yet.

There were so many jawbreaking build up moments in 3. Though instead of waves of baddies in 2 I remember more guys in body armour with shotguns coming for you in 3.
