Any recommendations for Christmas - Hogwarts, God of War or Uncharted?

I've just finished the main quest on Horizon Zero Dawn, so thinking of something new for Christmas. Three at the top of my list - Hogwarts Legacy or God of War or Uncharted:Legacy of Thieves. All seem to be about the same price.

Any recommendations?

Thanks, all. Seems we have a clear winner.

Have you played Cyberpunk? It’s a hell of a game now if you’ve either never played it or haven’t since close to release

Thanks. Again that was on the list as I don't have it - and now have the PC to run it. Was thinking I should wait to get the main game and expansion to play together.

Uncharted 4 yes.

I'd argue that 4 is better for people who were invested in the storyline already, but (sadly) we never got 1-3 on the PC.

However, if you go back to 1 it's very basic as it was a launch PS3 game. Nathan drake kills 100's of people in that game, it's insane.

So the point is, God of War (2018) is a reboot of sorts where you don't have to know about the previous games. Much better to play that than the 4th game in the series

I had my PS3 so did play and really enjoy the first three. Just great action, like we're in a film.

A big thanks to everybody. Just as I was again looking at the games to make the choice yesterday, my 20 year old daughter appeared next to me when I was on Hogwarts Legacy page - and told me she's been wanting to play that all year.

So I now have Hogwarts in my Steam library, I have to share it the three kids, but God of War is next on the list...and then Uncharted.
