Has to be the most overrated studio of all time. They are great at presentation. Graphics, tech, sound etc.
I’ve tried to get into their games since PS1. I always give them a chance and they usually disappoint me.
Crash Bandicoot: trash game. Let’s be real.
Jak and Daxter: technical achievement for PS2, but ultimately boring. I never finished the game.
Uncharted: there was nothing else to play at the start of PS3. Very mediocre gameplay, forgettable generic story. Horribe puzzles. Well, at least I finished this game.
UC2: Now this is their best game. A fun rollercoaster ride, just like the silliest action movies that we all like. Not much depth to it, but it was fun for what it was.
UC3: boring. I quit after a few hours. The shooting sections were not fun at all.
The Last of Us: I have started this stupid game THREE times because I so wanted to like it. I didn’t get far into it because it was so BORING. Maybe it gets better later? I dunno.
UC4: I thought it was ok. The second best after UC2. The story was forgettable. I think the shooting was a bit better than before. I finished the game but it felt a bit like a chore. A solid effort, but nowhere near my GOTY.
Now, for me to try Last of Us part 2 I should probably beat part 1 first. I don’t see it happening anytime soon. There’s something about these games that just irks me the wrong way. I always have to put in so much effort to play and enjoy them. That’s not how it should be. The games should be grabbing me!
