I suppose its the obvious FC3?

Honestly, but either, or both. I haven't heard a bad thing said about either.

The start of this game is the best start to any game ever.

I thought that, proper bit of shock therapy right there!

Sound engineers deserve a medal. Some of the 'thuds' have a very real bass and impact to them. Reminds me of when I played HL2; after the opening section, you just sort of keep pausing to drink in the fantastic art and environment. Not far in to be honest. Playing with headphones and it's a proper intense concentration game so pacing myself

Ordered this yesterday with the free shipping option and just got it now! Fucking over the moon with that, especially after reading some of the posts in here and being pissed off with waiting. First time I've ordered with shopto as well.

I've never been brought to tears by a film or a game but the beginning of this had me welling up! For fuck sake!

Aye, the voice acting in this is fantastic so far, very very emotional.

Red_Isle_Chap · « **Reply #170 on:** June 13, 2013, 10:11:51 pm »

THis game is fucking brilliant. I can see why it's been getting the reviews it has. Stunning, tense, emotionally involving, superbly voice acted. It's the tits.

I'm really trying not to hype myself up for this, but I can't help it and reading these comments is killing me. Doesn't seem like it could disappoint.

Mates picking this up at 8am tomorrow and it's a long day in front of the couch, here's hoping for a rainy day!!

N-Red · « **Reply #172 on:** June 13, 2013, 11:28:42 pm »

I find it hard to justify spending £40 on games but might have to make an exception for this.

I wouldn't give people protips for this game. I think part of this games appeal is the figuring out of how deal with different situations in the most effective and efficient way possible.

Downloaded this last night and played this morning. Good start, only played the opening.

Walshy nMe® · « **Reply #178 on:** June 14, 2013, 09:21:43 am »

Please can I request if you are going to talk about ANYTHING to do with the storyline, it is in spoiler tags? With a little hint on what the spoiler is about?

ie "Storyline Spoiler below", or "Chapter 7 spoiler below"

Would hate for this game to be ruined.

I'm in the hotel bit that's all flooded after the lift shaft falls and separates Joel, trying to find my way back up.
It's a load of underwater diving. Now I'm lost. Any hints?

Will do from now on, but just to point out to everyone, it had nothing to do with the story, was just a gameplay moment that would only become relevant once the player got to that point

Loved all the Unchartered games (2 being the best for me); and after the recommendations in here i'm definately buying this, really excited about it!

In the Metro this morning, games reviews; 5/5 stars. First time i've ever seen them do that and i get that paper nigh on everyday.

Not sure if its classed as a spoiler, as it was a snippet review (half page), but the full one is here:

Thick question.

Is it worth getting this if you don't have internet connection? I spend most of my time at my girlfriends, who has internet, but I'm bollocksed if I'm moving my PS3 away from my sanctuary flat (without internet). Is it still the same game if I'm not connected to the internet?

This is a game that's bought by some, and the multiplayer is totally ignored by them (like me with Assassins creed). Thr main reason to buy this game is for the single player. I didn't even know there was a multiplayer until the reviews an I was still buying. So in short, if you've got no internet, buy it anyway

Been hit by it just now, lost three fucking hours. Fuming. Totally breaks the game now for a few days, be a chore playing through that again, crafting the same shit, upgrading the same shit, stealthing the same shit

See how long before 1.02 comes out.

this game reminds me a lot of resident evil but with Uncharted gameplay mechanics. Also a bit of resistance as well in terms of the tone and atmosphere. Absolute quality.

ThePeetmix · « **Reply #199 on:** June 14, 2013, 03:51:41 pm »

To sum up about the bug - For those of you starting a new game, when selecting a save-slot, press O to disable auto-save. If you're currently playing, keep checking your pause menu for when your last save point was. As soon as it gets stuck, on 'autosaving please wait...' reset your game.
