Looks like they did a good job with it overall. Too bad for no MP though. Skipping this one though, as I've already played all three.

Same. No MP, no money from me. I have them all on PS3, and will spend my available game money on Halo, Rise of TR and Fallout 4

@cainetao11: Good choice, my friend. I will also get Halo 5 and Tomb Raider. I'd love to get Fallout too I can't take all those freebies for myself. Plus I'm buying Guardians with my own cash.

Definitely picking this up. Having no MP is lazy, but I'm not bothered by it.

Seems like the controls have been improved which is great, thats what kept me away from the games previously. Will probably pick it up.

Definitely a worthy pick up as they are leaps and bounds over their PS3 counterparts. It's a no brainer. Based Bluepoint.

I might look into it once I get a PS4, the clunky controls were what ruined Uncharted for me back on the PS3 tbh(although admittedly I never tried the 3rd one.)

Looks nice but I was gonna buy this at first but I already all the PS3 versions so this isn't on my radar. Sure it has the Beta for Uncharted 4 but I don't wanna be spoiled what awaits for me in UC4 and the fact this cost $60 for a last-gen port is a rip-off, not to mention no MP. That said, this collection was meant to be for those who never own a PS3 and went PS4 this gen should pick this up. Uncharted 2: Among Thieves is arguably the best in it's series. I don't know about you, but Sony could at least put the Vita Uncharted in it as well form that price there asking.

Drake's Fortune did release back on PS3 November 2007 which is one year past when PS3 first arrive but now in 2015, Drake's Fortune is 8 years old so yeah, this is indeed a massive improvements. It does shows these game age well and the same for Gears of War: Ultimate Edition.

Doesn't look like they did a whole lot and I've got to say that these games while not even that old didn't age well at all. Sure the resolution and framerate can go a long way but beyond that the changes or actual work put into these games looks pretty minimal, mostly just unpacked textures and increased draw distance. I'll wait to get this one when it's second hand or very cheap, I'm just not seeing the point or value here, especially since the multiplayer was so lazily gutted.

This seems to be a recurring trend with Sony's remasters, the work done doesn't justify the price or even the existence.

I see the PS4 struggles with frames while even running an old engine. Still cows celebrate.

If this was a Xbox exclusive dipping to 55 FPS there would be 5 hate threads.

Loyal fans would have kept their PS3's and they're more likely to buy UC4 anyway. Also, loyal fans are the one's who provided feedback for the improvements in this remaster.

They redid the lighting, controls, textures and got it to run at 1080p/60fps. For 3 games. They even redid the prerendered stuff. They did way more than others do in terms of the game engines.

Yeah and I saw Drake's Fortune was a huge improvements since considering the game is almost 8 years old. Like you said, this collection is optional for those who want it or not but if you still own your PS3, you really don't need it unless you want to play UC4 beta that is. Granted, I already play these games and I'll just wait for UC4.

Well by your logic, then this collection must be looking very bad.

No multiplayer is a no buy for me and seems like nothing is improved beside the res and framerates that still dip, not much but still for small firefights andsome water on screen it should not be allowed.

People can buy the original 3 for a total price of 25 bucks WITH multiplayer. Oh well atleast it's better then GOW3 "HD" on the PS4.

the lack of MP is seriously inexcusable and would be a definite deal breaker for me if it wasnt for the fact that i completely missed UC2 and UC3 last gen.

For those of you who are bitching about the lack of no MP, the first Uncharted didn't have it and yet, it was a really good game in it's own right. Uncharted 2/3 to me was just a tack-on MP that I feel it didn't need it. I played both MP and I got bored with it in 2 weeks and really, not all games needs MP, this is one of them. That said, all 3 single player are really good, it didn't need MP from the gek-go in my opinion so don't let this collection get you down because MP isn't included but remember that there will be a Beta for Uncharted 4 so that's something worth it. That said, Uncharted games has alway have great single player and that's something to appreciate, not MP.

I loved Uncharted 2 multiplayer, and enjoyed 3 as well for a bit, but yeah there's no reason to include multiplayer for this collection which would probably have poor netcode like the MCC, and would take away from polishing the single player experience.

Online multiplayer games are destined to go offline people.

Oh but i haven't say it is a great looking collection hell i haven't even say a most have or even get it cheap.

Problem with that argument is that Uncharted was never really known for its multiplayer it was OK but nothing out of this world and certainly not Halo.

Yeah that is the same thing i say about MCC on xbox one and all were working on xbox 360 unlike MCC for several months.

Fantastic remaster, Bluepoint can do magic. If you're a newbie to the series or a massive fan it's a no-brainer. No wonder lemmings are upset here trying to deflect with their awful sequel to that generic reboot.

@makemefamous07 said:

looks like a lazy port just like God of war 3. Everything looks exactly the same as the PS3 versions just in 1080p which isnt a big deal cuz it still looks the same lol. 60fps thats ok i guess but sure as hell aint worth $60 lol. PS3 versions have the online MP that little coop thing that uncharted had along with playing as Elena/ Chloe with Free online & cheaper so this ps4 port is just copy & paste. This port should of been $29.99 cuz of how gimped version these uncharted games are on ps4.

I'll wait for Uncharted 4 cuz sonys remasters are just ports with very little work gone into it & it shows

You do know what a remaster is, right lems? Spoiler: it's isn't a lazy remake like Gears Ultimate.

Must own!! Only occasional frame-rate dips and when it does its never lower than 55FPS.

Well done BluePoint Games. All those who jumped ship from the 360 - PS4 are going to have a great time with this collection.
