You are bothered that an Uncharted game.... still plays like an Uncharted game? I don't know how to respond to this.

If Kevin Vanord is reviewing it, then I predict it will score between the 6-7 range.

It's not worth it. You're better off buying a used PS3 and using Gamefly, or Gamestop 7 day used game policy and get a full refund. Hell, these games will be worth next to nothing in the next few flash sales.

Unless you like being ripped off by greedy publishers, there's literally no reason to use this service.

Game looks incredible. Hopefully Ubisoft will release the full demo at some point they can quell all this hyperbolic downgrade nonsense.

This has been my theory from the beginning. The whole downgrade fiasco is just mainly do to the fact that we hadn't seen much daytime footage until recently. While there are some differences in the color scheme and lighting, the game looks pretty much the same E3 2013 demo during the sunset and night time sections.

By the way, there was some PS4 night time footage recorded at Pax. It's only 15 seconds though.

I won't be buying it. I'd rather play the old games again. Even if it does have hardcore options that won't stop them from filtering you through scripted action sequences that can't be skipped.

They've ripped out the one aspect that makes this series unique.

If anyone wants a genuine Thief experience you can buy the first game here on Steam

$7 - its a hell of a lot cheaper. The trilogy collection is also a good option under $20.

And which aspect would that be?

Pure sneaking. Almost all developers today insist on having stealth-action, a hybrid of sneaking and fighting.

Thief is one of the only games to let you avoid the action entirely. You're just a thief, not a fighting machine. Its so rewarding to the tension of the game play and making you feel vulnerable.

Have you played the old games?

Take the nostalgia goggles off. You could be a "killing machine" in the previous games. There were several weapons you could purchase that supported lethal play styles. Hell, you could take out multiple guards in Deadly Shadows with gas arrows and bombs. Yes, direct hand to hand combat with multiple enemies was very challenging and wasn't particularly satisfying, but that still seems to be the case with this reboot, based on what I've heard from people who've played it. Perhaps you should play the old games again, before bitching about something that's always been part of the series.

Every time I type a comment on an article it gets deleted when I refresh the page. I have not done anything to violate the terms of service. I even tried commenting with a different account and it still doesn't work.

I'm not sure what the problem is, but everytime I try to comment on an article, my post gets deleted as soon as I refresh the page. I even tried commenting with a different account, and it still didn't work. Is there any way to fix this?

@SirSlimyScrotum:

Turning what off? I 've tried refreshing the page several times and making sure all of my settings allowed me to comment on articles.
