how does it compare to Naughty dogs Uncharted trilogy?

They are equivalent imo; Uncharted has a slightly better gaming experience over Tomb Raider (more events, rich scenes, better progression, easier to reload content, go back at any point, etc.). Tomb Raider is a better story, easier to bond with the character and raiding tombs is a plus. I would choose Uncharted over TR.

Tomb Raider is as good if not better than Uncharted. There is less shooting but more puzzle solving and treasure hunting. I prefer a variety of challenges in an RPG game

The control, gameplay, artwork, and graphics are way better in Uncharted, but still not quick and deadly enough. I don't like anything about Tomb Raider. The best games for the PS3 are Crysis 2 and Red Dead Redemption.

They are very similar. The differences is in the gameplay. TombRaider has slightly better graphics, more intuitive gameplay, and you get to explore your environment more. In Uncharted you are kind of told where to go but in TombRaider you have more freedom similar to Metal Gear Solid Snakeater. Uncharted is great but TombRaider I believe is superior.

I think the graphics in some ways are better. I enjoyed them both but I liked the tomb raider storyline a little more. But then I've always liked tomb raider.

Sorry Eric I really can't answer that question cause the only uncharted I've played was the one on vita but I still do think this game is great if you play the last of us from naughty dog then you will also like this game

No, there's really no story to the Skate series, just better gameplay and graphics. I'd say it would be great for you to skip the first two games and decide on Skate 3 instead. It's a great game, and definitely better than the other games!

Pretty much. Both series were made by Bioware so there are a lot of similarities. The one major difference is that you play as the same character through all three games instead of creating a new one and all three games is one continuing story.

Yes, I don't have the DS version, but I've seen previews of it. The Wii U version is much more HD, open, roamable world, and more challenging. I recommend it.

The previous Persona games are not associated with this one as far as story and characters. Just standard gameplay mechanics and some systems are the same. Just like if your familiar with Final Fantasy games, they are all individual as far as story and plot

I'm not sure as I've never opened or played it. Though I do believe that if it does require any kind of patch or update it will let you know right after you boot the game up. I hope that answers the question as I'm just not sure how the trilogy differs from the stand alone versions.

Well there was a heavy focus on the graphics but if you were a fan of the story it's good enough to buy. The story feels a bit forced in a few sections but very few. The ending ties up all loose ends. The multiplayer is where the game is absolutely incredible. For a more in-depth review go to youtube and search "zero punctuation killzone shadow fall".

Watch Dogs...I have Second Son and Watch Dogs. Second Son was my favorite till I played Watch Dogs. Both are great games but Watch Dogs is better in my opinion.

It is only a 3rd person POV game. Don't let that detract you from getting it if that is a deal breaker for you. It is truly a fantastic experience and one of the best looking games on Next Gen so far.

I'd say yes, especially if you are a fan of the series. It's pretty much on par with Gears 3 as far as graphics game play etc. I too only purchased it for the campaign mode. One thing judgement has is; you'll come to a variety of different types of side/bonus missions that are optional during the campaign. You'll know when you come to them, because there will be a red gears emblem on the wall, and they aren't hard to find. Walk up to it and you can either accept or deny if you want to play it. It's kinda like horde mode on online. You and the crew have to face usually two waves of various types of enemies. So it's kind of like a run and gun type of affair. You'll earn stars, badges, etc for completing/doing various things when playing them. So that adds to the campaign as well. I am very pleased with my purchase. I've only completed the first few chapters; because I bought 7 other games at the time. So I have a lot of love to spread around, lol. Another recommendation that I have for you is Tomb Raider if you haven't played it already. That's where most of my gaming time is spent. It's a very good game, and I highly recommend it. I'm playing it on the ps3 however. I would definitely recommend Gears judgment as well since you are a fan of the series. I noticed the other answers were short, so I tried to provide additional information to help you out with your decision. Hope this helps with determining whether you purchase it or not. You won't be disappointed though...

My copy came with the dlc. I would go with the single games and not the trilogy.

It looks great on Wii U but I'm sure it looks a little better on PS4 so if you have both systems I would suggest PS4.

Tomb Raider is probably the best game of the 3 but if you want something that was developed only for new gen then Second Son is the way to go. The graphics are stunning in this game and it has a lot of replay value with the good vs evil choice system.

With assassins creed 3 it is not repetitious. You play in many locations and as many different characters and the english culture, native american culture and historical story you get to play through is really neat. Assassins Creed Black flag is entertaining as well. There is plenty of sea and land warfare. Pretty cool but I will say some of the sea navigation can take time as well as collecting all the animus fragments far and wide.

Yes. The biggest difference is detail and the platinum has several maps in 3D.

It is not necessary to have played the first two games before playing this one, but you will know Olimar's back story better if you have. His back story is not needed to understand what's going on in Pikmin 3 though, so you will be fine playing this game without having played the first two games first. You may want to eventually play Pikmin 1 and 2 though, as they were good games (especially Pikmin 2).

If you are familiar with the series then you will have a pretty good idea. Combat mechanics have not changed much. Its a little more fluent. Better weapon selections. As well as armors. Naval combat and exploration is a much improvement over its previous release of AC3. All in all a great buy. If your interested in trophies/achievements there is a lil more of a challenge. I was able to get the platinum trophies on all previous games fairly easy on one play threw. This one took me atleast 2 to obtain all including the platinum.
