People always say that there is no such thing a perfect score, but Uncharted 4 deserves nothing short of a full 10/10. The game is completely flawless. There are always going to be opinions that vary, but when it comes down to faulting Uncharted 4, there is nothing you can say. So much care and attention has been put into making this game absolutely perfect. It is very clear to see that not a single corner has been cut with the development of this game. The standard of quality is incredibly high and consistent from start to finish. I have never given a game a 10/10 before and I am generally quite the nit picker when it comes to game reviews, but i don't think i can pick out a single thing to fault about Uncharted 4. The game is just perfect.
Though I enjoyed the first 3 Nate games, A Thief's End is definitely a way to put an end to the legend of Nathan Drake. If I had to pick one Nathan Drake game this would be the game that I would tell others to play.
Uncharted 4 is a fantastic game, and is an absolute must play, especially if you’ve played previous games in the franchise. The pacing does go through a slow point heading into the third act but the overall story, the character performances and one of the most fulfilling closing chapters iv’e experienced in a game made this an experience I want to play through again multiple times.
Naughty Dog gives us here an incredible title that writes the last pages of a now cult saga. A true masterpiece.

Uncharted 4 delivers a memorable experience through excellent storytelling, character development, and refreshing gameplay. If you're apprehensive about the series ending, I still strongly encourage you to do so.
Uncharted 4: A Thief's End is the swan song this series deserved. From stunning visuals, to awe inspiring set pieces, to grounded moments of weakness.
Naughty Dog spoiled us with The Last of Us. As such, it was always going to be a difficult task for Uncharted 4 to meet those standards, let alone exceed them. The unfortunate thing is that whilst it has improved on certain aspects over the previous Uncharted entries - namely stealth, a little more freedom, and a real sense of discovery in hunting down a long lost treasure - there are a few too many slip-ups with regards to plot and characters, with lacking combat and set pieces also contributing to the pitfalls. It is undeniably gorgeous to look at, and the fun is definitely there on multiple occasions, but it is missing that Uncharted charm that made the series so great in the first place.
A highly polished, entertaining adventure - and a fitting end to the Uncharted series.
The story, gameplay, and presentation are all top notch and make Uncharted 4 a remarkable achievement in gaming.
All in all, this is a game that is remarkable for its maturity. All the eye candy is there — remarkable visuals, realistic scenes, eye-popping landscapes, and the trademark outrageous action. Individually, all these elements are no longer surprising in this age of high technology — in fact, everything here has already been seen in other media. But it is the way that they are brought together to form a cohesive whole that gets critics all nodding with pleasure.
Uncharted 4 is the best game on PS4 right now and the first game that you can claim is a system seller on either PS4 or Xbox One. It might not be the best game in the series but it is definitely one of the best games that you could play this year and it will probably one of the best on this console generation.
An explosive, if somewhat stretched, send off for gaming's most charismatic rogue.
Uncharted 4 is a roller coaster of a game, one with incredible action set-pieces, tactical gunplay, and emotional moments. It's a triumphant send-off for one of the most beloved series of the last ten years.
A great game held back by some tired tropes.
The Uncharted series has come a long way since its first release in 2007. Taking the developer's word for it, Uncharted 4 is the last game ever in the series developed by Naughty Dog and it's the best one we could have hoped for! The talented team at Naughty Dog have once again created a masterpiece, one that superbly concludes the adventures of Nathan Drake. We're going to miss his witty remarks.

If you're a fan of action adventures, you owe it to yourself to at least borrow a copy of Uncharted 4 and experience it first-hand. An epic journey like none other, fuelled by an atmosphere from action movies of olden times, cheesy at moments, but with more than enough charisma to stay with you long after you complete it.
Uncharted 4: A Thief's End is a fitting way to end a decade long story beloved by fans across the world.
No matter where Uncharted goes from here, this will go down in history as one of the finest achievements ever seen, not merely due to its obvious technical and creative merits, but because it can magically connect the player to this endlessly immersive world and its inhabitants. When you're done, Nathan Drake could feel more real to you than any fictional character you've encountered in games or movies. For me, that's what I'll miss most.
With amazing production values, characters I cared about, an entertaining story and plenty to see and do along the way, Uncharted 4: A Thief's End may not be the best game in the series overall, but it is a fitting conclusion that shows Naughty Dog continues to deliver the goods with their games.
