* The Big Winner of the Year *





We also get everything we want from a lavish big-budget game: astonishing visuals, imaginative locations and some truly thrilling set pieces - the Madagascan marketplace scene is a classic. Even if you don’t fall for the love story, you’ll fall for the well-paced, well-engineered action - and if the ending doesn’t get you right in the gut, you’re not human.

- The Guardian -









What makes Nathan Drake’s Indiana Jones-esque adventure the best game of the year, though, isn’t just the incredible graphics and spectacular gameplay; it’s the phenomenal story and script. Centring on two brothers, Uncharted 4 explores the high and lows of their relationship in a realistic way, unparalleled by other blockbusters.

- The Independent -









The entire journey is a lesson in greatness. An impeccable farewell to an iconic adventure series, Uncharted 4’s brilliant direction and unmitigated reflection will be remembered for years to come, and is bravely worthy of 2016’s game of the year.
