Review embargo lifted 8.01am UK tomorrow
One or two have already started appearing on YouTube but I'll give them a miss.

Zero interest in reviews, I already know it's a must have game.

Absolutely. Who in the world needs a review for the fourth Uncharted game.

Best graphics I've seen in a game so far. This is a digital download well worthy of £50!

No digital download is worth £50 when you can get a psychical copy for £35.

Digital prices will never get cheaper if your prepared to be ripped off like that.

Well it's up to individuals how they spend their money but personally I'll always buy on disc when there's a choice. I'm saving £13 on UC4 by buying it on disc, over the course of a year's worth of games I save a fortune by avoiding digital copies on new releases and sometimes trading in, which you obviously can't do with digital downloads either.

I don't buy many games so paying for the download isn't so much an issue. The game is ready to play for midnight, it's quick and convenient.

But yeah its not ideal for everyone.

The reviews are making the wait for Tuesday simply intolerable. Many are saying that Naughty Dog have topped UC2, and possibly even The Last of Us with this.

Cannot wait to get my hands on it.

Yep I'm the exact same way, I can not wait. Plus I'm submitting a big project for my MA on that day. I plan to celebrate with Uncharted.

This quote from the Metro-Gamecentral review has left me champing at the bit.

" It's easily the best Uncharted, it's the best marriage of cinematic and video
game action since Resident Evil 4 and it has graphics so good that the most
common reason for dying is because you were just standing there gawping at
the scenery!"


Another 10/10 review I read called the graphics impossible and joked that it's like someone crept into the house and sneakily swapped his standard PS4 with one of those new fangled PS4 Neo's, it looks that good!

Yep, generally very similar here. My last full price digital was The Witcher 3, and I'm still more than pottering within it's charming locales a year later. Having said that, Uncharted 4, despite it's evident panache and swagger, ain't a keeper. So I'll grab it on disc at some point.

Very much liking the reviews, apparently more exploration on offer..

"Naughty Dog has taken a different approach to this finale. Although there is plenty explosive, over-the-top mayhem, Uncharted 4 has longer stretches of downtime in which players are left to explore and absorb their surroundings." - TSA

Review scores are all well and good but Uncharted 4 doesn't need a reviewer telling us its good, the last 3 games have being superb, the first outting on the ps4 was always going to be a show stopper.

Roll on Tuesday.

Ah, I'm playing Dragon Age inquisition at the moment and don't want to tear myself away to play Uncharted 4 for fear of breaking immersion!

Re: digital vs hard copy. Prefer download personally but my ps4 needs the space so have to buy hard copy these days. Hard copies make me very nervous ever my Fifa 11 disc stopped working for no reason.

But if you buy the disc version then it still installs the exact same amount of data on your hard drive. So that reason doesn't really work this gen.

I don't understand how people have been moaning about the price of games since the dark ages and there is a choice (and up to £15 cheaper) but people will still download it and pay £50 plus.

Anyway sorry, it's up to them and back to the game at hand.

The Game Collection usually deliver Tuesday release on a Saturday so I'm keeping my fingers crossed for that to happen.

Arkham Knight arrived on the Saturday for me. Was a very pleasant surprise! So yeah, I ordered UC4 last night in the off chance that I get it early (I'm off work until Tuesday). If it arrives on the day of release then I'll have to wait for the weekend to play it. Don't let me down game collection! I'll be very disappointed if I don't have it by Monday at the latest.

As long as they havent been told by Sony not to send until Monday then I reckon we stand a good chance of it coming tomorrow.

Put my pre-order in yesterday with Amazon, shame the game releases on a Tuesday rather than on a Friday.

They aren't getting their stock in until today, so getting it tomorrow might be tight. Hopeful for Monday.

Does the status change to despatched for those Saturday arrivals?

Bad news I'm afraid. I've been in touch with ShopTo, where I'm getting mine from, about when they're sending copies out and they replied that Sony have indeed put a shipping embargo on the game. Online retailers can't start dispatching until Monday at the earliest.

No it doesn't.

And also the difference is i can simply redownload if there's any problems. With a disc you'd need to buy another one.
