Video Game Review: Uncharted 4


Ok so i just beat that Uncharted 4 for PS4...it was lit...amazing, spectacular. It's time for a review!

If you haven't played an Uncharted game then this is the one you could start with. It's' kind of like Indiana Jones and Tomb Raider. You discover ancient artifacts, shoot guns, engage in fist fights, and climb terrain...alot.

Uncharted 4 is the best Uncharted for a few reasons. While all Uncharted games have great graphics and dialogue, its top notch here. And the Action sequences are incredible. The game involves you looking for the pirate Henry Avery's treasure to save main Protagonist's Nathan Drake's brother, Sam Drake. There's a plot twist halfway through the game that I wont spoil.

The game has a lock on mechanic so combat is smooth as ever...but hit detection isnt always great. The enemies are smart too. They flank you and throw grenades sometimes when you have cover. Having played all the Uncharted games and beaten them except the PS Vita version, i must say a weakness of the game is it's puzzles. Some are tough sure, but most arent; Like in U3 and U2.



The addition of a grappling hook makes things alot cooler as you make death defying jumps with ease. Of course with every game in the series you make these crazy jumps and grab on to cliffs with incredibl ease usually. The game does keep you on your toes with making cliffs collapse sometimes. I died more from exploration than combat...which is normal in an Uncharted game.

This game feels like the end of a long show you have been watching. Its absolutely terrific. There is some misleading information in the flashback chapters but we'll just take it and disregard U3's flashback chapter. Ultimately the game is a classic albeit not perfect. Some of the wide open driving sequences i found annoying. The game feels less linear but the exploration slowed the pace down too much at certain points.....PLAY this game if you have a PS4....you will enjoy it!

Verdict: 9.85/10

Album Review: Kid Cudi-Insano (regular version)

 I gotta admit I didn't like this album that much when I first heard it over half a year ago. I've heard that Kid Cudi doesn't exactly play to his strengths....that's partly true. I do like his rapping here tho. Honestly most songs here kinda blend together....."Keep Bouncin'" is really hype....and it gets the album off to a good start. "At The Party" with Pharrell Williams and Travis Scott may be my favorite song. "Wow" with A$AP Rocky is another highlight. Overall tho I feel this album tries too hard to be trendy. Cudi needed to put more of his pain into it. I mean a happy Cudi album isn't a bad thing but it really seems odd to me. You're not getting alot of singing or hums here know what I mean? However the production I found to be very good. Cudi is one of my favorite rappers like top 20 and I guess this will do for 2024. Lyrics 20 Beats 23 Depth 21 Tilt 21 Verdict 85

Album Review: Kanye West & Ty Dolla $ign-Vultures 1

 This album review is way overdue. I've had a long time to sit with the album....I really liked it at first but it hasn't really aged as well as other Kanye projects. Kanye's lyricism has taken a noticeable decline. I mean hes not horrible but alot of these bars are bad or tasteless. Ty Dolla $ign on the other hand does a great job on pretty much every track. The production though, as with most Kanye albums is really good.   Some of it was reminiscent of My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy or Yeezus. There are a few guest spots and most are well used. Hearing Kanye's daughter, North West, on "Talking"is cute. Freddie Gibbs steals the show on the hilarious "Back to Me". "Carnival" is a certified hit which features Playboi Carti & Rich the Kid. Overall most of these songs are good but I cant say this really adds much to Kanye's illustrious discography. Lyrics 19 Beats 23 Depth 22 Tilt 21 Verdict 85

Video Game Review: Jedi Survivor

 About a week ago or so I beat Star Wars Jedi Survivor. Im so happy I got a chance to play it cause they put it on PS4....yes I sadly as of early 2025 do not have a PS5 yet. But anyways I thought the game was considerable improvement over Jedi Fallen Order in most ways.  The game is set a few years after the end of the first game. One thing I like is you keep all your Jedi techniques from the first game Jedi Fallen Order. You can force push and pull and double jump right from the jump. Early in the game you also get access to a new lighstaber form dual wield. In this game there are 5 lightsaber forms. Single is good in any situation but not the best for ideal situations. I think double bladed has good defense but low range. Dual wield is fast but has low defense. Later on you get access to a blaster form which has great range. Then there's the Cross-guard which is Kylo Ren's lightsaber form...its slow in this game but has high damage and defense to it. The enemy variety in the...
