Uncharted Golden Abyss
SCORE: 37
Family Friendly Gaming has never sounded off on Nathan Drake before. I got permission to purchase, and play Uncharted Golden Abyss on the Playstation Vita. So Nathan is a treasure hunter who wears dirty pants, has a dirty mouth, and has horrible taste in friends. He climbs these ruins like a Spider-monkey.
The level of violence in Uncharted Golden Abyss is above a ‘R’ rated movie. The blood flies as players murder thousands. All of these characters can be shot, thrown off ledges, have their necks broken, and other despicable deeds. Uncharted Golden Abyss includes some enticement to lust as well.
The language in Uncharted Golden Abyss is also in the same region as a ‘R’ rated movie. How did the ESRB put this down as a thirteen and older, instead of seventeen and older? The bad language flows freely, and repeatedly. It gets really bad in parts of this hand held game. The bad attitudes and innuendo drag Uncharted Golden Abyss further down. The music is epic, which is neat.
The touch screen controls feel tacked on in Uncharted Golden Abyss. We do charcoal rubbings, clean items, and rotate items. The main game play elements are climbing around, and murdering people. They get old very fast. Certain battles involve swiping on the touch screen in certain directions.
The thirty-four chapters in Uncharted Golden Abyss are a real chore to complete. Especially when this game is so repetitive and boring. The price tag of Uncharted Golden Abyss is pretty high too. This is not a game for families, and the rating is deceptively low. I feel like my money was wasted on Uncharted Golden Abyss.
There are games
that give me nightmares, and Uncharted Golden Abyss is one of those
games. Nathan Drake is not much of a hero in my encyclopedia. The
storyline is predictable, and extremely violent. The language made me
ill. The attitudes in Uncharted Golden Abyss spread a warped view that
influences minds.
