Video game graphics are quickly becoming astonishing simulacra of reality. We can roam unimaginable lands, interact with believable characters, and punch Nazis until they’re covered in lifelike injuries. And yet, video games still struggle to show someone taking off their clothes.

Uncharted 4 obviously features Nathan Drake getting pulled back into the adventuring lifestyle, but the opening is a smattering of domestic moments with his wife Elena that sell that game’s emotional beats. It’s even better in first person.

A tweet from a Naughty Dog animator helps explain how the heck Uncharted’s Nathan Drake can survive getting shot at so much. Pointing back to a little-known design factoid reminds players that Drake isn’t a massive bullet sponge—he’s just really lucky.

"My mistress’ eyes are nothing like the sun; coral is far more red than her lips red.
If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun; if hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head.
And yet, by heaven, I think my love as rare; as any she belied with false compare."

If you haven't picked up Horizon Zero Dawn yet, or have been holding out on Uncharted 4 for some reason, both those games - and a whole lot more - are at least half price on PSN right now.

I only bought the PS4 Pro because Sony told me to. Sure, I knew what 4K was, and I could spell HDR, but that was about it. My TV at the time was still merely “full” HD (a descriptor I’d since learn to be a vicious lie) and I always figured 30fps was about the best a console scrub could hope for.

So what exactly was the PS4 Pro for then? It wasn’t clear. It’s what was next. So I bought it.

Joe Carnahan, the writer currently attached to a film adaptation of Uncharted, just finished the most current draft of its screenplay according to a recent post he made on Instagram.

Keeping in step with the multiplayer roadmap released back in autumn, Uncharted 4's co-op multiplayer survival mode is coming in mid-December, pitting Nathan Drake and friends against 50 waves of enemies from merc fodder to flaming pirates.

Here's a quick look at how some of that came together (along with other animated moments from the game).

Video game addiction, mass murderers trained on Call of Duty, the video games warping your children’s brain.

Uncharted 4 was great, but you know what would be even better: an Uncharted 4 text adventure.

Thankfully, this is a thing that exists.

We've talked about Uncharted 4's single player a lot. It's time to discuss the game's multiplayer.

Depending what part of an Uncharted game you see him in, Nathan Drake is either a wisecracking dude clinging to a cliff face or a cold-blooded murder machine. Players have to do a fair amount of mental gymnastics to believe that this is the same guy in both instances. Uncharted 4 makes that cognitive exercise a little bit easier.

I've taken nice shots in Uncharted 4's photo mode, you've probably taken some too, but professional real world photographer Ray Soemarsono has us all beat with these incredible images.
