Its rewards don’t come easily, but they are tremendous.

Horizon enters rarefied air by telling an amazing story and building a compelling world atop excellent, challenging gameplay. PlayStation Universe review score: 9.5/10īeneath the beautiful surface is something greater: a triumphant beginning.
It’s fulfilling to the highest order, exhaustive in its treatment of characters we won’t see again, and an unrequited love letter from Naughty Dog to the fans that have followed Nathan Drake this far. For Drake and his friends, it offers everything I hoped for and even more than I dreamt for.
But I can say, in no uncertain terms, that Uncharted 4 is an ending worthy of a PlayStation icon. How the saga is remembered will be known with time. Is Uncharted 4 a worthy conclusion to Drake’s tale? Does the ending, to stories and characters we’ve grown to love, satisfy? When all’s said and done, what is the legacy of Uncharted 4, and of the series as a whole? Persona 5 is something to sink your entire self into, and end up feeling utterly despondent about when you finally have to leave its stylish embrace. The real star of the show, however, is the world this RPG inhabits, and the people in it that you come to adore. Persona 5 may not pull up many trees in terms of innovation, but it refines and refreshes the things that make a great RPG work.
