EGM: So, how much did Gears of War influence Uncharted's development?

Evan Wells: Certainly we all played Gears of War and liked it. It set a bar visually that we knew we wanted to compete with.... As far as gameplay, I think I've heard them cite the same game that put us on this path: kill.switch. Gears of War obviously took that to another level, and again, that level of polish helped push us.

Some devs are petty fuckers.

Cliffy B cites kill.switch a huge inspiration for Gears in almost any production interview.

yup

not only Kill Switch, also RE4, both are huge inspiration for GOW.

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #10 on:** January 12, 2008, 08:56:28 PM »

Yeah, I have the CE strategy guide and CliffyB cums all over kill.switch and Resident Evil 4 when talking about production.

MCD · « **Reply #11 on:** January 12, 2008, 08:59:39 PM »

and he is cumming all over RE5 now, can't blame him, shit looks awesome.

HyperZoneWasAwesome · « **Reply #12 on:** January 12, 2008, 09:11:52 PM »

I just want to take this opportunity to praise Kill.Switch, because its pretty fucking awesome. It plays great, has a near constant 60 FPS, has a near perfect difficulty curve, and rocks pretty much in every way possible. Were it not over after 7 hours (no extras either) it could have been a AAA game.

I could've sworn I read somewhere in a different interview where they infact did site Gears of War as a game that they looked to when designing Uncharted. I can't place where exactly I read that but I do remember seeing it.

But IMO Uncharted's fluid cover system works and feels alot better than Gears' stickyness. So whatever.

Edit...fuck I hate those Uncharted avatars. The craziest of the crazy seem to have 'em anymore.

Well don't nobody take a shot at me in Resistance 2. Any fool I see out there I'll killz him, any sumbitch who takes a shot at me, not only gonna killz him, I'm gonna killz his clan, and burn his damn base down.

Gears is stale as hell on SP, ESPECIALLY the second time through. I played a lot of Uncharted over the weekend and it's quite glorious
