After a number of delays the PS4 moneymaker Uncharted 4 is in the hands of reviewers. I can’t be certain, but I think this is the first “big” exclusive for the console; at least from a first-party perspective. We had a chance to see Uncharted 4 in action during E3 and really enjoyed what we saw. Let’s see what the internet is saying about it.
