So... Top Gear is kind of an amazing show. I watched two episodes in a row and immediately jumped onto the PS3 to drive an R8 on the Test Track like in the show.
... then I got way bummed out because holy shit the Top Gear track looks like ass in GT5. Ugh. Anyways, on with the blog!
Nathan Drake and Elena Fisher
Is it weird that I had to stare blankly into space for several minutes before I could drum up even a semblance of an answer to today's topic? I might just be missing out on the vast majority of video games that cover relationships that aren't portrayed like total hogwash. It has to be that or maybe I'm just far too busy playing games that involve guns and faces and the use of the former against the latter. Whatever the case, it took me some time to think but at the end of it, I think I've come up with the perfect one.
The way they move the plot forward and the non-related-yet-ever-so-amusing banter between the two is what makes Elena and Drake such a fun couple to see on-screen. And it's not like I haven't played any other games where there are romance and relationships involved. I have-- plenty, even. It's just that none of them play as naturally portrayed as in Uncharted, and that is something I sincerely wish developers start taking notes if they're going to start doing more of it.
