Every gamer has their secret wishes. Maybe you want a certain game to get a sequel, or a character to be introduced in the next game, or maybe you want a reboot of a classic. I am not alone in this. What I really want, is an Uncharted and Tomb Raider crossover. While I’d love a game, I’d be just as happy with a comic or even a book.
Uncharted is one of my favorite game series of all time, and when the Tomb Raider reboot was released earlier this year and was being described by some as having a bit of Uncharted to it, I had to get my hands on it. I did, and I loved it. And that’s when I immediately wanted a crossover.
I could never really see the pre-reboot Lara Croft and Nathan Drake meshing well, but with this new Lara I can definitely see it. Sure, Tomb Raider has a slight more paranormal or supernatural aspect to it, but it’s not like Drake couldn’t be confronted with something like that. I also think the age-difference would be an interesting dynamic – perhaps Drake sees a bit of himself in Lara? I have so many ideas.
Visst, jag vet dess önsketänkande. Jag förstår svårigheterna i verkligheten, särskilt eftersom de publiceras av separata utvecklare och Gravplundrare är ett tvärkonsolspel där Outforskad är exklusivt PlayStation. Fortfarande, en komiker skulle vara lättare att göra, eller hur? Och jag vet att jag inte är ensam i min önskan.
Men som jag sa förstår jag verkligheten och tycker om att jag är en ganska realistisk person. Jag får aldrig min crossover, men jag kan åtminstone se fram emot a Gravplundrare uppföljare - som var allt-men-bekräftat med slips-in comic-serien meddelandet - och jag hoppas fortfarande att Naughty Dog ger oss Uncharted 4 när PlayStation 4 släpps.
Vad tror du? Vill du ha en crossover mellan Nathan Drake och Lara Croft?
