It has some great, tight combat and some pretty interesting weapons to play around with.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Until Dawn<\/h3>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/3NcF7EOnjow?rel=0\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re a fan of classic horror stories, <em>Until Dawn<\/em> may be just the game for you.<\/p>\n<p>From a distance, it looks an awful lot like those cheesy horror movies we all grew up with, involving teenagers and spooky things happening in some cabin in the woods.<\/p>\n<p>However, <em>Until Dawn<\/em> messes with you just enough to provide an enjoyable experience. It also has some great characterisation going for it, if you\u2019re into that kind of thing.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection<\/h3>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/-mH2SVyBMAQ?rel=0\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Technically, these are PS3 games, but this whole package is only available on PS4, so it counts, okay.<\/p>\n<p>Comprising of <em>Drake\u2019s Fortune<\/em>, <em>Among Thieves<\/em> and <em>Drake\u2019s Deception<\/em>, the collection features the treasure hunting antics of Nathan Drake, as he spans the globe partaking in perilous white-knuckle adventures.<\/p>\n<p>The series offers more than just a good plot. It has incredibly intuitive award-winning gameplay in and among the backdrop of some gorgeously luscious jungles, deserts and ancient cities.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s the perfect package to indulge in before <em>Uncharted 4<\/em> hits in April.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Tearaway Unfolded<\/h3>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/91YiohAeLbw?rel=0\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><em>Tearaway<\/em> was a critical hit when it came out in 2013, but its release on the underselling PS Vita handheld meant that not a lot of people got to play or appreciate its brilliance.<\/p>\n<p>The console version gave the series a second-chance at reaching a mainstream audience.<\/p>\n<p><em>Tearaway Unfolded<\/em> takes the 3D platforming premise of the original, where the whole world is made entirely of paper, and folds it into the PS4s library.<\/p>\n<p>The game allows you to fold or interact with the many paper objects found throughout each level, offering up interesting variations on puzzles you once knew.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a cute and clever game that shouldn\u2019t be neglected when looking for a fun and different gaming experience.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h4><strong>Article\u00a0originally published on\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.menstuff.co.za\/\" target=\"_blank\">MenStuff.co.za<\/a>.<\/strong><\/h4>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\"><strong>In other news<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/news\/85497-r1000000-cash-prizes-for-new-telkom-dgl-masters.html\">R1,000,000 cash prizes for new Telkom DGL Masters<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/ps4\/85427-european-retailers-suggest-playstation-vr-will-cost-at-least-r8000.html\">European retailers suggest PlayStation VR will cost at least R8,000<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/features\/85433-video-game-vacation-spots-to-visit.html\">Video game vacation spots to visit<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We&#8217;ve been treated to some pretty fantastic games thus far, but which ones are the best of the bunch?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":196,"featured_media":85617,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_sma_x_autopost_enabled":true,"_sma_x_custom_text":"","_sma_x_autopost_status":"idle","_sma_x_autopost_error":"","_sma_x_post_id":"","_sma_x_attempts":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[20],"tags":[12583,9022,8964,6229,15557,485,17061,6233],"class_list":["post-85615","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-features","tag-bloodborne","tag-exclusives","tag-killzone-shadow-fall","tag-tearaway","tag-tearaway-unfolded","tag-uncharted","tag-uncharted-nathan-drake-collection","tag-until-dawn"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/85615","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/196"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=85615"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/85615\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":85619,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/85615\/revisions\/85619"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/85617"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=85615"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=85615"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=85615"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
