14 DAY TRIAL // Nolan North, the veteran voice actor responsible for video game heroes like Nathan Drake from the Uncharted series, has seen PlayStation 4 games in action and he was quite impressed with the prototypes that were shown to him by game developers.
Nolan North has worked on a huge amount of games in the last few years, but by far one of his most iconic roles was that of Nathan Drake, from the Uncharted series of titles that appeared on the PS3 and on the PS Vita.
While there have been rumors about an Uncharted 4 for the PlayStation 4, these haven't been confirmed by developer Naughty Dog.
North, however, has revealed to GamerHub, via PSLS, that he's seen prototype PlayStation 4 games and he was blown away by them.
"I’ve seen of the prototypes of the PS4 and I know that a lot of the developers I’m working with that use the PS4… it’s an amazing machine. I think it’s going to step up the game for any game. Whether it’s Uncharted, God of War, Call of Duty, all these games are going to benefit from just the technology that they’re putting out."
"When we think we’ve reached the pinnacle of what a game can look like, some genius somewhere makes it a little bit better and opens up the avenue for an opportunity to make the game more cinematic, more of an experience. I think the PS4 is going to be pretty amazing – it’s going to push those boundaries even further."
While he didn't reveal just what game he saw, he did emphasize that the visuals were amazing even during gameplay.
"I’ve seen some stuff… gameplay… that they’re testing for… I don’t remember what game it was but they were doing some testing on the PS4 and I couldn’t believe it was gameplay. I mean, it’s extraordinary technology."
Given North's multitude of roles, it's possible that the PS4 game he saw wasn't Uncharted 4, but it's still a possibility.
