Better left buried
Here's one thing we've learned from several years running Push Square: the Uncharted movie will never come out. The flick has been mooted since the beginning of time, and has had dozens of high-profile names attached to it, but it never really seems to get anywhere.

News Uncharted 4's Focus Testing Didn't Always Go Smoothly
One individual had to be ejected
By and large, Uncharted 4: A Thief's End has prompted a pretty damn positive response – but not everyone is in love with the PlayStation 4 exclusive.

Weirdness Uncharted 4's Rolling Stones Will Blow Your Mind
Rock 'n' roll
The above GIF is doing the rounds, and it's pretty darn obvious why. It shows hunky hero Nathan Drake shooting some rocks in Uncharted 4: A Thief's End. They then proceed to slide down a cliff-face with unnerving authenticity. It really is something else, and perhaps justifies our
