Den store spilside VG247 besøgte Tokyo Game Show for lidt over to uger siden, for at, som alle andre spilmedier, et glimt af nogle af de kommende titler til de forskellige konsoller. De fik endda presset en smule Uncharted 4: A Thief's End ind i deres program, men det viste sig, at de faktisk havde spillet en forkert titel. VG247 spillede nemlig den opgraderede version af PlayStation 3-spillet Uncharted 2: Among Thieves fra samlingen Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection, og skrev derefter et negativt preview af Uncharted 4: A Thief's End, som de kaldte monotont og kedeligt. Nu har siden udsendt en officiel undskyldning, og trukket artiklen tilbage:
"On September 30 we published an article titled "Is Uncharted 4: A Thief's End too formulaic?" based on what we thought was a hands-on session with Uncharted 4 at the Tokyo Game Show. We didn't realise it at the time; what we'd played wasn't Uncharted 4, but the remastered Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, from the recently released Uncharted Collection. We were not aware of this until after the article went live.
As soon as Sony notified us of our mistake we immediately unpublished the article as it was clearly based on one massive error on our part. TGS is busy and obviously the majority of signage isn't in English, but none of that excuses the fact that we seriously fucked up."
Artiklen indeholdte endda billeder af Uncharted 4: A Thief's End, og beskrev godt nok nogle sektioner, som skribenten fandt meget.. genkendelige. Hvorfor mon.
