This panel, which comes from last week's PlayStation Experience show, has the Naughty Dog team talking about how they drafted the newest Nathan Drake model. In short, there was a lot of thought put into the new Nathan Drake.

I'm glad they're accounting for his age. It's not EXTREMELY drastic, but it's obvious.

One thing I love about exclusive is that they can devote all of their resources to maximizing potential on one platform, as opposed to settling for the lowest common denominator.
