 One of the best, if not the best PS3 game to date. October 2, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I was a little hesitant about buying this game at first, especially since this game has been out almost a year and it was still around the $60 price range. I was hopping that it would soon become a greatest hit but there was no mention of it doing so. So when Amazon had their gold box deal with this game at $30 I knew that I had to get it.
Luckily I was able to get it at the $30 price and as soon as it arrived I popped it in the PS3 and that is where the game stayed until I beat the entire game on all levels of difficulty including the crushing difficulty.
The graphics are some of the best I have ever seen in a game on any system. Beautiful environments stretch throughout the game. Also the first time that I put nate under the waterfall and he actually had wet clothes that dried off after a while was quite a neat little bonus in the graphics department. The only downfall in the graphics department were the explosions which were not bad but they could have been slightly improved to enhance the effect.
The game play is pretty smooth and the story line is seamless and quite interesting. Every cut scene left you wanting to know more. The game play is pretty much a cross between an Indiana Jones style movie and your favorite shooter. The treasure hunting aspect of the game will also keep you on your toes looking for them throughout the game.
The AI of the enemies range in the difficulties. On easy, it really is easy. Normal and hard settings are about were most would enjoy playing the game. Crushing is just what it means. This level is not for the faint at heart but once you have mastered the other difficulties you can get through this with a little patience. The enemies now like to rush at you and their shots are more accurate and more lethal.
Added features now include the addition of trophies which makes the replay value well worth it. Most of the trophies are not that difficult to get but to get the platinum trophy, you will need to finish the game on crushing and also have all the other trophies collected.
Even though I have finished the game at 100%, I still find myself putting the game back in and playing it from time to time. If I would have known that the game was this good, I would not have hesitated to pay the $60 to get it in the first place.
I give this game my highest rating because it deserves it. I have been playing video games since the mid 1970's and this is by far one of the best experiences I have had with a video game.
I cannot wait until Uncharted 2 gets announced and hopefully it will be just as good or even better.

Stunning Graphics, Great Story, and Good Gameplay September 22, 2008

Hands down, this is by far the best story driven game I've played in the past 5 years. To date, this is the only must have exclusive PS3 title.
 Limited control options September 19, 2008

I was really excited for this game, but was disappointed to discover that there is no option for auto aim. You are only able to aim your gun manually, which I am really no good at. It's a personal preference, but I felt that auto aim should at least be an option. I figured I would foreworn others like me who suck at manual aimimg.
 Great Fun For The PS3 September 18, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I throughly enjoyed this game. The graphics are stunning and the game play is spot on. I had heard that some people thought it was too short (about 10 hours play time), but I thought it was just right. I dont like getting caught up in games for 40 or 60 hours. I jump around from WoW to the Wii to my PS3 so I dont want to feel like I am trapped playing a game that goes on and on.
The game play was rather original to me. I liked how intuitive it played. The hint feature was really useful. I got lost sometimes, but I never felt the urge to give up or go seek help on a gaming site. In parts it fondly reminded me of the Dragon's Lair or Cliffhanger style arcade games of the past.
There are a good assortment of weapons and real good story arch to follow. The cinematics (and game play) are like watching (and playing a part in) a movie. I would definitely recommend this game to anyone that has a PS3 and some time to be entertained.
