  • Uncharted 3 reviews coming in.

  • Because playing them is not enough, we have to bitch about them daily, too. We had a Gameplay forum, but it got replaced by GameFAQs.

An Uncharted game getting incredibly positive reviews? No way!

Likely based only on videos the reviewers watch :-)

Walk into a room. Enemies swarm from the other end, begin unimaginative gunplay. Fight your way to the other end.

Enemies spawn on the side of the room that you just came from. Fight your way back. They spawn on the first side of the room again.

Cutscene.

The End.

(I love Uncharted's story, btw.)

It's Naughty Dog, man. You're buying a hamburger not a prime rib steak

Except when they were making Crash and Jak, it was ALL prim rib steak. :(

No, no, young one. That's called "salisbury steak" :-)

Are we talking about platform\adventure games being compared to Chrono Trigger or something? Because if we're only talking about platform\adventure games, Naughty Dog had that shit on lockdown. :P

Maybe the graphics and storyline part, but the gameplay leaves a lot to be desired....

I meant Crash and Jak. :)

As far as adventure-platformers go, Crash and Jak are the cream of the crop for gameplay, IMO.

The only Sony action-platformers I didn't dislike were the Ratchet and Clank games, they're aight. The others I really disliked, particularly Crash

Finished. Incredible set pieces (Yemen city chase, cruise ship, cargo plane), great voice work and animation, fun stuff. Lot of deja vu if you've played Uncharted 2, especially the last 1/4 of the game.

BLOW YER MIND BRAH!
