Yeah I completed them both back to back as I was not interested in it at first but then everyone said number 2 was so good so I borrowed them both and went through both of the campaigns. Only thing I missed was multiplayer on Uncharted 2 as I never gave that a go.I think part of what makes Uncharted so good for me is not the story itself, yea it is a bit of the same old, but more how everything is animated so it actually seems like real body language in the cut scenes rather than the same animations over again trough the whole game (like for example in Mass Effect). Makes the story a lot more believable and more like a film like someone already mentioned. And the fact that they made it funny rather than dead serious makes a change
Just curious, did you play the first game Insanties? You see more about Drake and the reporter in the first game and why they do all these quick jokes about each other.
The characters strook me more as stereotypical hollywood rather than indie, after all he seems more like a han solo, die hard or Indiana jones style character that has been done a lot and a long time ago. Well I don't see why you would complain about roids driven space marine bro's but then not about other stereotypes equally done to death. Doesn't that seem biased in a way to put one side down so much and then respect another set of stereotypes?tmsmalls74 said:
That is the problem I have with uncharted, it does things by the numbers like other games yet somehow has people convinced its original and perfectly done. I don't feel like I'm talking to rational people when they praise it as one point you show a fair comment saying many games have these problems (fair enough but uncharted still displayed all of them to a bigger degree) yet say its a great game but others that follow similar stereotypes are bad? There's some weird bias or prejudgement going on here or just a massive preference for certain archetypes blocking any rational judgement on whether the game achieves new ground or delivers in better ways etc.
You say its the best TPS for example but I found MGS 4 to have far better gameplay, less linearity, less stereotypical characters, better story, more precise aiming, better and more varied weapons, better done stealth and was just generally better all round. So that's an example of a far better game that does everything better in my opinion on the PS3.

, I actually preferred the gun-play/shooting in uncharted 1 but the story and settings in uncharted 2 more.
but you got my point and I cant think of many games that have a character like ND, but plenty bald dude bro space marines. No issue with them but its a nice change to play as someone different.
