Intense adventure yet! Naughty Dog has brought a whole new adventure in the video game world, this is the best that I’ve seen yet! With superb graphics, storyline and voice over work, Uncharted Drakes Fortune maybe a winner
As you can tell, Naughty Dog has decided to lay off the cartoonish type video games for awhile to make a more realistic game. But don’t worry loyal Naughty Dog fans, Uncharted provides many of the comical cut-scenes, action and suspense that we are all used to.
You play as Nathan Drake, who believes that he is a descendant of Sir Francis Drake. Nate is an explorer who loves to just play around and joke. Nate is somewhat of an idiot at times, but he can be awesome too! Nate is a type of guy that makes many mistakes, but from some reason he makes it out of alive, and we just don’t understand how he can still be alive!
In the game you are accompanied by a show host named Elena Fisher. Elena Fisher has an attitude, and can drive Nate crazy at time, and does she have a awesome right hook! She helps you out on your quest to find the treasure of El Dorado, and she wants the record everything she can with her Cam-corder, but Nate doesn’t want the world to find out that they have just found the city of gold, what can Nate do in order to keep this from happening!?
Victor Sullivan is Nate’s trusted partner, and fellow companion. Victor is much of a smooth talker, and can be a smart-ass at times. Sully has been helping Nate try to find the clues to find Sir Francis’ fortune, but no luck has come until they go out to sea and find Drakes Coffin. Barely making it, Sully arrives in his plane to save Nate and Elena from pirates. Sully is in major debt, and needs money to save him, so he is willing to find money at any price! But what happens when your in debt with the leader of these pirates?
Uncharted has a very surprising twist! And get ready for a whole new style after the twist comes! It will change the gaming experience!
What does this game offer?
Uncharted doesn’t just offer the awesome gameplay, it offers tremendous voice over work, graphics, world/character design, and much more!
The game also adds many special features, such as Concept art, Interview with the Naughty Dog crew, the making of Uncharted, and also how they create movements in cut-scenes.
You can also check medals you earned. you earn medals by doing small little things like kill 50 pirates, 50 head-shots etc.
Gameplay
The controls are solid and basic, just like any other game, but uncharted adds spice to the gameplay! How? Well, here is someways that it made it awesome!
The gameplay in Uncharted is awesome! With a combination of 3rd person shooting, Platforming, and melee attacks, Uncharted provides satisfying gameplay.
Most of the time you will just be Shooting enemies, and platforming. The platforming is just terrific! You will climb extreme heights and jump from cliff to cliff! This is very intense when you have many unstable platforms just ready to fall. You can swing from vines, slide from vines, and do so much more.
Other than climbing, there is also just your normal 3rd person shooter type gameplay. Here is where the game gets better! Shot your way through pirates and see the pretty explosions! When shooting, you can switch to aiming mode, which allows you to aim at your enemies, but a useful feature is the ability to switch shoulders, so you can aim much better! This is useful when enemies are hiding behind pillars and rocks.
Another feature that the game has is the Melee attacks. Melee attacks come in play when you are close to an enemy or when you run out of ammo. The melee attacks are simple, there isn’t a combination type fighting, its just pushing the square or triangle button. But timing is the key when doing so. Mashing buttons wont just help you out.
Puzzle? There are many puzzles to solve in the world of Uncharted. raging from moving icons, pillars and shooting certain items.
Every now and then you will get to use jet ski or automobile.
For the Jet Ski, you can control is, while Elena shoots down the enemies, you can control when Elena shoots and what she blows up. The jet ski missions are fast paced, and you will enjoy the beauty of uncharted.
When riding a jeep, Elena is driving, and you are on the machine gun trying to save yourselves from the pirates on ATVs. This gets pretty intense especially when your moving at incredible speeds. The explosions are nice to see, and seeing a ATV being blown to pieces is just so god dang beautiful!
Graphics
….Beautiful….
The graphics in the game are just amazing, this shows the true power of the Playstation 3. The character designs are amazing, seeing each facial expression is so life like in every way! The world designs are superb! Seeing the bricks of the walls, the puddles, the leaves and trees, and water is just amazing! You’ll just love to stare at the water and see how real it all looks!
The level designs are well thought out! Everything makes sense and everything should be where it should.
Uncharted also uses a motion capture system, which makes the games physics engine awesome and realistic!
Music
Greg Edmonson, whom did the music for the tv series Firefly, worked on Uncharted’s Music. The music is great, its makes you feel the intesity of the game. The sound track is quite different, its classical, but not to classical. Which is just awesome!
Uncharted is a great game, and I recommend it to all PS3 owners! Its also my personal favorite game! Uncharted is an all new franchise by Naughty Dog, and I know that will take it far into the future!
