I personally think it is one of the best RPGames that i have ever played, but i personally don't play many. I love how they put the cinematic videos into the gameplay and almost make it the gameplay. I recently just beat Uncharted 3 and i am surprised that their wasn't like a 15 minute boss at the end, just that British downie baby .

"Overrated" is a stupid buzzword thrown around by people who simply don't like something.

You can over-hype something, but I don't think you can over-rate a game. It all comes down to preference in the end. But imho, if there's a million or so people saying the same thing, chances are... it's true. So in this case, I don't think Uncharted's praise is undeserved. I don't own any of the Uncharted games, I recently bought Red Dead Redemption/Bioshock/MGS series, so I got a little something to keep me busy until I get around to buying Uncharted games. I will probably wait until U3 is 40-50 bucks.

True. And being "considered overrated" is an oxymoron, I would have thought.

Some people think so. I'm NOT one of them, though... ;)

Yeah... Emm... The thing is... FYI, Uncharted games ARE NOT RPGs... NOT EVEN CLOSE. They're "3rd Person Action-Adventure".

I stopped taking this thread seriously the moment you called Uncharted an RPG.

Well, it depends who you ask....

I consider them not to be over-rated, but some people do consider them over rated.

No, they definitely are not overrated. They are one of the leading franchises for a reason.

It's not an RPG but the first and second ones, to me, offer the best experiences.

It's entirely subjective. It's like saying something "sucks". There's no objective criteria by which something is good or not. It all boils down to personal opinion.

Uncharted 1 is overrated, 2 isn't and 3 has some overrated things about it but not as much as the 1st.

I like the UC series, but one thing I don't understand is why the levels are so linear. I mean, its an ADVENTURE game for gods sakes. There are rarely any points in the game where you can say 'Well I can either go through Path A or Path B on this level to get to my objective. Usually the only choice(s) you have are whether or not you want to stealth past/through your enemies, or turn it into a shootout. Anyhow, I just think the game could be improved a bit if the level design was a little better.

I think you are confusing old & modern adventure games... Name 1 modern action/adventure game that isn't linear... :|

They kinda need to be that way... or else the player might do something "screwey".

That's why we have RPGs. ;)

I think the game is just an OK game (7/10) but just because you and me and few others don't regard the game so high doesn't mean that the game is overrated. You have to accept the fact that rating of the game depends on the majority of gamers so if 90% think it's a classy game then it's not overrated in this sense.

OF COURSE they are overrated!!!!!!!!!!

is pry the WORST RPG ever... I`m a RPG fan and I would not give that more than 3 as RPG, and 3 is only for graphics and ... wait actually 1-2, bc it does not even have RPG music...

....
