Uncharted is the only ps3 exclusive I have not played, is it worth me picking it up before uncharted 2 releases?

Also, a good description of the game and gameplay would be nice.

P.S think tomb raider with better graphics, a dude instead of lara and more action etc.

Yes pick up UC before UC 2.

UC has treasure finding/platforming/shooter elements ala GEOW. Great story , stunning graphics. You'll enjoy it and it will prepare you for UC 2.

Yes, even though the story isn't directly related it will help fill in some references and also you will get to know the characters better. Uncharted had some rich character models.

Most definately, but id suggest renting it if your only going through it in preparation for the 2nd.

Think gears of war and crossed with tomb raider mixed in with its own style making it unique - overall very solid and fun.

But its the story,characters and presentation that seperates it from the rest, truly epic, and youl be dying for among theives when youve finnished.

It's what I did recently, & now I'm mad pumped for the sequel. I'm glad I finished it before getting the last firmware update too lol. I'm still not doing it until the problems are solved.

Even if it follows in the footsteps of Indiana Jones style story telling and the sequels have very little to do with one another. GET THIS GAME. It's probably the best PS3 exclusive and it's definately one of the best overall presentations of a game I've ever seen. It's awesome.

P.S. - If the folks on this forum havent already convinced you then i dont know what will haha.

Man, I could watch Indiana Jones movies all day and still don't get bored of them, well the Glass Skull one was a bit ''meh'' but still good.

I only bought it about a month ago when the price finally dropped. Definitely worth the purchase. Good thing I finished it before 3.0 though, because supposedly that causes some freezes. There should probably be a 3.01 around the corner to fix it anyway

yeah.. but rent it. (unless you can get it real cheap) playing the Uncharted will familiarize you with drake's character (along with the supporting cast), and i think that's essential before playing U2... Obviously, it's not required, but it would make playing the sequel seemingly more special because you'll be more attached to the characters... at least that's what i think.

yep also getting the plat takes a bit less than a week and even after u want to keep playing and that can be accomplished when uncharted 2 comes out....

OPINION: Yes.

DESCRIPTION: Great graphics and sound effects. Very realistic. Great AI and tough enemies. It's a little difficult, but when you beat a giant wave of enemies, it's very rewarding. Great tps action. It has a nice cover system, and unlesss you use it, you will die, quickly. Fair variety of weapons. Good platforming and puzzle solving to break up the action. Good story.
