if you dont like it, why do you need others to tell you why Uncharted is a good series??? that wont change your opinion, would it ??
campzor
yes I want someone to actually convince me why I should buy this game
if it doesnt look interesting to you then dont buy it. For me i love: -Amazing charming cast -Fantastic storytelling (not the story, just the storytelling) and excellent pacing -Top tier set pieces only rivaled by a few other developers -Seamless cinematic transition from gameplay to cutscene and vice versa -Great soundtrack -Solid gunplay (not so much in the first game) with light elements of platforming and puzzle solving -Graphics leading franchise (for consoles)And the animations? How could you write such a flawless statement and leave out Animations?
Best Graphics & Animations in video game consoles by a crazy ass mile.
[QUOTE="Miketheman83"]Funny how everyone is saying "set pieces, production values, voice acting" but no one is praising it's gameplay. What has gaming become....TilxWLOC
Thank you, I was about to post on this. A lot of Uncharted's praise comes from it's production values. That is pretty much all I ever heard about it, I didn't even know what kind of game it was for a while, no mention of gameplay, just story, characters, blah, blah. That is my problem with the games, they are backwards. "Naughty Gods", based on these games? No. They sacrificed gaming for story; did anyone care that they could have had even more fun if they hadn't? Nope, because of the production values.
Also, what makes this game action/adventure? Where is the adventure? I thought it was pretty linear, other than the adventure Drake is on in the story, there is no gameplay adventuring to be had, where the label should apply.
Also, this is why you know we don't have a Nintendo version of ispeakfact because they would have argued Other M's voice acting against Uncharted's.
Did you even play it? I, and many others think the game has great gameplay. Its one of my favorites because the gameplay is, in my opinion, up there with the best. A lot of people are straight addicted to the multiplayer, my favorite this gen by FAR. The production values are always talked about because they are unrivaled.[QUOTE="mems_1224"][QUOTE="-ArchAngeL-777-"]As far as gameplay its a jack of all trades. It has shooting, platforming, and hand to hand elements. Neither are the best, but neither are terrible either. When you combine them with the excellent storytelling, characterization, and graphics, you get an excellent game. Its an action/adventure game, not a shooter...similar to how Mass Effect is still an RPG even though it has high levels of shooting mechanics.Blabadonthe shooting was pretty terrible in 3. melee combat was subpar especially after playing batman F*ck Uncharted 3's melee system. 3 was actually the worst of the games as far as I'm concerned. The locations sucked. The plot wasnt that interesting. There were too many narrow corridor type fights or running gameplay scenarios. The shooting was the least of its problems. The episode with the pirates, ship, and docks were the only parts worth playing.
Something really true-ArchAngeL-777-
:shock: F*cking read my mind. I would say Chapter 2 would have been amazing, but it was slow, boring, and didn't hold up in the later parts story. While the pirates and their leader were shoddily made and terribly underdeveloped, the shipyard part is probably my second favorite sequence in the entire series after the infamous Blue Room in UC1. :twisted: 3 was actually the worst of the games as far as I'm concerned.

[QUOTE="brofists"][QUOTE="mems_1224"]the cast is amazing, the setpieces are good, good soundtrack gameplay is the only real weakness, that and the story in 3mems_1224A game that scores as highly as Uncharted, scores that high for a reason, because all aspects of its design were strong. Take away the presentation, and your still left with a good playing game, BUT WHEN you do add that killer presentation, it takes the gameplay up a notch, and gives the gameplay a greater purpose. gameplay is average at best. simple puzzles, hand holding platforming and bad shooting. it shouldn't take 20 shots to the head to kill someone funny because it only took me one shot to head to kill any one only the armerd ones take too much

For me the Uncharted games have been getting better and better between games.
If you don't understand by now, then you are too slow to be worth the effort of trying to explain because you still wouldn't understand.I don't understand why this series gets all the attention? When you really break it down it's just another generic TPS with medicore cover system. So what is it about this game if the gameplay is crap is it graphics because thats all it's going and even then there not all that fantastic.

Ahhh my bad, it just seems all too often people aren't here to actually have a discussion as much as they are here to mess with people. Like, any reasonable debate is ignored and people just focus on the fanboys and claim that fanboys = everyone. Super annoying if you come here because you like to actually talk about games
[QUOTE="Blabadon"] Another thing nerfed in Uncharted 3.Swift_Boss_A
Too true :(
Elena > Chloe ;)
PS - the gameplay is great all you naysayers. I never liked Gears (the only other well known TPS) because its gameplay sucks. You run around like a tank. In Uncharted you feel very versatile and maneuverable. The parkour elements with the slick and tight controls make for some really fun moments in MP.
Uncharted has got a lot of presentation in it, but the game itself is pretty bad. Terible controls, camera, gun play, cover, and pacing. Every "level" is the same, you just jump from one crumbling surface to the next when a door would do just fine, then you get shot at, then the terrible plot continues. Most of the time you just die over and over restarting 10 seconds before death forever until you get it right.
Is this really the paragon of gaming?
Uncharted is a great idea for a movie...but I fail to see how it's a good idea for a game.

goblaa
You can apply that same type of overgeneralization to literally almost any game.
I liked them all including the first one for all the obvious reasons. Charming charecters and story. Amazing graphics and presentation etc etc. But one thing Uncharted does great is pacing. The gameplay changes up at all the right spots slows down and builds up at all the right times. It's the variety of gameplay elements that keeps the game fresh which I like because I've been paying videogames since I was 3 and now that I'm 29 I can really apreciate a game that has varied gameplay elements and isn't just 5-12 hours of straight shooting.

Exactly my thoughts.
I think it has to do a little bit with it being a game made by a developer with a good track record.
Also, the games themselves are not bad. They are rather entertaining. Sure, there are better mechanic systems or physics or gunplay or gameplay out there, but I don't think very many games get quite the polish that is really clear in the Uncharted series. Plus, just the Start Menu music gets me all hyped up for a game. :P.

By pretty much all gameplay standards, I feel like Uncharted is better, yet I still love my Gears. The gameplay in Uncharted 3 was the same as the originals, but were paced badly in what proportion goes where imo.[QUOTE="Swift_Boss_A"]

Despite the fact this is a troll topic, I will answer your question. It is because it has a cast of likable characters and an engaging single player.I don't understand why this series gets all the attention? When you really break it down it's just another generic TPS with medicore cover system. So what is it about this game if the gameplay is crap is it graphics because thats all it's going and even then there not all that fantastic.

I have fun with it and enjoy the games, not much else I can say about it.

okay, you need to scale back your love for the series a bit. Let's not kid ourselves. Uncharted is a very entertaining series but it's disposable fun. If you could rent games anymore it would be a renter for sure

Pretty much this lol. Its like lems write down as many vauge, and random"criticisms" as they can on many pieces of paper, Put all those pieces of paper into a hat, Shake it all up, And then which ever piece of paper lems draw out of the hat, that becomes the random, and shallow criticism of the day used to blindly discredit Uncharted with. It reminds me of the family guy episode on South park , with the Manitees and all lol The family guy writers are the Uncharted haters/ lembots, and the random plot points in the manitee tank are like all the random, and vague "criticisms" they have for Uncharted. Which ever random ball gets picked by the mantinees, that's what becomes Family Guys next plot point/ the haters next shallow "criticism" about Uncharted lol I mean, that man you quoted, and a couple other people in this thread( obviously haters and or lems) are and have been coming up with complete off the wall type sh*t lol. You have to wonder, if they've even touched an Uncharted game before, after reading some of their posts. To call Uncharted 's controls terrible is .....is just LOL. He's obviously never played an Uncharted game before, that or he is a troll. Uncharted has some of the most responsive, and fluid controls of any third person game i've ever played. The stellar animations (by far the best animations in gaming) are a big reason for that as well. And like you said...and like many others have already said, the pacing is always brilliant in an Uncharted game. Either way, Uncharted is certainly not terrible in either of the aspects he mentioned,and even the most hardened hater, if he were still reasonable,would have to admit that Uncharted does each aspect fairly well. What Uncharted does better then any game is mix it all together beautifully, while being driven by the story in great fashion
Brofists just shut the fvck up with your overtly long and poorly formatted posts, it makes my brain hurt trying to read them.

Who gives a flying rats ass if its "disposal" fun. Fun IS FUN, no matter how you look at it. I mean, that's a ridiculous argument lol. You sound like a snobby elitest. Fun doesn't have to come from a challenge. Fun doesn't have to be "sophisticated fun," what ever in the blue hell that means. Fun just has to be fun. You feel me? Its an all too simple concept that should never be over -compliacted. And if a person finds something fun, who are you to tell them otherwise? Who are you to say that, "oh, its just 'disposal' fun, so it really doesn't count." Also, I've beaten each Uncharted game a combined total of 9 times. I wouldve never been able to get all that epic gaming in, if I had rented each Uncharted game instead. So I have PERSONALLY been very happy with my purchases, thank you very much:) Each Uncharted games was and has been worth every damn penny to me.
