As for your special request, I'm going to start posting overtly LONGER posts, with WORSE formatting, JUST for you - from me to you. Now go cry else where goofball lolBrofists just shut the fvck up with your overtly long and poorly formatted posts, it makes my brain hurt trying to read them.

What is so good about Uncharted?
This topic is locked from further discussion.
[QUOTE="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.
No, I haven't played it. Nothing I said required me to play it to understand. I would play it if I had a PS3, I HAVE seen a Let's Play of 1 and 2, but that is close as I've gotten to it. Nowhere did I say it had bad gameplay, some people have, but I can't agree or disagree. If the gameplay was so good, wouldn't you want more? Well, you didn't get more because it would have interfered with story, they said this themselves. It also isn't an adventure game because there is no adventuring to be done in gameplay.

I suppose you didn't say the gameplay is bad. But what a lot of people on this site are trying to argue is that the production value was ALL it was good at. What i am saying is that the gameplay is, in fact, quite good (with exception to the first which isn't quite as responsive). People on this website tend to explode on things they don't like and the gameplay in uncharted being average or less is a big lie. There are plenty of games I dislike that are rated very highly. However, I still acknowledge they are good games and can see why everybody would like them. Besides, the games wouldn't have gotten such good reviews if it was ALL about story and presentation. Honestly, I'd love to have more. however, i am very addicted to the multiplayer, competitive and the coop (which probably trumps the campaign in pure gameplay). The game will probably last me for at least another year before i get sick of it.
It's a lot better than it's sum of its parts. The shooting is pretty standard (but good), the characters are likeable, but not exactly enthralling, the platforming is linear and practically impossible to fail at, and the story is sub par. The only truly exceptional elements in the series are it's set pieces and it's visuals -- yet despite all this the series somehow comes together wondrously. It's got that magic touch.
You must be the jerk that mashes all the buttons during cutscenes. You don't deserve an answer.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.

^^^ [QUOTE="Brofists"]Is the story in Unchartrd 3 cliche? Yes, but then a majority of stories in other games are a word thats worse then cliche, if that's the case(talking about in terms of video games) I dont know though, i personally thought the story in U3 was one of the best video game stories I've ever had the joy of playing through. Of course, IF the story wasnt delivered as well as it was , and was not as paced as well as it was, then the story wouldn't be as enjoyable as it was, But IT WAS delivered and told extremely well...dialogue was great too, and it was paced well...So the story was engrossing. You were able to get into it easily, and enjoy it. The gamplay moments that proceeded were awesome too, and the presentation as a whole was just killer(easily all around best on consoles) The performances between Drake and Elena/Sully are natural and intimate . They are more humanly fleshed out and feel more "personal," then a VAST majority of games, and really breath life and emotion into the game, and give the game a weighty and unique touching feel. Bottom line, is that the game is mad fan to play through (because of the epic cinematic gaming also) and it is a ride to remember. Look, Ideas and stories MEAN NOTHING without execution and delivery. Here's a wild analogy lol. We might as well say Michael Jordan would have sucked if he didn't know how to direct and apply his talent to basketball. Think about in fighting ; how less talented fighters are able to beat more talented fighters by better applying what they got (in their skills and their style) even though having less talent to work with , they apply what they do have better. Delivery and execution ARE one of Uncharted's main strengths, And even then, dont kid yourself, the barebones story is actualy not any more "cliche" or worse or less interesting then a majority of other video game stories have been. In fact, in terms of video game stories. Uncharted's stories are upper tier...BUT that's in comparison to other video games. But where it(U2/U3) TRULY SHINES far brighter then all the competition is in its delivery and execution. You cant take that away. 2. Uncharted is less like "playing" a game, in the typical old school way, and is more like a gaming experience of today with Drake. Naughty Dog with Uncharted knew exactly what it was doing, and it is a lot more immersive as a game, and is a more memorable gaming experience IMO, even though its shorter then an RPG. Its shorter but MUCH sweeter. And also \/ [QUOTE="Brofists"]A 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 (fun, fluid, and super responsive controls to boot too) BUT WHEN you do add that killer presentation, that patented Naughty Dog level of stellar story telling techniques/mechanics, it kicks the gameplay up a notch, and gives the gameplay a far greater purpose.It's a lot better than it's sum of its parts. The shooting is pretty standard (but good), the characters are likeable, but not exactly enthralling, the platforming is linear and practically impossible to fail at, and the story is sub par. The only truly exceptional elements in the series are it's set pieces and it's visuals -- yet despite all this the series somehow comes together wondrously. It's got that magic touch.

Uncharted games are the best this gen.......and you need to buy a PS3.AtariKidX
:lol:
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 MPNaveedlifeQuoted again for truth. You couldn't have said better. It needs to be said again and again. Anyway, Uncharted has such unparalleled presentation (graphics/story/story telling/music/audio/animations - which really add to the gameplay) THAT some people forget that Uncharted also has the great fundamental gameplay to match...regardless. The KILLER all around presentation only adds to Uncharted that much more, and pushes it into tiers far above all the competition. Its almost as if some select idiots here have said,"well Uncharted already has great presentation, so it cant have great gameplay, we'll just say the gameplay sucks or is average." That mentality is comically absurd. Uncharted does have GREAT EVERY THING, the immense fan praise, and glowing critical reviews reflect that.
