Uncharted 1-3 are straight ass, but what's this? Well designed combat encounters that take advantage of Drake's innate agility and athleticism? Intriguing historical mystique that mirrors hero's personal journey? Naughty Dog holding back with destruction pageantry and urgent action sequences so a few times they do happen they can actually leave an impact? It's still simplistic to the core, but this has to be the first time Sony's 7th-8th gen prestige formula actually worked on me. All it took is some focus and restraint, qualities that these games nearly always lack.
