This is my first Uncharted game and the biggest problem for me is the cover-based 3rd person shooting, not just because it’s a style of gameplay I don’t prefer (though I will note that the movement afforded to Drake makes this a much better cover-based 3rd person shooter than others I have played) but also because I think it rather damages the story. Makes it a lot more difficult to root for the wisecracking Drake and co. when they’re all apparently gun-toting mass murders. Seriously, in this game alone you kill hundreds of people—such a fact puts something of a damper on the epilogue. Raiders of Lost Ark avoided this problem by making Indy’s enemies Nazis—if Drake was killing Nazis, I wouldn’t bat an eye.

Anyways, still a very fun game and I love the whole treasure-hunter adventure gameplay—and I love pirates!!

en garde dickhead!!

I never played the original and I didn't want to go back to the old tank controls so I settled for this stellar remake instead. The over-the-shoulder controls and technically stunning lighting work made this a tense ride. I'm a Resident Evil vet so the puzzles were fine but I could see this being a very confusing game if it's your first RE game.

Bobby Buckets, my 7'2" Center for the Milwaukee Bucks, won the championship in his first season and that seemed like a good point to shelve this. The game itself is fantastic but the sheer amount of microtransactions this game pushes on you is absolutely disgusting.
