TGS07: Uncharted hands-on

An updated build of Uncharted: Drake's Fortune was on display at Sony's pre-TGS media briefing. The new demo comes a long way from its previous E3 presentation, which featured some serious technical glitches, and control issues. Almost immediately, players will see that the aiming has been far improved, feeling far more accurate and responsive than before. Thankfully, players will be able to fine-tune their control settings through adjustable control sensitivity, and invert options for horizontal and vertical controls.

of must have games but why does the hands on preview compare some of it to GoW? Thats a fps not an action game! Its like comparing Pac man to MGS 3 because they both eat thing in the game. I just don't get it.

RadientFlux6078d ago

Actually a lot of people don't consider GoW to be FPS because of its 3rd person perspective.

Besides having Uncharted being compared to GoW isn't a bad thing considering the high reviews and praise GoW received

cr33ping_death6078d ago

thats what i said it " looks like gears with tomb raider" and i lose a bubble........fanboys dont want a PS3 game comapared to their precious game. even though i have GEARS......whos to say i cant compare?

crck6078d ago

Especially this comment "the action lacks the visceral punch of Gears". Gears is a blood and gore war shooter. Uncharted is an adventure game probably trying to get a Teen rating. Two very different games.

nasim6078d ago

with ps3 exclusives like HS and UNCHARTED

HS and UNCHARTED are totally on a diiferent domain.

GEARS is just a massively downgraded UT3. understandable since x360 is a very low powered console.

DONT ever compare wii like x360's cartoon HALO 3 and GEARS with PS3 exclusives.

compare ps3 exclusives with Crysis. That is nice

barom6078d ago

rofl nasim u make me crack up everytime.

anyway I'm guessing people usually compare Gears to Uncharted because of the cover system. And that it's in third person. And tbh it does look very similiar (the cover system) which I think it's good.

Isit just me or graphics look better now than during E3? Just checked that trailer that is few articles below this one and damn it look good.

crck6078d ago

The textures, shadowing and lighting seem to have all improved.

fenderputty6078d ago

When the gun fighting goes on it looks similar to gears. A gears comparison isn't a bad thing either. That game looks great. This game looks AMAZING. If they nail the gunplay then this game is AAA for sure.

hotshot12376078d ago

resistance, motorstorm, warhawk, virtua fighter, even though its coming to 360 with online play, we still have it to play, warhawk, and the great but TOO SHORT HEAVENLY SWORD. not bad for first year titles. rachet and clank, folklore, unreal tournamnent, and UNCHARTED ARE THE MAIN ONES IM LOOKING FOWARD TO NEXT. UNCHARTED IS AT NUMBER 1 FOR ME THOUGH. idk why people say ps3 has no games when they have soooo many in there first year. but why do people this gen compare a game to so many other ones. just rate the game as a seperate indivisual title. although i liked gears, please dont say it should have certain things gears of war did

solidt126078d ago

I need to see more of this game but I know i am getting it.

The Inconsistent Harmony: 5 Examples of Ludonarrative Dissonance in Video Games

VGChartz's Issa Maki: "I finally have a proper designation akin to what I've always referred to internally as 'the line that must be crossed' or 'The Line', for short – ludonarrative dissonance – the separation from a video game's story in relation to its gameplay. Why isn't PETA all up in Mario's grill for jumping on turtles and killing fish, or charging Samus Aran with the extinction of the Metroid species? Ever notice how fire has that habit of making bosses in Resident Evil stronger? Read on my friend, for I endeavor to imbue you with the ability to engage in basic queries concerning the concept."

UC 2, 4, 3 and 1. Great read and article

ABizzel11018d ago

No Golden Abyss -_-, otherwise I agree with the order.

UC2: Best overall
UC4: Best graphics, best gameplay, best locations, best environements
UC3: Best set pieces IMO (the boat and desert fights will always be amazing)
UC1: A rough Draft of what was to come
UCGA: Basically UC1 on Vita

Levii_921018d ago (Edited 1018d ago )

Great list and great article nicely writen and explained. Although for me personaly i would put Drakes Fortune above Drake’s Deception and Uncharted 4 is absolutely my favourite of the franchise and number 1 for me.

Inverno1018d ago

U2 is the only game playable on crushing without causing a great amount of frustration. Not to mention just how much influence it had that they redid some of U2s set pieces like the caravan twice, and armored truck chase in U4.

DFresh1018d ago (Edited 1018d ago )

I'd rate it as the following.

1.) Uncharted 2
(Close to perfection of any game I've played in years. Single Player/Multiplayer/Co Op all amazing.)

2.) Uncharted 3
(On par with UC2 multiplayer/co op wise minus the kickbacks [aka killstreaks]. I really liked the Lawrence of Arabia story.)

3.) Uncharted 4
(Single player is amazing. Multiplayer was meh. Co Op had potential. Absolutely hated the health revive system it slowed down the game way too much. Always preferred the fast pace action of UC2/UC3. Made it way more fun that way. Recoil was too ridiculous that most people in lobbies would only do hip firing, using power weapons and using that OP grappling hook to melee people after dropping them. Nobody wanted to revive anyone.)

4.) Uncharted
(It's the first in the series so it's hard to judge. Though I loved the story.)

NecrumOddBoy1018d ago

I agree here but it’s also a series you can play from front to back and truly enjoy. Story-wise, they are all great and flow so well. I wish they threw both Golden Abyss and Lost Legacy on this list. Lost Legacy is the best mechanically in my opinion. You can see it’s stepping stone framework for TLOUS2.

Michiel19891018d ago

uncharted 2 is one of the few games that actually surpassed its pre-release hype.

medman1018d ago (Edited 1018d ago )

I am a single player gamer...I barely ever touch a multiplayer component. The only exceptions over the years have been the Mass Effect 3 multiplayer, TLOU factions, and the Uncharted 2 multiplayer. The Uncharted 2 multiplayer saw me spend more time playing it than all my other multiplayer experiences over the years combined. That game really was a masterpiece all around.

brando0081017d ago

I agree completely, those are all stellar MP experiences, coming from another SP gamer who only occasionally gives MP some time.

Gardenia1018d ago

Come to think of it, the step between Uncharted 1 and Uncharted 2 is huge. It goes from the weakest in the series to one of the best games ever made.
I think I'm going to play all of them again soon.

Ninver1018d ago

Yeah all of a sudden I've got that Uncharted itch.

Michiel19891018d ago

is multiplayer still up for the remastered trilogy? or did it never have UC2 mp?

Ninver1017d ago

@michiel1989

Not sure
