Although not originally on my initial play through of Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune did I enjoy it, I had played it again on its hardest difficulty and loved it. I had played that around the time the trophies came along for it, and it’s probably still one of my favorite games. Then the sequel to it came out on October 13, 2009, I had been playing Crysis for the first time since my brother had just bought a powerful enough PC to play it on. When the opening cut scene had started on Uncharted 2, the ending credits were rolling on Crysis. Now, maybe it wasn’t entirely Crysis’ fault, or maybe it was, but after playing all the way through Uncharted 2 in one eight hour sitting, I noticed something was wrong, and it was just the fact that I didn’t enjoy it quite as much as I thought I would and should.
Till this day, I still don’t enjoy it as much as I originally had hoped, but I at least know why, and it’s because I didn’t find the shooting to be all that fun. I know I’m in the minority there, but aside from that one thing, everything else I did enjoy quite enough. The great characters from the first were back and then some, action set pieces were greatly cinematic, and there was just a lot to like for such a quality game. I still like Uncharted enough to want the third, but would you recommend it even though I didn’t enjoy the shooting from Drake’s Fortune’s sequel? And here’s the short on Batman… I loved Arkham Asylum, and I really want its sequel. I know I won’t be let down by that game, but who knows, I could! Which do you prefer?
