    A beautiful experience

    Uncharted:Drakes Fortune is a visually satisfying game,but some of the AI is just to tough.I'm just gonna get right to this and this might be a pretty short review because I want to get back to playing some Madden.Well the game starts out and put's you in a boat while your fighting off enemies and just that little part is great.If you just look at the beautiful water you'll be in awe at the amazing colors and the enviroment around you.I will say the game does get a little repetitive,I mean all you do is kill people(Which can be extremely tough)then do a platforming scene.Which is another thing that is greatly tough.Some of the things you have to jump onto,you can't even see and this get's extremely frusterating after a while.Also some of the action scenes are intense and hard,you'll be fighting and they'll brake your cover and in about 5 seconds you'll be mauled with gun fire and die,or sometimes they all rush on to you and when they got shotguns and they do that you can pretty much consider yourself screwed.II do love the controls though.It's eaay to get to cover and fun to use Six Axis to walk across logs and control gernades.The puzzles in  it could have been a little tougher,some of them was really easy to find out,come to think of it I can't really think of to many puzzles in the game at all.Well the voice work of both Drake and Sully are great,don't get me wrong Elena's character done amazing but I just wanted to mention Drake and Sullys voice work.The sound on this game is another great thing.The weapons sounds as realistic as you can get,and all of this is topped off with an epic story that need's a sequel!


    Multiplayer:~None~


    Re-play value:It is suprising to me that I Can give a game with no multiplayer a nice re-play value.But with the newly patched trophies and some great combat,you'll want to beat this probably ore than 3 or 4 times.


    End It!Well this game is a definate buy with a cheap price tag,trophies,amazing visuals,great combat,and an epic story,this is in unforgettable experiance.I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

        Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune tells the story of Nathan Drake, a treasure hunter, as well as a descendant of the famous historical figure Sir Francis Drake. Drake and his friend, Sully, are chasing the ancient lost city of El Dorado. Together, accompanied by journalist Elena, they follow clues in the journal that belonged to Francis Drake himself. You can expect some plot twists here and there, and for the most part, the story is great. It starts off slowly, introducing you to the character...

      I wanted to like it more 0

      Uncharted looks great, there is no denying that.  The story is also decent, and the gun play is functional, so why don't i like it more?   Uncharted, for those who don't know, is Gears of War meets Tomb Raider meets Indiana Jones.  The influence from Indiana Jones is in the story, and that bit is really well told.  Nathan Drake is a great action hero and Nolan North really brings him to life.  I also ended up actually liking the obligatory love interest and the villains are suitably evil.  There...
