Uncharted: Drake's Fortune (PS3) Reviews

A game that takes its design very much from the Tomb Raider, Lara Croft series. However, everything that the Tomb Raider series has done wrong recently, Uncharted: Drake's Fortune has corrected and improved on no end. The camera is never akwardly position, switching between the usual third person view behing the main character, to fixed ...  Read the complete review

The first, and probably best game I've had on the PS3! It came in a bundle with the PS3 console, so was the first game I played and the first thing I noticed were the stunning graphics, I mean for a first game on a new console it was exceptional, the facial expressions, scenery and cinematics were so close to humans, it was ...  Read the complete review

Playing drakes fortune will make you feel like you are playing the lead role in an indiana jones film. The story is very well done, the acting in the cut scenes is amongst the best I have seen in a game. The graphics are quite breathtaking in places. at one point I stopped and stared for several minutes at the view from a clifftop, over ...  Read the complete review

In the game, you play as Nathan Drake, a treasure hunter, who has to fight pirates, swing from wall to wall and solve puzzles. The game takes about 8 hours to complete on the first time around but it does have the best replay value of all the games on the PS3. The second time around you will be able to gain awards and incentives like ...  Read the complete review

This game is the reason why I bought the Playstation 3 in the first place! I saw all the trailers on TV and decided I HAD to have it! It had been too long since I played a good adventure game and Tomb Raider wasnt coming anytime soon so I had to quench my adventuring appetite somehow ;) In all its a good game, but I find it ...  Read the complete review

Overall Rating: 87% Uncharted is one of the few games on the PS3 that I would class as a must-buy. If you're a fan of action games, which, let's face it, most of us are, then you won't be disappointed. If there's a complaint to be made, it is that the game doesn't really do anything new - but in this day and age where 90% of ...  Read the complete review

I have to say I loved this game, the story, the graphics, the gameplay, they were all just amazing.

The game is full of little jokes and witt, and the voice ...  Read the complete review

To be quite frank, Uncharted is just one of those games you just have to buy. This PS3 Exclusive, one which I bought with slight hesitation, turned out to be a winner and blew my breath away! It comes to the table with amazing graphics, you are placed in a world with wondrously lush forests, old Spanish ruins and ancient ...  Read the complete review

This game is absolutly brilliant. Starting with a tomb-raider beginning, it soon becomes brilliant in its own right. From the very start you feel like something big is going to happen, and it has a perfect mixture of puzzles (with a 'diary' containing clues to help you out) and shoot-em-up scenes. The graphics are pretty ...  Read the complete review

Many moons ago I wrote an article about the great 360 game 'Gears of War' and suggested that it was a turning point in the consoles lifespan opening up true next generation gaming. For the past few weeks I have been looking forward to doing something similar with a game on my new Playstation 3 (PS3). However, try as I might I was ...  Read the complete review
