That would be amusing since Assassin's Creed II was the game that stopped UC2 from being GOTY that year

You have my axe.

 

[Callibretto]

Sully is so dead in U3. sorry Sully, being a mentor /father figure to Drake, and being the focus of the story is basically a guaranteed Sully's death flag.

 

[DangerStepp]

Way late on that one.

It's new to me!

 

[VariantX04]

It takes place in Saudi Arabia? Our lovable government won't like this. :lol

 

[WrenchNinja]

So how do you think ND is going to top themselves set piece wise? The hotel falling down in Nepal and the whole train sequence were the most talked about segments of the UC2.

How about a Pyramid falling apart?:lol

 

[heringer]

YES!

 

[daoster]

Ending: Mark Wahlberg wakes up. :|

Which leads right into the Uncharted movie...the games were just Mark's..err Nathan's dream!

They'll secretly love it.

There are still deserts in South Arabia, no?

I just noticed something... ND

Nathan Drake
Naughty Dog

O.O

You should check out the resemblance between Nathan Drake's appearance and that of Naughty Dog founder Jason Rubin.

 

[AltogetherAndrews]

What? :lol

For real. Also, Assassin's Creed II was also the greater triumph: from a shaky 7.2 to a 9.9, that handily beats the still-impressive 7.8 to 9.8.

It's the way things are.

Now we're talking science.

 

[webrunner]

They call it "Uncharted" but Drake spends an awful lot of time following maps.

Seems pretty charted to me.

 

[VariantX04]

The spoken Arabic better not be laughable. Someone tell ND to hire me as a consultant.

 

[BowieZ]

Think the title has some hint at carrying on the first game's story to some extent? Maybe even a prequel? The Drake in the first game's title wasn't Nathan, maybe this is Francis too.

Uncharted 3: Drake's Conception

It also charts well on the Sales charts. Not Uncharted there either.

Uncharted 3: Drake's Contraception

Lazarevic goes back in time to make sure Nate isn't born, and we find out his dad is Mark Wahlberg.

 

[Grisby]

Yes! This and a new Tomb Raider have made my week.

Now theres a series where the "2 is a DRASTIC improvement over 1!" statement is 100% true.

 

[VariantX04]

Not only am I getting a new Uncharted, it takes place in my backyard!

 

[Kandinsky]

Third already?, nice i guess:lol

 

[Killthee]

So, I know it's early but... when you get the game, which will you do first? Story mode, or Multiplayer?

I think for me, this time, I will just straight into multiplayer, at least for a few hours to see what's new. Then start the real game. I've spent like 10x more time playing MP than Single on UC2.

Single player. Multi maps will most likely spoil single player locations, so I'm gonna blaze right through single player before touching multi.

dumbest fucking poster on the planet?

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

Considering the third will be released in somewhere near October 2011, two years is a good time for a sequel. One year? Not so good.

Uncharted aspires to be an cinematic experience, unlike most games, therefore it makes sense to view it not only in comparison to other games, but to the films it aspires to emulate. Find me an adventure film with such a grievous body count. I love the Uncharted series, but that doesn't mean I don't enjoy pointing out some of its more ridiculous incongruities.

This is the first and last time I wade into this silly argument.

Find me an action film that lasts 10-12 hours, and pits the hero in life-or-death combat every 5-10 minutes, and we'll talk about establishing decent comparisons. Right now this argument revolves around the absurd comparison of content of 2 hour films, with the content of video games 5 to 10 times that length. And this is even before we start considering the massive difference between the two media, how the audience/user interacts with each.

PS: We're talking video games, dudes: Virtually every game since Mario involves some kind of mass-murder of an enemy population.

Drake on a plane(that you have to run through as it's being shot down).

that's interesting point. maybe the Drake here refer to Nathan's father? I always imagine it in my head that Nathan's dad and Sully is good friend, something happen with Nathan's dad so Sully look after Nathan.

Yep 2 years or 2 half years is a good time for a sequel.

 

[SlasherJPC]

I'd love it if they give a nod to Indiana Jones and have a sequence where someone is captured and a chase ensues within the city!

Will Uncharted 2 beat Uncharted 1 as the most overated piece of software here?!, time will tell.

Looks cool.

Uncharted 2 or Brutal Legend: BL needs your money, go that way :O

Spoiler

thats what im doing anyway

Thanks for the contribution to the society, by the way. How's your Wii doing? Guess it won't be the only "game" to have sand in 2011.

EDIT: Ironic since you have a Mario avatar. How many games have he been in so far?

 

[daoster]

Maybe this game will be the sort that jumps back and forth between present day and the past, using the past as a way to explore Drake and Sully's relationship.

 

[AranhaHunter]

There will not be any split screen in Uncharted 3. ND strives for techical marvel when developing games, and Split-Screen is innately at odds with that, with having to render an area twice, etc. Don't get your hopes up for something that has little to no chance of happening.

I remember an interview with Evan Wells where he said that they couldn't include it for U2, but he knew that local multiplayer was a desirable feature and would look into supporting it for their engine for future games, but yeah I'll keep my expectations low.

Third already?, nice i guess:lol

Must resist quoting avatar....

 

[EarsOfASnake]

Third already?, nice i guess:lol

I felt the same at first, I am still enjoying U2. However, 12 months from now? Hell yeah I will be all over this!

 

[Kos Luftar]

Yes!!!!
This game will be out when I am no longer in school. I can't wait to play it in 1 sitting, and then start over to get platinum trophy.

 

[Corto]

What does "backward climbing" mean?

escaping from a nuclear explosion in a fridge.

heavy rain kinda beat them to that punch, though.

also, outrunning the sun to a temple.

One thing is for sure, it will be better than all the Mummy movies put together.

Well said and I agree. The only alternative to this is a game along the lines of Heavy Rain or Farenheit. If there's a game play experience that can deliver as much action as an Uncharted (or a movie of the same flavor) that doesn't involve involve mass slayings then we haven't played it yet.
