Quote from shaosam : Yes, the Uncharted series is pretty much the equivalent of a mindless summer action movie. Lots of explosions and car chases and a pretty hackneyed story. The most interesting thing I took away from the story is how nonchalant the protagonist is about viciously killing thousands of goons throughout his adventure. Many of those guys were just trying to support their families!

THIS! I just started playing Uncharted (started with #1) and I thought I was getting an Indiana Jones / puzzle / interesting game.... and what I got was Gears of War with the occasional jumping/climbing minigame and snarky / sarcastic commentary. Except the shooting mechanics are much, much worse than GOW, you have to either shoot the baddies in the face (not always easy when 10+ are shooting at you at the same time) or you have to unload a whole clip into them, and ammo is scarce. In #1 at least, the 2 most common weapons; the mini-uzi and the AK-47 are just useless more than 10 feet away from your target. I pretty much stick to the pistols to get any kind of range at all.

I was just thinking last night.... I am halfway or so through the first game and how many hundreds of random bad guys has he killed? Drake is a serial killer.

Edit - oh and I paid $15 for a used Uncharted 3, so $13 for a new copy is pretty slick. TU
