Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune was one of the first two game that I purchased last week after getting my Sony PlayStation 3. Yeah, if you missed it I know own a PS3.
Prior to my purchase, I hadn’t heard or read anything about the game… or just about any other PS3 game for that matter. But the package looked cool, and Sony was pushing it with a PS3 bundle, so I figured I’d give it a shot. I was actually quite pleased with the game which I finished earlier today.
It’s kind of a cross between Tomb Raider and Prince of Persia (what can I say, I like those types of games). You’ll spend a bit of time hanging from ledges, swinging from ropes, and jumping off of cliffs. And when you aren’t doing that, the rest of the time is spent dodging gun fire. I swear, by the time I finished, I thought I had taken on a small country.
Story wise the game may remind you a bit of National Treasure or Indiana Jones, though towards the end of the game it takes a swerve that resembles Return to Castle Wolfenstein more than anything. Definitely worth getting if you are looking for a good adventure game on the PS3. Yes, it is a PS3 exclusive.
