This game was a HUGE surprise for me. I knew it would be good, but I wasn't really interested until I heard about some comparison's to one of my fav old games, pitfall. I ordered this game and beat it within 3 days of its arrival on my doorstep. I absolutelly cannot wait until Uncharted 2 is released.

This game is 1 part Pitfall, 2 parts Tomb Raider, 1/2 part Syphon Filter(control-wise), and 5 parts hollywood adventure film. Never before have I seen a game come so close to an actual movie in script, story, and dialogue(note that I played this before MGS4 came out ;p ) and actually laughed out loud many times during the journey. The voice acting is outstanding and the script is quite witty for videogame fair. The movie scenes are always short and too the point, but compelling while they last. It really feels like your there in the midst of the chase-scenes and such. The atmosphere of the game is its greatest asset though as the landscape is shwon in near perfect detail. I have never seen the lighting or gorgeous sunlight effects this game has in any other "console" game. Climbing from ledge to ledge, I actually found myself at points just angling the camera a bit to catch the perfect view of the distant sunset shimmering off the nearby plane wreckage, or the waterfalls cascading down 100 feet below to a rapidly flowing river waiting for you to fall headlong into its depths.

The shooting elements, the platforming elements, and everything in between is perfect. I figured this game would just have some lame throwback shooting system but its actually very fine-tuned and works better than most I've played. If you played Gears of War and thought those controls were to your liking due to the tightness in all aspects, then you will find solace in the fact that these controls feel just as simple and smooth.

The only drawback I can think of for this game is that its much too short. You can beat it under 10 hours, maybe less than 5-6 if you really know where your going. I can't express enough, however, that this absolutelly does NOT mean you should bypass this gaming journey. On the contrary, the short time you spend playing this game will only serve to stregthen the experience as you will probably find yourself appreciating it that much more for its jam-packed content.

An eye candy feast!

im not sure where to begin really. This game was great in so many aspects. First and formost is the incredible eye candy feast that you're treated to. The game is just flat out stunning looking. it looks like the makers of this game really pushed the PS3's graphics capability to the limit. As some of the other reviewers already stated, the gameplay is something out of an Indiana Jones Film. You wont be dissapointed!

excellent

This is a great game. Easily the best game I've played on the PS3. The gun battles are intense and exciting. The controls are really smooth. The graphics are gorgeous. I hope we get a sequel to this one! Great game!!!

Uncharted should be part of every PS3 owners collection

I'm not really a good reviewer and I keep it very simple. In this case, uncharted is one awesome videogame. It's like watching a Indiana Jones movie. The story is fresh and gets you hooked. The gameplay is fun as well; mixes the best elements of Tomb Raider and Gears of War. Graphics is awesome...there are parts where I thought I was watching National Geographic in real life. Just buy it!

Entertaining and addictive game

I borrowed this game from a friend and highly recommend it. It's like a blend of the popular Myst games with more shooting and violence. They are also always giving you hints along the way to keep you from becoming stuck in one area and becoming bored with it.

The game started out a little slow and I thought I wouldn't be interested. But the more I play, the more I have come to like it. It's also much longer than I thought it would be. Everyone kept saying how short it seemed, but for the average player like me that has maybe 30-45 minutes a night to devote to video games I am still playing it after about 2 weeks. People saying it's so short must have no life and play for hours at a time. I'm not quite finished, but so far it has been great and the best game for PS3 so far. So much for "GTA IV" which I bought because of all the hype surrounding it. "Uncharted" will definitely keep your attention.

solid throughout

The game was great, it incorporated features from other games that made the game play almost spotless. The game wasn't very long, but that didn't affect me what so ever. Perhaps it may have helped, because I actually want to play it again. The story/plot was enjoyable as well.
I would say this is a must own, though it could almost be a game you could rent and beat in a few days if your a hardcore gamer; but, I still feel you would want to play it again if you needed to return it.

Amazing !!!
