"One After The Other It Just Gets Better"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

When was the last time you played a series that had an amazing storyline with amazing gameplay that just got better as it went on- If you can't answer then you need to move Uncharted 1 & 2 & 3 into your trolley and click purchase.

Better Graphics. Better Sounds. Better Gameplay.

Naughty Dog has improved on an already highly polished series.

Multiplayer is fantastic. With unique additons such as kickbacks running around in free for all or team death match is sure to keep you on the edge of your seat. This game is the game that turned me to online gaming. Naughty Dog has transported the feel of the game into the multiplayer experience. Not just another generic shoot em up, you really feel as if your in the uncharted universe. With fantastic maps and a great reward system you will be late for work the next day.

"Best game available today!"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

I am not usually a fan of adventure games but I can honestly say this is the best game I have ever played in terms of attention to detail, playability and just the fact that I did not want to stop playing. Worth every penny. Didn't think it could get much better than Uncharted 2 but they have stepped it up yet again. Awesome

"Good game but felt disapointed "
4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Ok still the great gameplay from Uncharted 2 but felt very lacking in the story department. All in all a fun game but once finished I had a major feeling that it had something missing and have asked two friends that played it and they both said the same

"Good but still cant top uncharted 2"
3 stars"

Theres so much I wanted to love about UC3 but sadly it hasnt managed to better what naughty dog created with uncharted 2.

Graphics are pretty much the same as UC2, there is nothing that hasnt been seen before, however what I didnt like with the new look, is how some levels are extremely dark, uncharted always looks its best when there is vibrant sun and tropical settings, the majority of UC3 is dark and slightly grittier, and there seems to be a lot of fog in play, witch can make some levels look very washed out, the dessert levels however look fantastic.

Aiming seems to be another area where naughty dog has fallen short, there is some serious dead zone issues that make aiming difficult, this should be patched soon, but its pretty annoying.

Animation seems to have taken a hit too, drake stumbles around like hes drunk, ive gotten used to it now, but seriously why he needs to touch everything around him is beyond me.

Story is pretty good, I love the new baddie, but fighting off the men in black gets old real quick, its like they are all clones, one fight scene had me wondering if they were outcasts from a matrix game, and the AI is shocking.

By now everyone probably thinks I hate the game, well I dont, but I believe the flaws should be pointed out too, it is a fun game with plenty of action, but it also feels slightly rushed in some areas, I went in with high hopes that it would be the best uncharted yet, and its not, its not bad by any means, it just doesnt live up to the hype.

"Assassins Creed = Uncharted 3"
5 stars"

My favourite thing about uncharted 3 was the all out fighting skills of the protagonist. Sneak attacks and knocking guards out was great fun, I sometimes prefer to run up and punch them instead of using my gun. Also the climbing of walls and other structures was amazing. It reminded me a lot of assassins creed, but in a modern environment.

"Defines PS3"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Uncharted 3 combines cinematics with an incredibly dynamic enivronment. It shows just what the Playstation 3 is capable of. Incredible gameplay, stunning graphics, and an awesome story line. This is a must have game for any person who owns a PS3

"The defining Playstation 3 experience"
5 stars"

I have just finished my first play through, and I'm looking forward to playing again. THIS is what gaming is all about. Drama, action, humor, heck even a little romance, it has everything! If you own a PS3, you NEED this game. It's that simple.

"Masterpiece"
5 stars"

Uncharted 3 in my opinion the best game of the series. Brilliant presentation, great sound effects and really good set pieces. The combat is not perfect but still enjoyable. Overall Uncharted 3 is the next best thing to Hollywood.

"One of the best PS3 games ever!!!!!!!!!!"

"Fantastic Game Play and Action Balance"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

This game was amazing as I felt it gave you a better balance between the action scenes and the story line. Some of the previous ones felt slighty out of balance. The puzzles are also unique and all in all the game was well rounded and balanced with great graphics.

Love the story, the game looks great on a 3DTV and amazing graphics, a must buy and one of the best PS3 games around.

""Fantastic" Isn't A Good Enough Word"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

This one's the icing on the cake if you've been following the Uncharted series for a while.

For me, the original was a bit oversold – felt too hyped and didn't deliver on the promise. #2 was much better mechanically but flawed by some pretty gruelling encounters that sucked the fun out of it towards the end.

This one's just superb – Naughty Dog have refined the art of story telling and it's a great final (-) instalment in the series. The gunplay is smooth and fun, and is now augmented with useful, fun melee combat. It never gets old yanking the pin on a grenade on an enemy's belt and kicking your opponent back into his friends. Gold.

The platforming is no longer plagued with the, “Where the heck am I supposed to jump now–” moments of #2, and the artistic direction is superb.

The story itself is fun, provided you're not too interested in historical accuracy. It's a good romp and brings back that feeling of playing an Indiana Jones movie.

Really enjoyed this. If I had one complaint, it's one that Uncharted 3 shares with other games on this platform: why can't you run in 1080p- Scaling to 720p can leave moire effects especially in the dessert sequences. Otherwise, it's brilliant.

"Awesome"
5 stars"

Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception, from start to finish, single player to multiplayer, this game sings. The characters, the graphics, the sound, the story – they’re all top notch. If you’re willing to skip Uncharted 3, be prepared to miss one of gaming’s finest moments.

"Uncharted 2 was better"
4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Sure part 3 looks great, plays great, has story, acting, like a playable movie. But dozens of deaths due to controller problems and dozens of deaths due to an insane difficulty level, well, part 2 just felt perfect. This one is kinda imbalanced. But oh well, still an awesome game. I will only cry one tear.

"How can you say "the best game ever-""
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

…well I just said it, didnt I- Is this a fair description of Nate Drakes third instalment of the Unchartered series- The moment you put this into your machine you know you are in for a full rounded, all inclusive, action packed and well written cinematic gaming experience. (What a mouthful). Seriously…turn the lights down, grab some pop corn, play this on a large screen, 3D (if youve got it), surround yourself in digital sound and hold on for what this gamer thinks is one of the most amazing games he has ever played…and even you dont get to play atleast sit down and watch someone else…You will still sit there and be amazed!!!
