    It's more than just the best entry in an outstanding series though - it epitomises the very reason many of us play video games. And that's its greatest achievement.

    The visuals are breathtaking, the story is fascinating and the gameplay is never-ending. Uncharted 3 is like a fast-paced locomotive that cannot be stopped. The expectations were high, but Naughty Dog met them and even added an action-oriented frantic multiplayer. This third title clearly honours its parents, but as a child it does tricks with its pulsing vigour.

    Words almost can't describe a game that nears perfection. And that is exactly what Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception does.

    Uncharted is still an incredible cinematic experience, but its own issues remain the same: limited interactivity, often too linear. Despite this, it's still one of the best adventure titles of the year, one you shouldn't miss. Multiplayer is just an add-on, but a very well crafted one.

    It's an amazing game with an engrossing singleplayer campaign and a complex multiplayer mode that allows for months of fun. But don't expect a massive quality leap from Uncharted 2.

    Naughty Dog once again delivers a unique cinematic experience that has no equal. With superb graphics, unbelievable set-pieces, superb story telling and great characters, Uncharted 3 is a genre-defining game. Next time though, we'd like to see better shooting mechanics.

    Two years after Thieves, Uncharted's gameplay mechanics and conventions are no longer dated; they're borderline archaic.

Además de eso, gráficos maravillosos, personajes antipáticos y simpáticos y con un villano que puede igualar el nivel de ambición de Zoran Lazarevich (villano de la entrega anterior). Sin otras palabras, fantástico; frenética diversión.… Expand

    1) Offline solo multiplayer against bots. I would be cool to play team deathmatch against bots in offline mode. Or play co-op solo play without need to make it splitscreen.
    If that solo play and offline multiplayer against bots with friendly bots available would have been available then this would have been a game of the century (up to this day, until better game comes).
    2) Some annoying issues when collection rare treasures, they are RARE, but this is not so much of an issue. Just makes the feeling of accomplishment better, when that last piece of treasure in some set finally drops.

    This game is excellent. Just don't buy the DLC map packs if you are not very good with shooters, it will ruin your game experience, because you would be then put always against high level players.    … Expand

    Just like the first game this is a below average cover shooter disguised as adventure game just cause it throws a few half assed puzzles here and there. It has got some cinematic appeal to it but not in the level of a Metal Gear or Mass Effect, and unless you can endure below average shooting as core gameplay for almost the entire playtime, you're probably not gonna want to finish this dull piece of crap and move on to something else. It is honestly an awful game.    … Expand
