    The peak of Uncharted series. Nothing before or after this one compares. Great graphics, mechanics and most of all story. That's the game worth playing multiple times discovering all it's little secrets.

    While not quite as spectacular as Uncharted 2, Drake's Deception is still one heck of a rollercoaster filled with epic cinematic moments, fulfilling puzzles, and exhilarating action.

    Another masterpiece from Naughty dog the game is just wonderful characters you know and love are back and you get to know Nathan Drake better which is great those type of games define the meaning of "game"
    and "experience" hats off to Naughty dog for creating story telling at it's best.

    While not as good as Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, the game is still fantastic. This game does a good job with providing a healthy mixture of parkour and shooting elements. But the best part of the game is the art direction. There are varied, stunning landscapes that really immerse the player. The camera angles are stunning and make it feel like a movie. Truly a great game.

    The king of puzzle games.It's full of action , parkour, puzzles and a great story. The characters are strong and Nate is more badass than ever.The game is more mature, has a lot of weapons. I highly recommend it to everyone

    Вау моменты просто отличны. Геймплей со второй части пожалуй даже можно сказать значительно подтянули. Перестрелки постоянно в разных условиях, это оочень приятно)
    В общем, как обычно шедевр :)

    The game begins two years after the previous game, Drake and Sully enter a pub in London to make a deal with a man named Talbot. He is looking to buy Nate’s ring belonging to his ancestor Sir Francis Drake. A fight starts after Nate and sully accused Talbot of giving them counterfeit money for the ring. Outside the Pub Nate and Sully are shot by Katherine Marlowe after being subdued byThe game begins two years after the previous game, Drake and Sully enter a pub in London to make a deal with a man named Talbot. He is looking to buy Nate’s ring belonging to his ancestor Sir Francis Drake. A fight starts after Nate and sully accused Talbot of giving them counterfeit money for the ring. Outside the Pub Nate and Sully are shot by Katherine Marlowe after being subdued by Charlie Cutter, Talbot’s cohort.
    A flashback brings back the player 20 years before the pub fight where find a 15 years old Nathan Drake exploring a museum in Cartagena, Colombia in search of Sir Francis Drake’s ring. Nate is caught by Marlowe who is also looking for the ring and she was confronted to Nathan who was able to steal the ring already. Marlowe is threatening Nathan to give her the ring using a gun but a young Sully comes to the rescue and gives Nathan the opportunity to escape. Nate is caught by Marlowe’s henchman on a rooftop, but Sully arrives just in time to rescue Nate from the agents and take the boy on as a protégé.

    When the flashback is over, the player returns to present times where we see that the meeting was an elaborate plan set up by Nate and Sully to try and find Marlowe. They followed Marlowe’s car to an underground library where they manage to retrieve T.E. Lawrence’s note book and a Map showing Francis secret travels to Arabia where he was asked by Queen Elizabeth to search for the lost city of Ubar.

    Gameplay

    In the game the player controls Nathan Drake, the animation of Nathan is very well done since he can react to a number of different circumstances according to his surroundings and is able to walk, run, jump, sprint, climb and can scale narrow ledges as well as perform acrobatics actions. Drake has the ability to uses every weapons in the game but he can only carry two fire-arms, one single handed, one two handed and 4 grenades. Drake can cover behind wall and use his aimed or blind-fire to kill enemies near him. Sneaking is also part of the game, sometimes the player has the opportunity the take out his opponent without alerting them and kill them with one blow. Some areas of the game will require the player to solve puzzles with the use of drake’s journal, which will provide clues but no answers to help solve them.

    There is also a multiplayer mode in Uncharted 3 similar to the second game which includes s competitive and a cooperative play mode.

    Conclusion

    I have to say I am not surprised of the goodness of this game, I played the second one and I just loved it. This game has it all, puzzle, gunfights, adventure, good story, good graphics, good gameplay, I could go on but the list would take a few pages. This game is a GameXplicit must have, well done Naughty Dog!

    Este jogo é incrível! Eu recebi e ainda não posso parar de jogar. Os gráficos são tão detalhadas para um game e é desafiador, mas divertido e terá que jogar por horas! A história é complexa e profundamente pensado. O melhor jogo que eu já joguei de forma

    Stunning game once again from Naughty Dog. The MP was a big improvement from uncharted 2. The campaign had its fair share of hiccups compared to Uncharted 2 but was still miles better than other games on the market.

    Definitely the game where I put the most hours into in my entire life. The story was good but not as great as uncharted 2. Graphics, voice acting and soundtrack are all outstanding. The gameplay is almost the same but feels slightly fluid, but the gunplay feels a bit stiff. The best part would be the multiplayer aspect. The multiplayer and co-op are LEGENDARY!

This proved that Naughty Dog are capable at making fantastic multiplayer games too. Its sad that the only servers ahave closed and getting a remaster of this multiplayer would be a miracle.… Expand

    Naughty Dog delivers yet another action-packed adventure of unparalleled proportions. Uncharted 3 isn't as good as Uncharted 2, but is defeated only by a tiny bit. The tight gun play is back.

    Uncharted 3 is the simplest and boring part of a series. Reason for that same as well as Uncharted: The Lost Legacy - key employees of Naughty Dog were occupied with other project. And it is very much felt from first minutes. The plot is fragmentary, a lot of things move as is, without preliminary history. The 3rd part a big step backwards, in comparison with an improbable 2nd part. HereUncharted 3 is the simplest and boring part of a series.

Here only 1 new thing - abrupt level with the falling plane in the desert. In 2 parts of such episodes there was 3-4. Still not bad told about Drake's history in the childhood. And all the rest already was, and there passed 2 years after release 2 parts. Yes it is still Uncharted, and therefore an adventure game, not having analogs. And the 3rd part it is possible to forgive only because people who had to do it worked on Last of Us. As for a remaster for PS4, it turned out the most insignificant, owing to age of a game.… Expand

    This game pushes the boundaries for what video games can be just like its predecessor. Fast paced, action packed, third person combat with dynamic set pieces, an epic soundtrack. Truly feels like a Hollywood blockbuster. Worth playing hundreds of times. Never gets old. Just EPIC!

It out does Uncharted 2 by a mile, the story is great and the gameplay has been improved yet again, the set pieces in this game are amazing and the multiplayer mode is a lot better than before. This game is a masterpiece 10/10 any day!

    The characterisations by the actors is second to none and even though this tall-tale takes you to fantastical places and events, the script is never once unbelievable. You never feel like an outsider. If anything, you'll feel right at home, ensconced in the constant drama of this loveable cast of returning reprobates and reprehensible villains. [Dec 2011, p60]

    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.

    Only a few camera troubles stopped us from giving Drake's Deception the highest rating. Uncharted 3 is without doubt the best PS3 exclusive game of this year. [Dec 2011]
