    Feeling jealous listening my PS3 friends talking wonderful things about Uncharted, finally i had the chance to play it, and yes, it is true, it is one of the best games ever played. Good story with a lot of action, you can't stop playing, you won't find a boring moment letting you to quit. They made a great job with the remasterization.
    I totally recommend.

And I must said, playing is always better than watching. The gameplay is okay with not much innovate but the most shining things about Uncharted is musical, story, settings and level design and the very high quality graphic. Those things help the gameplay entertaining and making you can stop playing until you have to stop to eat, work and study. (kidding).
    I know this collection may not okay with fan because of missing multiplayer but for those whom just only need single campaign. This collection is a must have.
    Don't hear other user that lower the score below 5 or even 7. Trust me. If you are new gamer on PS4 like me, you will have a very great treat.

    Had to give this game a 10 to balance out all of the trolls giving it a poor rating for no reason.

    Probably deserves a 9 in all honesty, and that is just because I think it should've been $40 instead of $60. However, the Uncharted games are some of the best, and this is easily worth the purchase. If you haven't played them before on PS3, (hell, even if you have), you must pick this up

    Lazy cash in from last gen games. Completely mediocre of third person cover shooter, scripted and linear to the point of extreme boredom. A complete rip off of every B grade adventure movie ever made.

    Scoring this collection is difficult. Uncharted 2 and 3 are easily 9.0's. But Uncharted: Drake's Fortune really does not age all that well. It's still a 7/10, but it does negatively impact the collection's overall score. And yes, I could've split this into three reviews on each games' page, but who has the time for that? So here's a quick review for each of the games.

So here's a quick review for each of the games.

    Uncharted: Drake's Fortune
    The roughest of the three games, with a slow first half and a great second half. I really enjoyed the self contained adventure on the island, and the linear progression that really makes it feel like you're playing a movie. While the other games in the series became globe trotting, large scale adventures, there is something charming about seeing one island change so much over your play through. It really becomes a character itself. The beginning half is kinda slow, and their aren't very many memorable moments as the later games, but overall, pretty solid.

    Uncharted 2: Among Thieves
    Many fans' favorite Uncharted game (I don't get why people hate on Drake's Deception, but whatever), Uncharted 2 was the game that launched Uncharted into the stratosphere. With so many memorable moments (and puzzles. I hate these damn puzzles. They suck in all three of the games), it's hard not to recommend. The game starts in the same, tired jungle setting that you spent the entire game with in the first game, but the game quickly changes settings and brings you to many different environments. Uncharted 2 also introduces a couple new characters (Chloe and Cutter), that it swiftly abandons and never talks about again. Overall, a fun, memorable experience that ups the ante and brings Nathan Drake up to the level of Playstation icon.

    Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception
    Similar to Among Thieves in many ways fans were disappointed with the follow up to what was arguably PS3's best exclusive. I wasn't one of them. I really liked Uncharted 3. Yes, it does recycle some sections from two, but it also delves deeper then ever before into Nathan Drake's psyche. We learn more about his childhood and how he became who he is today. If Uncharted 2 took set pieces and pacing to a new level, Uncharted 3 brought story sections to a new level. Also the shipyard section **** rocks.

    You should buy this collection. You get between 30 and 40 hours of pretty great story, set pieces, and gameplay. I'm two hours into Uncharted 4, and I think you have an obligation to play the previous games in the series before even touching A Thief's End.

    I want to give it a 10/10 but I can't. There are times when I am playing Uncharted 2 when I fell that Drake looked better on the PS3 version of the game and that makes me cringe every time I watch a cut scene. But still all 3 games are amazing enough to get the platinum trophy from them each...twice. Well worth the purchase, now lets hope that the PS5 has backwards compatibility.

    Out of all the remastered collections, the Uncharted collection would seem like a pointless purchase, if you've already played them all. Yet all of Nate's adventures are worth more than one revisit, which makes this a great title to own. The updated visuals give the titles a clean look to go with newer TVs, is only an added bonus to the already great package you're getting.

    If you're new to Uncharted or you want to show off a great game to someone who'd rather watch than play the game, this is it. Uncharted is the Indiana Jones of video games and never comes off as being too similar with the latter. These three games are a MUST PLAY, without question.

    One of the reasons i finally broke down and bought a playstation was to see all the fuss about Uncharted. Yeah for once the fuss was true. Nathan Drake and his band o merry cohorts make this one of the greatest collections of games ever assembled. The remasters PS4 versions are glorious and worth the buy. Top notch story telling, action gaming and incredible visuals add up to a masterpiece.

    Plain off the bat the collection is clearly a 10/10 for the content and how well the games are even before they got remastered. For each game on its own it varies for me around 8.5. Each title has some strengths and weaknesses but all are very strong on the story and the characters in my opinion.

    I played the collection on my PS4 Pro SSD after having played the individual titles in the past and I m amazed how well they look. Some of the mechanics feel a bit outdated although at the same time they set standards for other titles. Some parts of the games rely too much on duck-n-fire tactics and masses running up to you. Besides that I didnt like the boss fights in part 1+2 much. I feel that they were especially bad designed for how good the game is. In part 3 there are specific spots that feel not well balanced but in general they got it pretty well done.

    On the other hand the game looks great and it sounds great. It has even adjustable 7.1 surround sound which is amazing if you have a good sound setup. I love the characters and the development. The story really is nice in all parts and puzzles are between very easy and getting more hard in 2 and 3. There are next to no loading or saving screens which is also amazing.

    What I find pretty awesome is that there are often no "natural breaks" where you cut off and continue tomorrow. It is just so seamless and continous that I kept going and going and I wanted to go for groceries but then I just did that one more chapter... and another because man it was so intense and you know... It is an absolute strength of the series. The weapon set feels also pretty good. Some spots strip you of weapons or give you dedicated ones which I dont like but most of the time you get a variety of each and pick what you like the most.

    After all the years I still raged on the same spots but after all the games are just insanely good and characters are outstandingly well made. The collection + 4 + Lost Legacy will be one of my most enjoyed farewells to the PS4 generation and I can absolutely recommend it.

The Uncharted series is fantastic and I seriously recommend it to everyone who has a PS4 as it is easily something everyone will enjoy. Honestly anyone who gives this less than a 9 is straight up lying and doing it purely because of trolling/saltiness.

Ahora una cosa es la historia, y otra cosa el gameplay, para mi el gameplay cumple pero no es la octava maravilla del mundo, incluso se me hace que se mantiene casi igual a lo largo de las 3 entregas. Gráficamente es muy bueno, incluso el 3 para estas fechas se me hace que se ven aun bastante bien. Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection es un gran bundle para los amantes de la aventura y yo creo que en algún momento de tu vida deberías probar, al menos uno, te lo dice alguien que viene de un ecosistema Xbox.

Up to try any genre of games and sometimes I find something new that I didn't think I'd like. I own a PC (built by me), Xbox One X, Xbox Series X, PS3, PS4, PS5, and a Switch. I prefer Playstation due to their focus on narrative games. For scoring, I’ll be using the Gameinformer review scale and of coursed influenced by my personal opinions.

    (8)Very Good. Innovative, but perhaps not the right choice for everyone. This score indicates that there are many good things to be had, but arguably so.

    I went through Uncharted 1-3 before the release of Uncharted 4 all at once and glad I did because it helped me appreciate the Character building between the characters. If I hadn’t played through the old games, I don’t think I would have enjoyed Uncharted 4 as much as I did. These are solid games but I don’t think they deserve as much praise as they got. If this was more story, exploration, and puzzle focused it would have been better. Just the endless waves of enemies made it dull and makes it kind of unbelievable. You’re just competing to find the treasure from another group of treasure hunters with money. Set-pieces and were innovated ideas at the time.

    I came into this collection as Uncharted virgin and I come out as a fan of the series.

    The amount of work Bluepoint has done is unbelievable, all three games look stunning even by today's standards, especially UC3 which rivals most games released this year, while maintaining 60fps most of the time which is very impressive. The entire series has some of the most gorgeous locations I've ever experienced in gaming, you go from one beautiful area to the next, and best of all you get to parkour all over it!

    The bread and butter of the series is third person shooting, puzzles and epic set pieces and my God are the set pieces epic, a few in particular left me speechless as I honestly couldn't believe how good they were, you just don't get anything like this from any other game (bar Tomb Raider which to be fair has it's own share of amazing set pieces, but at a much less stable frame rate and not quite at the level of the best the Uncharted series has to offer). As someone with a fear of heights some of the areas left me sweating bullets, the way the camera pans out at times makes everything feel so grandiose.

    There are issues though, the combat feels a bit wonky at times with bullets not registering properly, especially headshots when the enemy is behind cover and the melee combat feels very underwhelming compared to newer titles like Mad Max which totally nailed it. My biggest gripe was the difficulty though, I always tend to play my games on normal so I get just enough challenge to keep it interesting without so much so that it gets frustrating but all three games fall a little short on this, they start off too easy and end up too hard in parts, unless you're an Uncharted vet you will die, often. I would have liked to see the game start a little harder but end a little easier, I would have enjoyed the series more had a few areas been toned a little.

    Overall all three games are very good and well worth the purchase, especially if you've never played them on PS4. This collection for me is a high 8, it could have easily pushed itself to a 9 which is what I gave The Last of Us which to me was near perfection and also made by Naughty Dog.

    This game was ok. Decent story. But I guess Im not a huge fan of linear games. Especially if those games require specific dexterity climbing/jumping/running tasks. Whats the point of that??? Wish it was more like Assassins Creed.

    This is some of the best game play you will ever get. Its not complicated, its full of action and the story is fantastic. The characters are well voice acted and you will care for them all.
    The world has so much detail and the graphics are sweet.
    I've always been one for collectibles and this game delivers that in a way that you want to collect them and dont lose interest.
    In terms of longevity, they are the perfect length. The chapters don't drag out and keep you engaged all the way through. I'm up to Uncharted 2 out of the trilogy and I can see what they mean by it being the pinnacle and I cant wait to play 3 after all the positive reviews.

    Do yourselves a favor and pick this up. I cant speak on behalf of people who played the originals extensively, but if you want to see what all the hype was about. Get it. 3 games for the cost of 1 with flawless remastering is a must.

    10/10 would buy more Naughty Dog games.

    if you own them all on the play station 3 there isn't much value for money here...but for those who never played any of them or for those who are missing a chapter in the story like i was, then this is a must for PS owners...if it were cheaper and had multiplayer it be alot easier to recommend...the price will drop quickly so there's no issues with waiting

The only complaint I have is one that returns from the original release of Drake's Fortune. The controls when platforming seem just a bit off. But that is only in the first game. It is fixed in the 2nd and 3rd entries. Expand

    I've owned a PS3 since 2012, but criminally, I never owned an Uncharted game. Then, around a month ago, I picked up a PS4 that came bundled with Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection.

    The games are all amazing - the story, the graphics, the shooting, the characters... I was trying to think of complaints for this review, and honestly, I don't think I have any. I haven't had this much fun with a game in years, and I play a lot of games. If they were selling one of these games at this price I'd absolutely recommend it, but you get three, plus the beta to the multiplayer for Uncharted 4! (I haven't played the beta yet, as I don't have PS Plus, but still, free stuff.) I've read a lot of reviews on this site in my time, and I know some people hand out a lot of 10/10s to games they enjoyed. Nothing wrong with that, but I'm a bit harsher when it comes to reviewing. As of now, I've never given anything a 10/10, but this collection deserves that prestigious score. I don't think I could be any happier with this, and I'd recommend it to anybody ever.

    I truly wish they would release first three games on PC. Why would they release 4th one, if most PC players have never played first three? 1 was kind of meh, but 2 and 3 were amazing. I played 2 with PS3 emulator with keyboard and mouse and it works perfectly. I don't understand why they wont release official PC version of 2 and 3, so i wouldn't have to use emulator. They would make so much money.

    Those games didn't age well. In all of those 3 games the gameplay fell outdated, and you will realize you just played better mechanism elsewhere.

    Uncharted 1 is really hard to swallow these days. The game has some good stuff in its story, but the game is ruined by bad pacing: some easy-going platform gameplay, intercalary by never ending boring gun fights with pretty bad gameplay.

    Uncharted 2 and 3 are improvements, but all of those games are linear and feature the same "find the path" core gameplay. The escalation gameplay is not as fluid as in Assassins Creed's game or like Shadows of Mordor. Its impossible to not get frustrated with stealth mechanism, If you played MGSV or any AC's game. Gunplay is improved but not enough to hide the age of those games. Hard fights is just bad. Uncharted 3 feature parhaps the most boring oppening act of any AAA game released in past 10 years.

    Story is not particulary special. Nathan is the typical guy who is not looking for trouble, but the trouble always find him, and he keeps making Joker while his life is in danger. While many people believe Uncharted and Nathan were inspires by Indiana Jones movies and Harrison Ford, the whole thing end up sounding more like The Mummy and Brendan Fraser.

    In general, they're extremely repetitive - kept expecting a change of pace in Drake's Fortune that never came about, only to realise the whole trilogy would follow the thread.

    Story is mere excuse for the underwhelmingly basic gameplay: cover - shoot - cover - climb - repeat (and some scripted sequences here and there). As plain background, the plot is anything you would watch in a generic treasure-hunt movie from the 00's. Saving graces would be the nicely acted cutscenes and some of the dialogue, but even that with characters which in my opinion are annoying and unlikable (yes, talking about a PlayStation icon).

    Most people praise Among Thieves as the best of the bunch, but it's the one that almost made me give up on the whole thing. Inexcusably long (each twentieth-something chapter that started made me sigh "seriously??"). Actually enjoyed Drake's Deception more for added variety in set pieces and presentation, and also some more investment in the storytelling department.

    This is the kind of criticism I think these games deserve, in spite of the universal acclaim traditional to the franchise. Recommended only to check some boxes on the backlog - that is, if you haven't played them before and actually plan to.

    Uncharted aren't perfect games, there shooting mechanic leaves a lot to be desired, the cover system needs some work before 4 comes out. What they do and do well though is tell stories and Drake is an excellent character, Sully a great side kick and unusually for me I actually buy into them and carew about them. Naughty Dog has a special ability to make the pacing of their games work, to make their characters interesting and this is no different.

    Graphically Uncharted is a massive step up, you will see less and less improvement in 2 and 3 but there are still excellent improvements, seems to be some tweaks in controls as well. One thing I am less happy with is Normal at least seems to be a lot easer than previously.

    The worst thing about this game is other than Batman Arkham Knight, the Uncharted Collection and Gears of War Ultimate Edition are the best games on this generation.

    Like with most game remasterings, this is a must for anyone who hasn't played the original versions, and still provides good reasons to play these 3 great games again.

It seems the people who gave this collection negatives either a) didn't like the games to begin with, b) are butthurt that there's no multiplayer for Uncharted 2&3, or c) think collections like this are just lazy cash grabs. So let me try to explain why this collection is worth buying:

    Thankfully, Bluepoint Games (who are one of the best for this sort of thing) has handled this remaster very well. Despite everyone saying the graphics look dated when compared to the best offered today, I think all the games still look quite nice. The games look crisp and clear at 1080p and the various other visual improvements make the games look a lot less dated. Even the screen tearing is gone.

    The games also run at 60fps (even during cutscenes) and for the most part are smooth with only a rare hiccup in framerate every now and then. The option to turn off or adjust motion blur is also a welcome addition. The controls (especially the aiming) are smoother and using the PS4 controller is definitely an improvement over the PS3 controller.

    Additional gameplay modes include a speed run mode and 2 extra difficulty settings (one very easy and one very hard). Like with GoW3 remastered, a photo mode is included and with the PS4's SHARE feature, people who love taking screenshots should love playing through these games.

    Now for one of the biggest complaints people have; the lack of multiplayer. Personally, I've never played Uncharted's multiplayer but I have heard very good things about it and while that is disappointing that it isn't included, it might have been for the best. I've read that remastering is a lot harder than it seems so if Bluepoint was able to focus more on getting the single player campaigns looking, running, and playing as well as they do, I think it was worth it. With collections, you really don't want them to spread themselves out too thin, right? Quality over quantity, people. Also, when Uncharted 4 comes around, that will probably have the same multiplayer anyway that's just as good or even better.

    So at the risk of sounding even more like I'm some PR guy from Sony or Bluepoint, let me just say that this is one of the better remastered collections we've gotten and I'm glad I have a good excuse to play the Uncharted games again. This one of my favourite series of all time and anyone who has never played these games before should definitely check them out now. I could also go on about why I, unlike so many other people on Metacritic, actually support re-releasing games but I think I've already written too much so again, don't listen to the haters on here, this is a good collection.

    - Despite all the claims to the contrary, the characters and stories throughout all three games feel incredibly weak. Drake's Fortune literally doesn't have an interesting/nuanced character interaction until the last 2 minutes before the ending credits. A lot of the relationships are simply told to the player, having taken place between games, rather than organically evolving on screen for the player to experience.
    - Despite improving on each installment, the combat is a massive downfall of all three games, never succeeding at feeling like a strong or compelling third-person shooter, but taking up so much of the gameplay time that such a weak showing cannot go unacknowledged.

Playing through for the first time back when they came out, there was nothing else like this - smooth playing fun, with massive set-pieces and witty banter - but I can't say that on reflection, and when played back-to-back, the games remain quite so sterling.

    The first is a novel idea but functionally poor in almost every respect. The second game improves on the core design aspects, but once the veil of nostalgia is removed, it becomes obvious that it's a hodge-podge of lazy puzzles, inconsistent rules, and massive difficulty spikes. Enemies take between one and a dozen shots to kill depending on when the game decides it wants to change things, and there are at least half a dozen zones you'll get stuck reloading because of an influx of obscene one-shot kill enemies. The third game is a carbon copy of the second, but in the desert, with all the same problems.

    Taking out the first-time thrill and adding a little age to the mix strips the series of its lustre. These games deserve an elevated place in history, and these remasters are of exceptional quality, but they offer diminishing returns on replaying.

Naughty Dog did us all a huge favor by implementing the U2 controls into the other games. No more sixaxis grenade arc!!! The set pieces in U2 can't be beat and the melee combat in U3 is a blast to play with. Looking forward to the final installment next year.

    As for the games themselves, the gunplay is satisfying and the stories in each individual title will have you hooked and wanting to see what happens next. The only minor points that stop this being a 10 is that the puzzles can be quite punishing on beginners, as I found my self occasionally waiting for a hints to pop up to help me and the are a few difficulty spikes out of no-where that can really frustrate you.

The gameplay does get repetitive but in general it is fun and I enjoyed the storytelling and historical/geographical parts of the game.

    Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection is a must have for any PS4 owner, regardless of whether they had played the originals on PS3.

    It consists of the first 3 Uncharted games, starring Nathan Drake and a cast of very likeable supporting characters such as Helena and Sully. While the first game is the weaker of the trilogy, the other 2 are really great, especially Uncharted 2 (though I prefer Uncharted 3 for its expanded melee system and more mature story). These games are self-contained stories, there is no lore you have to keep up with, there is no grand mystery building up to the final game, so you can freely choose any of them to play and you won't have missed a thing.

    Gameplay focuses on cover-based shooting, platforming, fist fights, treasure hunting along with many chases and over-the-top set-pieces that will absolutely WOW you. Music production is great, but the voice actors steal the show. This series launched Nathan Drake's voice actor Nolan North into stardom. Graphics are very pleasing to the eye, being a mix of realism and a bit of cartoon style. These games run at locked 60 fps and display at 1080p on PS4, with all of the assets having been re-worked by remaster specialists Bluepoint Studio. Graphics have become synonymous with Uncharted but then again, the whole group of characters along with protagonist Nathan Drake are what makes the series stand out.

    The only complaint I have from the Nathan Drake Collection is the removal of the online modes of Uncharted 2 and 3. These were great fun on PS3 and it's a disappointment they weren't included in the disc due to space constraints (or Sony want to shut Uncharted 2/3 servers down at some point). One Uncharted 2 map has been remastered and included for free in Uncharted 4's online mode as fan service. That's better than nothing, but still the missing online modes should be rescued one way or another.

    I strongly recommend this collection to any gamer who likes story-based action adventure games with high production values and strong characters.

    Gave me the chance to play what became my favorite franchise of all time, Uncharted 2: Among Thieves is the best , so good (9.4/10), Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception still looks really good (9.3/10), the only one that I didn't like was the first Uncharted.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Awesome game-play and AI, although each one is a bit repetitive. Other than the details and guns available, the story followed the same general plot line for each of them. Still a great game and a worthy buy for sure. Expand

    best game Feeling jealous listening my PS3 friends talking wonderful things about Uncharted, finally i had the chance to play it, and yes, it is true, it is one of the best games ever played. Good story with a lot of action, you can't stop playing, you won't find a boring moment letting you to quit. They made a great job with the remasterization.
    I totally recommend.

    simply amazing everything that made us fall in love with uncharted was bought to the PS4. The game is fantastic all 3 are smooth and the graphics are crisp while the controls are even better than they were on PS3. Being able to relive the adventure of Uncharted again is fantastic.

    I’m not sure I’ve ever understood the hype for these games.

    I played “Drake’s Fortune” a year after it came out and enjoyed it. It was one of the first games I played on my PS3 and at the time I didn’t ask a lot from games.

    I’m not sure I’ve ever understood the hype for these games.

    I played “Drake’s Fortune” a year after it came out and enjoyed it. It was one of the first games I played on my PS3 and at the time I didn’t ask a lot from games. It did more or less what it was supposed to do, entertain me.

    It wasn’t until three years ago that I got around to playing “Among Thieves.” Again, at the time I didn’t have a problem with the gameplay (some of the set pieces were pretty cool), but the “designed” feel that all of the areas had was a distraction. The big problem I had with it, though, was the story. The acting was good and the dialogue was mostly decent with a few highlights, but the plot was ludicrous and predictable.

    It was also around this time that I was become weary of the “smarmy but charming **** shtick that has steadily become the go-to personality for leading characters in video game and most popular fiction. Drake is just another in a long line of that type of character, and it’s a trope that I don’t enjoy. It was after playing the second game that I lost interest in the franchise.

    With the release of “The Nathan Drake Collection,” I finally drudged up enough interest to finally play “Drake’s Deception” and luckily a local Redbox had a copy. The first thing I noticed about the game was how poor the graphics were. Even with it being a game originally from 2011, it looked very poor. Textures weren’t very detailed, the color palette was questionable (especially in the first few chapters) and overall the world felt lifeless, like a cheaply made animated film. There were not an abundance of filters or particles, leaving the environments looking empty and barren.

    Just like the other games in the series, the story is cartoonish and ill-conceived (the young Nate sequence in particular), but more than ever it’s clear that the set pieces were designed first, with the narrative crafted to fit around them (like a Michael Bay movie). That leads to a very confused plot, with characters popping in and out of the story with very little rhyme or reason. It also doesn’t help that there is almost no attempt to flesh out the villains and what their goals are.

    The gameplay is yet another element that feels like an afterthought. The combat is tedious, with a difficulty spike in later chapters that is beyond irritating. Climbing still has some bugs, puzzle solving is very simple (almost spoon-fed) and the escape sequences lack any sense of drama or tension.

    So after all of that, I suppose one could get the sense that I’m not a fan of this franchise. Because I’m not. I honestly do not understand why this series is so acclaimed or beloved (but then, I could say the same thing about Indiana Jones). Bad writing, boring gameplay and average graphics add up to a subpar experience in my book. The only reason why I’m not rating this collection even lower is because I enjoyed the music, some of the dialogue got a laugh or two out of me and some of the set pieces were fun, even if they are completely absurd.

    Awesome value and these games have held up really well. If you have a ps4 and haven't played this series it's a must buy imo. I hope uncharted 4 keeps up the quality

    Quite simply in the search for gaming 'Value' the Uncharted collection is 10 out of 10. I would have liked to see the handling for the shooting mechanics tweaked but that's being picky as Uncharted always will and should be about traversing amazing landscapes and enviroments.

    I've only ever finished the first Uncharted on the PS3. Since my PS4 has been collecting dust since finishing The Last of Us Remastered I figure this is a good time to revisit and play the entire Uncharted series in it's visual glory. So far so good, I forgot how much fun the game and its environment is. Not as good as Tomb Raider or TLoU but it will do.

    This is truly the most overrated collection of games. If you're considering getting a PS4 just for this as some would suggest, do not do it. You can play Rise of the Tomb Raider on Xbox One right now and it is a MUCH better game than any of these. Save yourself the cash.

    I am a huge Naughty Dog fan with the old Crash bandicoot to the Famous and amazing game The Last of Us. This game is a bit of a cash grab but it doesn't mean its not worth every penny for the adventure you are gonna have with this collection.

    Pros-
    ~The game includes three of the Original Trilogy.
    ~All three were remastered in it's glorified form.
    ~Gameplay is more responsive and fluid.
    ~It's Uncharted. Either you will really love it or you'll just like it.

    Cons-
    ~No multiplayer which I don't really understand but I'm not too bummed out since the games were mostly for its Campaign. Doesn't exclude the fact that the collection feels a bit of a cash grab.
    ~Pricing is a bit high as I believe it should be at least $50 or $40. You'd make more if you by selling more for a reasonable price
    ~Uncharted Drakes Fortune does look good but its nostalgia good as it doesn't look that up to date but it still has that " My goodness! Imagine if I was back around 2007 when this game came out. It looks really damn good! " charm to it if you know what I mean.

    I got it because I love Uncharted and my god Uncharted 3 is now so playable in its 60 fps that it's so good. I swear to most people that they will love this game.

    I would give this a 10 if the textures were higher res. The normal map and bump maps have been up res and so have many of the polys but not a lot of the textures. The first 2 games look great but the third looks the same but 60fps and 1080. Its very hard to tell WHAT was upgraded and what is just up scaled to 1080 and overall it just feels very much as I remember.

    Having played only Uncharted 3 last generation, I must say this is a welcome addition to the PS4 lineup. I thoroughly enjoyed UC3 and really wanted to play the other two games but unfortunately I had to sell my PS3 to get a PS4. Now after playing Uncharted 2 for a while, it is clear to me why it was GOTY. One of the best gaming franchises out there. Must buy for those who have yet to try it.

    Uncharted: TNDC is one for the ages. Yes, the gameplay and visual wow-factor have faded in a few spots, but the inimitable charm of Nate and co., plus some of the best story-telling in gaming, make this a must-have. [Christmas 2015, p71]
