Uncharted 2 made me a fan of the series not only for it's characters but for the fact it has a story line that is worth your while.
As soon as you pop in the game you know that you are about to go on an wild adventure. That's what appeal to me about the Uncharted series is you never know what comes next plus you will be rewarded through the game. Now being that I played the second game before getting the first one I didn't know exactly much in terms how these characters know each other however now that I had played this game it all make sense.
Uncharted: Drake's Fortune is center around treasure hunter Nathan Drake (Voiced by Nolan North) along with Elena Fisher (Voiced by Emily Rose) and Victor "Sully" Sullivan (Voiced by Richard McGonagle). Nathan Drake is quite the protagonist as he has a passion for finding treasure and can hold his own in a fight. Elena is a reporter but she also proves to be a clever girl in this game while Sully is Drake's good friend and mentor he also is a wise character
The games three villains are Gabriel Roman (Voiced by Simon Templeman) Atoq Navarro (Voiced by Robin Atkin Downes) Eddy Raja (Voiced by James Sie)
Now the game has action through as well as you must collect treasure in the game just have to look hard enough. Also the game is full of weapons and it important to stay ready for combat because you never know when a shoot out will take place
As for the story itself from the moment you start playing you know you are about to be in for a interesting story as it starts off that way as well.
What's also cool about the Uncharted Series is the voice actors actually motion capture the characters they voice which is a very smart idea on the game's part because watching this game is like watching a movie they actually are acting out along with voicing the characters to give them more real depth to them which deserves a medal on it own part.
The game's graphics showcase how the PS3 is meant to show off some of the most beautiful graphics in video game history and Uncharted is one of those titles that has every attention to detail as the Character models are really well done to give them more a real look thanks to Motion capture from the cast. The level designs are really amazing it just makes you want to take the time to look at how superb the game looks.
The story in the game is another good factor to the game as it keeps your interesting from the start as well as twist and turns you won't see coming as well as the writing really helps the vibe of the game they did a very good job with the writing in this game with some creative lines and story telling.
The voice acting is top notch you can tell in their performances that they loved playing these characters Nolan, Emily, Richard and everyone just brought their characters to the dance with their performances.
Game play is simple put fun as you are just rewarded for playing.
However the game does have a few problems mostly the puzzles can always make you go insane if you don't do it right testing your gaming skills and the enemies always keep you on the ropes you better be prepare for a shoot out at all cost.
Now there are some nice rewards to be unlocked as you will get art work, cut scenes from the game, making of the game as well as behind the scenes of how the cast of Uncharted making the scenes
Seriously if you haven't given the Uncharted series a try go on it's not too late to enjoy such a fun and interesting series
With great graphics, great characters, story driven game play and a game that just always makes you wonder what comes next you will be in for a good time
I give Uncharted: Drake's Fortune an 9 out of 10
