More-or-less, yes. There was a vita game that was fine. It was a prequel but not really relevant. And then Lost Legacy which has Chloe and Nadine. Which was great, but not relevant to the arc of Nathan Drake.
Having never played an Uncharted game, I might have to take advantage of that.
I think youāll dig the series a lot.
Uncharted 1 is great but hasnāt aged well. Mainly enemies being bullet sponges.
Uncharted 2 is considered one of the greatest PlayStation games of all time.
Uncharted 3 is the weakest of the series due to how incredibly disjointed it feels. Especially towards the end. The disjointedness was due to backstage politicking at Sony and naughty dog though. Itās still an amazing title though.
Uncharted 4 has painfully slow start but once it picks up itās all worth it and is an amazing end to an amazing series
Itās that an archaeology joke?
Unintentional but yes.
I love Uncharted so much because to me itās what I always wanted Indiana Jones to be.
Uncharted 2 is a damn near masterpiece. Incredible characters, voice acting and writing with insanely fun shooting galleries and incredibly engaging puzzle platforming. Some of the best visuals and most exciting set pieces Iāve ever seen, even today.
The collection version of 2 pretty much improves upon perfection, somehow. They re worked the shooting and cover mechanics into something MAGICAL. If you play one single UC game, play that one @chadouken.
I consider Uncharted 2 of the of the best games of the last generation and the best of the series imo.

Iād put 4 before 3, but yeah, totally agree otherwise.
I may be in the minority but I felt that 4 had too much platforming/exploration compared to action.
It starts off a bit slow too.
Though the story/character stuff is better in 4 imo.
Iām the only person I know that thinks highly of Uncharted 3. Admittedly Iām heavily bias towards that game as thereās a big focus on Sully and heās my favorite character in the series.
Iām gonna go ahead and add the Uncharted games to my library. Iāve always thought those games looked pretty cool, just never got the opportunity to play them.
FFVIIR- after seeing universal praise here, I want to get the game, but itās not available for shipping from Best Buy or Target. And Amazon only has it available through secondhand sellers for $110, unless I get the deluxe edition for $80.
I loved Uncharted 3. I didnāt share a lot of the pessimism people had for that game.
Your post sums up exactly how I felt about the series.
Hmmm, now I need to play Lost Legacy. My brother just finished it and said it was solid. The thing about all of those games is I like the story, but donāt really want to play them again.
This was my thought about a lot of the 4th game.
Did anyone really go all stealth. I usually pick off those at better vantage points and then just start shooting everyone else.
I do too. But even among its fans a lot of people consider it the weakest, which I also agree with. As I mentioned though itās of no fault of the games. It was all the well documented back stage BS that caused UC3 to have so many issues.
2 and 3 are also crucial points in a lot main characters relationships.
I love all my UC games equally.
Not a big fan of ALL the multiplayer trophies included in UC 2 and 3 though
The multiplayer modes were always fun as fuck tho. It actually seemed like they put thought into the maps and modes instead of just being a tacked on thing.
The MP in Uncharted 4 is honestly incredible. The way you can grapple hook to ledges and climb pretty much anything amounts to some hilarious shootouts.
I didnāt even know Uncharted had multiplayer until 3. I never played it though. Iām a grandpa who hates online play.
I remember all the hackers roaming around in UC 2ās multiplayer. From the guys who would have infinite rocket launchers to the āghostā type (players who would kill you despite always appearing dead on screen)
Yes. It is a hybrid of the ATB so you are supposed to switch.
If the AI was too good I donāt think the game would be as much of a challenge. And honestly I find the game more engaging when you switch back and forth. Any time youāre doing abilities or spells for example you arenāt able to do anything anyway so you can switch to another character to help build ATB faster since I active characters build it a lot slower. Youāll get a lot more turns overall that way
