Uncharted: Drake's Fortune (2007 Video Game)
8/10
A good start to a great series
16 June 2011
Jak and Daxter for the Play Station 2 was a very big part of my childhood. So when I did the transition to Play Station 3 I wanted to try Naughty Dog's latest series for the next gen consoles.

The basic story behind the game is this; You are Nathan Drake, treasure hunter extraordinare and self proclaimed last living relative to Sir Francis Drake. With your friend and mentor Victor Sullivan you search for the lost tomb of Drake only to find that he had faked his death and gone on a secret expedition to go after ElDorado, the lost city of gold. Now you have to retrace Sir Drake's steps while avoiding greedy pirates, mercenaries, and other dangers while trying to find the treasure of a lifetime.

For all its faults, Uncharted: Drake's Fortune is a very fun game to play. The climbing and cover controls take some time to get fully used to and some enemies seem to take forever to kill but the story is very well written, the graphics are gorgeous, and the main characters themselves are all relatable and likable. If you want to jump into the Uncharted series before the third one comes out, then there's no time like the present.
