Question for all the fanboys: Is it better to play Uncharted 1 before 2 or is it not so important? In other words, is it worth waiting to play 2 in order to play 1 first?

I love Drake's Fortune, but I don't think it's 100% essential to play it before Uncharted 2.  Uncharted 2 gives you enough that you can easily figure out who everyone is, plus on PSN there's the prequel motion comic that actually has a summary of Drake's Fortune in it, so that may help serve as a refresher.  IGN has part of it here

 

The only downside to playing Uncharted 2 first is that it will make take away from the experience of playing Uncharted 1 because it's so much better.

Ooooooo--

That's unfathomable to me that someone would think 1 is better than 2.  They're both excellent games, but I felt that Uncharted 2 was in a category of its own.  I do however think it's funny that before Uncharted 2 came out, everyone thought the first one was greatest thing since sliced bread.  Now a lot of people seem to be renouncing it because 2 is so good. 

Guys, you misunderstood me :)

Uncharted 2 is miles ahead of Uncharted 1.  I said the downside to Uncharted 2 is that it takes away from how great a game Uncharted: Drake's Fortune is.  If you were to play Uncharted: Drake's fortune for the first time after playing Uncharted 2, you would be underwhelemed, which is a shame.

Uncharted 2 is the better game.  Sorry if I didn't make that clear.
