Terrible Story- Check, anyone who thinks a story about a treasure hunter who is basically a super hero is good is just an action movie junkie...

I assume you apply the same level of criticism to all game narratives you encounter?
Naughty Dog drew inspration and modelled Uncharted from the get-go off action adventure films, pulp magazines and movie serials. Respective genres which have never exactly been held in regard as the birth place of award winning or critically acclaimed stories. What they do provide however, is popcorn entertainment.
Uncharted has arguably the best voice acting, great dialogue, great cut scenes, interesting characters and great pacing. It's less about the story itself, and more about how it is presented- in a very polished, easy to follow, engaging package.
I beleive when people mention Uncharted as having a great story, it's not the plot they're talking about per se, but rather the sum of all the storytelling and presentation parts combined, which works to flow well and keep gamers interested.
