It follows the typical Sony strategy: Jack of all trades, master of none. You can't put it in one genre, because it incorporates many different things. Looking at its individual parts, it can't seriouly compete with games that have a more focused approach, but in the sum it works.

clearly you have no clue about what you're talking about. you try too hard to be witty and funny at times....

 

OT"Uncharted imo is an Action/Adventure game with a TPS focus for combat and also heavy emphasis on platforming. may it be SP or MP. can't really fit into one category and hence why many gaming media outlets have it listed as different genre.

Sure, that's why your response to the topic's question is essentially the same as mine. You know just as well as everyone else that Uncharted isn't going to win any TPS or platformer GotY awards.

lol THAT'S the basis for your assessment of uncharted as a series? if it doesn't get goty for those genre then it's not on the same level as other games...gotcha

and for the record UC2 won tps goty awards as well among many other categories. here is a link with some of the awards it has won to educate yourself a bit (first thing that popped up in google)

As for platforming, it's just the take on platforming that keeps it from getting goty for the category. for example tomb raider and Prince of Persia like games also have platforming....but 3d platforming, especially platforming handled the way such games do does not get considered for goty awards usually..why? beats me. they are fluid as they come and fun as hell. Uncharted is up there with the best when it comes to platforming...it's just different type to what's most popular.

and again..you are clueless as to what you are talking about. if you had a clue and actually have had played the series, I would have loved to have a in depth conversation with you all different aspects, such as tps, platforming, puzzles etc to see what the specific shortcomings you see in them when compared to the games you consider to be the best in each field. but nah..you have no clue whatsoever.
