I think this could be both a good sign or a bad sign.

The good way is that it could make for an excellent singleplayer campaign.
The bad way is that, if they do a singleplayer campaign in the vein of Uncharted (extremely linear), the game might end up being uninteresting after a playthrough.

So here's hoping the game will be something more open, full of environments that beg to be explored!

But, either way, I'm not getting excited before we see some gameplay.

I've replayed Uncharted 1 and 2 at least 3 times each. If I recall correctly U1 was played by me 5 times in total and U2 3 or 4, I can't remember for sure. And I've seen a great number of people report the same thing, that the games are very replayable and people actually do replay them a lot for the story and for the gameplay.

I've yet to play U3 for some very specific but unrelated reasons.

I've replayed them U1 and U2 a few times as well, though only for trophies, and from a value point of view, I wasn't terribly impressed. It's the same reason why I haven't played Uncharted 3 yet. I know I'm just going to play the SP once or twice, and at full retail price, that's just not worth my time.

Give me games like the new Batman games, where I can roam a world full of things worth exploring for. Or games like Heavy Rain and Mass Effect, where I can twist the story and feel like I'm making my own decisions.

That's what I want!

A multiplayer gamer would tell you that those games don't impress him and he just wants to shoot dudes in the face and if a game has no multiplayer, open world or not, he doesn't care. That's what he wants!

Which brings me to my point: there are audiences for all types of games and I'm glad Naughty Dog is making this type of game because I'm its type of audience.
