It seemed very rushed and rather underwhelming by Naughty Dog's high standards, though it still would have easily been a career game for 99% of other studios. I think they ended up making the environment seem more like the enemy than the men with guns did. And while a few parts were breathtaking, like hanging out the back of the cargo plane or the topsy-turvy part in the sinking cruise ship or the trippy desert scene (although I found that part pretty annoying on subsequent playthroughs), you mostly just fell through the damn floor all the time. I didn't even remember a single shootout until I played through on Crushing and actually got stuck a few times. Uncharted 2 had a much, much better balance of action, with some of the most incredible set piece gun battles I've ever seen. Also, is it just me or did Uncharted 3's aiming feel kind of... off? At least in the single player. Multiplayer was a lot better than Uncharted 2's for me. |
I heard they patched the aiming. Not sure, though. I'd been meaning to play through the game again but time flies. It's almost been a year. Pretty much agree with your entire assessment, though.
