Are my hints really that hard?

'Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception'

for the Sony PlayStation 3 released in 2011.

 

The first entry for a PlayStation game is immediately one pretty high up. This game, 'Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception' comes from the developer that has amazed me the most during the 7th Generation of Video Games; Naughty Dog. After Crash Bandicoot on the original PlayStation, Naughty Dog became a bit of an afterthought, but they would come back swinging on the PlayStation 3 with the Uncharted series.

In fact, it is because of the Uncharted series that I got a PlayStation 3 in the first place. Not the blu-ray, not the HD and definitely not the multi-media capabilities, but the adventurous Drake's Fortune lured us into the system. Never disappointed, little could we know that both the sequels would actually be better! 'Uncharted 3' features, in my opinion, the best story in the series. It doesn't rely anymore on 'magical' or 'mythical' objects, even if the characters at first believe what they're after in fact is, but on something more real. This translates into the more 'real' antagonists.

Unfortunately, 'Uncharted 3' suffers a bit from rushed development compared to it's predecessor, which felt much more polished. This game would show some minor graphics and audio glitches and gameplay segments that weren't perfect. Nevertheless, little better can be found on any system and the game graphically looks out of this world. That desert scene, very impressive. Once I complete Naughty Dog's 'The Last of Us', there's a high chance it'll also find it's way into this Top 50 list.

#28 Hint

One might wonder how this hero picks up stuff with two hands... when one hand is... unavailable. The game I'm looking for is the one that's usually regarded as the best one in the series or in any case the one that sold the most and is the most popular. I'm original like that.
