The floating platforms in the ship graveyard was really interesting gameplay wise. Or the sinking ship. Those are the moments where the Uncharted series does things that just don't exist anywhere else. As an experience it's awesome.

Uh, I dunno. Uncharted is probably the one that does the most visually appealing and polished setpieces like those, but I wouldn't say they "don't exist" anywhere else. I can think of some examples, like the collapsing building at the start of Alone in The Dark, the opening mission of Modern Warfare or the iconic final runaway sequence in Halo while everything else is falling apart.

I haven't played all of those but I know Modern Warfare did not integrate the sinking of the ship into its gameplay. In Uncharted you can feel the character being affected by the ship going down and the water impairing your movement.
