# 21 Uncharted 2 Among Thieves 

I'm so so glad that I kept playing this franchise after the first game that I actually thought was a bit clunky and not nearly as fun as the second and third instalment. I could just as easily have put the third game over this, but I think Uncharted 2 is over all a better game. The introduction is such a great set piece that they used it twice. Climbing up a train that is falling off a cliff, oh man it got my adrenaline pumping.

Good blend between adventure, fantastic scenery, run and gun, and puzzles to keep the game interesting from start to finish. Borrowing from both Indiana Jones and Tomb Raider this game struck ancient gold and made me a fan of Naughty Dogs work. I still have a few games in the franchise to play. But so far this is the top dog of modern type linear adventure games.
