It's hard to tell. Uncharted 1 was a pretty good game. Uncharted 2 was a fucking amazing game. It took everything about Uncharted 1 and improved on it. Better story, better pacing, better graphics, better enemy AI, better characterization, etc. It got rave reviews and it deserved it. It's pretty much a given that U3 will take everything from the second game and improve upon that, too. It just depends on how much. How much better will the graphics get? How much better will the online get? How good will the story be?

I can see some reviewers marking the game down because the story may be predictable or the gameplay may be too familiar or because they want people to come to their site (Like how one movie review site gave Toy Story 3 a scathing review just to get attention). Uncharted 3 is faced with the burden of having huge expectations placed upon it because it follows a game that did everything so unexpectedly well. If that's the case, so be it. We all know that we are getting one of the year's best games, no matter what the reviewers say.

Toy Story 3 a scathing review for attention, that's plain EVIL and gives himself  away as a ex game reviewer.

The queston says "CAN uncharted 3 score higher than Gears of War 3 on metacritic?" Well I would say pretty much almost everyone would probably agree that it CAN. Maybe a a better question would be "WILL" it beat Gears 3. I would say it has a good shot of beating Gears 3 due to the high metacritics that previous Uncharted games have had.




It would if it gets more perfect scores than Gears Of War 3.
after playing the beta i think Naughty Dog won't disappoint us.

I do think Uncharted 3 will score higher, but not much higher. Like a 1-2 points more.

Why would you wait ten days? Do you even know when UC3 releases? :P


Because I don't want to flood you with crow on the SAME DAY UC3 releases. I'm pretty sure the rest of the VGC community will keep you occupied. Once they've died down, in about 10 days, then I'm gonna hit you with another blow. It will be intense.


LMAO!!! Damn Jay!!! I thought you were cool, calm, and collected(like Huey) now you seem to be somewhere between Robert and Riley :p

the lowest i think U3 could get is a 93. i mean its gonna be real hard for a reviewer to justify giving it anything below a 9 from what i have seen so far from the game. theres also a poll on the metacritic site itself about asking which game people think is gonna get the highest score. uncharted 3 leads at the moment followed very closely by skyrim

I've been experimenting with PCP lately. That shit can change yo life son!

Just putting this out there:
Gears of War 1(2006): 94/100 meta.
Gears of War 2 (2008): 93/100
Gears of War 3 (2011): 91/100 (currently)
3 games average 92.6 %

Uncharted 1 (2007) 88/100 meta
Uncharted 2 (2009) 96/100
Uncharted 2 (2011) ?
2 games average 92%

Will Uncharted 2 be the pinnacle of the series? It remains to be seen. But, for those who think that Uncharted is the historically better series, Uncharted 2 definitely picked up the slack from Uncharted 1 an eight point higher meta-score. We'll soon see how Uncharted 3 holds up to it's predecessors soon enough.

What I'd like to see, after Uncharted 3 comes out, is a direct comparison. Certain sites will review Gears 3 and not ever review Uncharted (OXM, for example). Other sites will review Uncharted 3 and not Gears (OPM, for example). Is there anyone among us who would be willing to gather all of the common denominator reviews from sites like IGN, 1up, and Gamesradar? Even if it's not likely that the same reviewer will review both games, it would give us a more direct comparison.



I don't like Metacritic, I prefer Gamerankings. Much more accurate and it seems to take more reviews, as far as I can tell. I know GamrReview is on there, but not on Meta.
