Actually Golden abyss is a lot more like the first Uncharted, nothing like Uncharted 3, and it's fantastic. It's a brilliant way to bridge the story between 1 and 2 and it's a brilliant game on it's own.
And many people use handhelds when they're travelling (train, bus, plane), including myself.
Do you even know what you're talking about?

Case in point: Uncharted 1 was a worse version of Uncharted 3.
I'm just saying, if you aren't able to leave your games at home when going outside, you probably have the mind of an eight year old.

What? These games aren't versions of eachother. They're different games in the same series. The first Uncharted isn't a "worse version of uncharted 3", It's not a version of Uncharted 3, it's its own game, with it's own storyline. Going by your logic, everyone should only play the latest game in the series, as it's the best "version", even though all games are part of an overall storyline and have their own merits.
So people have the mind of an eight year old because they want to pass the time on their commute by playing a video game?

Uh, yeah it is. The Uncharted games have only advanced, but barely changed over the years. At least not a change that would make the original one better in any way. The only reason you would want to play the original is because of the story, which is fine since it's pretty important to the series in that aspect. Golden Abyss, however, does not have this luxury. It's not important to the plot, at all. So what reason do you have to play it when it's not important to the story and there are much, MUCH better entries in the series, story-wise?
All those video games are rotting your brain. Talk to people, read the book or the news paper. Seeing someone in their late teens, or even in their adult years with a PsP always makes it look like they are diagnosed with something.

Ok I kind of see what you're getting at here, it's making more sense. I'll answer your question: People want to play Golden Abyss because it is a very enjoyable experience and tells a new story in the Uncharted franchise, it introduces new characters, it's well written and funny, and it bridges the story between 1 and 2, and in my own opinion, the only Uncharted game that's better writting-wise, is Uncharted 2.
And also, how comes you're making assumptions on how good the story is when you haven't even played it, and if you have played it, then I'm confused as to why you did based on what you've said in this thread.
I never knew playing a video game for 20 minutes on the bus would rot my brain... Don't worry, I and the many others that play portable consoles away from home still experience plenty of human interaction and keep up to date on current affairs.
