I've only played 1 and 2, and 1 was garbage, and 2 was decent so I'm giving my vote to 2.

Why do you guys ignore Golden Abyss? It's an awesome game. So far I've only played UC:GA and UC:DF and there is no doubt in my mind that GA is much better. The plot, the setting, the characters - everything is so much better. The villain from GA is very well fleshed-out and believable, while the one from UC1 really sucks bad. I was waiting for them to finally introduce the character to me, show me his motives, etc., when all of a sudden he was killed and the game ended :/ Such a disappointment.

To sum up - GA is easily superior to UC 1.

Uncharted 3 was the best.

The Multi-Player was leagues better that 2, and the single player was also pretty darn good.

Uncharted 1 - 9.5
Uncharted 2 - 10
Uncharted 3 - 9.7

I thought i'd be playing devil's advocate by voting for UC3, but it seems quite a few of you feel the same too. While yes its campaign wasn't as strong as the 2nds, I absolutely fell in love with its MP. Haven't played a TPS MP component that much before since the first Gears of War.

I like Uncharted 3 best. The story was so much better and it messed with your head. The ability to throw back grenades also improved my enjoyment of the game alot, and finally i found many of the levels unique and inspired.
I really struggle to understand why so many people enjoy the second best. But each is entitled to their opinion.

I finished Uncharted 3 today. I'm so incredibly bored by the series. Please don't crucify me; It's just my opinion. The gameplay is so predictable and it feels as if the incredibly varied locales are necessary to distract you from the fact that you're jumping and solving puzzles like it was the 90s half the time, and the rest of the time you're playing an ok-ish cover based shooter.

I enjoyed U1 a lot because it was fresh. U2 was less of a thrill since the formula (in my mind) stayed almost unchanged. U3 showed how limited the gameplay was.

I literally yawned through much of the "Atlantis of the Sands" chapter. I really, really hope they step it up in Uncharted 4. The gunplay wasn't good enough in the last one.

I would bet money on the reason UC3 has so many votes is due to someone pathetically using free web proxies to boost its votes. It's not even close, UC2 is clearly the best.

UC1 is merely decent, UC2 is great and UC3 is just decent. Went to play UC3 again for the 2nd time since 2011 and thought it was so so so mind-numbingly boring, it's so tedious and soulless.

UC2 >>> UC3 > UC1

Never had a PS3, recently played Golden Abyss and realized I missed one of the best franchise of the generation. Gonna fix this soon.(Didn't vote as I only played one for now.)

I'd give the slight edge to Uncharted 3. Obviously Uncharted 2 is superb and has the best word of mouth... I think UC3 is more of the same but polished in so many substantial ways. It was a much smoother fluid experience for me and I just enjoyed the pace. Until the end. I hated the end of 3. and I LOVED the end of 1 and 2... so that was my only let down with 3... Good OP though.. a good question to pose! Obviously opinions are going to differ greatly and many are still under the Uncharted 2 spell.. and for good reason. Hell I even love the 1st game!! I just loved the story of the first and the introduction of all the characters and how it was so full of jungle and tropical island settings.. But for this poll my vote goes to Uncharted 3.. it was more of the same with a ton of polish and the multiplayer was insanely deep and satisfying far more than UC2's MP which I also loved.
