Here, Nathan Drake on the trail of its ancestor, the famous pirate Francis Drake and his treasure.
Parachuted in the middle of an island, chased by heavily armed mercenaries, Nathan will soon be faced with "things" it would have been better not to wake up.
Concerning the construction, we are dealing with a game that remains visually impressive.
It will be appreciated that the cutscenes lack neither ambition nor inspiration, as well as dubbing and soundtrack that give the game its own identity.
Those who have never heard of Uncharted could believe that the SONY license simply copy the legendary series "Tomb Raider" by Square-Enix.
A wrong impression is however quickly swept, joystick in hand.
For if Tomb Raider is a platform game, Uncharted is essentially an action game that focuses its gameplay around gunfights.
There are quite a few phases platform, but nothing like the trials encountered by the bouncing Lara Croft.
In short, the essence of the game is therefore based gunfights covered, with a clever exploitation of the land.
Every step must therefore negotiate face hordes of enemies that must be eliminated, finding shelter behind low walls, pillars, cornices and emerging only to shoot down a reckless enemy.
A simple principle on paper, sometimes a little more difficult to implement, but which is very pleasant as favoring the strategy bourrinage.
If he is not impregnable, the game still requires some mastery of the pad and is therefore not intended for novices.
Like other action games, Uncharted is not immune to a certain repetitiveness.
Aligning an unlikely succession of gunfights face hundreds of armed pirates to the teeth, Uncharted may end up annoying or boring the player.
Repeatability even more regrettable that it renders the conduct of the game and sometimes laborious it joins a dubious management of damage.
How many times did I tried to shoot almost motionless heads who refused to "fall"?
Anyway, Uncharted 1 remains a good action game, which I highly recommend to fans of the genre and fans of Nathan Drake.
