SGD Video - Uncharted: Drake's Fortune interview

We've got another video from Sony's Gamers day (SGD), and it's about the widely anticipated Uncharted: Drake's Fortune. Some guy believes it's one of the games that will "murder" the Wii, some just want their treasure hunting action.

In this video, president Evan Wells of Naughty Dog talks about their upcoming title for the PS3. Our hero, Drake, is trying to find the treasure of Sir Francis Drake who he believes to be a part of his family tree, yadda yadda. You've also got some sort of female sidekick in the form of a documentary reporter but enough of that - most of us want to hear about the juicy parts, the gameplay elements.

Wells mentioned the focus of the game: gunplay, hand-to-hand combat, and traversal. The gunplay will have over-the-shoulder camera mode, a sophisticated covering mechanic, and the ability to just run in and go guns ablazing for trigger happy fans. Drake's movements look convincingly real, which would add to a more enjoyable game.

Puzzle solving will be there, but not mind-numbingly hard because focus will be on the action (sounds like what Resident Evil 4 did). Environments will be diverse (and downright eye-candy) as you work your way to different clues in finding the treasure. Use of SIXAXIS is still in development, but Wells revealed that the motion-sensing will be involved in balancing Drake on a log, throwing grenades, and steering vehicles.

It's slated for the holiday season, but those who can't wait can feast their eyes on the video below for now.

I recall about a month ago when some people were dissing this game and saying the videos were prerendered. Everytime you think you seen all there is life surprises you again. They might as well call Playstation 3 life.

The same goes for Heavenly Sword, Ratchet, Lair...I guess seeing is believing.

Allready these games are making Motorstorm look a bit dated...think about that for a moment, that game came out in March, and it is allready being passed up.

I cannot wait for MotorStorm 2

and many, many other PS3 games

This Mythmass is going to be alot of fun.

The graphics look good, hopefully it won't be plagued with control issues like every other similar game previous.

This holiday season should be awesome for the PS3. The game inventory will increase. And lots of great games coming out. This looks like a MUST buy.



I wouldn't compare it to Gears though. I think Killzone will be a gears killer. The next step.



The more I see of what is coming for the PS3, the happier I am, that my Xblows 270 burned up. I wouldn't have bought a PS3 if it hadn't. THANKS BILLY BOY! for making such a high quality product. Now I have a great gaming console.
