| 1. Uncharted 3 is more open but not open-world |
| 2. "How will we rein you in?" |
You can't get a more open than the desert, and since that's where Nathan Drake ends up in Uncharted 3 it's safe to assume that this time the gameplay won't be as guided as the first two. Be that as it may, Naughty Dog are quick to reassure Uncharted fans that they're not venturing into open-world territory.

"It's still up in the air how much gameplay we're going to let you wander around," game director Justin Richmond said in an interview by Eurogamer. "It will probably feel more open than the other games have. For sure.
"But we're never going to let you just ride a thousand miles off into the middle of nowhere. Ultimately the feel we want to get is, yeah, you're lost in the desert. So it needs to feel like that. But it's not going to feel open-world."
Richmond was also quick to point out that while the Uncharted series may make some inroads into the overall feel of an open-world game, they're not about to go all in.
"We're not an open-world game," he said. "We're never going to be an open-world game - just because that's not what we're interested in making."

It's good to know that they know open world would suck in this franchise.

no grappling hook, use a stick,
no stick, use grenade,
no grenade, use rocket launcher,
no launcher, use water.
water is limited. if you use water, you won't survive the desert.
no no, go die. load save point and make sure you take everything with you.
there, some idea for a desert game. I know it sucks..
i haven't played Uncharted by the way.. I always looking forward to. maybe soon..

playing through the first one for the first time, its good but not UC2 quality
anyway i think the desert was a very big mistake for the franchise
they are doing it because they feel its warranted, because theyve done jungle and snow

Disappointing. What's with the open-world hate? A lot of the most successful games have been open world -- GTA, Red Dead Redemption, Elder Scrolls, etc.. Exploration is part of the fun. I don't get the hate.

If they want to make an open world game, they'll create a new IP. :)
