    You guys have no fucking idea how much I love the Uncharted series.

    I love it so goddamned much.

    I have played through the first game so many times.

    And the second? Don't even get me started!

    DrIan and I went to the LA AMC event and we got to talk to Emily Rose, Claudia Black, Amy Hennig and Greg Edmondson.

    They were all delightful.

    And man, the 3D was pretty impressive. The framerate definitely takes a hit but after a couple of minutes I stopped noticing.

    And goddamn, hearing their amazing sound design in a theater was fantastic

    That's wonderful.

    He sure is having a great time for a game he's not playing, at least according to no light being lit on the controller.

    Aw, I wish I had gone to the AMC thing now. I didn't realize we were going all out ridicucrazy.

    I know there's a fair chance that Naughty Dog has gotten sick of working on Uncharted by now, but if they are going to work on the series again I'd love for them to make U4 instead of Uncarted: Kart Racers.

    That game would look amazing though

    this game looks ok but 360 still has the better exclusives

    They've probably got time for one more to squeeze in at the end of the PS3s lifecycle, but my bet is on them spending a solid 3 years on a launch title for the PS4. I mean, someone is going to have to make launch titles for the thing now that Insomniac is third party.

    Also, they've historically stuck to one franchise per platform. So it wouldn't surprise me if UC3 is the last Uncharted.

    They may let it rest for a while though, as companies have done in the past.

    But as far as the devs being sick of it, the few members who have appeared on the giant bombcast have been fucking ecstatic about what kind of insane stuff they're doing for 3. I really doubt they're sick of it, as each new game just seems to provide them a challenge of how to one-up themselves.

    Uncharted... On Mars!

    Uncharted... In WWII!

    Uncharted... With Zombies!

    Sony show remarkable restraint in not trying to turn Uncharted into an annual cash cow.

    I think Sony's actually pretty good at not completely ruining their franchises, actually.

    I don't expect this to be the last Mass Effect game either. I mean, I don't know what they're going to do (though the co-op might be a hint), and Shepard's story will definitely finish, but yeah. They've put too much into that universe to just let it drop.

    But I don't think anyone's said anything about how THIS IS THE END OF THE UNCHARTED SAGA, and Uncharted is more of an episodic kind of story anyways.

    I think Bioware has gone on record as saying they'll be doing other stuff with the Mass Effect universe after 3.

    Speaking on Uncharted 3's graphical improvements, game director Justin Richmond revealed that much of the work made was on 'under the hood' upgrades and optimisation of code, and that future games on the PS3 will follow the same practice.

    "Uncharted 3 isn’t just an incremental update - we did change lots and lots of things - but graphically speaking, it’s not going to have the same gap [as between Uncharted 1 and 2]," Richmond said. "It was never going to happen.

    "The way we made it, how much of the PS3’s power we were using... that huge gap that you saw between Uncharted 1 and 2 is the kind of thing that really only happens once per generation. We pushed it really hard." Richmond added that the graphical leap was thanks to a rewriting of the core engine's architecture, something that Naughty Dog only hopes to do once every console cycle.

    "Uncharted 2 to 3 is still a jump, but its a narrower jump. And going forward, it depends on what we do. There are always ways to improve stuff, always ways we can pull out more stops... like changing optimisations, changing streaming animations, getting more polygons on screen, progressive mesh," Richmond said.

    "But I don’t think you’ll ever see that same jump again, at least on a PlayStation 3. There was just so much power left over in the PS3 when we made Uncharted 1, that we figured out how to use and really took it to town when developing Uncharted 2."
