Review Summary
While many people prefer Uncharted 2, I personally think Uncharted 3 is a new pinnacle for ND. The story is a cracker, the virtual acting exceptional, the gunplay as smooth as ever (had no issue with the aiming myself, although I play a lot of shooters so am used to adjusting to different 'feels'), and the shooting parts of the game tended to be designed to be more open, with more tactical options. The only negative I had was that UC3 on normal is roughly as difficult (for the shooting parts, which is where the difficulty is) as UC1 or 2 on hard, so what I planned as a relaxing romp through on normal required a little more brainwork to get through. It was worth it, though, as it forced you to really think about your surroundings to get through each combat sequence. There's five coop missions this time as well, and online gameplay is solid enough, but as it has a peer-to-peer setup, I was never going to hang around when there were dedicated server games to be playing, as the extra lag of peer-to-peer really downgrades the experience for me, as it does for any P2P or client-server game.
Graphics are best on console to date as well - seriously jaw-dropping moments, great attention to detail, just brilliant.
