It’s no secret that I’m a big Uncharted fan and that Nathan Drake is one of my favorite characters in all of gaming. There’s just something about the ensemble of characters that Naughty Dog has assembled...

+ Varied; beautiful locales; + Fantastic score; + Improved melee combat; + Characters; story and voicing are top notch

Aiming/shooting sluggish; Fewer and shorter puzzles
