Uncharted 3 Is Better Than You Remember

[@ktshipman21]

This one is my favorite in the series, with 2 very close behind. Nate wandering through the desert while Marlowe narrates poetry from T.S. Eliot. It felt so different from the rest of the games to that point. No one was trying to kill you. There was no intricate set design where the building or structure you were on was exploding/collapsing/on fire. Just Nate, alone. No quips, no jokes. Just stewing in how he’d failed after everyone warned him this would happen.

[@Türkiyem-61]

Bro 2 is the best 3 is also amazing but it has too many holes in the story

[@ktshipman21]

@@Türkiyem-61 it has been awhile. Which holes are we talking about? The only plot hole I can really think of in the entire series is in 4. And that one is huge.

[@Türkiyem-61]

@@ktshipman21 Bro you have to be joking right? The set pieces were done before the story don’t you feel that when you played the game also the villains are probably the worst in the series and it has some weird moments and rushed stuff

[@ktshipman21]

@@Türkiyem-61 okay, so the set pieces were done before the story. That’s pretty common in games. And I fail to see how that’s a plot hole. And actually, Marlowe is one of my favorite villains in the series. Lazaravic was great, but felt very… I dunno. Stereotypical video game bad guy?

[@Endgame_01]

I'm not so sure Uncharted should ever have been adapted to the big or the small screen. It was created as a playable movie-like experience with a bunch of gun fights and puzzles so it's difficult to break that down back into a movie without overdoing unrealistic fight scenes. That's why we got Nate and Chloe solving a puzzle in a Papa John's

[@Brianycus]

As an actual historian, I love the history of Uncharted 3 the MOST. It reminds me a lot of Raiders of the Lost Ark, T.E. Lawrence being a prevalent plot point for this as well as just seeing this adventure be as grand as possible, man it warms my heart. Uncharted is just the best man.

[@joel9104]

This one is my favourite in the series, I'm so glad that (for the original trilogy at least) the series topped itself with each entry (4 being close). The story was great, the combat was improved and the set pieces were made crazier and awsomer. 2nd favourite game of all time

[@adamcampbell3263]

This was honestly my favourite of the original uncharted trilogy, always loved the desert setting

[@HutchIsOnYT]

With Indiana Jones 3 being my fav in that series, this game just has a special place in my heart. The Sully - Drake interactions make it for me.

[@ALtheBoi]

The pirate subplot really does exemplify the "We have to make sense of this cool gameplay segment we came up with in the story and vice versa" thing the devs were talking about I wonder if we would've seen it get repurposed for U4, had it been cut from U3 cause pirates and shit

[@chriscannon8144]

I’m so glad you included the Subway commercial. I could be wrong, but I miss when games used to have commercials like that where they had characters in comical situations.

[@chriscannon8144]

@Antonio Gramsci Not sure what that has to with what I said, but yeah, close. They had used recycled set pieces and had to reanimate his arm motions, which may sound simple, but it’s far from it. And animated a whole new scene at the end.

[@KazumaKuzuryu4162]

I believe Talbot was supposed to be a Djinn, that would explain how he disappears around that corner and after getting shot, comes back completely fine, some may think i'm reading to much into it, but the characters in the game are confused by both of these, and the game doesn't answer how Talbot does these things, why would the game put emphasise on these if the explanations are something like "oh he's fine after getting shot, he's just wearing a bulletproof vest" because that's really weak, I think they just didn't have enough time in development to reveal the Djinn twist and make a boss fight around that, so they dropped it.

[@AB-fr2ei]

Yep that was the original plot but was cut since U3 was rushed to make TLOU There still some traces of that plot left, shame we that never saw the true finished U3

[@origins183]

The multiplayer in uncharted 3 hooked me to the point of playing it 5 years after everyone left out and went to other games. It wasn’t perfect by a LONGSHOT, but there was so many ways to play the game that it made it up for it. The maps weren’t annoying and compact enough to always find people and keep the action going. I would’ve loved it if they added the multiplayer back in the drake collection.

[@patriot459]

Customizing your own villain and hero anyway you wanted was always dope. While then the levels were super interactive. Like the plane on the runway map or the flooded submarine base that would have certain parts of the map get flooded so you had to climb up and shit. So much fun.

[@captaincz5763]

Lmfao I vividly remember that Subway commercial. More companies should do stuff like this to better promote their games. And also, yet another great video from you J. Uncharted 3 was the first PS3 game I've played and it means a lot to me that people like you review it and praise what it has to offer. For some reason I kept thinking about Tom Holland lol

[@michaeldagadagn307]

I remember that before Uncharted 3 the player barely had any backstory for Nathan Drake regarding how he met Victor Sullivan. Overall I liked their elaboration as to how important Sully is to Nathan because he was essentially the father figure he never had growing up.

[@jamesward5363]

I love uncharted so damn much it's Easley my favorite game franchise of all time also did you know Uncharted 3 had a lot of cut content and the guy who played Charlie was supposed to be a bigger role instead of just leaving halfway through

[@honofelux]

Maaan I remember playing Uncharted 3 like 11 years ago and this video felt like a huge nostalgia trip. I used to consider 1 my favorite but after these videos and looking back I just realized that 3 was the one I enjoyed the most and the one with the fondest memories attached to it.

[@ShiroMatrix]

I'm surprised you didn't mention the retcon of Nate's ring. I remember when I first played through this game on PS3, and they went into how he got the ring and what it meant to him, my first thoughts were, "Then no way he would have just wanted to chuck it in Uncharted 1!"

[@JsReviews]

I actually hadn't thought of that. Is especially hard to believe after seeing the origins of why the brothers went by Drake in Uncharted 4.

[@jamesgray3797]

It wasn’t a retcon. From what I remember, near the end of uncharted 4- when Sam and the group are reunited Sam complains that because Elena and Sully don’t want to go for the treasure they just “don’t get it”. But Nathan replies to that with “they’ve seen this kind of obsession before”, Nate also adds to that with “we have nothing to prove”. Uncharted 3, at the end when saving Marlowe, has Nate finally giving up his title as best treasure hunter, he has nothing to prove but he does have people to lose, so when Marlowe begs him to save her, he tries without the want for his ring back too. And what does he say- he has nothing to prove That’s why uncharted 4 plays out the way it does- Nate got out of the treasure hunting life because of uncharted 3 The ring was no retcon

[@ShiroMatrix]

@@jamesgray3797 Yes it was. What you're describing with his changed attitude happens at the end of Uncharted 3. In Uncharted 1 we're lead to believe it was an inheritance, and just a means to get a treasure that ended up not being there, which is why he left the ring behind. In the flashback we play in Uncharted 3, we are shown he took the ring because he believed it was his birth right, and that the ring had a lot of value to him outside of being a means to a treasure. That's a huge retcon right there. Also with the ring having that much value to him, he wouldn't have just decided to leave it behind in Uncharted 1 like he did.

[@The_Mammal_Man]

Even with some inconsistencies in the story telling, Uncharted 3 is, still to this day, an amazing and enjoyable game you can dive in! It's also the only one were you can throw back grenades (shame the others don't have that...)

I also LOVED the split screen and the FREE online multiplayer which was one of the best online games l have ever played. This game is an example of how a masterpiece must be like!! Great story,fun gameplay,dynamic music and AMAZING multiplayer!!! I freaking love this game so much and it saddens me so much that they shut down the uncharted 2,3 and tlou on ps3... I wish they would put all the extra stuff on the remastered version...For shame on you Naughty Dog!!!

[@CalvinCrack]

Uncharted 3 has better shooting than Uncharted 2? Now that’s a hot take! I don’t think there’s anything that it does better which is why it is such an easy target as black sheep of the franchise. Upon release the shooting was somewhat broken, to the point where ND invited players from a popular message board to come in and show them what was wrong. A patch was then released but it never felt quite right. The trilogy collection went a longer way to adjust this but IMO there’s still something a little weird about it. Could be the relationship to AI & enemy hit boxes & animation. Story wise, UC2 is also much better paced. The action set pieces in 3, as you point out, felt very tacked on. I loved that clip you showed of the developers confirming that it was indeed the story itself which was tacked on. I think all games are incredibly hard to make, UC3 is no different, it just shows signs of that difficulty in the end more than one would hope. It feels (artfully) scotch taped together.

[@MrCarpediem6]

Wasn't this the one where Henning and Drukman et al butted heads?

[@CalvinCrack]

@@MrCarpediem6 I do think something happened behind the scenes. For Hennig to walk (or be made to walk?) from such a solid position at a solid studio, coming off some of the best games ever doesn't seem like something that just happens organically. Shit got weird. And I've had a sour taste about the ND mgmt and Druckman ever since. Uncharted 4 was a high quality product, but was missing the fun pacing and energy that made the series what it is. And that's what you get from a writer and director.

[@MrCarpediem6]

@@CalvinCrack I think so.. and I think Drukman eventually left UC3, so he could focus on Last of Us.

This was actually my very first Uncharted game! I borrowed it from a teacher at school and just fell in love with the mechanics and especially the story! I remember feeling the exact same way as Nate did when Sully, supposedly, was shot after Nate drank from the fountain near the end. The music is another aspect that stuck with me! To the point that, as I type this, I have some of it playing in my head from memory! There are SO many memorable lines too! Nate, Sully and Cutter all get in some hilarious lines that always get a laugh out of me, despite playing this game so many times! I first played it in 2017 and since then, I’ve played and beaten it… I wanna say close to a dozen times now! Most of that was on PS3 and a few more runs on PS4 when I finally got that system in 2021. Maybe I was late to the party, but I don’t care! It became my favourite game of the series… Until I played Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End… THAT was an AMAZING experience to the point I double-dipped for the PS5 upgrade as one of my first games on the system when I recently bought a PS5! Looking forward to the Uncharted 4 review!

[@christianperez7846]

Uncharted 3 kinda let me down after 2. I’m playing the series through for the first time and everything good about two got used in 3, but either got overused or worse. The set pieces were amazing, but the platforming was clunky and moving in and out of cover felt sticky. The combat was improved with more cqc animations. But the gunplay was less impactful because enemies don’t respond to being shot until the third or fourth shot. Drakes Fortune had better gun play tbh. My favorite part of the game is seeing how NDI evolved as far as storytelling moments are concerned. Everything between Drake and Sully was awesome. But everything else in the story fell flat because the other characters were so uninteresting. There’s tons of storytelling and mechanical issues in 3 for me. I 100%ed it and looking forward to going back to 100% 2. I understand waiting until 3 came out when you were in to the series in the beginning changes your perspective. Because I’m late to the party and playing them all back to back. I did get to play 1 a little when I was younger, but I was always an Xbox kid. I never got to play a bunch of PS titles until my cousin came to live with me and introduced me to the PS2 & 3. My opinion doesn’t matter as much as players that were there from the beginning.

I was immediately on board with 3 having had so many fond memories of 2. Ended up finishing it relatively fast, like a day or so, and had a solid experience but after the huge leap forward that 2 was it didn't make the same sort of impact. I think it released within a week or so of Batman Arkham City so most of my time ended up going towards that after the initial Uncharted 3 play through.

I had a bad first impression with this game back in 2015. For whatever reason it had frequent stuttering issues the entire game on my PS3. I did everything I could to try to fix it but nothing worked (Downgrading the game, sending my PS3 back to Sony, streaming it through PSNOW, trying different copies both new and used). It literally drove me insane trying to fix it. When it was all said and done I did manage to fix it by replacing the slow 5200rpm HDD in my PS3 with a 7200rpm HDD. But it honestly left a pretty sour taste in my mouth dealing with all that crap. The game itself I liked but I don't think it quite matches up with Uncharted 2. The story in this game felt weaker, and there were a little too many walking and talking moments that took away control from the player. An issue that sadly got substantially worse in the next game in the series.

[@emocatgaming2332]

Uncharted 3 has been my favorite. Ever since Nathan woke up to be face to face with that pirate leader in that ship graveyard, this game became what may very well be my favorite video game. From that point onwards, it’s simply the most intense thing ever. You’re not quite alone, as you’re surrounded by an immeasurable amount of killers. They’re all looking for YOU, whilst you have to fend them off as waves of them descend onto wherever it is you are. Then, the storm came.

Replaying 3 now. The game is the hardest in the series by far. Almost to a fault. It is an amazing game, though. The set pieces are the best in the series and the story is better than most remember. Also, how ND achieved those graphics on PS3 is mindblowing.

[@ForceEdge47]

Shit, it might be better than SOME people remember lol but U3 is my favorite one. It's basically Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, but in video game form. I haven't watched the video yet but examples include escaping the burning chateau, the horse chase at the end, the middle eastern setting, and hell even the fake-out that Sully/Indy's father was going to die at the end. That, and how unique the desert was - it put Nate up against a "foe" that he couldn't reason with, couldn't quip at, couldn't shoot at, just him versus mother nature after free falling out of a freaking plane with absolutely nothing in his arsenal except the will to live. The part with the sinking boat was kind of like that also. Of course, this game does require the most suspension of disbelief out of all of them, because realistically the dude fell out of a plane and wandered the desert for at least two days before engaging in a firefight and not dying of exhaustion or catching even one stray bullet, but hey that's why we love the Uncharted games anyway. Oh, and the multiplayer was also so goddamn cool. Used to play it for hours when I was in college. That, and the multiplayer for Assassin's Creed Brotherhood. Good times, boys.

[@cantafordcollege4672]

The desert chase scene in this game was iconic

[@DaxterMaster]

Uncharted 3 is a great game and Ive always thought of it that way even after countless replays. Jak 3 is also picked on for no reason because it tries to be exactly like the second one but improve everything. Uncharted did just the same and in many forms it did it better than 2. Just because U2s story worked better, doesnt mean U3 as a game is crap.

[@ryans413]

U3 is okay the cruise ship section is the best part the plane sequence was okay but I felt it was over pretty quick. The first half of the game is boring it’s almost like it was written by different people. I didn’t care for the Scotland castle section it felt so odd and Chloe returning just for that part it was more of a cameo appearance. I did like Cutter they need to bring him back. The desert stuff is where the game shines majority of the game is in the desert and it’s a nice change for the series.

I don’t think they mentioned anything like that but that could have lended to his like… ability and to make him a bit more intimidating like oh damn we’re facing off against a real agent type dude and not just ya know. A seemingly regular guy.

Uc3 multi-player might be my favorite all time

[@Makman1994]

The debate as to whether Uncharted 2 or 3 is better, is just as tough as "Raiders of the Lost Ark" vs "The Last Crusade"

[@bulletproofman323]

I remember skipping school the day it came out to play it, only to feel the same as you in the beginning of this video... maybe I'll give it a try again after this now. I'm curious.

I remember hating the difficulty. I just remember being behind cover and not understanding why j was getting hit. Then realised a bad guy has circled around me and was just standing out in the open shooting me from behind. Wtf?

[@hodgeyfitness6058]

The guns are really loud on uncharted 3 remastered if you play one and 2 you will know what I'm on about

[@retrogamer4185]

This game was the first one I played in 2011 I remember that I rented it from a redox at my local publix

[@BirdsElopeWithTheSun09]

Uncharted 3 has BY FAR the best music of the series.

[@calvinmatthews1527]

To me Uncharted 3 is the commonly neglected child of an overall amazing franchise. Most third installments usually are. Can't wait for you to talk about Uncharted 4 though J.

[@luigigx1172]

This is Actually my first uncharted game when I was little… now I think about it Jak 3 was also my first Jack and Daxter game um what do you know

[@daryljr5361]

I like your set up J

[@scphdaxc]

Talbit was definitely supposed to be a Jinn or something along those lines But clearly they scrapped it with his different abilities It’s a shame It would have been so cool to see somthing like that fleshed out

[@Thumbreakur]

Mind telling me where you got those posters? 0:19

[@midnightfox3157]

God I love uncharted my fav game series and uncharted 3 is definitely my fave in the series

[@pedrofelix9793]

The game's title in your thumbnail reads: "Uncharted 3: Drake's On" hehe 😅 Not sure whether that was intentional or not, but still. It's pretty funny, regardless.

[@Aaron_Stever]

I'll be honest I laughed so hard when you compared the final boss to a playable version of the qte knife fight from re4 when you released this vid a month after the remake where that fight is actually playable.

[@JsReviews]

Yeah, this video was made before the Remake came out, fun fact.
