Uncharted 3 has a tough goal to reach. It needs to meet or exceed the bar set for it by its predecessor. From the reviews it did just that. It delivers amazing visuals, a fantastic narrative, great puzzles and amazing environments. Nathan Drake and the team he commands at Naughty Dog have once again set the bar for action gaming. Don’t take my word for it; see what these other reviewers have to say.
Chad Concelmo at Destrectoid has an absolute bro-mance with Nathan Drake (10/10): "When all is said and done, "perfect" really is the best word to describe it."
Ben Kuchera at Ars Technica unearths amazing treasure (Verdict: Buy): "The game is so good that Naughty Dog may have hit a wall when it comes to how well you can tell a story in a game..."
Brad Shoemaker at Giant Bomb digs Uncharted 3 (5/5): "Nathan Drake's new adventure doesn't rewrite the book like his last one did, but damn if it's not a great action game anyway."
Griffin McElroy at Joystiq has some amazing moments (4.5/5): "The sequence of events that propels Uncharted 3 from start to finish has clearly been the subject of the same brilliant centrifuge which separated wheat from chaff in the series' previous outings."
Things are not rosey the entire internet over however. One review had the audacity to give this game less than a 9 and as such received quite a bit of backlash and criticism. For further reading see the following article from Patrick Klepek at Giant Bomb which includes a link to the 'inflammatory' article over at Euro Gamer.
