the first wasn't bad, but the second one was a lot better gameplay wise. I'd suggest it, but don't go in expecting everything to be like the second.

Yeah it's very good and it argueably has a better story than number 2, in my opinion. It isn't Uncharted 2 gameplay wise but it still very solid and it is very cheap now.

YESSS!!!! I did the same thing because when I got my slim model Uncharted 2 just came out and I heard great things about it so I gotten that. After beating Uncharted 2 I went back to Uncharted 1 to beat that so I can know the story from the beginning! Definitely worth a pick up and especially now when it is so cheap

I asked myself the same question (i got U2 a year ago and wanted to get U1 before U3 comes out), but then i went for it seeing as U1 is very cheap. I'm currently in chapter 14 in U1 and i have to say that it was definetly worth it. It's not only a great game, but it also has a great story that will help you understand the relationships of the main characters.

I think so. The shooting isn't as tight, but a lot of the mechanics are the same. The game is also beautiful, and frankly the story is pretty (pop)ish and fun.

Uncharted 2 came with my PS3 bundle I got on Black Friday 2010. I played it, beat it and thought... man, if Uncharted 1 is half this good, I'll be happy. And happy I was. It's not Uncharted 2 (as everyone is saying), the gameplay isn't quite there, the scenery gets tiring after 8-10 hours and... spoken like someone who has platinum'd the game twice now... it's actually much less forgiving than Uncharted 2 on harder difficulties. It's unreasonably frustrating at times. But it's a damn good game in it's own regard.

If you liked the second, you'll at least find something to enjoy about the first and for the $15 or so price tag these days... it's well worth the price of admission.

Uncharted 1 does not have as much polish as Uncharted 2, but I actually prefer 1. Even though I know 2 is a better overall game, I like the harderdifficulty of 1 better.

Yes. I actually found a lot of things in the original better than in Among Thieves.

One of the things I hated about 'Uncharted 1' was having to empty pretty much an entire clip into a guy wearing shorts and a tank-top before he'd go down. What kind of drugs were these bastards hopped up on?

It's worth a rent... I plat'd the game in a 7 day rental so you can easily play through the game once and get some background and entertainment in even a 3 day rental. Great game.

Yes definitely. Playing through Uncharted 2 made me remember some awesome parts from the first one, which are a lot. I feel like Uncharted 2 has you playing in a lot of closed off sets, and then there's a small script or cutscene, and then another closed set. To me, Uncharted 1 has a lot better flow throughout it's levels. UC2 was still awesome though.

It's still a great game, but since you played Uncharted 2, you're going to be underwhelmed by it.

I would say yes it is. Dont go expecting UC1 to be NEAR as epic and awesome as UC2 but it is still a great game and holds up its own. I played UC2 before I got the first and I was pleased with both.

In some ways, i enjoyed first game little more. That being said, second game is overall improvement. Both games are well worth it.
