I have found that there has been alot of negative emotions towards Uncharted 1. I thought that it was a thoroughly enjoyable experience despite it's relative shortness. I am by no means in the mentality that it is better than the second Uncharted, but I thought it was a very good game. There were flaws in it, but the overall experience trumped most of the minor problems. I also liked the story alot as well. Now why do you all not like it so much!

I've never really seen big hate for it.

For me, Drake's Fortune was my favorite PS3 game until the masterful Among Thieves came out. Hell I still play Drake's Fortune to this day. For me, a couple of years after its release, it's still amazing.

The only thing I've ever heard negatively said towards Drake's Fortune is the

[spoiler] "zombie" section, which was a horrible idea [/spoiler]

Yes I agree. I never saw the hate for the game. I still love it. I'm actually getting it back on Friday after loaning it to my cousin for about 8 months. :)

I've always disliked Uncharted, and always been in the EXTREMELY small minority... don't see how the TC feels there is widespread hate for it....

The only hate that I have ever seen is that people are seemingly unanimous in saying that Uncharted 2 is better. Plus, there is some mild hate for the [spoiler] ZOMBIES!!!! [/spoiler] but even that wasn't bad. It seemed out of place a bit, but not necessarily bad.

I'm playing Unchated right now purely for the trophies. It's an ok game, but by no means is impressing me all that much. It is a good looking game with decent firefights. Oh and i haven't gotten to these "zombies" people have been saying is a spoiler. There is no real reason to stick zombies in this game and if there are, my opinion will turn bad pretty quickly about this game.

I always hear people mention that part and, just to clarify: [spoiler] They're cursed Spaniards. They aren't zombies. If anything, they're more like vamps or people changed by possession. As Sir Francis Drake said, "They come as demons." Besides, I found the section acceptable because they at least kinda explained the "how" of everything. [/spoiler]

Either way, I loved the first game and, as someone else mentioned, it was my favorite game until the second came out. I still love it though and just loaned it out to a friend so she can play through it again.

I bought my ps3 to play Uncharted 1 & 2, and I was not disappointed in any way. I platinumed both. okay I didn't get a ps3 just for uncharted, but it was a major factor for me getting one :)

[spoiler] Well, that's true. But it's easier just tocall them zombies. I'm glad they came up with a way to explain them, but it was still a stupid move in my opinion. Still, they're much better than the Guardians and Super Lazarevic. [/spoiler]

I never hated it, I just never thought it was that special. Uncharted 2, however, is an entirely different story. I just didn't get that fulfilling of an experience from Uncharted 1, but I did think the story was better than the second. I ran into a considerable amount of bugs and glitches on my playthrough of the first title. I fell through the floor twice in one game, and that's just awkward for any game to take you out of the experience like that. I also encountered some audio cut-out and texture pop-in, but nothing as jarring as falling through the floor. All in all, Uncharted 2 was just a much better, more polished and complete game, even if the story was entirely too predictable. It's NOT a realistic game by a longshot, but I alwyays thought it was kind of funny how you could take a crapload of bullets in game but then you take one gut shot and you're all bleeding out hanging over a cliff in a wrecked train. Hmmm...

I haven't seen any hate over Uncharted the only people that have been hating on Uncharted Drake's Fortune I noticed were Tomb Raider fans. Uncharted Drake's Fortune is one of the best on the PS3 but Uncharted 2 I love even more.

Wouldn't it be hilarious if the next Tomb Raider is an Uncharted clone? In regards to that one section mentioned, I thought that it was a good change of pace in terms of gameplay style to start running and gunning in addition to stopping and popping.

Me neither. I did enjoy the second one more than the first, but both games are spectacular.
