Well, well. It seems that being the redheaded stepchild of some people's Game of the Year choices isn't going to stop Uncharted: Drake's Fortune. According to Naughty Dog president Christophe Balestra, a sequel to the PS3 action title is already in the works. He didn't disclose any further details, but the announcement is enough to give PS3 owners something to look forward to.
This may not be news to some of you, as it was mentioned in early December 2007 that a sequel was expected, but it seems perhaps we can expect this sequel sooner than we may have thought. Uncharted was one of the most unexpected solid gaming experiences I had last year, rather than being the Tomb Raider rip off I had imagined it would be. If you have a PS3 and haven't picked it up, do youself a favor. No, Naughty Dog is not paying me.

Scratch that. Uncharted sequel, new original ip, THEN jak and daxter sequel. Naughty dog makes me want to touch myself
Bring on the sequel.
Another neat note; this game even pays homage to alot of other titles. How many games can top that? =D
Elena, Nate and Sully were some of the best characters I've seen and the game had one of those all too satisfying conclusions so rarely seen in videogames.
Some of the battles really gave me the shits though, fucking assholes that know how to flank and use grenades. Gah! That game needed a "return to thrower" button on 'nades like CoD4.
Uncharted strikes me as a game that lends itself to a series of high-quality titles that each follow a separate story arc. Really, you don't need Nate, Elena or Sully to make a second title in the series as long as it's an adventurer hunting for something. Shit, they could tackle Atlantis, secrets of Egypt, and other tripe and I believe they'd do it better than Tomb Raider by far. Drake's Fortune stayed in the one place for most of the game, didn't feel the need to travel to thirty exotic locations worldwide and managed to create this one completely intriguing island location.
Good dog.
"does know the real numbers" really meant to read "doesn't know shit"
If you haven't played it yet, do so. It really is a quality title. REALLY. Worth every penny.
