    You're at the end. Play it. It will take maybe another hour or two.

      I got rid of it and seen my friend play it. I must say the end was ridiculously hard on normal. Also the

        UC is the only series this gen I've kept all the games for. Its like an awesome movie trilogy that you're in control of. I find myself going back call the time to play them first to 3rd

            That's one of the only things I don't like about Uncharted, but spun a different way. I don't like how I build up a large stock of ammo, and then the story dictates that the next chapter I should be without ammo, or just with a good pistol. Normally it's for good reason, but it's yet another thing that makes me hate games that can become so linear and sectioned off, unlike a sandbox, open world kind of game.

            I'm hoping The Last of Us is a bit different in that regard (at least the AI will react differently according to what you're stocked with), but I won't hold my breath.

              I know people will complain about the quality of 2 or 3, but it's a great series. My favorite series thus far.
              I got through 2 and most of 3 now. Actually, I've almost completed my 2nd playthrough of 2 (on hard/getting all the treasures) before finishing 3

              Uncharted 2 is the best game I've played on PS3 so far. Perfectly paced and so many "wow" moments on that first playthrough.

              3 is fun, but nothing like the jump from 2 to 3. I would say 2>1>3. The story in 3 is really lacking so far.

                This is by far my favorite series this generation of consoles. At some point, I want to play all 3 games again.

                  Is there a deal out there to buy the "Trilogy"?

                  There was a deal a while back, but I can't find it...I'd like to purchase them. Anything?

                    I don't think so but you can probably find each game for $10 used somewhere. They did have a UC1/UC2 dual pack. Amazon would be a good place imo.

                      I think I've beaten every one at least 3x. Couldn't agree more. And the first was the biggest surprise without all the fanfare of a Metal Gear or major franchise.

                        That's what I did when I re-purchased the series; bought the 1-2 combo pack and then picked up a used copy of 3. Cost less than $40 for all 3 games.

                          Beat UC 1 last month, on chapter 6 of UC 2 now. Really enjoying it!

                            So while all the cool kids play the new, shiny Drake I'm jumping from Blue Point Game's previous remaster work (MGS) into the original releases of Drake's gun-slinging, treasure robbing trilogy.

                            I had gone through both UC1 and UC2 on Hard this past January. This past week I came back to UC1 to do my Crushing playthrough and grab any misc. trophies I had missed. Coming back to UC1 after playing UC2 is really eye-opening - particularly in those initial chapters of the game.

                            Everything feels small (until Chapter 5 anyway) and the controls are loose and painfully frustrating in certain, near-death sequences. That first time the camera pans out while Drake is platforming is still amazing. Yet, it wasn't until Elena came back with a winch and Jeep to bust you out of prison that the game really hit its stride again with me. For me that's when the magic of series really sets in and etches out its own niche in gaming.

                            Crushing was fairly manageable for most of the game. There were some end of chapter sequences that were only manageable once you memorized the sequencing of events, but I was actually able to complete the jetski sections with only one restart.
