Don't expect the Uncharted series to go anywhere soon

According to an interview on Industry Gamers, the franchise has netted a whopping 13 million sales to date. Nathan Drake's first escapade appeared on PlayStation 3 back in 2007. Naughty Dog's developed two more entries in the series since, with the latest releasing last month on PS3. A fourth Uncharted game is scheduled to release early next..

Naughty Dog's listened to user feedback regarding the aiming issues in Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception and will offer a solution via a new patch

According to a report by GiantBomb, players will be given the option to toggle between the current controls and an updated version more in-line with Uncharted 2. Uncharted 3 hit some flak post-release when fans raised issues with the game's..

One overlooked element of the Uncharted series is Nathan Drake's trusted journal

The paper-based notebook was a particularly big component of Uncharted 2: Among Thieves and Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception, a tool Drake used to solve puzzles, make notes and generally goof around. You could spend a good half-hour perusing Drake's drawings and humorous anecdotes in-game, and now you've got the..

Uncharted has become the tent-pole release in PlayStation's roster

Brushing aside the likes of Killzone, Resistance and (arguably) Gran Turismo — Naughty Dog's tales of Nathan Drake and company have found a market bigger than many of Sony's other endeavours. But it could have been so different. The series was originally intended as a fantasy franchise, but noticing the boom of "gritty..

Sony's expanded its growing collection of PS3 'Greatest Hits' by four, adding the likes of God Of War III, Heavy Rain, Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, Modnation Racers and UFC Undisputed 2010 to the catalogue's growing roster

Each of the games will be repackaged at an impressive $30, making them the perfect impulse purchases — even if you own two copies already. C'mon, Uncharted 2's good enough to..

We've no idea what "President's Day Weekend" is (though we can probably have a good guess)

All the same, it means Naughty Dog's decided to triple the cash earned across Uncharted 2's various multiplayer game types. The additional multiplayer rewards will run right through until 10AM PST on Tuesday. Get shooting.

Anybody who's anybody loves the Uncharted franchise

The series is clearly having a pretty big impact on both Sony and Naughty Dog's bank-balance, with the two Uncharted titles released thus far racking up sales of nearly 8 million units worldwide. Those are some pretty big numbers for a relatively new IP. See publishers, new franchises can be successful. Take a risk.

Through 12:01AM PDT and 11:59PM PDT Naughty Dog will be switching on 5 x XP, aswell as special perks and offering the chance to play with the game's developers. There'll also be a "celebration" Drake skin up for grabs — it can be used after the event but can..

Eagle-eyed bloggers over at GamerZines have spotted a job listing on Naughty Dog's website

The posting from the Uncharted 2 developers appeals for a game designer to help build "fun third-person action gameplay and levels". Third person action? Uncharted 3? You bet. The listing adds that the candidate will be responsible for "for the planning, level layout, setup and tuning of..

I just don't get it

As a reviewer, I can see the positives and negatives in every game I play. But on a personal level, I just don't get multiplayer shooters. I'm talking about the games that have Team Deathmatch as the default game-mode — your Modern Warfare 2s, Medal Of Honors and even Uncharted 2s. I've always questioned whether I truly have the patience to play these games for long periods..

It's a shame video games don't pass-on your spoils

Imagine if you were playing Borderlands, and everytime you picked up amazing piece of loot it came shooting out of the front of your console. Same for Uncharted 2. There'd be treasure everywhere. Amazing. We really wish that was the case this weekend, as Naughty Dog's opened up double-cash for the independence holiday. The per-match earnings..

Uncharted 2: Among Thieves was a power-house that surpassed all console games visually

God Of War III then surpassed that. And now Guerrilla Games' Hermen Hulst has told VG247 about his "needs" to surpass the aforementioned titles with Killzone 3. Describing the race for technical superiority between first-party brethren Naughty Dog and Santa Monica, Guerrilla's Hermen said the jousting..

I Heart Huckabees' David O

Russell (nope, we've not heard of him either) is supposedly in early talks regarding the oft-rumoured big screen adaptation of the Uncharted franchise. That's according to the L.A. Times, who rumour he's not the only director in the running. Seems like this things really going to happen. Nathan Drake's going to be a movie star. Weird.

Sammy's committed his evening to playing Uncharted 2: Among Thieves with you lot

The general PushSquare dogs-body will be checking out the game's new DLC from around 20:30GMT (what time is this for me?) this evening. If you want to get a PushSquare party going, hit him up on PSN account "get2sammyb" (please put something like "PushSquare" in the friend request message). It'd be..

Yay, there's a double cash weekend going down on Uncharted 2: Among Thieves' multiplayer

Why you may ask? Because the Siege expansion pack is due on the Playstation Store today. Alongside title update 1.07 - which fixed a whole host of bugs and glitches - the Siege expansion DLC (available on the Playstation Store today with change from £5 / $6) includes "two new maps, six new multiplayer..
