Uncharted The Nathan Drake Collection PS4 PlayStation 4 1

Sony's teasing that there's lots to look forward to with regards to Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection, but let's be honest – it's the performance that's most important. While the original titles ran extraordinarily well on the PlayStation 3, the PlayStation 4 comes with a revised set of expectations – including improved resolutions and much studier framerates.

It's a good thing, then, that Uncharted 2: Among Thieves already appears to be running at an incredibly smooth 60 frames-per-second in 1080p. Digital Foundry has managed to get its hands on four whole minutes of footage from BluePoint's port, and it's processed it through its fancy framerate ticker, proving that it rarely dips – even when there's tons of action onscreen.

Now, it's certainly not 100 per cent perfect at this point, but the drops are so few and far between that they're unlikely to be noticed by the average eye. This compilation appears to be in very good hands, then, which is incredibly reassuring following the disappointment of similar endeavours on other machines. Hopefully we'll be hearing a lot more about this in the run up to its release later in the year.
