Having played the other two through to the end, I was really looking forward to this one and with the added bonus of 3D on the PS3. So anybody who has played one of the previous games will be familiar with the mix of puzzles, climbing to find your way round obstacles - like Prince of Persia - and sections of shooting bad guys, using various weapons that have their own strengths/weaknesses. Rifles,grenades, long range etc.
However what really makes these games is the fantastic attention to detail and the incredible backdrops provided - so you start off in London and as you move about - you can see the skyline of the Eye,Gherkin etc. rendered perfectly. You move on to more exotic locations and each is a more spectacular sight than the previous one. Of course you can run round as quickly as possible, completing tasks and moving on - but the real pleasure in playing these games is in taking in the stunning worlds that have been created for the game. I played this on my Panasonic Plasma 3D TV and once you have the 3D glasses on, you are totally immersed in another world and at times it was difficult to take them off and get back to the real world - it is so realistic and well- rendered.
The story is the usual mix of treasure hunting that gets more and more complex, ending up with philosophical and spiritual elements taking over - why does Drake keep doing this - it's almost like a compulsion and it's not really about the treasure and more about the life he wants to lead. Overall this is one of the classiest franchises on the PS3 and you have to try it, to see what can be done. The game play is mixed up, so you are never doing the same thing all the time - although it will all be very familiar stuff to most people. It is great fun though, to immerse yourself in Drake's world of adventure, mystery, magic and beating up bad guys - while staring in awe at the amazing places created by the graphics teams - 3D does really improve this as well. If you have a PS3 and a 3D TV - you have to try this - the best 3D gaming experience around at the moment!

Fun:
At the end of every year I like to think back and ponder what my game of said year was. As a rule I am a 360 player, but every time an Uncharted game has been released it has become my GOTY. Was this the case in 2011 and the third Uncharted game? The answer is a definite yes, as number 3 provides even more epic set pieces, funny lines and has added flavour in a character that looks a bit like The Stath.
The main issue with sequels is an inevitable sense of diminishing returns. Each game builds on the last and can never be quite as original as the first. This should be the case with `Uncharted 3', although it does stand on the shoulders of the first two games, it provides plenty new thrills and spills to make it a classic in its own right. Graphically the game is sublime, being perhaps the best looking game on the PS3. Storywise it is also a triumph, the action is interspersed with a touching glimpse into Nathan Drake's childhood and how he and Sully formed a bond. These elements are all well and good, but what pushes `Uncharted 3' are the set pieces. Levels based on a ship, the London streets and a mysterious city are perhaps the best the series has ever seen. Naughty Dog has gone bigger and better in this area making the game the pinnacle of the franchise so far.
As well as the super high quality single player campaign, Uncharted 3 also comes with multiplayer and co-op modes. These easily add another 10 hours or so onto a decent 10 hours campaign. Naughty Dog has shown once again why I love them as a developer; mixing action and platforming with quality scripts and storytelling. I just hope Uncharted 4 is in the works.
Sammy Recommendation

Fun:
I really enjoyed Uncharted 1: Drake's Fortune and was utterly blown away by Uncharted 2: Among Thieves so I had high expectations of the 3rd game. Although it doesn't quite live up to the high standard of the second game it is certainly one of the best games of 2011. Once again, we join Nathan Drake chasing fabled treasures across the globe and the graphics are phenomenal. Drake's search for the Lost Atlantis of The Sands takes him from the streets of London to the vast ocean and sandy desert. Amongst the blazing gunfights there are several new features such as extended hand-to-hand combat, returning enemy grenades and diving underwater to avoid gunfire. The character relationships are as much a part of the game as the action so it's nice to see Sully and Elena again - their dialogue is realistic and you care what happens to them as characters. The levels themselves are diverse and action-packed although there are a couple where you just meandered aimlessly; Drake's drugged foray through the streets and the initial walk through the desert were certainly a bit tiresome. Although the story is interesting I think I prefer the story of Uncharted 2: Among Thieves... this one felt a little rushed and occasionally a bit repetitive with the fighting. Drake also felt easier to control in the previous games and he seemed a little clumsy in this third installment. I think any Uncharted fan will enjoy this regardless of its faults as it is still a great game... I just feel like the second one takes the gold and leaves Uncharted 3 in the dust.
