Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception

[Chargersfan57]

Sources claim Nathan Drake's third adventure title will feature Raiders of the Lost Ark-like desert locales; full reveal expected next month.

Source: Gaming blog Kotaku.

What we heard: It would come as no surprise for Uncharted developer Naughty Dog to be deep in development of a third Nathan Drake adventure. Both the original and its sequel won rave reviews when they were released in 2007 and 2009 respectively. Further, Uncharted: Among Thieves has sold more than 3 million units.

What's more, the intellectual property is a hot one. A movie based on the series, directed by David O. Russell and starring Mark Wahlberg as Nathan Drake, is set to begin filming this summer.

Is Nathan Drake taking the fight to the desert?

Neither Sony nor Naughty Dog has said a word about Uncharted 3 to date. That said, Amazon's French arm listed the product just hours before Sony's Electronic Entertainment Expo briefing in June. Sony did not comment on the matter at the time.

Now, according to a source speaking with Kotaku, it appears the game not only exists, but will be set in the desert, possibly in Africa. The first Uncharted title was set primarily in a jungle setting, and its sequel, Among Thieves, ranged in locale, from jungles and urban areas to the peaks and caves of the snowy Himalayas. The same source also told Kotaku that Sony is planning an Uncharted 3 reveal on or around the 2010 Video Game Awards show, which airs on Saturday, December 11. Sony has also teased a game unveiling for Sunday, December 12, at a private event in Los Angeles--for which Uncharted 3 now appears to be a top contender.

The official story: Sony had not responded to GameSpot's request for comment or clarification on the matter as of press time.

Bogus or not bogus?: Likely not bogus that Sony has something to share during the 2010 Video Game Awards, and certainly not bogus that a third Uncharted game exists. Similarly, it's not unlikely that the title will be set in a locale new to the series. Whatever the case may be, if the source proves accurate, answers will arrive very soon.

Like I said last year, the desert raiding tombs is the only place to go after the jungles and arctic.

Remember the results of Friday the 13th when they took Jason to space.

I believe this will turn out great.

I try not too...

I can only imagine it will be bigger and better. With so many amazing events happening in the second one, it's going to be quite a treat to see how they're gonna top it.

Yeah, Naughty Dog likes to wow us with new environments. Desert is a definite given and I can't wait to be blown away again.

Yep, and I have full faith in Naughty Dog. They are a quality developer, who are always striving for perfection.

I like the contradiction in the thread title. What's official about any of it it it contains 'maybe' and 'possible'?

Okay enough teasing. I guess the desert is the next logical environment for Uncharted. I wouldn't say it's much of a surprise. Eventually I think the franchise will follow the route that the Tomb Raider games did. It'll all be cyclical and the end will be like the beginning, i.e. Nathan will be adventuring in the jungle again .

It's an official maybe...

I guess there's only so many places he could go. Maybe he could go to an exotic local with volcanic activity. With the way Naught Dog handles flowing water, could you imagine how it would look if they did oozing lava!

Oh no - stricly the game version. If they made Ezio, there'a chance...he came out of nowhere.

That may be the only way we get a Nathan Drake collectible. I believe SS said Drake was a little to generic looking to make...

If done right, that would be an utter show stopper! Specially if it was done for the PS4.
