When Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune released on the PS3 in late 2007, it was regarded as one of the most visually stunning titles to date, surpassing anything previously shown on consoles. With Uncharted 2: Among Thieves on the way, it’s almost surprising to see that Naughty Dog is able to improve upon the graphics and turn out something even more spectacular than its predecessor.
Naughty Dog has not only enhanced elements like textures, draw distances, shadows, and lighting, but believe it or not, Uncharted 2: Among Thieves seems to add more color to the palette, contradicting the belief that the PS3 is a "grey" gaming console.
Outside of comparing the titles graphically, be sure to see how Nathan Drake’s facial hair and outfit have changed.
Naughty Dog has barely pulled the veil on Uncharted 2: Among Thieves and our mouths are already dry. Over the course of the next few months, expect to see more beautiful images and perhaps even a gameplay trailer.
