I'm finally getting around to playing through the series and I'm wondering if the side games are worth it or if I shouldn't stick to the numbered instalments.

By side game I'm only aware of the PS Vita game. There's more than that?

Yeah there's 4 of them, two on Vita, Golden Abyss and Fight of Fortune, an android game called Fortune Hunter, and then Lost Legacy which I guess is a standalone expansion for 4 where you don't play as Nathan if I understand correctly.

Lost Legacy is really good! The others personally I wouldn't bother with. The Vita ones are decent, but nowhere near the quality of the main instalments in my opinion.

Fair enough

How far are you into the main games? I finished the first one not too long ago and it was a bit of a slog to get passed some of the fighting areas due to the number of enemy sponges. I'm hoping that improves in the rest of the series.

I'm only a few chapters into the first one and I'm having a similar experience, but I've heard they get better as they go. I'm gonna power through them regardless as they're basically the only Naughtydog games I haven't played.

Only the Naughty Dog ones which I think is just Lost Legacy.

I wish I could play these again for the first time. Uncharted 2 was mind blowing to me. I bought the PS2 for the train level. The story, the combat, and the puzzles…it was like playing Indiana Jones. Enjoy!

PS…the first one kinda sucks.

  • Uncharted 1, even though it doesn’t hold up that good.
  • Uncharted 2
  • Uncharted 3
  • Uncharted 4
  • Uncharted: The Lost legacy is definitely worth it

If you’re asking about the Golden Abyss for PS Vita, don’t bother.

Enjoy! You won’t regret it, I LOVE Uncharted
