Check and mate, good sir!

I agree. The game play was better. It really feels like Crystal Dynamics took a lot of good notes from the Uncharted games and then expanded. Good for them. However, the story and character acting was a lot more engaging in Uncharted.

I'd like a game like that(Drake becoming badass). For me, and I am speaking personally. This had nothing to do about female or male. It is a character origins. They all have them. Drake wasn't magically awesome. I'm all for seeing how it happened and playing it if that were an option.
