Parents need to know that this game has plenty of shooting and cursing. That said, neither the violence nor the language pushes the envelope, but be aware there's frequent curse words (s--t, a--hole, God damn, son of a bitch, etc.) and you can shoot enemies -- who are human -- in the leg or arm or head (which will result in a different animation). When the player is shot, a blood red border fills the screen to tell the player death is near.
one thing i agree with csm on. this game is really innapropriate. its violent and has some blood, and this guy does smoke a cigar but the language is off the charts for a rated T. within about 10 seconds of playing it, me and my dad heard one d***, and one h-e double hockey sticks. and it wasnt even that good
The game was fun for me (Age 38) and intense. The game plays around the constant theme of treasure hunting as the suspense and conflict continue to run throughout the game. Gun fire and death (some with blood) continue to rear their heads as well as some swearing. Some intense scenes include some zombies with very intense and suspenseful action. There are some good puzzles involved reminding me of problem solving skills. The game overall was great, good graphics but not for the "tween" but more for the teen.
boring prequel to uncharted 2. if a movie: Rated R for bloody adventure violence, language, disturbing images, frightening scenes, and smoking/alcohol use
Fun for teens and up, but fairly violent and intense
Uncharted: Drakes Fortune is a extraordinarily fun video game for PS3 that most teens who love adventure games and action (who doesn't, these days, especially teens) and can handle a few tough puzzles in between all of the action. But, this game is not for young tween's and children, because of the violence and profanity, which is actually surprisingly strong for a Teen Rated game: So, whenever someone is shot or injured, which happens constantly in this game, blood sprays from the wounds from which you shot someone, which is a little brutal. Also, the profanity includes but is not limited to many uses of sh-t, hell, crap, a--hole and g-dd-mnit, which happens throughout the action scenes and video segments of the game. Still, teens will love it and even adults will probably get a kick out of it as well. Reccomended for gamer's.
Great game (note this review has a spolier section so dont look if u dont want it spolied
I loved this game but it got a bit repetative (the scenary but it did look great). You kill alot of people by shooting, beating and "gernading" but there isnt much blood. SPOLIER there are zombies in the last couple of levels which arent that bad just to say but when a guy gets turned into one it ooks like he has no eyes. SPOLIERS ENDED the language isnt that bad either, s**t ba****d and son of a b"""h. Great game get it now im getting uncharted 2 now. :)
Woah, that was the best game I have played in.. ever, maybe?
Has your child seen Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark or any of the other movies? This compares to them, but I choose to compare it to Ark because the end is kind of creepy...
As for good role models, you won't find many in this game.
There are some educational elements to the game, such as the puzzles that you have to solve in the first level. There is violence, and a good bit of it, but the violence is quite unrealistic and there is only a bit of blood splatter. Corpses do stay where they are, and don't disapear magically though.
There are some sexual referances, but your child wouldn't understand them unless they've seen worse...
There is a good bit of minor language in the game, but it fits into the situation the characters are in.
One character smokes a cigar, but mentions that the main protagonist has been hassling him about it..
near the end there is an old WWII german outpost where there is almost no lights and weird almost mud men ( left 4 dead 2 ) like things and they scared me big time first time i saw them.
This is an entertaining, action packed game that doesn't take itself too seriously-- it reminds me of a great Indiana Jones movie. I have watched my 12 year old son ( he's almost 13, and is quite mature) play this game, and it is like watching a movie!
The character is quite likeable, and the concern that the charcaters feel for each other is believable. It's just fun!
That said, the swearing is not what i would like my son to use -- but it comlpetely fits in with the story and the character's situation, and does not feel "gratuitous" at all.
There is violence as well- this is the only game my son is allowed to have that has guns ( we have not allowed him to get COD, for example), and it's a bit more violent than I would prefer-- but again, it has the same feeling as an Indiana Jones movie.
For parents who generally oppose "gun games", this one stands out in my mind as acceptable.
first of all fantastic graphics, secondly the level design is amazing, i'm not gonna say so much more because this game have so much content i could go on forever and i don't have time for that, so i'll just end by saying: BUY BUY BUY, your kids will love it, even though the second entry in the series: "Uncharted 2: Among thieves" have already been released, and: Uncharted 3: Drake's deception" is coming this fall, then this is a game worth buying, no PS3 owner has a complete collection without owning all the titles in the Uncharted series, this game is a must, all the Uncharted games are. not to vilent for mature 11-12 year olds, if immature then perhaps 13+, but 13+ is long enough regardless of immaturity. So enjoy!!!
it was pretty good, but my dad made me turn it off after watching me play it for a few minutes. he took it away, hid it and said i could have it back when i was 12 or 13. but i understand why dad dosent like it-its bloody, has lots of bad words and if you havent noticed it is violent.
Uncharted: Drake's Fortune is easily one best games I have ever played! There is violence through out the game but it's not gory, but blood does appear when you shoot a person. One character seems to always have a cigar hanging out of his mouth and there are about half a dozen mildly suggestive comments made during the game as well as the use of language such as s***, a**, h***, d***, g**d*** and both b-words. You also see a few decomposing bodies in videos. Overall a great game for older teens.
I am 12 year old girl and this game is okay for my age and personality. This is a better choice than call of duty since it is third person. Your never really close enough to see the blood. There is swearing but it's just b---h and c--p. I've heard worse at school than in this game. I'd recommend this game as a first T rated game. Come on smoking references aren't that bad!
