That’s total bs. The reason why it’s not multi-platform is because Sony want to keep it exclusive to their console, so they compete with other consoles more aggressively.

I wonder if Nolan North and ND will swallow those words when he sees the craptastic sales on this game. PS3 gets zero marketing because Sony can’t afford it and adding to that it’s the loser of this console generation with the most financial losses for Sony. If you see the Sony (SNE) stock prices over the year, you know they are in grave danger. It’s not only the PlayStation division that loses out big time, the rest as well for their mediocrity.
Uncharted 3 is the most overhyped piece of software out there and the reviews only prove that. The game has the most linear experience ever, zero replay value and shabby unbalanced multiplayer. Sure the PS3 fanboys will claim it’s the cream of the crop because it’s only for their system, but that’s absolute nonsense once you played it and look back at it a couple of times. Plus the viuals look less impressive than part 2 ever did.
Another plus is the Cell processor BS he is spouting out. There are tons of developers out there that absolutely HATE that processor design and claim it is holding them back. Why on earth are 9 out of 10 multiplatform games better on the competing platforms then if the machine is so good? Sure a taylor made game like Uncharted does the trick at 30fps, but even Rage proved it can do better on multiple platforms and at double the framerate. Biased Sony influenced BS Mr.North, and YOU KNOW IT!

In reply to bigevilworldwide. The irony is the PS3 is the superior hardware with 1 exception it seems: Cross-game chat. I chat with my buddy whether he is playing a video game or watching a movie. We can be doing 2 completely different things with the only common factor that we are both online and not in the same video game. The ease of using this 1 social aspect is what makes the 360 and X-Box Live superior despite the cost.

In real world tests of utilization by independent testers they determined that the 360 has equivalent capability with the edge towards the PS3. They said the PS3 design actually hurts what a developer can get out of it. There was a lot of speculation as to why they thought the design was this way, but the people they apparently asked had no comment.

Funny. There’s two MAJOR problems with what you just wrote which just Raises the “PC tard” flag.

1 – 10 years ago, puts you in 2001. Your PC could handle the likes of Uncharted3 in 2001 eh? Funny, when people were playing stuff like Ghost Recon and Serious Sam: The First Encounter was considered high tech visuals for the time. You know, you’re totally right, This

looks EXACTLY on Par with this

2 – You contradict yourself with “The visuals in DX-11 would be mind blowing, a good example is BF3″ and ‘It’s not all about graphics”. Everyone I know whom defend the PC as their fav platform ONLY EVER talk about graphics, EVER.

Yes, an updated PC packing dual 1Gb+ video cards, 12+GB of Ram and the rest of the bells and whistles can out preform a console, It can displace high resolution and larger textures, it can process physics better, but that’s all for nothing if a gamer can sit down to his/her console and completely loose themselves in games created for said machine. There is such a wide girth of titles available on consoles that you never see on PC and if you take the outlook of “I only want the absolute top of the power chain or I don’t play it” then you’re missing out on A LOT of incredible gaming.

I’m not saying that the PC is a dead market, I’m not saying the PC isn’t important, but I am saying that just because a console doesn’t pack in the highest of specs right now, doesn’t mean you can dismiss it and claim the PC platform is the only one worth looking at.

Lastly. Everything is a damn computer. Consoles are made specfically for gaming purposes by the companies behind them, but in the end it’s all CPU, GPU, RAM and other PC components. If you look at it from that perspective, these gaming developers are getting a WHOLE LOT OF JUICE out of 512mb total system/Vram and the other parts that make up these system.s

Uncharted isn’t multiplatform… because Sony OWNS Naughty Dog. Simple. Done.
