Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune is a combo of all of the best action platformers I’ve ever played. Nate Drake is the new Indiana Jones (without the grimy clothes and whip) in this game that includes aspects of Tomb Raider and Zelda, as well as some wild west gun slinging.
Nate is a direct descendent of Sir Francis Drake, the legendary Spanish explorer on the search for El Dorado. Nate hypothesizes that his famous ancestor faked his own death once he discovered more about El Dorado to keep the competition away. Claiming to have been buried at sea, Nate searches for Drake’s coffin. Upon finding and opening it, he discovers he was more right about Francis Drake than he originally thought. Being a treasure hunter and a prestigious hawker of antiquities, Nate sets on the trail to find the lost treasures of El Dorado.
