E3 Replay: Naughty Dog demos UNCHARTED 3


One of my personal favorite moments from our E3 PlayStation live show has to be Naughty Dog’s visit. Community Strategist Arne Meyer brought along a doggie bag of Sully fries, a double quarter-pounder of Nathan Drake, and a jaw-dropping demo which premiered at our PlayStation E3 press event. You may have also seen this demo make its late-night premiere on Jimmy Fallon last night, but that was only a fraction of UNCHARTED 3: Drake’s Deception. Arne was awesome enough to walk us through the full demo and explain some of technical hurdles Naughty Dog is jumping in order to bring such an impressive demo to E3 2011.

Watch for moments when we chat about their evolved water effects engine, dynamical changing the environments around you, horseback riding, and best of all — answering your Twitter questions. Enjoy the ride.

  • GOTY! nuff said!… Waiting for the playable demo on the Store! =)

  • Finally good to see you interviewing Rey! You look different from your pic.

  • are you guys planning on a Uncharted 4? sorry for thinking to far ahead

  • @3 Yes, because we need another game with zombies–don’t forget a first-person :|

    Anyhow, awesome, looking forward to Nov, and the MP beta 8)

  • added to #11:
    I just want to see if you think this game is strong enough to have a fourth.

  • Charted 3!

  • Can’t wait for this game! Plus the Multiplayer BETA is in a couple of weeks!
    So excited for this. My older bro seen the E3 stage demo and was blown away. He had never even seen Uncharted (although I own both games-and have asked if he wants to borrow it) and he instantly said that he was going to buy it! I already preordered and am ready to go :D

  • I need this NOW!

  • Not sure I got the full feel of the game just by watching the video. It doesn’t do the hard work from the dedicated and brilliant people at Naughty Dog any justice. I suppose you’ll just have to put the demo on the PSN so we can truly appreciate it. If nothing else, it would let us enjoy it without two people talking throughout the whole thing.

  • I don’t have the Uncharted Fever like some folks around the PS Blog do, but I recognize that they’re both excellent games. That said, I’ve got to say that the E3 demonstration of Uncharted 3 made the first two look like garbage by comparison. Uncharted 3’s barely made my radar, particularly because it launches the same day as the new Elder Scrolls game, but after seeing it in action, I think I just might be catching the fever.

  • CANT WAIT!

  • its going to be awsome. cant wait

  • Can’t wait to try my hands at the game!

    Even if I’m a little worried so far about the “multiplayer competitive” part of the game so far as far as balance/fair gameplay because we can customise weapons so maybe higher levels will have better weapons (wich is not the thing to do in online competitives games imo) and because of medal kickbacks wich could be more balanced than I may think so far…

    But for ALL the other part of the game, I KNOW it WILL be AWESOME!! : ) (Story mode, Coop modes etc.)

    I like so much all these animations, little tweaks, general look of the game etc.

  • man, i need this game

  • Rather have a demo than see a demo. I already saw stuff from before E3 now it’s time for hands on.

  • @17

    you just gotta appreciate the tech behind the demo, this is what I noticed when they showed the demo at E3 they went more for a technical show in the demo rather than a fun gameplay show. Not everyone would appreciate it unless they actually gave a crap about technical stuff in games. Personally I’m a nerd and I love that stuff.

    That said, I wish they would have shown something different so that everyone would have loved it (assuming they love great games :P) I enjoyed the demo for Uncharted 2 at e3 more than this one because that one was “holy crap! I wanna do that!” good. Tech demos are nice, but not so sure that was the best route to go for e3 even if it was impressive.

  • wut is up with that stash lol

  • Couple more weeks for the beta. Can’t wait.

  • Are they doing anything different w the grenade? Looks pretty awesome btw.

  • Will the multiplayer beta be in 3D?

  • I would like to play this.

  • I CANT WAIT FOR THE U3 AND RESISTANCE BETAS..IMA HAVE A BLAST THIS SUMMER :P I JUST HOPE THAT U3 HAS 2-4 PLAYERS CO-OP ONLINE CAMPAIGN OR CO-OP MISSIONS…SOMETHINGS THAT MY FRIENDS AND I CAN NJOY WITHOUT HAVING TO SPLIT MY 52 INCH HDTV! :P

  • Jeff, Rey, and Sid for President!!!

  • I CANNOT WAIT!!!!!!!!!

  • Can’t wait for the beta!!!

    Glad to hear ‘The Drop’ will be back soon too.

  • Another perfect game!!!!!! Thanks Naughty Dog!

  • Ande, you said “sort of” twenty times.. jus sayin’ =) game looks epic, day one here! Exclusives rock my world. ALL HAIL PLAYSTATION!!!!

  • Oh my goodness!! Dude this game better not get delayed or I am gonna crack some skulls!!
    Gonna be Shweet

  • can’t wait till this game comes out.

  • FINALY!! ive been waiting for uncharted 3 since march 2011!!!! and now thave finaly shown us an official demo! YAY!!!! WOOOO! i have both uncharteds and now another!!!! WOOOOOO! lets hope for an uncharted 4 :D

  • HOT!!!

  • Pure awesomeness! can’t wait for UC3!, and multiplayer beta on June 28!

  • Hopefully weapons will be more powerful in multiplayer.. In U2 players almost need to be standing over the grenade to kill them… And sometimes it takes nearly a full clip from the AK-47 to kill people. You have to shoot players before punching or they turn around and kill you… I can’t even imagine how the single player will be though :D

  • My brother … what is up with that dastardly moustache ??

  • There is no way that I am not getting this game. Wow.

  • Rey: Would you ever consider getting a Naughty Dog tattoo?

    I love the multiplayer in Uncharted 2, and I’m looking forward to the UC3 multiplayer beta, but I’m wondering what will happen to UC2 multiplayer after UC3 launches?

    Also, will there be any cross-play with Vita? If we could have cross platform multiplayer then that would be amazing, although I wonder if the Vita could handle UC3’s multiplayer component.

    Perhaps we could have a unified UC2 / UC Vita multiplayer component :) or have a couple of game modes where all three games can play together.

  • @FisFis

    What the hell is “normal looking?” Sounds overrated.

    Do you look normal, dude?

  • That guy has an epic moustache

  • Am I the only person that is scared & kind of thinks Uncharted 3 won’t live up to the HYPE?

  • #49:

    Yup. You are.

    The only one.

    Naughty Dog always delivers.
