John-ShepardWhen we first saw Uncharted running on Sony's new portable (the NGP), we were excited.
But details besides the working title of "Uncharted" were few and far between. Now, thanks to a recent interview with French site GameBlog.fr (as cited by Joystiq ) and a clarification by Sony, we've got the baseline info: Naughty Dog co-president Christophe Balestra first said the game's setting is "between the first and second Uncharted games." But in truth, according to Sony, the title features an "all-new story" that actually takes place before Uncharted: Drake's Fortune . As for more details, we don't have much longer to wait- Sony says to expect more confirmed details to arrive next week on June 2.
It's also worth noting that Balestra said the Uncharted NGP title will have more of an emphasis on exploration rather than gunfighting. Maybe it's easier to control platforming mechanics with a touch pad…
