Tomb Raider: Underworld vs Uncharted: Drake's Fortune
Tomb Raider: Underworld
Tomb Raider: Underworld is a rather unique iteration of the age-old favorite action-adventure series featuring the fearless adventurer, Lara Croft. The game retained the franchise's love for intriguing puzzles and yet, it provided a ton of improvements in terms of adding in a dual-target system, non-linear puzzles (puzzles with multiple solutions), new abilities and tools, as well as a cool all-terrain hybrid motorbike.At the time of writing, Tomb Raider: Underworld would be celebrating its 10th anniversary next year, and as such, the game's graphics isn't exactly up to today's standards. The gameplay may feel rather clunky to some as well. However, if you really want to experience a more recent Tomb Raider that stayed true to the old puzzle-heavy format, this is the game to play.
Uncharted: Drake's Fortune
Uncharted: Drake's Fortune is an Indiana Jones-like action-adventure game where you play as Nathan Drake, a modern-day fortune hunter who had obtained a clue in the coffin of his ancestor in regard to fabled treasure of El Dorado. However, the search turned deadly when he and his team find themselves stranded on a remote island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean while being hunted by well-equipped and trained mercenaries. In this game, you'll need to not only engage your enemies in exciting, cooperative gunfights using the environment for cover or even close-quarter combat; you'll also need to decipher the maps and ancient artifacts that you find, hoping to reveal the secrets that the island has hidden for over 400 years old.This is the game that has propelled the franchise to fame due to its incredibly immersive storyline and setting and also the smooth and frankly awesome gameplay. If you own a Playstation, this is definitely a game series you'll want to get.
