Uncharted 3 Is Coming Soon Enough to Have Commercials
The release date for the third adventure of Nathan Drake is still a ways off — November 1st — but that’s close enough that the commercials have started to crop up. It’s not as mindblowingly awesome as that last gameplay video, but it does show off a good portion of the cast, a few set pieces, a Jason Bourne-style parkour jump through an upper Middle Eastern building window, and more. So that’s something, I suppose. They really would have had me at “You’re going to get sucked out of a plane during a gun fight and also Sully’s back.” (Via Kotaku)
