I remember getting Vita for this game and enjoyed it for what it was worth. I wish we had gotten a ps4 port of this game as I would have loved to see bluepoints magic and enhancements like they did for the collection. Fun fact: Nathan's outfit in this game makes an appearance in uncharted 3s mp but that's it.
I owned a vita it's an underrated portable console in my opinion. I enjoyed golden abyss, the killzone game made for the vita was really good it was probably my favorite game in the series, and I put hundreds of hours in persona 4 golden and persona 3 portable I was so helplessly addicted to those 2 games
goldens why i bought a vito brobro i started with og 4 when i was like 9 couldnt even get past kanji cause i had no idea what grinding meant lol then i picked up a vita off a friend when i was 14 (jm 21 now) so that was a great time and got me into the mainline smt series cause of it the vita holds a very special place in my heart
This was the first Uncharted game I played, I never understood why nobody talked about it, it felt like I was the only one who had ever played it. It was only later that I realized that it was not part of the main series of games, and funny enough what that did was that I don't see Golden Abyss as a downgrade, since thats the prototypical Uncharted experience I had for years, its more like I see the other four titles as upgrades.
Your not alone as this was my first uncharted game too, I even remember reading the manual over and over again since the ps vita I ordered didn't come with a SD card so I was either doing that or playing welcome park.
I think it was set before Drake’s Fortune. Funnily enough Drake was the most like an actual treasure hunter in this game compared to the four main Uncharted games
So glad you decided to cover Golden Abyss, I don't think I'll ever play it unless it's somehow ported and like you said, that goes for pretty much all of us. Also I truly think your videos are getting funnier with every one, genuinely got some good chuckles out of me lol. It's so cool seeing you take the feedback to heart and always improving, phenomenal work as always!
I really liked this one, specially for the characters. I had no problems with the gyro controls, in fact, I find it bothersome that the other, bigger, titles don't have them. And ah, yes, that back light puzzle, I thought it was pretty clever, I did find myself doing this on a train. I used to commute daily so I had found ways to have seat for myself every day and play whatever I was playing in peace. Nothing worse than being on a boss fight and having someone wanting to skim by you in or out of the seat. That and also I don't give an F for what others think. So I enjoyed it. I still have my vita and my games, I will eventually revisiting it.
I remember this being my first ever Uncharted game, got this with a PSVita once for my Christmas; actually have fond memories of playing it because that was one of my last Christmas nights where we had a decent amount of family. From what I remember I did enjoy it, it’s sure no Thieve’s End but for what it was it sure made younger me seriously happy.
@@pickleeggs3340 Actually yeah, since then About 4/5ths of my family died, there’s only my close family and a wee bit of my mum’s side left, though I kinda lack the sight to see how that’s relevant to this.
I'm glad that I haven't run into the scenario of being called a "man child" for playing video games at work. I have literally brought a PS5 and a TV to my job so I could play during downtime and I haven't had that happen. I'm sure that still happens for some people, but I think that the notion that video games are only for children is certainly dying.
Great vid! This is easily the least-covered game in the series and it's most appreciated that you went out of your way to cover it on the hardware it released on, so many thanks for that one Aqua! I've been subbed to your channel for awhile now and when I'm on RUclips I often have the same thought that I should have commented here months ago but better late than never hopefully! I just can't think of another RUclips channel that's been more impressive with the degree at which you have improved here. You're personality brings your vids levels above most essay-style content out there and really makes these an absolute joy to watch no matter what game you're covering. Some channels are never so lucky to find their voice the way you have and that's no doubt in large part to the discipline and commitment it must have taken for you to put in the work to do so. I really appreciate the effort and it's always exciting to see you upload!
This made me so happy, honestly!Thank you so much for your kind words and I’m glad that you’ve supported me long enough for me to continue growing and improving. I’ll do my best to keep doing better, and again, thank you! 🙏❤️
@@ThatBoyAqua No problem, you deserve all the credit! The work you put in shows so hard that it needs to be said, damn crime to do otherwise! Appreciate ya taking the time to read my comment, take care & can't wait for the next vid! (whenever that may be lol no pressure obviously)
I literally played finished this game for the 1000+ time yesterday, ps vita is so underated and its a shame they never brought it to its full potential. I remember being a uncharted fan but not having my own ps3 so when this came out it was heaven on earth.
Correct me if I'm wrong but the ps3 slim was at the time only slightly more expensive than the ps vita so at that point you could've just bought a ps3 and played the entire Uncharted trilogy and many, many more great games instead of just one game. But what do I know, maybe you really wanted the portability of the vita.
I'm one of the three people that had a Vita! I had one! I actually got this game because I loved Uncharted, and as a kid, it didn't disappoint me. I don't know what it would be like now, but I liked the gameplay and loved the story back then. Glad you're covering this one.
@@ThatBoyAqua I swear if Uncharted 2 isn't number 1!! Than I'll respect your opinion like a normal person cause its just a game that we'll all enjoy more if we're respectful
I liked the collectables, especially the Jade carvings, cause they often had some description of the ancient civilisation I was discovering. This game made me feel the most as a historian in an Uncharted game and I enjoyed that a lot
I remember this one, loved playing it. Personally didn't mind the finger rubbing and the controls. there were also games like little big planet fifa and lego batman 2 3, lego marvel, etc... i kinda wish they kept going with the vita, it had potential to compete with the nintendo
@@antonioescamilla5553 yeah, if they don't put the effort into putting some system selling exclusives on it, it's not going to sell well. i would have bought one just for the trails of cold steel games if i had known what they were at the time. i just got all 4 games on ps4 and am loving them, the entire trails series are the best rpg games ever imo, i just can't get enough of them.
As they say, "it was ahead of its time". Like it really was. But I think the need to purchase the system separately to perform cool features like in Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time's 'thief vision' was what killed it. It made it seem like some weird accessory instead of a console. Especially when you had to purchase the game two times to use on both your handheld and stationary console instead of having it in one like with PS4->PS5 upgrades. Switch avoided the double-purchase option and accessory advertising, by literally advertising the product as a mobile console. Not just some unique, gimmick-based handheld. **Regardless, I'm still bewildered by the fact I can do remote play with my vita on modern games like Spider-Man, Injustice 2, Assassins Creed, and many others with the vita despite its digital store's demise and overall lack of attention.
fun fact, a PSTV will do for this game due to all the plugins made for it. Even the light source puzzle works because a plugin has been made that just displays a bright picture to the game when prompted.
4:00 About being mocked by coworkers for playing your Switch openly - I bet it's because they feel inadequate/slighted as you're openly not engaging with them, and this is how it's coming out. Very childish and insecure. I reckon the only way to get em to stop is to slag them right back. "Awww Baby needs attention? Sod off elsewhere"
My first Vita game along with UMvC3. Also Gravity Rush while great didn't carry the Vita, that was Persona 4 Golden. The Vita does have plenty of great games such as Killzone Mercenary, the Armored Core 3 Trilogy, God Eater 2, Soul Sacrifice Delta etc
I'm really surprised you didn't go into more detail about the collectibles. Sure, the tie ins with the card game are lame, but Golden Abyss had a really cool structure where the collectibles were much more involved and puzzle-driven. You would often find parts to a whole set over the course of multiple levels that would piece together and give more detail to the world. The collectibles felt more like little side quests - even if they were never super in-depth, it was nice seeing them be more involved than just pressing triangle on a shiny spot on the ground. While definitely not the best Uncharted game, I think Golden Abyss was pretty cool for what it was. I hope someday we see it released in some form as a downloadable title. (Hopefully without the Vita-specific gimmicks.)
I agree. I also liked that Nate would actually comment on some of the treasure you collect with voiced dialogue and all. It stands out compared to the rest of the games and I was disappointed U4 didn't go in that direction.
I remember I once took my Wii U console to work, to just plug in the console on one side of the room, so I can play on the little screen. I have never been belittled for playing any portable console 😕 I'm sorry that happen to you.
When they first announced the Legacy of Thieves ‘collection’ , I genuinely thought we were getting the entire package of Uncharted games on the one disc which included the Golden Abyss, so you can imagine my disappointment when it was only Uncharted 4 and The Lost Legacy. Nintendo found a way to make Skyward Sword work on the Switch despite all the Wii’s gimmick so I am sure Sony can do the same with this!
I’ve always wanted a port of this game for console, especially with the touch pad that’s on the ps4 and ps5 controllers. considering I just learned tearaway got a port and that was also one of my favourite games on the vita, I think we should get a port of this definitely, with a change to the light source puzzle of course
Thank you for this! 😁 I loved this game as a kid and I went back to play it again a few weeks ago and was sad to see that there seemingly wasn’t ANY retrospectives or essays on this game, only short reviews from around the time the game came out - really glad someone had finally covered this game 😊😁
This was my first vita and uncharted game and I loved it. Next to Uncharted 3 this is my other favourite in the series. I frequently replay it, now I am really close to get the platinum trophy.
I'm one of those who actually owns a vita and played this game a long time ago and I'd love to see it ported to console with improved framerate, would buy it instantly. Btw great video, keep up the goodwork
I played a lot on my Vita from 2011 to 2018 because I had to commute to work by train on a daily basis for 1,5-2 hours each day. And when I wasn't sleeping I played on Vita. And during that time I got a ton of platinum trophies for all kinds of games. I tried out dozens of indi-games and found some of my new favorite franchises like Danganronpa, Gravity Rush or Persona, which I wouldn't have tried out if I didn't have a Vita. And I really hate the argument people bring up all the time, that you can't play triple A games on the go, because mobile games have to be designed around "quick 5-15 minute sessions" or something like that. It doesn't make any sense. Imo, the souls-borne games are "designed around quick sessions" because they save the game with every step. But that doesn't count for artificial reasons. But the Vita and Switch have a great little feature. It works even the best on Vita because of how instantaneous it is implemented there (much better than on the Switch). It is the sleep mode. You can press the power button short and the screen goes off. And when you press it again, you stand exactly where you were before. Or you can also use the home button to instantly freeze the game in place. It works much better than on any other console I've ever used. There were situations where I looked out the window and noticed that the train had already stopped at my destination and I had to put my vita into my pocket fast and run out the train. And thanks to how fast it is, I never had problems with that. Golden Abyss was awesome for me. I was already an Uncharted fan and it was the perfect game for me. (but yes, the light-puzzle was BS)
I really hope they make a Remastered or remake of this game so that we could play Gold are the abyss they could literally just fix any mechanic from the Vita and just change it to controller plus it would literally be a free Uncharted game for us to buy not having to worry about making a story or anything so I’m surprised they haven’t done this yet
Played this game for the first time last year and I really enjoyed it. I really liked the touch of Nathan commenting on every treasure he found. That's one thing I wish that was in the console games.
I picked up a Vita just before the price for it and the games went up. I played this game to completion multiple times. I enjoyed it a lot. For what it is, it's great! Btw when I first got the Vita in my hands, I had the same issue with the sticks, but after a while I got used to it. So my advice is to give it time, more than a few hours. This is coming from someone with big hands who also plays on a PS4 with a normal controller, and a keyboard and mouse on PC. It gets better with time. Since I play all 3, now I have muscle memory developed for each control type, so when I've been playing on PC or PS4 and I pick up the Vita, I don't notice the sticks being small anymore.
I own this game on my vita and it is sooo good, it sucks that not that much people talk about it. It's like the ghost of the uncharted series, the one left behind
This is obviously a very niche answer, but in reference to the "who was the vita made for question" it was invaluable to me when I left my home overseas to go to boarding school where we didn't have any consoles and limited internet access, then following that I spent 9 months in the Zimbabwean bush and it was invaluable in getting that little gaming kick when it was needed, I remember staying up late whilst hearing the sounds of the bush around me playing the borderlands 2 port and golden abyss on my vita. So maybe it was made for my very specific demographic haha
I still find this game to be very impressive a handheld title. It manages to recreate a console uncharted experience with little compromises. However, the biggest issue is that it forces you to use certain vita features in really gimmicky ways for no other reason than because it’s a launch title.
A real shame that this didn't get added to any Uncharted collection. The touchscreen stuff can be dealt with on the PS4/PS5's controller touchpad. And the camera light gimmick could be removed entirely and no one who didn't play the original would be the wiser.
i always wondered why i could never find someone talking about this, back in the day when the vita came out i played this and it was infact my first uncharted game lmao, nobody has ever talked about it until now. major nostalgia right now
This was my first uncharted game and i loved it, gave me my first platinum and have since gone on to get one in each uncharted game. This game is definitely a hidden gem.
was watching your uncharted 4 obsession video while playing this game on my red vita and had to pause my game and watch man please keep up the uncharted stuff if you feel like there’s more you can tackle. the way you talk about these games and articulate yourself reminds me of myself and makes me feel less weird about my obsessions for these games and last of us
None of the games have a "supernatural force". They often make you believe they do at first only to have a twist that explains said force practically later. It's probably a play on the supernatural parts in the Indiana Jones franchise. If I didn't know better I'd say he missed the final two hours of Uncharted 2 and 3. And most Uncharted encounters can be finished entirely in stealth. But good luck making it through the ones in 4.
i played this game from start to end like 3 times, on my 4th run now, the only problem i have is that bounties and treasures dont save globally so you cant start a new game or else you'll lose every collectible
this is honestly the biggest crime Naughty Dog ever committed...and i stand by that. they could easily redesign Golden Abyss on the PS4 and PS5 or whatever...but they can't be bothered. they wouldn't even have to change the story at all because i have seen GA from beginning to end and it's perfect in terms of chronology with the others...it's set before Drake's Fortune and is actually a prequel to all the other Nathan Drake games for those that don't know. all they need to do is alter the gameplay so it doesn't include motion and Vita mechanics.
This game is pretty much is lost in the memory of uncharted fans and was never really mentioned by any other game apart from an Easter egg in Uncharted 4. But it's nice to see what and how this game ended up being, and takes us back to simpler times. Great video as always. Can't wait for more
I keep my Vita around partly because of this game. The gyro aiming is a huge help to make up for the poor thumbstick aiming. Also, I've never been mocked for playing Vita or Switch in public.
this game was going to a part of the Nathen drake collection but it got scraped because Bluepoint could not figure out how to make thing like the holding the paper to the light work on consoles and they probably did not have the time nor money to redo cutscenes outright which is disappointing but understandable.
most people who mock others for playing a video game are people who are not only boaring and only thing they rather do is watch tv and considers that fun, lol and all they do is complain about someone playing a video game they mostly dont play
I still own a Vita...purely because of this game. And I will never sell it...purely because of this game. Uncharted is one of my favorite game series and I really enjoyed Golden Abyss.
there's actually a ps4 controller addon for the vita that you can use for many games if you can't use the psvita's button, it even supports touch on the ps4 controller.
i played the trilogy on ps4 and finished uncharted 3 a few months before I played 4. it was an incredible experience. lost legacy was fine, but this could potentially ruin the series for me, so I’m grateful I didn’t know this existed until now.
Try doing the light puzzle on a very crowded New York train and having to hold it up to the light above you. Phone lights weren’t really a thing then. LoL.
I never played Uncharted, so just now i realize Drake just snap their necks in stealth. In a shootout you can give him the excuse that it's him or them, but he has the option to just knock the guy out and still he kills. Not even Joel is like that, Nathan Drake is a fucking maniac
I played this game on my PS Vita, it was my fav game on that thing. It felt like Uncharted 2 with Uncharted 1 DNA. I wish they remaster it some day for console
this was the first game i got for my vita and set my expectations for what quality of games the system would be getting in the future. sadly only a few titles where actually at this level so i ended up selling my vita. I do regret it because at the time I wasn't into jrpgs, but now i am and I realized that I missed out on a lot of titles i'll probably like. But it is true that i won't really be dropping the money to get a vita now and sony closing the stores and giving up on handhelds just means I'll probably forever miss out on some titles until emulation is good enough in the future and i pirate the games
I’m sorry but I laughed so hard when you showed your audio about you being pissed that you had to start the fight over again 🤣🤣🤣 I feel like that’s me in every uncharted game when I would keep dying lol
For a port, I think all you would have to do would be replace that puzzle that requires you to hold your camera up to the light with a cut scene. Obviously, that’s not the only thing, you know updated graphics etc. but I think most of even the touchscreen stuff could be done using the touchpad on the dual shock four and dual sense.
Im replaying golden abyss currently after watching the movie for the second time. I always like the story and enjoyed how grounded it is. I like the Vita gimmicks especially the charcoal rubbings. Im currently on chapter 18
Despite what I see a lot on the internet I had a negative experience with my vita. Games were rare for me to come by and I was too young to understand jailbreaking. However I am considering buying one and jailbreaking it to play some of the titles I missed out on as a kid.
@@oz7586 I got mine around 2014. Don’t know how the emulation scene was back then but my only option to get games was to buy them. As I said in the first comment they were hard to find for me back then. That’s why I had a negative experience. I didn’t know about the emulation until probably 2018 after I sold it
it's stupidly easy to jailbreak the Vita these days. honestly the only things you'd be shelling out for would be for 1) the console itself, 2) a good SD card and 3) the SD2Vita adapter (optional: the charging dock, a must for the fat model imo). after you mod it you'll have access to everything for free. if you have the spare cash, I'd say go for it.
@@sunsetman22 Yeah I’ve been watching a couple on eBay for a while, might get one soon. Recently modded a Wii and have been having a great time playing GameCube and Wii games. Once I get that itch to play a handheld, ill cave in and buy one. Cant you jailbreak one through the internet nowadays?
I bought a vita just to play this game because it was the only uncharted game I didn't play. You can mod the vita to use a PS4 controller or any other controller. You can also use vita to transfer the video to the laptop screen and then to a TV too(bigger screen). I did both and after that, it felt like a regular console Uncharted game.
Funny to see this video in my recommendations as I just started replaying it the other week. I highly suggest getting raised stick grips, greatly improves precision aim.

as some one who played this pretty close to release and who spoke to other people about it (granted it was on forums and game lobbies) the reseption for this game was surp[risingly good with a fair amount of hype for a hoped ps4 port overall i think you did a good job explainig the appeal and falt of the game but i will say the automatic climbing was much less of a con considering that most of the people i spoke about it back then either didn't notice or didn't bring it up i personally didn't notice it till my second play through there was a lot of whining that chase and dante should have been Chloe and Harry from Uncharted 2 mostly cause there was this rumor going around that the game was going to be about how Nate and Chloe meet for the first time also a lot of the gimmicks such as the swiping and the light usage were excused as launch title syndrome and not particularly intrusive (which personnaly looking back at the game they for the most part weren't) and were justified with the next Uncharted vita will "ignore and/or fix them" there was a loud group of "hardcore" playuers (couldn't tell you if it was a mojority or a minority since i mostly keep to my corner of the fandom) that hated the game since it "dumbed" down the gunplay with making the shooting easier and making granades irrelevant personally i loved the game at the time and have fond memories but honestly at the end of the day aside from chase while i'd be sad i don't think i'd mind to much if Goldenm Abyss was stuck on the vita for the rest of time
The irony of being insulted for playing a handheld game console in public by people who will shamelessly play 200 hours of Candy Crush on a weekly basis will never not be funny to me.
Every complaint mentioned here has a simple fix for playing this game on the Vita Tv or elsewhere. Furthermore if you stop doing anything because of what people think or verbally express then you have a larger issue at hand you should address first. Life is short. Play what you want but get the facts rights, it's your responsibility as a RUclipsr.
I got a vita just for this game, did sooo much work for it that perhaps I might be over justifying it to myself, but when you ask who this console was for, I think this console and game were made for me. See this handheld may not have worked for me if it came out now, I barely use my switch for anything other than a distraction when my phone is charging. But back when I got this, it was the most needed thing I have ever had at that point. See I was an only child with parents who weren't together. So on one hand I had the fun dad who had a ps3 with all the Uncharted games, and back at my moms house, I didn't have anything. My mom was the primary custody holder, so I went long periods of time without seeing my dad or the lesser extent my ps3. I therefore could only use my vita to supplement any enjoyment from my playstation that I was usually missing out on. Games like UC Golden Abyss, Gravity Rush, Little Big Planet, Playstation Allstars, etc. was all that I had until I could get back to the real fun on my Ps3. So in short, while everyone shits on the vita regularly, I used it as an oasis of gaming when I was in a desert of boredom.
Damn I saw somewhere footage from this game but never knew what uncharted game was since nobody seems to talk about it. Also great video, you got a new subscriber
Fun fact the light puzzle actually can be emulated, there is a plugin for the Vita Tv for both this and Liberation that provides a bright white image that finishes the puzzles. The biggest issue is the emulator Vita 3k is nowhere near any real playability
I never understood why this game was not ported to PS4 like how Ghost of Sparta and Chains of Olympus or Gravity Rush. Pretty much all the Vita gimmicks can be worked around to either remove or fit on the dual sense
So this is technically playable on PSTV, but it's one of the few whitelisted games, meaning you have to have homebrew to get it to run properly as well as get something to remove the HDCP protection. The nice thing with this game is the PS4 controller shows that this game could do well with a PS4 or PS5 port, utilizing the touchpad for any of the parts requiring the touchpad. I would love to see a remake for the game, but at this rate it doesn't seem like it would come to fruition, especially when Bend was worried about being absolved into Naughty Dog when there was talks of another spin-off featuring Sully. In terms of the collectibles, part of the thing that was missed was just how many there were/ Yes, they helped give new cards and stat boosts to those cards for Fight for Fortune, but there were also a massive number of collectibles to find. How many? Around 200... The only gripe with some of the collectibles is some occur right at the end of a chapter and if you accidentally walk into the trigger for the end of the chapter, there's nothing you can do in that moment to rectify it other than go back through chapter select and replay the whole entire chapter. I definitely recommend fans of Uncharted to give the game a play if they're able to get their hands on it or watch a no-commentary playthrough. It may not be the best Uncharted game, but it's still a damn good one.
There's also the Uncharted: Fight for Fortune game on Vita which is even harder to get since there is no physical copy and it's been delisted and for those who own it, they can't play online because online servers were taken down without any semblance or warning from the developers (Bend Studios). I still own the demo miraculously but Bend did everyone real dirty.
Will you be doing a Lost Legacy video at some point? I also want to say I got made respect for you covering Uncharted and inFAMOUS, they were the first two games I ever played and I feel like they’re heavily underrepresented in the mainstream
I loved this game. I played on my down time when I worked at a library - there was a lot of downtime at the library. One my first platinum trophies too

I love the game, but I'm experiencing my touch screen being unresponsive while playing the game. Have any ideas on how to fix it?
I remember this being my first ever Uncharted game, got this with a PSVita once for my Christmas; actually have fond memories of playing it because that was one of my last Christmas nights where we had a decent amount of family.
From what I remember I did enjoy it, it’s sure no Thieve’s End but for what it was it sure made younger me seriously happy.

Great vid! This is easily the least-covered game in the series and it's most appreciated that you went out of your way to cover it on the hardware it released on, so many thanks for that one Aqua!
I've been subbed to your channel for awhile now and when I'm on RUclips I often have the same thought that I should have commented here months ago but better late than never hopefully! I just can't think of another RUclips channel that's been more impressive with the degree at which you have improved here. You're personality brings your vids levels above most essay-style content out there and really makes these an absolute joy to watch no matter what game you're covering. Some channels are never so lucky to find their voice the way you have and that's no doubt in large part to the discipline and commitment it must have taken for you to put in the work to do so. I really appreciate the effort and it's always exciting to see you upload!
This made me so happy, honestly!Thank you so much for your kind words and I’m glad that you’ve supported me long enough for me to continue growing and improving. I’ll do my best to keep doing better, and again, thank you! 🙏❤️
@@ThatBoyAqua No problem, you deserve all the credit! The work you put in shows so hard that it needs to be said, damn crime to do otherwise! Appreciate ya taking the time to read my comment, take care & can't wait for the next vid! (whenever that may be lol no pressure obviously)
I literally played finished this game for the 1000+ time yesterday, ps vita is so underated and its a shame they never brought it to its full potential. I remember being a uncharted fan but not having my own ps3 so when this came out it was heaven on earth.
vita is still good I still play mine got it when it 2012 or 13
@@gamerX-wk7ct yes me too, its amazing that the battery doesnt break when you dont charge it for months or even a year. Its such a solid console.
Correct me if I'm wrong but the ps3 slim was at the time only slightly more expensive than the ps vita so at that point you could've just bought a ps3 and played the entire Uncharted trilogy and many, many more great games instead of just one game. But what do I know, maybe you really wanted the portability of the vita.
I actually thought the gyro controls on the vita were good for aiming , since the thumb sticks aren’t that precise.
Gyro aiming is what made most of the vita FPS games playable
I'm one of the three people that had a Vita! I had one! I actually got this game because I loved Uncharted, and as a kid, it didn't disappoint me. I don't know what it would be like now, but I liked the gameplay and loved the story back then. Glad you're covering this one.
Will you do a ranking for these games and for AC once you’ve reviewed them all?
Yes 100%
@@ThatBoyAqua NICE looking forward to it!!!!!
@@ThatBoyAqua I swear if Uncharted 2 isn't number 1!! Than I'll respect your opinion like a normal person cause its just a game that we'll all enjoy more if we're respectful
@@FNComicGuy I love this comment
Assassin's Creed 2 and Revelations are the best AC games in the series
I was very suprised they didn’t include it with the remastered collection…
Loves my vita, the Ratchet and Clank trilogy is amazing on there!
I liked the collectables, especially the Jade carvings, cause they often had some description of the ancient civilisation I was discovering. This game made me feel the most as a historian in an Uncharted game and I enjoyed that a lot
I remember this one, loved playing it. Personally didn't mind the finger rubbing and the controls. there were also games like little big planet fifa and lego batman 2 3, lego marvel, etc...
i kinda wish they kept going with the vita, it had potential to compete with the nintendo
The vita was a Good machine but was a lack of faith from Sony
@@antonioescamilla5553 yeah, if they don't put the effort into putting some system selling exclusives on it, it's not going to sell well. i would have bought one just for the trails of cold steel games if i had known what they were at the time. i just got all 4 games on ps4 and am loving them, the entire trails series are the best rpg games ever imo, i just can't get enough of them.
As they say, "it was ahead of its time". Like it really was. But I think the need to purchase the system separately to perform cool features like in Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time's 'thief vision' was what killed it. It made it seem like some weird accessory instead of a console. Especially when you had to purchase the game two times to use on both your handheld and stationary console instead of having it in one like with PS4->PS5 upgrades.
Switch avoided the double-purchase option and accessory advertising, by literally advertising the product as a mobile console. Not just some unique, gimmick-based handheld.
**Regardless, I'm still bewildered by the fact I can do remote play with my vita on modern games like Spider-Man, Injustice 2, Assassins Creed, and many others with the vita despite its digital store's demise and overall lack of attention.
fun fact, a PSTV will do for this game due to all the plugins made for it. Even the light source puzzle works because a plugin has been made that just displays a bright picture to the game when prompted.
4:00 About being mocked by coworkers for playing your Switch openly - I bet it's because they feel inadequate/slighted as you're openly not engaging with them, and this is how it's coming out. Very childish and insecure. I reckon the only way to get em to stop is to slag them right back. "Awww Baby needs attention? Sod off elsewhere"
My first Vita game along with UMvC3.
Also Gravity Rush while great didn't carry the Vita, that was Persona 4 Golden.
The Vita does have plenty of great games such as Killzone Mercenary, the Armored Core 3 Trilogy, God Eater 2, Soul Sacrifice Delta etc
I was just playing UMvC3! Vitas been my go to right now for some reason.. I’m glad I took care of it
Nobody ever seems to mention lbp vita, the best vita game (imo) and the best lbp game
I'm really surprised you didn't go into more detail about the collectibles. Sure, the tie ins with the card game are lame, but Golden Abyss had a really cool structure where the collectibles were much more involved and puzzle-driven. You would often find parts to a whole set over the course of multiple levels that would piece together and give more detail to the world. The collectibles felt more like little side quests - even if they were never super in-depth, it was nice seeing them be more involved than just pressing triangle on a shiny spot on the ground. While definitely not the best Uncharted game, I think Golden Abyss was pretty cool for what it was. I hope someday we see it released in some form as a downloadable title. (Hopefully without the Vita-specific gimmicks.)
I agree. I also liked that Nate would actually comment on some of the treasure you collect with voiced dialogue and all. It stands out compared to the rest of the games and I was disappointed U4 didn't go in that direction.
I remember I once took my Wii U console to work, to just plug in the console on one side of the room, so I can play on the little screen.
I have never been belittled for playing any portable console 😕 I'm sorry that happen to you.
It’s all good I quit after not too long lol
When they first announced the Legacy of Thieves ‘collection’ , I genuinely thought we were getting the entire package of Uncharted games on the one disc which included the Golden Abyss, so you can imagine my disappointment when it was only Uncharted 4 and The Lost Legacy.
Nintendo found a way to make Skyward Sword work on the Switch despite all the Wii’s gimmick so I am sure Sony can do the same with this!
To be fair you couldn’t put every Uncharted game on one disc but i know what you mean.
@@renato898 they could just put it in two disks? Infamous collection on PS3 had two one for each
I’ve always wanted a port of this game for console, especially with the touch pad that’s on the ps4 and ps5 controllers. considering I just learned tearaway got a port and that was also one of my favourite games on the vita, I think we should get a port of this definitely, with a change to the light source puzzle of course
your story at 4:00 about the lunch break gamer hit way to close to home because i used to use my vita during lunch break
Thank you for this! 😁 I loved this game as a kid and I went back to play it again a few weeks ago and was sad to see that there seemingly wasn’t ANY retrospectives or essays on this game, only short reviews from around the time the game came out - really glad someone had finally covered this game 😊😁
Lol. This was my first Uncharted game. I freaking love it.
Same, I'm kinda nostalgic for it now since it's what got me into the series in the first place.
This was my first vita and uncharted game and I loved it. Next to Uncharted 3 this is my other favourite in the series. I frequently replay it, now I am really close to get the platinum trophy.
I'm one of those who actually owns a vita and played this game a long time ago and I'd love to see it ported to console with improved framerate, would buy it instantly.
Btw great video, keep up the goodwork
I played a lot on my Vita from 2011 to 2018 because I had to commute to work by train on a daily basis for 1,5-2 hours each day. And when I wasn't sleeping I played on Vita. And during that time I got a ton of platinum trophies for all kinds of games. I tried out dozens of indi-games and found some of my new favorite franchises like Danganronpa, Gravity Rush or Persona, which I wouldn't have tried out if I didn't have a Vita.
And I really hate the argument people bring up all the time, that you can't play triple A games on the go, because mobile games have to be designed around "quick 5-15 minute sessions" or something like that. It doesn't make any sense. Imo, the souls-borne games are "designed around quick sessions" because they save the game with every step. But that doesn't count for artificial reasons.
But the Vita and Switch have a great little feature. It works even the best on Vita because of how instantaneous it is implemented there (much better than on the Switch). It is the sleep mode. You can press the power button short and the screen goes off. And when you press it again, you stand exactly where you were before. Or you can also use the home button to instantly freeze the game in place. It works much better than on any other console I've ever used. There were situations where I looked out the window and noticed that the train had already stopped at my destination and I had to put my vita into my pocket fast and run out the train. And thanks to how fast it is, I never had problems with that.
Golden Abyss was awesome for me. I was already an Uncharted fan and it was the perfect game for me. (but yes, the light-puzzle was BS)
I really hope they make a Remastered or remake of this game so that we could play Gold are the abyss they could literally just fix any mechanic from the Vita and just change it to controller plus it would literally be a free Uncharted game for us to buy not having to worry about making a story or anything so I’m surprised they haven’t done this yet
Played this game for the first time last year and I really enjoyed it. I really liked the touch of Nathan commenting on every treasure he found. That's one thing I wish that was in the console games.
I picked up a Vita just before the price for it and the games went up. I played this game to completion multiple times. I enjoyed it a lot. For what it is, it's great! Btw when I first got the Vita in my hands, I had the same issue with the sticks, but after a while I got used to it. So my advice is to give it time, more than a few hours. This is coming from someone with big hands who also plays on a PS4 with a normal controller, and a keyboard and mouse on PC. It gets better with time. Since I play all 3, now I have muscle memory developed for each control type, so when I've been playing on PC or PS4 and I pick up the Vita, I don't notice the sticks being small anymore.
Bro what kinda environment you working in where you're getting called a nerd?
I own this game on my vita and it is sooo good, it sucks that not that much people talk about it. It's like the ghost of the uncharted series, the one left behind
This is obviously a very niche answer, but in reference to the "who was the vita made for question" it was invaluable to me when I left my home overseas to go to boarding school where we didn't have any consoles and limited internet access, then following that I spent 9 months in the Zimbabwean bush and it was invaluable in getting that little gaming kick when it was needed, I remember staying up late whilst hearing the sounds of the bush around me playing the borderlands 2 port and golden abyss on my vita. So maybe it was made for my very specific demographic haha
I still find this game to be very impressive a handheld title. It manages to recreate a console uncharted experience with little compromises. However, the biggest issue is that it forces you to use certain vita features in really gimmicky ways for no other reason than because it’s a launch title.
A real shame that this didn't get added to any Uncharted collection. The touchscreen stuff can be dealt with on the PS4/PS5's controller touchpad. And the camera light gimmick could be removed entirely and no one who didn't play the original would be the wiser.
i always wondered why i could never find someone talking about this, back in the day when the vita came out i played this and it was infact my first uncharted game lmao, nobody has ever talked about it until now. major nostalgia right now
actually you can if you use a ps4 controller you can use gyroscope
This was my first uncharted game and i loved it, gave me my first platinum and have since gone on to get one in each uncharted game. This game is definitely a hidden gem.
was watching your uncharted 4 obsession video while playing this game on my red vita and had to pause my game and watch man please keep up the uncharted stuff if you feel like there’s more you can tackle. the way you talk about these games and articulate yourself reminds me of myself and makes me feel less weird about my obsessions for these games and last of us
None of the games have a "supernatural force". They often make you believe they do at first only to have a twist that explains said force practically later. It's probably a play on the supernatural parts in the Indiana Jones franchise.
If I didn't know better I'd say he missed the final two hours of Uncharted 2 and 3.
And most Uncharted encounters can be finished entirely in stealth. But good luck making it through the ones in 4.
If you want a true portable UC experience, get a steam deck and legacy collection.
Nice video, some Syphon Filter retrospective?
(It also made by Bend Studio)
i played this game from start to end like 3 times, on my 4th run now, the only problem i have is that bounties and treasures dont save globally so you cant start a new game or else you'll lose every collectible
this is honestly the biggest crime Naughty Dog ever committed...and i stand by that. they could easily redesign Golden Abyss on the PS4 and PS5 or whatever...but they can't be bothered. they wouldn't even have to change the story at all because i have seen GA from beginning to end and it's perfect in terms of chronology with the others...it's set before Drake's Fortune and is actually a prequel to all the other Nathan Drake games for those that don't know. all they need to do is alter the gameplay so it doesn't include motion and Vita mechanics.
It does have a soft spot for me, and personally I think Bend should have kept making more uncharted games if not on the Vita, then on the main console
This game is pretty much is lost in the memory of uncharted fans and was never really mentioned by any other game apart from an Easter egg in Uncharted 4. But it's nice to see what and how this game ended up being, and takes us back to simpler times. Great video as always. Can't wait for more
This was my first Uncharted game, its what made me buy the trilogy on PS3
I bought the Vita for Persona 4 Golden
I keep my Vita around partly because of this game. The gyro aiming is a huge help to make up for the poor thumbstick aiming.
Also, I've never been mocked for playing Vita or Switch in public.
this game was going to a part of the Nathen drake collection but it got scraped because Bluepoint could not figure out how to make thing like the holding the paper to the light work on consoles and they probably did not have the time nor money to redo cutscenes outright which is disappointing but understandable.
most people who mock others for playing a video game are people who are not only boaring and only thing they rather do is watch tv and considers that fun, lol and all they do is complain about someone playing a video game they mostly dont play
I still own a Vita...purely because of this game. And I will never sell it...purely because of this game. Uncharted is one of my favorite game series and I really enjoyed Golden Abyss.
I’m going back through this game and decided to go for the platinum trophy, I am actually really enjoying it I wish it didn’t get such a bad rep
there's actually a ps4 controller addon for the vita that you can use for many games if you can't use the psvita's button, it even supports touch on the ps4 controller.
ur take on the uncharted series is my all time fav. Eagerly waiting for the 4th and lost legacy.
I remember playing this on my old ps vita,the nostalgia hits really hard
THIS game was my intro to uncharted and its the best thing thats happened to me
This was actually my first Uncharted game as I didn't own a PS3 until 2013 that I bought just to play The Last of Us
I loved uncharted so much that I bought a Vita last year to play this game. I have no regrets
i played the trilogy on ps4 and finished uncharted 3 a few months before I played 4. it was an incredible experience. lost legacy was fine, but this could potentially ruin the series for me, so I’m grateful I didn’t know this existed until now.
I’m a die hard uncharted fan and I thought Lost Legacy was dope as fuck.
I have extremely fond memories of the Vita. I had most of my early online social experiences on there with new friends on PSN and party chat etc
Try doing the light puzzle on a very crowded New York train and having to hold it up to the light above you. Phone lights weren’t really a thing then. LoL.
When you said Mark Walhburg should play Dante it just reminds me the movie was horribly miscast
I never played Uncharted, so just now i realize Drake just snap their necks in stealth. In a shootout you can give him the excuse that it's him or them, but he has the option to just knock the guy out and still he kills. Not even Joel is like that, Nathan Drake is a fucking maniac
I remember having a lot of fun with Golden Abyss. To this day I still have a PS Vita and the game so I may replay it someday
I played this game on my PS Vita, it was my fav game on that thing. It felt like Uncharted 2 with Uncharted 1 DNA. I wish they remaster it some day for console
this was the first game i got for my vita and set my expectations for what quality of games the system would be getting in the future. sadly only a few titles where actually at this level so i ended up selling my vita. I do regret it because at the time I wasn't into jrpgs, but now i am and I realized that I missed out on a lot of titles i'll probably like. But it is true that i won't really be dropping the money to get a vita now and sony closing the stores and giving up on handhelds just means I'll probably forever miss out on some titles until emulation is good enough in the future and i pirate the games
Still have my Day One 3G Vita (and a PSTV). Good memories.
I still use my vita, not consistently, but I love it. This game in particular is soooo good
I’m sorry but I laughed so hard when you showed your audio about you being pissed that you had to start the fight over again 🤣🤣🤣 I feel like that’s me in every uncharted game when I would keep dying lol
I never knew Nathan drake with a backpack was something I needed in my life
For a port, I think all you would have to do would be replace that puzzle that requires you to hold your camera up to the light with a cut scene. Obviously, that’s not the only thing, you know updated graphics etc. but I think most of even the touchscreen stuff could be done using the touchpad on the dual shock four and dual sense.
Can’t wait to see the Black Flag video, especially as it seems you’ll be taking a unique approach to it!
I hope it doesn’t disappoint!
You can tell it’s a handheld cause the enemies have all of the same death animations.
I've played this start to finsish twice using my modded PSTV on my big screen TV. It is superb!
Im replaying golden abyss currently after watching the movie for the second time. I always like the story and enjoyed how grounded it is. I like the Vita gimmicks especially the charcoal rubbings. Im currently on chapter 18
I have fond memories of buying and playing this like 10 years ago, the Vita was great
Despite what I see a lot on the internet I had a negative experience with my vita. Games were rare for me to come by and I was too young to understand jailbreaking. However I am considering buying one and jailbreaking it to play some of the titles I missed out on as a kid.
So because you couldn't hack it to get free games you had a negative experience?
@@oz7586 I got mine around 2014. Don’t know how the emulation scene was back then but my only option to get games was to buy them. As I said in the first comment they were hard to find for me back then. That’s why I had a negative experience. I didn’t know about the emulation until probably 2018 after I sold it
it's stupidly easy to jailbreak the Vita these days. honestly the only things you'd be shelling out for would be for 1) the console itself, 2) a good SD card and 3) the SD2Vita adapter (optional: the charging dock, a must for the fat model imo). after you mod it you'll have access to everything for free. if you have the spare cash, I'd say go for it.
@@sunsetman22 Yeah I’ve been watching a couple on eBay for a while, might get one soon. Recently modded a Wii and have been having a great time playing GameCube and Wii games. Once I get that itch to play a handheld, ill cave in and buy one. Cant you jailbreak one through the internet nowadays?
I bought a vita just to play this game because it was the only uncharted game I didn't play. You can mod the vita to use a PS4 controller or any other controller. You can also use vita to transfer the video to the laptop screen and then to a TV too(bigger screen). I did both and after that, it felt like a regular console Uncharted game.
Funny to see this video in my recommendations as I just started replaying it the other week. I highly suggest getting raised stick grips, greatly improves precision aim.

as some one who played this pretty close to release and who spoke to other people about it (granted it was on forums and game lobbies) the reseption for this game was surp[risingly good with a fair amount of hype for a hoped ps4 port overall i think you did a good job explainig the appeal and falt of the game
but i will say the automatic climbing was much less of a con considering that most of the people i spoke about it back then either didn't notice or didn't bring it up
i personally didn't notice it till my second play through
there was a lot of whining that chase and dante should have been Chloe and Harry from Uncharted 2 mostly cause there was this rumor going around that the game was going to be about how Nate and Chloe meet for the first time
also a lot of the gimmicks such as the swiping and the light usage were excused as launch title syndrome and not particularly intrusive (which personnaly looking back at the game they for the most part weren't) and were justified with the next Uncharted vita will "ignore and/or fix them"
there was a loud group of "hardcore" playuers (couldn't tell you if it was a mojority or a minority since i mostly keep to my corner of the fandom) that hated the game since it "dumbed" down the gunplay with making the shooting easier and making granades irrelevant
personally i loved the game at the time and have fond memories but honestly at the end of the day aside from chase while i'd be sad i don't think i'd mind to much if Goldenm Abyss was stuck on the vita for the rest of time
The irony of being insulted for playing a handheld game console in public by people who will shamelessly play 200 hours of Candy Crush on a weekly basis will never not be funny to me.
Every complaint mentioned here has a simple fix for playing this game on the Vita Tv or elsewhere. Furthermore if you stop doing anything because of what people think or verbally express then you have a larger issue at hand you should address first. Life is short. Play what you want but get the facts rights, it's your responsibility as a RUclipsr.
I got a vita just for this game, did sooo much work for it that perhaps I might be over justifying it to myself, but when you ask who this console was for, I think this console and game were made for me.
See this handheld may not have worked for me if it came out now, I barely use my switch for anything other than a distraction when my phone is charging. But back when I got this, it was the most needed thing I have ever had at that point. See I was an only child with parents who weren't together. So on one hand I had the fun dad who had a ps3 with all the Uncharted games, and back at my moms house, I didn't have anything. My mom was the primary custody holder, so I went long periods of time without seeing my dad or the lesser extent my ps3. I therefore could only use my vita to supplement any enjoyment from my playstation that I was usually missing out on. Games like UC Golden Abyss, Gravity Rush, Little Big Planet, Playstation Allstars, etc. was all that I had until I could get back to the real fun on my Ps3.
So in short, while everyone shits on the vita regularly, I used it as an oasis of gaming when I was in a desert of boredom.
Damn I saw somewhere footage from this game but never knew what uncharted game was since nobody seems to talk about it. Also great video, you got a new subscriber
Fun fact the light puzzle actually can be emulated, there is a plugin for the Vita Tv for both this and Liberation that provides a bright white image that finishes the puzzles. The biggest issue is the emulator Vita 3k is nowhere near any real playability
Vita3k could easily emulate the camera with just like your webcam
Persona 4 golden also hurt it's back with the vita
I had a Vita and never even knew this game existed
Today I learned some people consider a 20 min car ride to be long.
I never understood why this game was not ported to PS4 like how Ghost of Sparta and Chains of Olympus or Gravity Rush. Pretty much all the Vita gimmicks can be worked around to either remove or fit on the dual sense
yo this game is soooo nostalgic. I absolutely loved it
So this is technically playable on PSTV, but it's one of the few whitelisted games, meaning you have to have homebrew to get it to run properly as well as get something to remove the HDCP protection. The nice thing with this game is the PS4 controller shows that this game could do well with a PS4 or PS5 port, utilizing the touchpad for any of the parts requiring the touchpad. I would love to see a remake for the game, but at this rate it doesn't seem like it would come to fruition, especially when Bend was worried about being absolved into Naughty Dog when there was talks of another spin-off featuring Sully. In terms of the collectibles, part of the thing that was missed was just how many there were/ Yes, they helped give new cards and stat boosts to those cards for Fight for Fortune, but there were also a massive number of collectibles to find. How many? Around 200... The only gripe with some of the collectibles is some occur right at the end of a chapter and if you accidentally walk into the trigger for the end of the chapter, there's nothing you can do in that moment to rectify it other than go back through chapter select and replay the whole entire chapter. I definitely recommend fans of Uncharted to give the game a play if they're able to get their hands on it or watch a no-commentary playthrough. It may not be the best Uncharted game, but it's still a damn good one.
There's also the Uncharted: Fight for Fortune game on Vita which is even harder to get since there is no physical copy and it's been delisted and for those who own it, they can't play online because online servers were taken down without any semblance or warning from the developers (Bend Studios). I still own the demo miraculously but Bend did everyone real dirty.
Will you be doing a Lost Legacy video at some point? I also want to say I got made respect for you covering Uncharted and inFAMOUS, they were the first two games I ever played and I feel like they’re heavily underrepresented in the mainstream
I loved this game. I played on my down time when I worked at a library - there was a lot of downtime at the library. One my first platinum trophies too
Great game and great Uncharted game, sadly underrated because its only on Vita.
Playing this at launch, I had all the same crits. The Vita analog sticks and all the QTE, tilt, and light things killed it for me.
This was my first uncharted. Did like it then ! Afterwards started the PS3 trilogy. Like 2 and 3 so much
