My favorite Naughty Dog game is Uncharted 4. They took what they did with the first 3 in terms of mechanics and arguably had the best story out of the entire franchise.
U4 was a great game, but for me it was pretty much something I had played already, with less impact of previous entries bc IMO very little topped U2, and it was a little longer than I felt was necessary. That being said, still incredible game.
Agreed 4 is the best. It closed out Nathan's storyline perfectly and the game play is top tier just a half step behind TLOU2 ( no prone etc but the story is light years better). Semi-open world allows you more variety in combat than the previous three Uncharted games. Pretty much love everything naughty dog puts out but uncharted 4 is just top shelf. I can't believe we don't have anything new from Naughty Dog. As I write this it's been 4 years and there's nothing on the horizon...😢
Might be contentious to say but LOU2 is my favorite Naughty dog game, Ik the story doesnt gel with everyone but the Gameplay mechanics and the feel and fluidity of combat is absolutely Unmatched by any other 3rd person shooter/action game..plus i love the world/lore and Setting of the Last of us Game series. The new No return mode really adds to the replayability factor and puts the spotlight even more on the masterful combat so its My fav, In terms of actual Story tho prob LOU1 or Uncharted 4.
This. My exact opinion. I couldn’t have said it better myself. People hate on TLOU 2 but the gameplay is truly an experience. Very visceral. I’m also a bigger Ellie fan than Joel so a game from her perspective was always going to be my fav.
My problem with it really is just the story. I just didn't like the story, and since its a story based game, that really kills it for me. I do think the game has some good stuff in it, its just not for me.
TLOU Part 2 is probably my favorite game of all time, but it's a close race when up against my nostalgia for Jak 1 and it's collectathon perfection. My top 5 from ND would probably be CTR, The Last of Us, Uncharted 4, Jak 1 and TLOU Part 2 in that, ascending order. CTR is also probably the best kart racer ever made. The interplay between the item box mechanics, the hidden reserves system and the mini turbos paired with the insane shortcut potential just makes it so perfect to me. Great video and thank you for the extended thoughts on each title from such a mesmerizing developer studio!
Yeah TLOU II really is great. People hate the story which I understand. But personally, that is the exact kinda story I like. And the message it conveys ... Holy guacamole. But yeah that and the damn awesome gameplay and the awesome graphics
@@fotografick Summing everything to "revenge is bad" is a pretty bad way to put it. I believe that is much more on forgiveness and understanding. Ellie didn't go out to kill Abby because she wants to avenge Joel, but because she wants to avenge Abby from stealing the opportunity to forgive Joel, which she was trying to do. It is like Thorfinn going out to kill Canute because he killed Askeladd, stealing his opportunity to avenge his father.
Super happy to see you rank Jak and Daxter so highly. I grew up with it and was blown away. Playing it again now, it has aged perfectly and it just blows my mind how good of a 3D platform it is.
I haven't played every Naughty Dog game but my favorite to least favorite. 1. The Last of Us 2. Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy 3. Uncharted 4: A Thief's End 4. The Last of Us Part II 5. Uncharted 2: Among Thieves 6. Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception 7. Uncharted: The Lost Legacy 8. Uncharted: Drake's Fortune 9. Crash Bandicoot: Warped 10. Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back 11. Crash Bandicoot 12. Crash Team Racing
Crash Bandicoot will always be number one because this is the game is always childhood to me the Crash Bandicoot games hold a special place in people's hearts.
Awesome seeing you in the intro. This needs to stay! Just got back from a two week vacation and catching up on all the videos I missed. Really happy to see you taking it up a notch 😮.
Jak and Daxter the Precursor Legacy was my first naughty dog game and to this day is still my favorite naughty dog game. I’ve beaten and 100% that game more times than I can count over the last 20 or so years
CTR is my favourite game of all time so that gets my number 1. I can't rank Crash Bandicoot any lower than 2nd. It was the first game I ever played on my own console and made me fall in love with gaming. The save mechanic didn't age well at all but apart from that it's as amazing to me in 2024 as it was in 1999 when I first played it.
Great list, to me there is a clear top 4 but to each their own. 1. Jak 2 2. The Last of us 3. Jak & Daxter: The Precursor Legacy 4. Uncharted 2 --- Pretty Decent Gap --- 5. Uncharted 4 6. Uncharted 3 7. Crash 3 8. Jak 3 9. Uncharted 1 10. Crash Team Racing 11. Crash 2 12. Jak X 13. Crash 1 14. TLOU 2 (Never played Lost Legacy)
Fun fact: you can play them all on PS4 and PS5. The Crash Trilogy + CTR NF are available as remakes on every platform, except CTR which isn't on PC. The Jak & Daxter games are available as PS2 Classics on PS4, including Jak X, I believe they work fine on PS5 through backwards compatibility. The Nathan Drake Collection was remastered for PS4 and the Legacy Of Thieves Collection exists on PS4 (seperately) and on PS5. The Last Of Us 1 was remastered twice and 2 is about to get its remaster even though it's backwards compatible. They also had more 6 games before they worked with Universal and Sony. Most popular was Way of the Warrior.
Good video and ranking! Here's my list: 1. Uncharted 4: A Thief's End 2. The Last of Us: Part II 3. Crash Bandicoot 4. Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception 5. The Last of Us 6. Jak and Daxter 7. Uncharted 2: Among Thieves 8. Crash Team Racing 9. Jak and Daxter 2 10. Uncharted: Lost Legacy 11. Crash Bandicoot 3 12. Crash Bandicoot 2 13. Uncharted: Drake's Fortune 14. Jak and Daxter 3 15. Jak X 16-19. The Rest
CTR WAS SO EPIC!!! Watching my big brother beat the campaign was so cool and then getting to take up the game and teach my little sister it was so much fun! So many cool short cuts and the map designs were so sick compared to what the other racers were providing
Goodie brother, i was waiting for this video to come some day. I have played all the post ps3 naughty dog games, basically uncharted and the last of us. And as much as i loved the last of us 1, not so much the second one, just to let you know uncharted 4 is my favourite, it is one of the few non RPG or FPS games that i would concider one of the grestest experiences in video games for me. The longer campaign, the incredible for the time graphics and a more open aproach to exploration really adds up to a more enjoyable time compared to the older games in my opinion.
I legitimately put part two over part 1, its much more ambitious and nuanced than the first in every way. I love the risks ND takes in part 2 even if it doesnt always pay off. The ONLY thing I'd say part 1 does better is pacing.
I’ll be here all day Ranking their games but these are my Top 5: 5. Jak II: Renegade 4. Uncharted 2: Among Thieves 3. The Last of Us: Part II 2. The Last of Us 1. Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End
Agreed! It’s kinda of the black sheep of the series.. a lot of scenery you wouldn’t expect in an uncharted game like city streets, desert, the boatyard stuff. heck even like drake wearing a suit you wouldn’t expect. But the shooting was much better and story was insane.
I really appreciate that you gave TLoU2 a fair opinion. The discourse behind the game has reached such an absurd level. I'm convinced most of the vitriol and hate that it gets is from people who haven't even played it. Whether it be they saw the leaks before it came out or just jumping on the band wagon because it's cool and they want to sound smart. They eat up the 30-minute contrarion thinkpieces and regurgitate it becoming armchair experts on game narrative. It's meant to be polarizing, but people take it to such heights that they act like they're being personally attacked from the game, lol. It just feels incredibly disingenuous for people to label it as a "bad" game.
@jameskozy7254 Then you're insane! No, that's fair if it didn't click much for you in that way. Like I didn't care for The Witcher 3 or Baulders Gate 3, but I still recognize they're generally acclaimed, and I respect them for what they are. There's just too many people being overly hyperbolic with their hate for TLoU2.
My top 5 would be TLOU2, TLOU1, Uncharted 4, Crash 2 and Uncharted 2. As you said when mentionning TLOU2 youre gonna get comments ;P My only gripe with your whole section about TLOU2 is that I think you underrate the improvements and modifications to TLOU2 combat ( especially adding dodges for melee and being able to run-prone, turn on your back to shoot and reload etc. Also other additions such as being able to manipulate infected to attack human npcs really opened up possibilities even tho it doesnt happen often in the game)
It feels like naughty dog grow up as it got older by the age ratings where crash has age 7+ then jack being 12+ then uncharted being 15+ the last of us being 17+ which made me grow up with the studio love it thanks naughty dog for all the memories you made me
Crash Bandicoot and Jak and Daxter were staples in my childhood. Warped is still my favourite Crash game, and Jak 2 is still my favourite in the trilogy. Uncharted was also great, with each game getting better than the last, with the possible exception of A Thief's End, but that's just my own humble opinion
I've made a 100% on crash 1 but not original but at the insane trilogy. It makes much fun collectiong the special crystals and than go back again and unlock secret areas.
TLOU is the only horror game franchise that I have played. That tells you something about it. It's unlike anything I've ever played. I was so attached to the characters, I even cared about Abby at the end of it. It's something special for sure
I'll never understand the hate on Last of Us 2. Game was fucking perfection. YES, the pacing at the end was confusing. I thought it was ending like 3 times. But after that, replays are amazing.
That’s not good, last of us part 2 is in my top 5 games of all time but I can easily see all the reasons for the hate and I even agree with a lot of it, you shouldn’t be blind to criticism just because you like it
The Last of Us 1 is a masterpiece. 2 greatly improved the gameplay, but the story and pacing is so trash that the game leaves such a bad taste in my mouth where I could only play it twice. Not to mention all the propaganda in it. TLOU1= 10/10 TLOU2 = 5/10 but hey to each their own.
If jak 2 is to hard for you. the is a actual cheat debug mode code where you can get invincible,watch all cutscenes and select missions. it works with every version. But i just found out when i was finished and had to buy a new controller😂
Golf club! Great video and a fun way to relax on a quiet Monday. As always I respect your takes and think maybe I should give the J&D series another shot some time. For me TLOU 1 and 2 are definitely preferred over the whole Uncharted games which are solid as hell but for me pretty frivolous.
Golf club! I tried thinking about how I would rank all naughty dog games and I understand how hard it can be, even the weakest game is still an amazing one, just goes to show the sheer amount of quality Naughty Dog delivers.
1. Last of Us 2. Last of Us Part 2 3. Uncharted 4 4. Uncharted 2 5. Crash Brandicoot 3 6. Jak & Daxter 7. Uncharted 3 8. Jak 2 9. Crash Bandicoot 2 10. Uncharted Lost Legacy
Golf club Also spectacular video. Fantastic detailed insight into every ranking and why you chose to rank in that way. I probably would have ranked last of us uncharted 4 crash 3 last of us 2 uncharted 5. But thats my own top 5
I kinda cut myself off from social media when I went through The Last of Us Part 2 and when I came up for air at the end I was pretty shocked that there were so many people who were that negative to what I perceived as one of the best video game stories I’d ever played through. Pretty interested in how the television crowd takes in the events of this game in the next season. I have a feeling they’ll be more receptive.
The Last of Us Part II is my favorite. Yes I love the story and gameplay and even prefer it to the first game. Absolute masterpiece and one of the best games I have ever played.
@cwavy_6193Ahh and here it comes. You seriously can't express that you love Tlou2 without someone telling you it's garbage. Getting a little old be more original dude.
@cwavy_6193I'm not the one telling people are wrong for having an opinion so nah you're an L my dude lmao. I don't care that you hate the game, I love it. It's probably my second favorite game after Rdr2.
@cwavy_6193 In what ways is an opinion wrong? I don't see anything wrong with anybody having an opinion, that's what they think, so why is it a bother to you?
Congrats on the video and keep up the good work. One small piece of advice - you spend way too much time commenting about what most people believe and you will get a lot of flack about your decision. It is obviously your video and there is no way that everybody will agree with you. There is a charm whether we see a list that we agree or not.
Great video. Golf club🏌️♀️ It's interesting to hear other people's opinions. Personally, I think TLOU2 is amazing, first time I played it, I didn't like it much. I gave it another chance and then I loved it. Yes, it has some pacing issues but the gameplay, visuals and voice acting are incredible. TLOU 1 will always have that special place in my heart though. My top 5..... 5- Uncharted 2 4- The Last of Us Part 2 3- Crash Bandicoot 3 2- Uncharted 4 1-The Last of Us Part 1
This is a tough list to make. I think Uncharted 4 is their best game. Crash 3 would be second place, and Uncharted 2 would be third. Everything else would be super hard to rank.
Uff that worst to best is actually best of the best, the “worst” is just because the other games are even greater, but not because that last game is bad, and that’s something so cool with a video game company
When I was about 15, I managed to beat Crash 1 at 100%, I dont even know how I did it, honestly... (And I still have that save file in one of my memory cards)
Is it necessary to play uncharted 1-3 to enjoy uncharted 4 and to understand what is going on? Is it all the same story or is each game a differ story?
You could definitely still play it and enjoy it. Its a self contained story but some of the character and story beats won't hit the same as they would if you played the previous games
You can, but you'll be missing some character development which really adds to the story. It's a great story on It's own though. You could always watch a recap video for the first 3 if you don't want to play the first 3.
I've only played PS3 onwards: So for me: 1. Last of Us Part 1, 2. Uncharted 2, 3. Uncharted 4, 4. Uncharted 3, 5. Uncharted LL, 6. Uncharted 1, 7. TLOU2
I think having last of us part 2 above uncharted 4 is a hot take but I actually like LOU2 despite the flaws. Big W for having Jak 1 so high though, I really thought I was the only one who thinks it’s the best Jak game. The overall vibe and atmosphere along with the level design (plus childhood nostalgia) really does hit different
Never played any Jak or LOU games, but I do agree that Crash 3 and CTR are the best Crash games. I also agree with Uncharted 2 and 4 are the best Uncharted games. I would put those games mentioned above in the top 4.
My favorite game from them was Uncharted 4, probably followed by Crash Bandicoot 3. The rest were just good enough games. I wish I liked the Jak and Daxter series more, but as I played them on the Vita, they were mostly just frustrating due to porting issues. Oh, but Daxter on PSP was awesome on itself.
Perfect list. Uncharted 2 is a near perfect rollercoaster as far as action adventure games go (except that the first half is a little better). Have you played the Jak games? Interested in how you'd rank them compared to Uncharted 1 and Lost Legacy.
I havent played the Jak games actually 😄 just tried it ones and i guess i didnt like it since ive never gone back there cause im not a huge fan of plattforming games. Im more of a third person cinematic shooter fan. Between Uncharted 1 and lost legacy i would maybe have Uncharted 1 just above Lost Legacy for nostalgia reasons. But they are all great in my opinion but nothing beats TLOU part 1 and 2 tho.
@cwavy_6193Whoah someone has a different opinion than you?? That's crazy. It's crazy how not everyone thinks the same way as you. How do you function in a world with so many different opinions.
Unfortunately, many users have decided to shit on U3, taking every flaw to the extreme. I believe that it is the best game in the series and that everything good it offers makes you forget the bad.
@@gianvitochimenti9510 yeah I don't know why it's overhated like that. I mean OK the story& antagonists is not as good as 2&4 but the Backstory, set pieces, multiplayer, coop, h2h combat, Soundtracks, split screen, throw back grenades, Nate's desert outfit (best one) and prime Sully. I think that's enough to love the game 🐐
@@ahmedabdulwahed45 hmmm, I like it more for it's simplicity of just having guns on the map you pick up. In U3 you had loadouts and weapon mods etc if i remember, and also a sprint mechanic. Something about U2 multiplayer was just perfect. Not sure if the servers are still up for either game though
@@ChicagoBulls1984 Sadly naughty dog shut down both of u2&3 servers since September 2019. Uncharted 3 multiplayer is one of the most memorable experiences I've ever had in a video game in general. But doesn't mean that Uncharted 2 multiplayer was bad no it was a masterpiece in every way but they worked on Uncharted 3 a lit bit more especially the updates that kept the online enjoyable for many years but yes Uncharted 2 was simple and goated.
Me too, The last of us has way less to offer imo, besides the story, the story is good (except for 2) But in terms of gameplay uncharted was always better.
@@filioperibeiro6285 despise of what you think about the story, tlou2 gameplay is way better in terms of mechanics, animation and fluidity. I prefer uncharted gameplay too because is more chaotic and cinematic, but tlou2 is technically better in every aspect
@@jongcena2555 I actually don't think so, I found uncharted more fluid and the gameplay way better. There's more variation to it aswell. Specially in 4 with the rope and parkour. I feel like you can do more in uncharted than in The last of us. The jump in tlou 2 is also pretty useless.
I dream of the day Naughty Dog announces Jak trilogy Remade for PS5/6. It super HD graphics. Especially the first 2 games. Instead we'll be stuck with TLOU for awhile.
Hard disagree on Jak X being near bottom. It might genuinely be one of my fave combat racers ever made. Possibly one of the best racing games in general. But I understand your view/thoughts on it
An incredible catalog of games, Naughty Dog is hands down the greatest western developer, slightly edging out Insomniac & Rockstar. This is how i rank their games. 15. Jak x 14. Uncharted 1 13. Crash 1 12. Crash team racing 11. Uncharted lost legacy 10. Jak 2 9. Jak 3 8. Uncharted 3 7. Crash 2 6. Uncharted 4 5. Crash 3 4. Jak 1 3. The last of us part 2 2. Uncharted 2 1. The last of us part 1
My favorite Naughty Dog game is Uncharted 4. They took what they did with the first 3 in terms of mechanics and arguably had the best story out of the entire franchise.
Imo 4 watered down the gameplay. I still think 3 and 2 are better.

It truly is ridiculous. When people tell me they didn’t like the story, I wonder if the themes of the first game sailed right over their heads.

@@PHILLIPAYx Tell me why the gameplay in the last of us is so good?
Happy to join this golf club, I really enjoyed your thoughts on each title!
My top 5 would be TLOU2, TLOU1, Uncharted 4, Crash 2 and Uncharted 2.
As you said when mentionning TLOU2 youre gonna get comments ;P My only gripe with your whole section about TLOU2 is that I think you underrate the improvements and modifications to TLOU2 combat ( especially adding dodges for melee and being able to run-prone, turn on your back to shoot and reload etc. Also other additions such as being able to manipulate infected to attack human npcs really opened up possibilities even tho it doesnt happen often in the game)
TLOU Remastered is in my Top 5 VideoGames of All Time and I Have 100% it with all the Trophies 🏆
I didn’t play a ton of Naughty Dog games but Crash 3 Warped is my personal favorite
Golf club
Another excellent video! Always excited when i see you've put out another ranking vid!
It feels like naughty dog grow up as it got older by the age ratings where crash has age 7+ then jack being 12+ then uncharted being 15+ the last of us being 17+ which made me grow up with the studio love it thanks naughty dog for all the memories you made me
Uncharted 2 at 7th? Good grief. At least you made up for it with the correct #1 choice, but UC2 is a masterpiece
I definitely don't agree with some of the rankings, but I cannot say less than respect for explaining your opinions so well.
Golfclub.
Crash Bandicoot and Jak and Daxter were staples in my childhood. Warped is still my favourite Crash game, and Jak 2 is still my favourite in the trilogy. Uncharted was also great, with each game getting better than the last, with the possible exception of A Thief's End, but that's just my own humble opinion
I've made a 100% on crash 1 but not original but at the insane trilogy. It makes much fun collectiong the special crystals and than go back again and unlock secret areas.
Jak X is criminally low. That game was awesome
TLOU is the only horror game franchise that I have played. That tells you something about it. It's unlike anything I've ever played. I was so attached to the characters, I even cared about Abby at the end of it. It's something special for sure
I'll never understand the hate on Last of Us 2. Game was fucking perfection. YES, the pacing at the end was confusing. I thought it was ending like 3 times. But after that, replays are amazing.
That’s not good, last of us part 2 is in my top 5 games of all time but I can easily see all the reasons for the hate and I even agree with a lot of it, you shouldn’t be blind to criticism just because you like it
The Last of Us 1 is a masterpiece.
2 greatly improved the gameplay, but the story and pacing is so trash that the game leaves such a bad taste in my mouth where I could only play it twice. Not to mention all the propaganda in it.
TLOU1= 10/10
TLOU2 = 5/10
but hey to each their own.
@@billwoods7578 okay lol
@Antagonist115 what a contradiction
@@DemonKingNemo okay lol
If jak 2 is to hard for you. the is a actual cheat debug mode code where you can get invincible,watch all cutscenes and select missions. it works with every version. But i just found out when i was finished and had to buy a new controller😂
Golf club! Great video and a fun way to relax on a quiet Monday. As always I respect your takes and think maybe I should give the J&D series another shot some time. For me TLOU 1 and 2 are definitely preferred over the whole Uncharted games which are solid as hell but for me pretty frivolous.
XD
Golf club! I tried thinking about how I would rank all naughty dog games and I understand how hard it can be, even the weakest game is still an amazing one, just goes to show the sheer amount of quality Naughty Dog delivers.
Amazing video, great job.
I felt the same way about The last of us part 1
1. Last of Us

Also spectacular video. Fantastic detailed insight into every ranking and why you chose to rank in that way. I probably would have ranked last of us uncharted 4 crash 3 last of us 2 uncharted 5. But thats my own top 5
1. Uncharted 4
2. The last of us
3. The last of us part 2
4. Uncharted 3
5. Uncharted 2
Uncharted 2 was my first naughty dog game and will always be my favorite due to that first experience I had
I kinda cut myself off from social media when I went through The Last of Us Part 2 and when I came up for air at the end I was pretty shocked that there were so many people who were that negative to what I perceived as one of the best video game stories I’d ever played through. Pretty interested in how the television crowd takes in the events of this game in the next season. I have a feeling they’ll be more receptive.
I think the ending of TLOU2 is brilliant and I loved that last area, it almost felt like what usually is a 15 dollar dlc.
The Last of Us Part II is my favorite. Yes I love the story and gameplay and even prefer it to the first game. Absolute masterpiece and one of the best games I have ever played.
@cwavy_6193Ahh and here it comes. You seriously can't express that you love Tlou2 without someone telling you it's garbage. Getting a little old be more original dude.
@cwavy_6193I'm not the one telling people are wrong for having an opinion so nah you're an L my dude lmao. I don't care that you hate the game, I love it. It's probably my second favorite game after Rdr2.
@cwavy_6193Whatever you say my dude lmao. I still think Tlou2 is a masterpiece, if that makes me an L so be it.
@cwavy_6193 In what ways is an opinion wrong? I don't see anything wrong with anybody having an opinion, that's what they think, so why is it a bother to you?
it won game of the year, 200+ awards, with the actors getting awards, so clearly someone is wrong here and its not people who enjoy it. @cwavy_6193
Nah,the last of us 2 is way better than the first and the best game of Naughty dogs for me.
Congrats on the video and keep up the good work.
One small piece of advice - you spend way too much time commenting about what most people believe and you will get a lot of flack about your decision. It is obviously your video and there is no way that everybody will agree with you. There is a charm whether we see a list that we agree or not.
TLOU2 is better than the first game, story is just as good, characters are just as compelling and the gameplay is much improved.
You either Die a Hero or
Live long Enough to see
Yourself become the
Villain 🙈
Great video. Golf club🏌️♀️ It's interesting to hear other people's opinions. Personally, I think TLOU2 is amazing, first time I played it, I didn't like it much. I gave it another chance and then I loved it. Yes, it has some pacing issues but the gameplay, visuals and voice acting are incredible. TLOU 1 will always have that special place in my heart though.
My top 5.....
5- Uncharted 2
4- The Last of Us Part 2
3- Crash Bandicoot 3
2- Uncharted 4
1-The Last of Us Part 1
You praised Uncharted 3 for its combat but when you got to TLoU2, you said it's as basic as U3, huh???
No disrespect bro but my soul died a bit seeing uncharted 2, 3, and 4 not being higher 😭 good list though bro 👌
The ones I’ve played
1. The Last Of Us: 10/10
2. Uncharted 3 Drakes Deception: 9/10
3. Uncharted 2 Among Thieves: 9/10
4. Uncharted Drakes Fortune: 8/10
5. Crash Bandicoot: 8/10
This is a tough list to make. I think Uncharted 4 is their best game. Crash 3 would be second place, and Uncharted 2 would be third. Everything else would be super hard to rank.
Uff that worst to best is actually best of the best, the “worst” is just because the other games are even greater, but not because that last game is bad, and that’s something so cool with a video game company
Uncharted 4 is my favorite Uncharted game
Interesting takes! I think I need to fire up my ps3 to play Jak and Daxter collection. Only played part of the first...so off to it!
When I was about 15, I managed to beat Crash 1 at 100%, I dont even know how I did it, honestly... (And I still have that save file in one of my memory cards)
Crash Team Racing is my favorite game of all time. so that's easily my number one Naughty Dog game.
Is it necessary to play uncharted 1-3 to enjoy uncharted 4 and to understand what is going on? Is it all the same story or is each game a differ story?
Great PSV
You could definitely still play it and enjoy it. Its a self contained story but some of the character and story beats won't hit the same as they would if you played the previous games
The first uncharted game I played was uncharted 1, the second uncharted game I played was 4 and I really enjoyed it without playing any of the others.
You can, but you'll be missing some character development which really adds to the story. It's a great story on It's own though. You could always watch a recap video for the first 3 if you don't want to play the first 3.
I've only played PS3 onwards: So for me: 1. Last of Us Part 1, 2. Uncharted 2, 3. Uncharted 4, 4. Uncharted 3, 5. Uncharted LL, 6. Uncharted 1, 7. TLOU2
TLOU1
Uncharted 2
Uncharted 4
Crash 3
Uncharted 3
Admittedly, the Jak series is in my backlog and haven't played TLOU2 yet.
I think having last of us part 2 above uncharted 4 is a hot take but I actually like LOU2 despite the flaws.
Big W for having Jak 1 so high though, I really thought I was the only one who thinks it’s the best Jak game. The overall vibe and atmosphere along with the level design (plus childhood nostalgia) really does hit different
25:03 "so HIGH"??? That's hell of a low position if you ask me
Never played any Jak or LOU games, but I do agree that Crash 3 and CTR are the best Crash games. I also agree with Uncharted 2 and 4 are the best Uncharted games. I would put those games mentioned above in the top 4.
I can't believe he put Crash 1 at the bottom
Golf club. ❤️
Also, subbed!
My favorite game from them was Uncharted 4, probably followed by Crash Bandicoot 3. The rest were just good enough games. I wish I liked the Jak and Daxter series more, but as I played them on the Vita, they were mostly just frustrating due to porting issues. Oh, but Daxter on PSP was awesome on itself.
My top 5 got to be.
1. TLOU Part 2
2. TLOU
3. Uncharted 2
4. Uncharted 4
5. Uncharted 3
Perfect list. Uncharted 2 is a near perfect rollercoaster as far as action adventure games go (except that the first half is a little better). Have you played the Jak games? Interested in how you'd rank them compared to Uncharted 1 and Lost Legacy.
I havent played the Jak games actually 😄 just tried it ones and i guess i didnt like it since ive never gone back there cause im not a huge fan of plattforming games. Im more of a third person cinematic shooter fan. Between Uncharted 1 and lost legacy i would maybe have Uncharted 1 just above Lost Legacy for nostalgia reasons. But they are all great in my opinion but nothing beats TLOU part 1 and 2 tho.
Respect the ranking, but I'll give Jak X credit for having Naughty Dog's best multiplayer, and arguably their best music.
I liked uncharted 1

YES. Someone else who agrees Tlou2 is their best game. I absolutely love it.
I threw up in my mouth seeing this list
@cwavy_6193 That's ok. You have your own opinion, I have my own😁
@@96crashbanSomeone has a different opinion than you so you threw up? Wow I feel for you dude.
@cwavy_6193Whoah someone has a different opinion than you?? That's crazy. It's crazy how not everyone thinks the same way as you. How do you function in a world with so many different opinions.
The self awareness about ppl criticizing your rankings is almost.. excessive. Otherwise solid video 👍🏻
Almost like it’s an opinion-based video?
usually I just have my quick disclaimer at the beginning but with Naughty Dog its a little different lol
Uncharted 3 Drake's Deception isn't only the best naughty dog game but it is one of the best video games ever made
Unfortunately, many users have decided to shit on U3, taking every flaw to the extreme. I believe that it is the best game in the series and that everything good it offers makes you forget the bad.
@@gianvitochimenti9510 yeah I don't know why it's overhated like that. I mean OK the story& antagonists is not as good as 2&4 but the Backstory, set pieces, multiplayer, coop, h2h combat, Soundtracks, split screen, throw back grenades, Nate's desert outfit (best one) and prime Sully.
I think that's enough to love the game 🐐
Naughty dog has made some great games but last of us 2 is an easy number one.
Uncharted 2 multiplayer was the only multiplayer I ever really got into. It was amazing
Is it better than uncharted 3?
@@ahmedabdulwahed45 hmmm, I like it more for it's simplicity of just having guns on the map you pick up. In U3 you had loadouts and weapon mods etc if i remember, and also a sprint mechanic. Something about U2 multiplayer was just perfect. Not sure if the servers are still up for either game though
@@ChicagoBulls1984 Sadly naughty dog shut down both of u2&3 servers since September 2019.
Uncharted 3 multiplayer is one of the most memorable experiences I've ever had in a video game in general. But doesn't mean that Uncharted 2 multiplayer was bad no it was a masterpiece in every way but they worked on Uncharted 3 a lit bit more especially the updates that kept the online enjoyable for many years but yes Uncharted 2 was simple and goated.
CTR is the best. You are crazy
All of the games are great. I honestly could see any of the Naughty Dog games in first place.
My favourite is probably Uncharted 2. Crash TTR was a blast on psp as well.
just bought jak 2 again for ps4. i own it on ps2,3 and pc. Best game from them even with many problems
I always liked Uncharted way more than Last of Us
Last of Us 2 was one of my least favorite games
Same here
How do you rank the Uncharted games?
Me too, The last of us has way less to offer imo, besides the story, the story is good (except for 2)
But in terms of gameplay uncharted was always better.
@@filioperibeiro6285 despise of what you think about the story, tlou2 gameplay is way better in terms of mechanics, animation and fluidity.
I prefer uncharted gameplay too because is more chaotic and cinematic, but tlou2 is technically better in every aspect
@@jongcena2555 I actually don't think so, I found uncharted more fluid and the gameplay way better.
There's more variation to it aswell.
Specially in 4 with the rope and parkour. I feel like you can do more in uncharted than in The last of us.
The jump in tlou 2 is also pretty useless.
CTR is my number 1, probably one of my all time favorites.
I dream of the day Naughty Dog announces Jak trilogy Remade for PS5/6. It super HD graphics. Especially the first 2 games. Instead we'll be stuck with TLOU for awhile.
My only issue with Uncharted 2 is Not enough Sully.
Whole Jak and Daxter series shits on everything Naughty Dog made.
Uncharted 4 is my favorite the characters are awesome
Hard disagree on Jak X being near bottom. It might genuinely be one of my fave combat racers ever made. Possibly one of the best racing games in general. But I understand your view/thoughts on it
My Favorit is and will be the last of us part 1
I really like uncharted 2
An incredible catalog of games, Naughty Dog is hands down the greatest western developer, slightly edging out Insomniac & Rockstar. This is how i rank their games.
15. Jak x
14. Uncharted 1
13. Crash 1
12. Crash team racing
11. Uncharted lost legacy
10. Jak 2
