Over at the fabulous video game criticism archive Critical Distance, they’ve run their first “Critical Compilation” in a while, this one written by Johnny Kilhefner and dedicated to all of the best critical writing about Naughty Dog’s Uncharted 2: Among Thieves.
Uncharted 3 is out today! In honour of the occasion, I thought now would be a good time to have a little Uncharted party here on Fine Art, and showcase concept and 3D art from all three games in the series.
Starting October 3 on late night television, TV Tokyo is broadcasting a new program to promote Uncharted 3. It will ruin the game’s prequel. Literally.
The Uncharted movie sounds pretty stupid! It’s about a globe-trotting family of antiques collectors that dispense treasure-hunting justice. That doesn’t sound like Uncharted at all. What does Uncharted game designer Amy Henning think of the movie’s concept?
Despite the amazing name, Hanno Hagedorn is not a Norse God. He is a mortal, an artist who worked on Uncharted 2, crafting 3D images so damn pretty you have to be told they’re not actual works of sculpture.
Artist Emily Carroll’s video game-inspired works don’t fill the page with explosions, or large necks, or slutty women. They just show people smiling. Warm, happy smiles.
The Uncharted movie sure sounds rotten. David O. Russell directing Mark Wahlberg and a family of archaeologists? Stupid! Good thing the game’s developer is saying the Hollywood actor’s claims just aren’t true. Well, sorta.
