Uncharted a franchise; sequel all but confirmed
The first title in the Uncharted series and a sequel is already being discussed in an interview with Opposable Thumbs. Christophe Balestra, co-president of Naughty Dog, has no qualms in saying that Naughty Dog is a franchise studio - all their previous big games have been parts of a series. Uncharted is no exception and Balestra says that it would be "a waste" to leave the game without a sequel - and we agree!
Uncharted fills 91% of a Blu-Ray disc and uses streaming from the disc to the hard drive in order to minimize load times. Naughty Dog seem infatuated with the technology of the PS3 and see it as some sort of challenge to get even more out of it in the future. We look forward to seeing what they come up with as well as finally get our hands on the first title next month.

you see 360 fanboys? a good game really does need blu ray, once again, another overused 360 fanboy remark has been shut down, and there's your proof. they dont really accept it when i say that MGS4 has already gone past 30 gigs...

There's a new trailer on the playstation blog and it also says it's going to be out a day earl!

Me thinks that we're really going to start needing those dual-layer BD soon, very soon!!! Oh, and the trailer on the PS blog is so nice. The music and editing are top-notch. Definitely must-see...

i thought we already knew it was a franchise.
its still cool though that it uses so much space on the disc.

Did you guys let Sony PR write the second paragraph?

is that a 25GB disc or a 50?
@1 Please don't feed the trolls. You just give them a reason to post more FUD.

I've sworn off trailers for this game. I want to go in and be wowed with some virgin eyes.

This article needs updating QUICK.
It's NOT 90% of a Blu-ray disc, it's 90% of a single later blu-ray disc.

Not that I don't think this game will be great (everything I've seen really blows me away) but isn't a little premature to be talking sequels yet? With all the changes and delays we're seeing to games these days I'd rather see dev's start under-promising and over-delivering as opposed to the other way around. Which we're seeing all too often these days.

@ mak:
1. im pretty sure thats what they meant... it still shows they need blu ray (because 90% of 25 is more than 8)
2. you dont even have a source, that's shameful.

#1 shows why there's so many 360 fanboys on here. Don't post crap like that taunting them, then sit there and say "LOL WHY DO 360 FANBOYS KEEP COMING ON HERE?! LOL ROFLMAO!"

The song is called Dissolved Girl, by Massive Attack. My name is taken from the album it's on.
