Uncharted: Golden Abyss

Nathan Drake Kicks Armpits In New Uncharted: Golden Abyss Screenshots

A photograph can tell an entire story. This is not the case with the image pictured above. Is the enemy, who is clearly a foot smaller than Nathan Drake, going in for a bear hug or a double-fisted crotch blast? Is Nathan performing a roundhouse kick or did the enemy sidestep a stiff boot to the chest? Did this enemy clearly think that his yellow scarf would go with that shirt? So many questions...

Uncharted: Golden Abyss is shaping up to be PlayStation Vita's most anticipated launch game, and the graphical detail found in the six new screenshots below is a large reason why. To see the game in action, check out the 11-minute Tokyo Game Show playthrough and the Gamescom trailer. Also, be sure to read Joe Juba's hands-on report.

  • Things like this make me want the vita more and more every day.
  • I havent been following the vita at all because I never developed any interest in sony stuff. But when i just happened to look at this article thinking it was Drakes deception, I must say... I AM INTERESTED!
    Since I havent followed the vita, I didnt know there was a Drake game for it and I thought that Golden Abyss was a level or something. Guess not!!
  • Those screen shots put alot of console games to shame.  

  • Mod

    I must play this game...it look's so amazing. :)

  • this game might be enough to sell me on the vita by itself.

  • Nathan Drake: Kicking armpits since 2007

  • The Vita has so much potential. I just hope Sony utilizes it more than they did with the PSP
  • It's like Uncharted 1.5 in the palm of your hands.

  • Wow...look at those graphics. That's incredible for a handheld. Nintendo can't be happy.

  • God this looks impressive for a handheld im not a big handheld guy and i doubt the vita will change my mind but maybe just maybe if the games keep getting good i might pick it up in a year or two

  • Bruce Lee wahataaaaa

  • Nathan Drake, attacking terrorists' biggest weak spot: Personal Hygiene!

  • this is a really good sign for the vita. Although i wont like the graphics because this generation was just shy of doing what they said with the detail and solidness. With the vita trying the same thing but on a handheld with its slightly lower power i dont think ill like it. That dungeon crawler (ruin?) is what my point is. It personally hurts my eyes. And this is coming from somebody who plays his wii more than his gaming rig and soon to be the owner ps3
  • So far the Vita is on track to usurp Nintendo from the handheld crown, I'll probably pick one up myself.

  • this game is soooo cool!! can't wait!

  • Between Escape Plan & this I really have the urge to get myself a handheld again.
  • woww... i really really cannot wait to get the vita in my hands and become a proud owner the day it comes out. i need a release date

  • Seeing screenshots like these, make me think what a good FPS or RPG would look like on the Vita. These graphics are sick for a handheld! Bravo SONY...Bravo.
  • The psvita is going to be awesome!
