Uncharted als Film

Uncharted gilt als die cineastische Spielereihe aller Zeiten. Grund genug für Andy Gilleand den Traum eines Uncharted Films (ohne Mark Wahlberg!!!) zu verwirklichen und aus den besten und wichtigsten Spielszenen, Spielfilme zusammenzuschneiden. Mit Längen von zwei bis über drei Stunden, kommen hier auch Playstation 3 Nichtbesitzer in den Genuss, die kinoreifen Actiongranaten ohne lästige Störungen durch Let's Play Kommentatoren oder dröge Playthrough-Passagen, erleben zu können.

Auf Reddit erklärt Andy seine Intention:

The Uncharted games are personally my favorite series of games, with Uncharted 2 and 3 being my favorite games of all time. They're certainly the most cinematic games I've ever played. I've often heard many people describe these games as like controlling a movie, and have heard many people say that these games are just as fun to watch as they are to play, and I agree with both of those things. That gave me the idea to edit these games into movies. That way I would be able to watch the story of these games in one sitting easily, and without having to take up a considerable portion of my day. Not only that, but I would be able to show these to people who either don't have a PS3, don't have or want these games but still are interested in seeing the story, or even don't play video games at all.
With these projects I was trying to make movies that would be viewable whether or not you had played the game, or even care about playing video games, so I wanted to make them as close to a real movie as possible. This meant taking out as many chapter titles, button prompts, and more to make it seem less like a video game. There were certain aspects I wasn't able to remove, such as the current weapon selected, or an occasional button prompt. I tried to focus mostly on the cinematics, but also include the minimum amount of gameplay to link them, especially focusing on the more cinematic elements of gameplay. I wanted to make sure not to cut any cutscenes or any gameplay that would leave the viewer confused if they hadn't played the game, so in the end Uncharted 2 and 3 were quite long, but that's just because the stories are much more complicated than Uncharted 1's. Either way it's still a lot shorter than playing the real game, so if you are ever in the mood to watch the story of one of these games in one sitting, but don't have the time to play the entire game through, then these are great for that purpose, or if you want to show these games' stories to friends or family that don't care about playing video games.

Wir denken, fantastische Arbeit und danken für diesen enormen Zeitaufwand. Das Internet ist wieder um etwas Großartiges reicher.

Hier sind die drei Uncharted Filme:

P.S: Inzwischen hat Andy mit Assassin's Creed weitere Filme veröffentlicht, gibt dem Mann ein Abo für soviel Hingabe.
