This is not a review of Uncharted: Golden Abyss, though it could well be. The Japanese version of the game, which shipped with the PS Vita at launch, offers full English-language support, including dialogue, menus, and even Trophies. But this isn’t a review, because — despite having had the game in-hand for a week now — it hasn’t quite gelled with me enough for me to finish it off.
To Golden Abyss’ credit, my failure to have completed it yet has a good deal to do with its length. Currently I’m about a quarter of the way through the adventure, if chapter count is anything to go by, but I’m guessing I’ve sunk at least four hours into the game. Given the production values on display here, that’s a rather generous amount of content. See, if nothing else, Golden Abyss is an amazing-looking game.
