IGN Interviews Uncharted's Evan Wells



IGN decided to find out what's going to be in the demo for Uncharted: Drake's Fortune and even if we might see a Jak title on the PLAYSTATION 3. The interview reveals some interesting details.

The Uncharted demo weighs in at around 1.2GB of data and it will probably be about 20 minutes of gameplay. It starts off with a bit of setup with the story and then lets you get warmed up with some traversal, and then throws you into several sequences of combat. We've left the selectable difficulty in there too so you can try it out in any of the three modes.

It seems that Naughty Dog is not planning any downloadable content for Uncharted: Drake's Fortune. They do, however, want to take advantage of any HOME integration features that they can.

Wells was also questioned about a Jak & Daxter game for the PLAYSTATION 3, he answered:
"We're all very excited about the technology, engine, and development environment that we've created during the production of Uncharted. Believe it or not, even though the push to the end of this project took a huge effort, everybody is already champing at the bit to get started on what's next. We're doing a lot of post mortems to identify what worked and what could be improved across all departments so that we can achieve even more with our next project. As for Jak and Daxter, there are still a lot of people here who would love to work on the franchise again, especially using all of the cool tech that was developed for Uncharted. However, exactly when you might see that is still anybody's guess."
