Uncharted as a 3D side-scroller? That's ... a novel way of looking at it.

Sure, there's plenty of shooting and brawling, but the focus is on
exploration and platforming. It reminds me very much of classic
side-scrollers such as Castlevania, Flashback, Blackthorne and even Pitfall.
of course, its more direct lineage is Tomb Raider, which was an early
attempt at bringing side-scrolling action into 3D.

I didn't say it was wrong. I said it was novel. :-) I can see that, yes.
Certainly much the same sort of gameplay, at least if you leave out the
story-driven nature of Uncharted.

I wouldn't call God of War a side-scroller, but more a bird-view 2D
game.

Oh, /that/ Bullfrog.
I think I still have my copy of Syndicate laying around somewhere. It
was an OK game, but not great. (Either that or I'm doing it /completely/
wrong...)

It's pretty much a mix of a side-scroller brawler like Golden Axe and
fatalities from Mortal Kombat.
It only takes a bird view when there's too much action on huge
environments... the rest of the time, the camera is close to the action.

Sure. It's not so much the tone of my voice, it's the way I talk at half
the speed of all the normal people.

his brain multitasks so much that it's causing a delay in the aural
