What was Uncharted series hero Nathan Drake up to before he went looking for the lost treasure of El Dorado? Still hanging by his fingertips from rooftops and taking out bad guys by the hundreds, sounds like. In Golden Abyss, we get our first Uncharted prequel as well as our first look at Nate on a handheld–in this case, Sony’s uber-powerful, touchpad-sandwiched PlayStation Vita. No, series lead Naughty Dog isn’t at the helm this time–that designation goes to Sony Computer Entertainment Bend–but they’re keeping an eye on things, and SCE Bend has a solid enough reputation with games like the Syphon Filter series and the PSP version of Resistance: Retribution.
