10 Video Games That Would Be Awesome In First Person

8. Uncharted

With the upcoming release of Uncharted 4: A Thief's End in 2015, Naughty Dog's signature franchise is still very much on the minds of gamers. A series that has been steeped in critical acclaim, it's way too much fun to imagine Drake's globe-trotting adventures unfolding in the first person perspective. The explosive set-pieces from Uncharted 2 are some of the finest gaming moments of all time, but just think about the incredible train car sequence happening in first person. The intensity of the action scenes in the Uncharted franchise lends itself perfectly to the first person perspective, as it ratchets up the fear one might have during these scenes all the way up to eleven. Not to mention that the gunplay and hand-to-hand fighting in the Uncharted series has always been a little spotty, so giving them a fresh coat of paint might also help things out a bit. By addressing a few of the smaller minute-to-minute game play problems that afflict Uncharted and putting it into first person, you create an entirely new way to see Drake's adventures.
