One of the best reasons to buy a PlayStation console over an Xbox is "Uncharted." The action-adventure third-person shooter — from Naughty Dog, one of the most beloved game makers of the past few decades — follows the story of Nathan Drake, a treasure hunter, on his quest to find, you guessed it, lost treasures.

The second game in the series, "Uncharted 2: Among Thieves," is among the top-rated games across all consoles, and the latest game, "Uncharted 4: A Thief's End," is easily one of the most beautiful games ever created. You've never seen how good a video game can look until you've tried an "Uncharted" game.
