Stunning seven-minute video shows full airport scene

See all of CVG's GamesCom 2011 coverage

This is the one - a direct-feed, full-screen HD video of the incredible Uncharted 3: Drakes Deception demo shown off at this week's Gamescom expo in Germany.

Naughty Dog played through this section of the game on stage during Sony's press conference - earning itself the loudest cheers of the whole presentation with its stunning action scenes.

During the demo Drake busts his way onto an airfield and chases a jet before boarding it and causing all manner of havoc on board.

720p. Full screen. Pronto.

    Okay, I will admit it does look good (although most of it looks like a cutscene or QTE) but what I watched just looked like a combination of Indiana Jones and The Living Daylights (James Bond) out-takes...

    Talking of Bond, favourite main songs anyone? Favourite is 'You only live twice' (RIP John Barry) but guilty pleasure gotta be 'View to a Kill'...

    Not too shabby.

    Absolutely stunning!
    As much as I'm looking forward to Batman, I'm more looking forward to this.
    Imagine what number 4 will look like on PS4!

    Is UC confirmed as a trilogy or anything? Just thinking when you said about a 4th there dude. Isn't it possible that this could be the final?

    I doubt naughty dog are continuing this one. They probably plan to leave it behind the same way they left jak and daxter.

    Naughty Dog have said it's not a trilogy and they'd like to do more.

    Naughty Dog head honcho Evan Wells won't go so far as confirming Uncharted 4, but he does say that the series "wasn't conceived as a trilogy at all", and says that there are plenty more places he wants to take Drake once this outing is done:

    "Every single episode is a standalone adventure. We full like we can keep putting him in these scenarios that are self-contained that anyone can pick up and play, but if you have played them and know the characters and storylines it can be an even more rewarding experience. I don't see why we wouldn't keep going and making more of those adventures as long we've got the ideas."

    The good thing is when they do 4, you know they will take their time and do it right.

    He's no Indy- but that was veeeerrrrry cool. Can't wait to see that scene again but with fat drake hanging out the back of the plane. :)

    I think the genius of Naughty Dog's game design is that when its played right and flowing then it all does look like a seamless cut scene. In that whole sequence I think there was only one button prompt. The animation all blend into each other so fluidly it just looks astounding.

    I liked U2's absense of loading screens between chapters, it really keeps you in the game. Apart from the 30-40 second start up load and a 2-3 second respawn load there isn't any while playing, not that take you away from the experience.

    I'm glad that pile o' s**te is absent as well.
    Unless you get to shoot Bono in the face.
    At point blank range.
    As many times as you like.
    Oh I see. You were refering to Uncharted 2.
    Stoopid me.

    Bono would never have been present, he never stays in one place long enough, in case Inland revenue try asking him questions about his taxes
