Uncharted 2 - a worth replacement for Indiana Jones?

I finished Uncharted 2 a few days ago - and although I certainly don't want a film to be made based on the Uncharted franchise, I feel that the game could replace the Indiana Jones franchise for the new generation of children growing up right now.

It's more "indiana-jones"-like than the fourth Indiana Jones Movie (which I've already said was a disappointment). Uncharted 2, however, is not a disappointment. It is an absolute success. It looks like a good film, sounds like a good film, progresses like a good film, and plays like a great game. Although Uncharted 2 has an alright multiplayer part to it, the single player story alone is worth the price tag.

If you've played Uncharted 1, let me assure you that the frustrating gameplay elements have (almost) been taken out entirely. No longer will you be shooting hard-to-hit enemies that can take about 10 bullets to the face. No longer will you have to battle wave after wave of enemies in the same area. No more running out of ammo. Uncharted 2, while being difficult and very unfair in a few areas, is such an improvement over the first that you start to forget the fact that it has flaws (namely, a few enemies in the last stages of the game that can take about 100 bullets right to the head before dying).

Anyway, I'd just like to say that it's a great game, with a good story, and it was worth every penny.
