There are a ton of small problems with Uncharted 3 that really took it down a few notches for me. The aiming is funky, I don't care what their justification was for changing it, and I don't care if they think it's better. It wasn't broken, don't fix it.
But the aiming is just one of many problems with the game's combat. There was a fight where I got stuck in melee combat and I couldn't just walk away from when other enemies started lobbing grenades at me, so BOOM instant death.
And stealth is almost nil in this one. No matter what, at some point you'll have to go out guns blazing, and the room will fill with those shotgun jerks who take too much damage while snipers fill the room. If I'm behind cover and a shotgunner comes close to me, I can't just turn the gun to SHOOT him, instead drake goes into awkward blind fire mode, even if he's right next to me.
I played through the game on normal and beat it, but when it comes time for me to go treasure hunting I'm sticking to very easy. I want to have fun.
Also, why the hell did they get rid of all the cool single player bonuses? That's such a huge bummer.
