If by "pushing what games can be" you mean "mostly treading water but getting prettier", sure.

Not that there's anything wrong with taking a good formula and just telling a new story with it. Not everything has to innovate (and in fact I think the games industry has an unhealthy obsession with innovation for innovation's sake), but I think it's safe to say Uncharted isn't exactly moving games forward as games. As a storytelling medium, sure (which is important, I agree). But as games? With gameplay? I don't buy it.

I really like ND, and (almost) everything theyve made has been a really enjoyable experience. But the Uncharted series has never been groundbreaking except in terms of "hey this game has a good story"..
