YouTube unlocks 60fps playback

Uncharted 3 60fps video shows it off.

YouTube now supports video playback at 60 frames per second (on the Chrome browser only for now) - and you can see how it looks below in our special slice of Uncharted 3 gameplay.

Uncharted 3 runs natively at 30fps on PlayStation 3, but our footage comes from a clip captured internally by developer Naughty Dog that Digital Foundry first covered back in 2011.

As Digital Foundry editor Rich Leadbetter explains in the video, you'll never get to play Uncharted 3 like this unless Sony decides to release a PlayStation 4 port.

However, it does give us an idea at how the next Uncharted game might look - Naughty Dog has said that it is targeting 60fps for that.
