This is a list of achievements Naughty Dog has made over the years, usually doing groundbreaking or amazing. i could do the same for Insomniac and Sucker Punch but that would make this blog longer ( i'll do them on seperate blog post in time.) Also i'm doing what i would call the notable moments in the games.
NOTE: i will not do Naughty Dog's past games before they made Crash Bandicoot because i have no knowledge of them.
let's begin
Crash Bandicoot: The whole game is an achievement because Naughty Dog was able to take advantage of the 3D graphics the PS1 could offer, and the fact most games at the time were still 2D or they weren't in the platformer section.
Crash Bandicoot 2: Snow levels in the game would form what i would call " a common thing to see in games from the 90's." and the Jetpack levels were able to show what could feel like in a zero gravity enviroment.
Crash Bandicoot 3: The levels that involed a vehicle are fully in a 3D enviroment and can be free-roamed ( except the motorcycle levels, there in a liner perspective), making Coco playable, limitedly though, and the underwater levels, although at the time many games had underwater levels.
Crash Team Racing: Naugthy Dog was able to popularize their character into a racing game, just like nintendo and mario. NOTE: since this was technically the last crash game ND made, i will move with their next series.
Jak & Daxter: The Precusor Legacy: Much like Crash 1, this game is an achievement, being in full 3D enviorments and no loading screens XD.
Jak & Daxter 2: The change of rated "E" to "T" showing ND is going to be serious, the use of the morph gun and jak's dark powers, having a ton of cutscenes ( even getting an actual award for it.) and Haven city itself and the Palace.
Jak & Daxter 3: The Palace collapesing during the begining, the Wasteland, and the size of The Dark Maker Terraformer ( The biggest thing ND has ever created.)
Jak X: Combat Racing: Similar to Crash, ND was able to popularize their character in a racing ( and to tell you the truth, i've never played this game.)
Uncharted Drake's Fortune: Whole game achievement, in 3D, using realistic people, motion capture technology, and the moment when Drake scales the Fort.
Uncharted 2 Among Thieves: Drake climbing a train to save himself ( doing it twice), Drake and Chloe fighting enemies in a collapsing building and jumping out afterwards, the train levels, and Shambhala.
Uncharted 3 Drake's Deception: Flashback sequences, the chateau buring, the shipyard levels, Ramses ship, the cargo plane moment, The Rub' al khali desert, and The City of Brass.
The Last of Us: The whole game is an achievement, nuff said.
