The Playstation 3 exclusive Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune focuses on a descendant of the historical explorer and sailor, Francis Drake. When Nathan Drake finds out that his ancestor faked his own death, he begins searching for the fabled treasure of El Dorado. On his quest he discovers a previously unknown island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean.

The storyline looks to be a relatively strong part of the game. Although the use of a historical figure may irritate those of us nerdy enough to care about anachronisms, so far the game looks interesting.
