But for as poignant and moving as Greg Edmonson's orchestral work is in the main game, it's unlikely to get anyone embarrassing themselves on the dance floor. That's where British electronic musician Kirk Spencer's come in, with two remixes exclusively commissioned by SCEE.
The tunes sample Uncharted 3's 'City Of Sand' and 'Desert' orchestral motifs, and add some real gritty bass to the mix.
"Uncharted 3 looks like one of the best action games I've seen in a while," Kirk Spencer said in a press release. "It's a game that I would take a day off just to complete. To be asked to work with the music from it is such a great feeling because I've grown up playing PlayStation games.
"I wanted to make the tracks follow the action packed theme of the game and be quite cinematic. It was hard at first because I wouldn't usually be thinking too much about visuals but as soon as I saw the trailer I knew what direction I was going to take. I've given them my twist which is quite electronic and hopefully people will like what I've done with them."
Sony's Kerri West added: "We came across Kirk's previous work and we were really impressed with his talent at working with non-western musical influences. His sound is perfect for getting across the adventure and epic scale of Uncharted 3. We're really pleased with the final tracks because they express these values effortlessly with Kirk's great use of synth, bass and production values making them feel fresh and contemporary."
Both tracks are killer, but we think 'City Of Sand' edges it for us. You can download both songs for free from Spencer's Soundcloud page.
