Uncharted 2 dev says the truck chase "was taken directly from Resident Evil 5" because The Last of Us co-creator Neil Druckmann thought it was "f***ing awesome"

Uncharted 2's truck chase was apparently added because Neil Druckmann really liked a similar scene from Resident Evil 5.

During Uncharted 2's campaign – in one of the seemingly endless ways Nathan Drake gets put into immense amounts of danger throughout its campaign – you get chased down by a truck down an alleyway that you'll need to shoot enough times to blow it up. Now, according to former Naughty Dog designer Benson Russell (who worked on the Uncharted trilogy and The Last of Us), this sequence only made it into the game months ahead of time because Druckmann saw something similar in another game.
