Anthrax is an infection caused by bacterium that produces symptoms like severe skin lesions, hematemesis, high fever and extreme shortness of breath, among others. None of these are present in the game, in fact the El Dorado pathogen keeps its host alive and acts much like a mutagen. The game never confirms whether the plague is caused by a virus, a bacterium or a fungus either.

* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: Not a globe-trotting adventure like its successors, and the dynamic between Nathan and Sully is not fully formed yet, here more like business partners and friends as opposed to Sully's more recognizable ParentalSubstitute role; Sully's DisneyDeath early on is forgotten relatively quick by Nate, a much different reaction from how he would respond in a similar scenario later in the series. Nathan is also more of a devil-may-care wisecracker here compared to the sequels where he is more mature and concerned about the situations and consequences he finds himself in, and his voice is pitched a little higher than the rest of the series.

* ActionCommands: Far more than in the rest of the series. The team at Naughty Dog have said that one of their goals with the second game was to move past this trope and give players more control over situations that are normally relegated to cutscenes. This makes the already amazing experience that much better.
* ActionPrologue: The game opens with pirates attacking Nate and Elena on their boat.
* AlreadyUndoneForYou: ''Drake's Fortune'' is infamous for this. Drake has the journal of Sir Francis Drake, the "only way" to solve puzzles to open doors in the ruins. The minute you go into said doors, there are heavily armed mooks already in the room waiting in ambush.
* ArtisticLicenseHistory: Combined with a little bit of GratuitousSpanish. Nate realizes that El Dorado refers to the statue, not a city, when pointing out that "El Dorado" means "the golden man". It means "the gilded one", and the real El Dorado was a [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/El_Dorado tribal chief]] who covered himself in gold dust.
* BackstabBackfire: [[spoiler:Navarro]] betrays his employer near the end of the game, only to become the target of Nathan's wrath.
* BadassInDistress: Elena breaks Nate out of prison after he's captured by pirates. In his defense, he was captured while in the process of protecting Elena.
* BaitAndSwitchBoss: In Chapter 17, Nate enters a large room containing [[SuspiciousVideoGameGenerosity lots of weapons and ammo]], before Eddy appears. [[spoiler:''Then'' Nate and Eddy are both ambushed by Descendants.]]
* BloodstainedGlassWindows: Twice near the end of the game, to show how grizzly the Descendants' kills are without actually showing you.
* BodyHorror: When [[spoiler:the virus kept inside the statue of El Dorado makes contact with someone, it instantly turns them into a bloodied mouthed, pale eyed zombie.]]
* BookEnds: [[spoiler:The game starts and ends on a boat.]]
* BottomlessMagazines: As is the case in many video games, all machine gun turrets have infinite ammo. Also, Elena has infinite ammo and never needs to reload when she uses a weapon while riding behind Nate in the Jet-Ski sections of the game.
* DifficultySpike: Chapters 17 and 18 get a lot harder along with the GenreShift into [[spoiler:survival horror]].
* ExplodingBarrels: All throughout the game, but especially in the speedboat sections.
* GenreShift: In Chapter 17, the game becomes partially [[spoiler:survival-horror, thanks to the poorly-lit Nazi base full of ravenous, psychotic descendants of the Spaniards and Nazis that stumbled upon El Dorado, with a creepy soundtrack and a DifficultySpike to boot]]. This lasts until Chapter 19.

* HollywoodDensity: Nate guesses that the statue is on the island when he sees an object in a log weighing the equivalent of about five hundred pounds.

Adding the "Next Gen" effect, produces a gross, dark, gritty filter that bogs down the art.
* TheVirus: [[spoiler:El Dorado, the MacGuffin of the game, is a giant golden statue which turns out to be a golden '''sarcophagus''' containing a dessicated mummy -- which carries an anthrax-like plague which turns all it infects into '''zombies'''. The Spanish colony on the island was overrun by the zombie plague, and Sir Francis Drake made a HeroicSacrifice to flood the city and destroy the boats hoping to prevent the plague from spreading. The Nazis later discovered the island, the sarcophagus, and thus the Virus, which converts them as well. Roman is also infected when he opens the sarcophagus.]]
* YouGetWhatYouPayFor: In Chapter 14, after having a discussion with Eddy Raja, Gabriel Roman has this to say:
