This is how Uncharted 2 manages to drop jaws from the very moment you start the game. No dull tutorials or any of that rubbish. You're hanging off the side of a bloody mountain. A very pretty mountain. And this is cinematic camera work at its best.

You spend most of the game working with at least one AI partner, and here's one moment where it really works brilliantly. You sneak stealthily into an enemy camp while Sully stands in wait. Then you're spotted and he lets rip with his sniper.

One minute you're sneaking stealthily around enemy bases, the next you're machine gunning fools on the roof of a train as it blisters through a spectacular mountainous setting. And try as we might, we couldn't spot any looping in the passing scenery - it was all new and continuously stunning.

This is just one big technical willy wave. Look at the snow, the ice textures, Drake's clothes getting dirtier, his interaction with the environment and witty narration that make him such a likeable character.

We did this video to show you how much choice you have in gun fights. If you hold up at one cover spot you'll be flanked AND you'll run out of ammo. We stealthily eliminated the first few goons, which also got us some big weapons. Then we scoped out our options and let rip with a rocket. From there you can flank enemies, press forward, retreat, use the environment in different ways, use grenades and even lob explosive canisters.
I want to watch them but I really don't want to spoil it for myself when I do get it. Tempted though. At least this new video player means I couldn't even if I wanted to, so that's my willpower a little less challenged
I'm sorry CVG but I'm not watching your videos. Nothing personal, I'm not watching the clips on any site. I want to fully enjoy this game when I get my hands on it in a few weeks. I've been enjoying the beta and that will do for now.
It's only a couple of weeks away and I've already pre-ordered, so I appreciate the effort you've put in CVG but I'm another that won't be watching the movies due to spoilers.
The attention to detail is incredible, the way Drake comments on even the most inocuous of things (with the player still able to identify the item/event) is very impressive!
NO CVG!!!! I don't want to watch your spoilerific videos. Surely no PS3 owner in their right mind would watch these. I've not watched any videos thus far and want to keep the game as fresh as fresh for my first play through. I guess xbots and wiiboys might like to check out what their systems are lacking though.
Being a non PS3 owner I will happily watch the vidz CVG .
All I can say to the PS3 owners about to play this Game is that your eyes will bleed, bleed tears of joy (a bit over the top I know but it does look stunning!).
Maybe I wont drink for about 3 months and save the money to get a Slim (then again, I dont know if I want it that much ).
I watched the last vid (open gun fight) as it didn't seem as if it would spoil the story.
The first thing that struck me was the variation in taking out the bad guys, especially compared to the first game. The stealth mechanics look enjoyable and the shields look very useful. Cool stuff.
Oh, and great kill on the vid, guys. I'm talking about the guy with the shield, who, when hit with a grenade, did a nice death arc over Drakes head..
Only watched the first few seconds of the 4th video so not to spoil myself too much. But seriously I think ill just stare at that forever when i get my copy
ok ive been playing it since tuesday...i need to stop. also brutal legend aint that bad either, but uncharted 2 is so epic, i hope people f**kin buy it unlike the first one!!!
the game is stunning beyond belief. the water, the snow is god damn incredible, the skin is more realistic. everything about it is unf**kingbelievable. 23 hours of playing has ended in me platinuming it after a day and a half. haha! gonna show my girlfriend loads of the best bits tomorrow.

I think she'll need more than the best bits of Uncharted 2 after your gaming disappearance!
I thought my 2 and a half hour stint was impressive....
Anyway, it is easy to see why everybody has been praising it so much - it's basically an interactive movie of the highest calibre. I didn't want to put it down, but some of us have to work!
raced down to asda this morning to pick this up. they didn't even have it out on the shelves! however some of us have to work so i've not had a chance to play it. i've not watched any of the above videos as i don't want to spoil it. i may well be up late tonight

Even an old, jaded cynic like myself couldn't believe what I was seeing on my TV last night. Honestly mate, It'll be like renewing your vows with your eyeballs. Absolutely tremendous. I feel deeply sorry for those who are missing out.

I'll tell you what, those 2 and a half hours felt more like 10 minutes.
No work tomorrow, so tonight Uncharted 2 will get a good hammering. Which incidentally, is probably what your missus will be after....
mark my friend, it worries me that i have to think hard about what i'd rather do, the game or her. HAHA. now that should be a line on metacritic for uncharted 2.

That's just about the perfect summary of Uncharted 2. Shame the install takes so long.
The game doesn't install, it runs off the disc. That is why there is never any loading once you start playing, but it has to load up a bit each time you boot it up.
Anyway, apart from the opening sequence on the train, these aren't even the best bits! There are way better stand-out sequences!

It's all centred around personal preferences though... yes, on the whole, Uncharted 2 should appeal to a larger population due to its pacing, mild difficulty level, Indiana Jones theme, characters and seamless presentation - like you said, almost like watching a movie. However, I think their next step is not to go back to the original Uncharted, but to advance Uncharted 2's strengths further; for example, even more interesting set pieces, more fun fighting without losing the pace - the suggested water level may be interesting to revisit in the inevitable sequel that the ending strongly hints at?
there's an install? I didn't notice mine install anything. odd.
Bloody brilliant though. just got into the temple in nepal.
but but but... with Bluray being soooo slow it has to intall! A game with those graphics and cut scenes running off a disk, just not possible...
Look at Killzone 2 and its massive install!
Do you even own a PS3? Killzone 2 doesn't have an install, silly rabbit.
Come on man, I know you're not the sharpest knife in the drawer but you're not that thick.
Actually... thinking about it, you probably are!
Thats the wittiest comeback you could think of, oh come on, i knew you had very little imagination and almost no sense of humour but really. Ok here's one for you. all together now.

YOU FIGHT LIKE A DAIRY FARMER!
Fight like a dairy farmer?
You comment like an idiot.
I think we're all about as grown upoas we're either going to get or want to get.
What's incredible to me is that ND still need to ruin the games in crushing mode. UC2 is ok in crushing mode up until the boss in the train. This bugger is over the top, stupifyingly difficult. It's a shame. This may well stop me from getting platinum on UC2. As did the f**k up ND did in the first uncharted title with glitching the crushing trophy (I'm stuck on 93% in that one). Bah!
Why do you even bother coming on here. How can you call yourself a gamer if you don't know the appropriate retort to 'YOU FIGHT LIKE A DAIRY FARMER!'
google it. go on. i dare you.
To laugh at your comments to be honest.
I'm already a sky subscriber aren't i. bloody cheek.
Seriously if laughing at spelling mistakes and typos funny, maybe you should consider a career as a proof reader. You could laugh yourself silly and make some a living at the same time.
Thanks for reminding us all what a petty, pathetic unimaginative and poorly read cretin you are.

hmmm. It's a simple reqest rally. but i guess you don't know the correct repost to my insult. or lack the imagination to come up with anything other than you make spelling mistakes on other threads. HUR HUR HUR.

From the top. one more time.
YOU FIGHT LIKE A DAIRY FARMER!
A simple reqest... rally? I don't even need to go to other threads you idiot.
Thanks for proving my point though. Who's the real idiot here though; the guy that keeps repeating the same line from a game over and over again, in the hopes that someone will provide him with the appropriate response. Or the guy who through some kind of misguided compulsion to always get the last word in, in any argument continues to reply even though he doesn't know the answer?

You're that thick you can't even see the irony in that statement. I await you're reply even though according to you replying is a misguided complusion.
as usual, you completely forget the notion of context dear boy. I'm saying that your need to respond even though you do not know the correct one are a misguided compulsion, i on the other hand am just repeating the same same phrase ad nauseum untill i hear it.
i think its a bit of both really isn't it. Over and over untill the end of time, that is unless i get the answer. Therefore it would not be ad infinitum.

Please... an unimaginative dullard who can spell big words like their, really, sense etc. 'you are an idiot' wasn't an answer, it was a fact and you talk about context. Get back to answering those phones moron.
Sorry mate i work for a construction company, although i do have to answer the phone occasionally i'm usually found filling in spreadsheets.
Shouldn't you be shuffling papers somewhere or wasting tax payers money.
besides idiot is such a subjective phrase. I might be prone to simple typos that most intelligent people would just gloss over. But i could be a fantastic musician or a brilliant mathematician, or be incredibly technically minded, i could be an incredibly accomplished artist. If mere linguistical skills are your only barrometer for intelligence than i pity you.
as usual your lack of whit, guile and creativity lead you to attempt to attempt derail the current point of discussion becasue you simply don't know the answer. But you won't be beaten by the fool of this forum oh no, i'm far too big and important. Say's voodoo. By showing others minor inadequcies i can hide my own. Yes this'll make them respect me. Not think i'm a petty t**t at all. oh no.
All i asked for was a simple response to a classic line, in a classic PC adventure game. A simple request, which you cannot fulfil.

once more, with feeling;
YOU FIGHT LIKE A DAIRY FARMER!
It's because, not becasue! Bloody hell! I suppose that's one of those typos.. that you just happen to er make all the time . And I have not attempt to attempt to derail anything.
I'm guessing you've never had a job in telesales then. Do you know the kind of restrictions they place upon thier computers, most don't have the internet, in a traditional sense or they have restricted access meaning you can browse pretty much nothing other than the comapny website.
I have full net access. you with me sherlock!
You see the fun thing about this little back and forth we have going here. Id that the end of the day no doubt we'll both go home and think we came out on top. Mutual ego trip for a slow day at the office.
Anyway one more time. for the guy in front without a clue.

It really does shock me that an educated man such as yourself can't come up with any better response than pointing out grammatical and spelling mistakes in other guys posts. It sadens me, really it does.
But it does lead me to one simple conclusion. Which is this. You've never played the Secret of Monkey Island. which in this monkey's opinion is the greatest tradgedy of all.
Well here's some homework for you young voodoo. Grab a copy through what ever means,
and finally find out the correct response to......

No Monkey, you not being able to spell basic words and feeling have to lie about your job is the greatest tragedy of all. Spin it what ever way you like. I actually feel quite sorry for you now.
But i haven't lied about my job. I'm a quantity surveyor for a construction company. Turns out one can work for the other. who knew that people that have a job work for a company.
Seriously if i was going to lie about my job i'd at least make up something interesting like i was a games designer or i worked for the beeb.
I know you don't have any imagination but it doesn't mean the rest of us don't.
And no the fact that you've never played monkey island is the biggest tradgedy here. But considering you have absolutely no sense of humour or logic skills, it probably wouldn't be your thing. Pfft and you call yourself a gamer.
Of course you are, you just can't spell those big difficult words like their, because or even tragedy (I even bloody corrected it for you in my last post ) or string a basic sentence together. Your reports must be a barrel of laughs for your boss never mind clients. If lying about your job and calling yourself a 'real gamer' brings a bit of colour into your life you go right ahead. I just find you kind of sad. Get back to answering those phones and putting those files away.

your loss not thier
I can't remember saying I've never played Monkey Island. I think you've just made that up, seems to be a habit of yours. I won't answer your question because it clearly annoys you so much. By doing so I get to sit here and laugh at you again and again and again. I'll check back in a few days to see what the village idiot replies with.
Jeez, even when i don't post, you talk to yourself. didn't know you enjoyed this little back and forth so much.
I find it funny that your only repost is to point out minor typing irregularities and insinuate that i am dishonest about my current employment in order to make yourself feel superior.
I know it's saddening to think that in your tiny mind someone on the same wage bracket as you doesn't read through and meticulously correct any minor grammatical and spelling mistakes he makes on an internet forum. Shocking, some of us have better things to be getting on with.
Your instant assumption that someone who works in a Call centre as stupid also shows a sort of base snobbery that shows us all what a cretin you are. Many great minds had Joe jobs while coming up with some amazingly insightful and important discoveries or works of creativity. The thought that your level of employment is equal to your intelligence is only held by people with little intelligence or personality of their own and believe that it’s their profession than makes them who they are. This to me shows a complete lack of character. I have a Job but I am not my job. If i worked in a call centre i would say, I work in a call centre, but I don’t and never have.
The fact that you won't respond to my quote just shows to me that you haven't played Monkey Island. Anyone who has just wouldn't be able to resist. This doesn’t make me angry it just makes me pity you more, as always.
YOU FIGHT LIKE A DAIRY FARMER!!!
PS is it just me or was uncharted 2 way too bloody easy. In fact I’m getting through it on crippling faster than i did on Hard.
Jeez, even when i don't post, you talk to yourself.
/facepalm
Talking about assumptions, I can't see where I said you worked in a call centre. I guess you just assumed that for some reason . There's plenty of other jobs out there that involve answering phones.
they made the wii brand = fun. Thats what people want from thier games.
cash ins and party games but becasue it is the console with the biggest install base and the lowest development costs.
Yes an assumption based on the fact that you decided that my main task at work was to answer phones. Doesn't take a giant leap of logical deduction to see what you are inferring.
....and your point is what exactly. Do you work for the sun or something. you take two relevant things i've said in another thread about brand recognition and then call me stupid.
Seriously, oh i see it's because i spelt their wrong. How incredibly astute of you. well the rule is i before e except after c. However I oft forget that 'their' is the exception in english, but not in American. Odd that. Then again the great thing about American English is that like most other languages words are spelt like they are said.
If you're going to quote a rule try learning the whole bloody rule then you won't look like the ignorant prat that you are. I before E, except after C or in sounding like A as in neighbor or weigh!
However I oft forget that 'their' is the exception in english, but not in American.
Not in American? American a language now is it? It's 'their' in the UK or American you moron!
