Hate the review's background music...
Does anyone know what the background music is? It's pretty cool on its' own!
I have played video games for years ever since nintendo came out. Out of all the games I have ever played for the countless systems that have come out Uncharted 2 by far is the greatest game I have ever played. Graphics, gameplay, storyline, voice actors, and most important the game is fun the whole way through. Dont understand how it gets a 9.5. Game deserves a 10/10.
Its been 8 years since this game came out and honestly this puts most current gen games to shame
I agree. The set pieces are still the best in gaming. When it comes to an action packed game with tons of fun that's under 12 hours this game is the goat.
Honestly, Gamespot, we don't want to look at the people reading the review, just continuously show gameplay like EVERYONE else does.
I like physical copy because I like to collect games I own on my shelve. Also because I love the box art and having to just put in the blue ray to play. It l also looks more nice.
NiceR*
The background music almost made this review unwatchable..
Naughtydog : whats a ten??
IGN : COD.
Naughtydog : COD over uncharted?
IGN : i will give uc2 a 9.5 How about that
ramanjot singh it's all about the money, this proves that naughty dog does not pay reviewers
@cloudskipa It's not overrated. Majority of the media and gamers give the game high praises. When you have that kind of general consensus, it's usually a good way of telling the game deserves its high rating. Don't get me wrong, I'm no exclusive fanboy. Some exclusives I think aren't that good to begin with (ex. resistance franchise and killzone 2).
U3 has a really brilliant campaign pacing design
but the story, combat and the level design of U2 are still the best !
Jake Wolf U3 has horrible pacing. Two major set pieces almos back to back is not good pacing. Still love it tho
One of the Best Game of All Time
No, It's not fanboyism, It's not exaggerating, Uncharted 2 is really that good !
Just finished Uncharted 2 in PS4. I had high expectations about this game. The aiming is not bad, and yet not perfect. I was so into the game that I barely noticed it. The overall game experience is amazing, It is not overrated. TLOU is, IMO. The game is rich in so many aspects.
TLOU is a lot better than any uncharted in my opinion, it's not overrated at all
uncharted 2 is a masterpiece, i always love uncharted series
this game shows why ps3 it was a beast in graphics.
It's a proven fact that the PS3 was a stronger system graphically then the Xbox 360. Call me when the 360 can run this, TLOU or God of war 3. I loved my 360, it dominated in online play, but graphic wise? PS3 wins. No question.
U Ramon Torres if i would ve known this game wAs this good i would ve gotten a ps3 just for this game
Love this game sooo much!!! Picked up a PS3 on Black Friday with both infamous games and the first 2 uncharted games. God damn it I love it so much.
The world physics look really impressive
well storage does mean higher resolution textures and also less compression to improve performance. so it does indirectly improves graphics
It is, but not so much. The first one is about learning the character, but there is very little mention of that game in this one. In that game, you search for one thing and here you play another
I preordered this game a month ago...all these reviews are killing me! its not fair u guys get the game way before us :(
4 more days to go......
@BORICUAJESUSLOVER
You are the first gamer I've seen on UA-cam who is actually almost exactly like me. You play games for fun, not to bash other games or say that "this sucks because of ....". Thanks for being an ACTUAL gamer!
this game was amazing holy crap! i do think that the overall graphics from uncharted 2 are alot better that uncharted 1. i think the water effects, the sky and temples looked better in uncharted 1.
Just finished it for a second time since getting it at launch, can't believe this guy doesn't even touch on it's staggeringly gorgeous graphics, a 10/10 experience, can't wait for 3.
Nope, I remember reading an article back in the day that said that every 360 cost $500 to make. But since that was awhile ago that might of changed.
And yes this is much cheaper than the PS3 since when that first came out it cost them at least twice as much to make.
@EdibleWorm which game would you reccomend this or assasin creed 2
I'm not talking about that movie. I'm talking about when technology becomes so advanced we wouldn't be able to tell it's actually graphics in the games. I see how you're making the link with Gamer but.
i have a xbox pc and coming up to a ps3 in a week CANT WAIT KZ3 and UNCHARTED
i hope so, i hope they include some sort of customisation aswel.
1:32 Why do all games make the mistake of letting you see the laser beams from the side. You can't see light. It's simple physics!
Uncharted 2 is a damn blast! Finnished it few days ago and playing it campaign again. It just kicks you right in the action! This is one of those games which change your view to games
Just picked up a ps3 with these two games, can't wait to play through them!
This game by far had he best graphics, gameplay and probably the best storyline and acting i've seen in a video game to day.. it has it quirks, but what game doesnt? Like many reviewers say and i do agree.. this game is pretty much perfection! GET IT, you will not be disappointed
I got this game the day it came out and it is mind-blowing! it is tons of fun and has boatloads of replay value. It also has the best console graphics I have ever seen.
No. This game uses 25Gb of disc space, which is a whole Single layer Blu-ray Disc. (3x bigger than an Xbox disc)
I personally think is all down to Party Chat. When you sign in to Xbox LIVE you normally join a party and start talking to your friends no matter what they are playing. However when you sign in to PS3 you feel lonely because you cant part Chat so you have to send them messages and try to get them to play the same game as you. PS3 needs XGameChat!
for gamespot 2 this game higher than 9.0 it really must be something
@kenndiata no no that's not what i mean, like Indiana is a treasure hunter, Nathen is a treasure hunter. both have a woman with them in their game/movie. thats what i mean
I have just completed this game. It was the greatest experience I have ever had in gaming! Thank you naughty dog.
They're supposed to, they made the guns sound like they would in an old action movie.
This game was definitely worth it. This game almost seems like a transition from a movie that you just watched. Better yet...this game should be ported to a movie. Visuals are gorgeous and gameplay was smooth and adventurous for both seasoned players or casual ones. Online play I believe adds a bit of unexpected goodness. Kinda like forgetting to check your stockings on Xmas day to find out that there's more to indulge in. haha
no he's right, the graphics are slightly better on 360 for cross platform games. I'm thinking about getting a ps3 sometime soon though mostly for uncharted and mgs4. maybe killzone 2
well in the uk there selling a ps3 with a 250harddrivebundle with uncharted, im not sure if the 360 has a bigger one.
I'd say he reminds me more of a modern and much younger Indiana Jones, but I get where you're coming from.
in small corridors it is adviced to use melee or blind fire not to aim with L1 this pretty obvious im suprissed they didnt say it
This is a game I say buy for the story. The multiplayer is a good addition but it felt kinda put in at the last minute. The single player storyline is a great one and with tweaks and skins after you beat the game available makes more great replay value. So, like I said before, the story is what really sets the game apart from other games today ( most are FPS) so this game is still good even today and Uncharted 3 looks very promising.
Its good that the reviewer doesnt want a lot of attention, again, this is about the GAME not the reviewer
Gametrailers has made a list of the top 10 best games of the decade. The only game on that list I haven't played is WoW. So in short, I've played 9 / 10 of the best games released between 2000 - 2010. If we're still following your logic, where awards decide the value of the game, then I'm doing pretty well here.
@jagdiggarstoratuttar you thought uncharted didnt have smooth controls? i agree gears came up with the controls but uncharted refined theme. btw what was your favorite part of uncharted 2 and gears 2
i hope this game is good im buying a ps3 slim tomorrow and this is definantly the first game im getting
While I really liked this game I gotta agree with him saying the cover system isn't super good and I think the game drops the ball towards the end just devolving into gears type gameplay
I hope the 3rd Uncharted will have an open world like Jak II and Jak 3 did. That would be awesome!
Can't wait until the technology in games become so advanced you're actually controlling what seems like a real person in your TV.
@jagdiggarstoratuttar
You're right PS3 doesn't have Gears, Forza or Halo.. But 360 doesn't have God of War, Infamous, Twisted Metal, Uncharted, Killzone, or Resistance.
you might be letdown by Drake's deception because Uncharted 2 is the best among all three. That game holds a special place in my heart, so much so that even though I havent played it in over 2 years, I still cant sell it
@glensgamereviews it is quite light hearted....
it has it's dark moments,
Jeff, Schafer, etc but overally it's pretty light stuff.
don't forget the nervous finger twiddling at his sides
i was blown away by the first part...this one just took it to a whole new level of bein blown away....
DONT BUY GAMES FROM WALL MART OR ANY NON GAME STORE GAMES
if its the day it comes out go ahead but you can usually get better prices for games at gamestop or online (way better online)
looks pretty cool.
id get it if I had a ps3.
only one complaint from the videos though, the combat look extremely linear, all the bad guys came from one direction, and all the maps had you going in one direction
Anyone else think the intro sounds like a review or commercial of some 90s game?
@warrlordd777
Well actually, at the Spike 2009 VGA's UC2 picked up Best PS3 exclusive, Best Graphics, and GotY. It also won MANY other awards at other award shows, including 10 awards at the Interactieve Achievement Awards, including Overall Game of the Year.
@D1Champ08 thanks for your opinion. I'm thinking about getting the game myself, and i'm glad to see someone who has something to say other than "BEST GAME EVARRR."
i think the online maps are WAY to small.. and im not fond of the random spawning points. but i love it
the shooting on this game has that android free to play look and feel
i played UC2 but ive only seen cutscenes of UC1 and no online is a no deal for most gamers
@maphunter1 besides blu-ray, Naughty dog and other exclusive developers, bluetooth and ps1 support? not to mention folding@home, Playstation home and connectivity with psp and vita?
Looks fun. I like the more arcade style play as opposed to war simulators. This is yet another game that makes me want a PS3. I don't own any next-gen consoles yet.
And another thing man. THey have already said the 360 has reached its full potential in graphics. And PS3 is a 60%
Gotta agree with you there. I used to be a 360 fanboy. I was all just "Fuck PS3. 360 RULEZ!". then I got the RROD, got to play the PS3 extensively, saw how good the online network is, and it completely changed my mind. Plus what you say about blu-ray's true. It's not just to play movies, it allows exclusive games to have so much more content than a standard DVD.
Yeah the voice actor is same I know that. I think he does a great job he's my favorite voice actor after David Hayter.
Yeah Nathan Drake is a great guy and all but Prince is a very old and classic video game character you know. They were probably inspired by the old adventure/treasure hunter characters like the Prince and Lara Croft when they were creating Drake, and they did a perfect job, creating such a believable and likeable character. BTW graphics are amazing o.o
no the thing is for me it never gets repititive because u can download new maps from bungie like racing map zombie maps and type of maps
yeah i noticed that too and why do they always stand ramrod stiff, eyes locked on the camera whilst talking?
uhhh... the only problem about this review is that they said that the aiming can be bad in close quarters
i just want to say, thats what blind/hip fire is for
my one complaint about this game is that the puzzles are too easy, the journal was a good idea but i think it would've been better if the puzzles were just a little harder
other than that, this game is amazing
Why would I be upset when I have a PlayStation 3 and enough money to buy a hundred copies of this game? As I said, I have played about 75% of the games' total length and then I got bored. Didn't you read that part?
Again, how does my defending of Halo prove that I'm in the Microsoft camp? I simply replied that Halo has - just like Uncharted 2 - won numerous awards, so with your logic, Halo should also be an amazing game, right?
... off to play inFamous 2 ->
Some people have enough money to buy games, and the loss of 50 dollars doesnt hurt them as much as some other people.
I don't know why people say that uncharted series is rip off gears of war and lara croft
.They say only because its a third person shooter which is awesome and the people who say this are jealous of the awesome games the ps3 owners have
i dont even own xbox 360, but i just dont get why people are butthurting and cursing eachother for which console is better. now thati have ps3 i often wish i had xbox360 just for Gears of War or Halo. also, if i had xbox360 id be dreaming of uncharted and infamous (for example).
is there such thing as Game of the Decade? i think there should be
@MRsaxoholic
It depends on what you like; uncharted is just an awesome game with hood multiplayer, while god of war 3 is a great single player game if you like the 1 and 2 games. If you haven't played either games, buy uncharted, it's a complete package.
i tried the demo and its really fun.
Don't hate fanboy your gears 1 and 2 are 720Pnative all they did was upscale it and like they already said about the 360 they already hit the peak of the system the graphics will never get any better than gear2
@Peteioz123 Yes the first one is amazing and you will not regret buying or playing it.
I think im going to get this over AS2 wat do you guys think?
I just got my ps3 (fat) a got COD4, COD5, Bad Company, NBA 09, RSV1, Burnout paradise and NFS carbon, im ordering the bluetooth headset, mw2 motor storm pacific rift and RSV2, and bioshock2 when it comes out
i have 360 and ps3 and i must say this game is the best i have played yet online is so cool as well my ps just gets better and better!
pluss the reason sold so much is because it has motion controled pad wich every one fought was great but all you do is move your wrist aound wow thats cool and because people try to get fit with it even thow its almost impossibl
I think this is one of the few games where I think going against the computer AI is more fun than human players. I love the coop mode
I thought Killzone 2 was going to be the forever highlight of PS exclusives, then Uncharyed 2 came out and even to this day I still play it...
I thought that was the limit, then it was time to conquer RPG's, Demon's Souls the most immersive and detailed RPG I have ever played, perfect controls, hardcored difficulty (made for adults!) insane creatures and boss fights.
Then Infamous (GOD DANG IT WILL THIS EVER END!?) well Sony had to exterminate superhero games, God bless you Sony!
This is a 1st day buy for me.The beta is amazing.
@jtm5989 is it a lot better then number 1? Everyone seems to love this game so much and I didn't like drakes fortune that much. I didn't hate it but it was just okay
I sort of know what you're saying. Also imagine the controversy if stuff like that airport scene in Modern Warfare 2 looked real.
I agree with everything this guy says but i'd like to add i own both and can safely say that this game will still be epic and the beta multiplayer alone has got me hooked on playing PS3 online - anything else i'd much prefer to play online with xbox community as it is far better.
Very bad audio made me quit watching this review early
I have a PS3...... thats my point its not into native 720p.. upscaling can do so much but the matter of the fact is a blu-ray disc will always be better than a DVD. Sure it can upscale, But it will never look as good as if it was at native 1080p... Do your research eh?
First game has some screen tearing.
How is this sequel?
unrealdevon doesn't have it, it's polished almost to perfection. I also noticed tearing in first game, mostly when riding ski jet.
Or were you not aiming it directly at me?
@evilryutaropro: What does this mean? Couldn't understand what you were trying to say...
I agree. Uc2 not only looks WAY better but i think the combat is way better too.
there are 3 things in the MULTIPLAYER thats missing 4 the game itself 2 get a perfect 10.0
1. More varities in weaponry
2. A feature that allows you to customize your very own custom character like MGS4 (that way there wont be 5 different drakes in one match)
3. DESTRUCTIBLE EVIORNMENT!!!
im not saying the game is bad but its not perfect....im still gettin it anyway lol
I'm an Xbox fan now, and I still absolutely love this game
-Hundreds of collectibles
/ As if they actually made the experience better
-Loads of replay value
/ Don't agree. I played about 75% of the game, then got bored and never finished it.
-One of the best story lines in gaming
/ Erm... sorry, but no. Big budget action flicks rarely deliver on the story department.
-Outstanding graphics
/ Didn't like Crysis either.
-Top notch dialog
/ Well yeah, if you're into this sort of thing.
-Great combat and climbing mechanics
/ Just above average, yeah.
What does "Platformer" mean? I never understood that.
The story was actually better than UC 2's it's just that UC2 had a better story overall with a bit better pacing, longer and better character development. UC 3 was a better package with it's much better MP IMO.
