Review: Uncharted 2 Among Thieves (My Uncharted Overdose)
DrCGP | 9:31 PM on 10.16.2009 0 comments


What I've been playing

Over the past days I've been playing Uncharted nonstop. Sunday through Tuesday I've been occupied with Drake's Fortune which I wanted to finish to catch up to the story. That's a great game right there. The fact that when I started the game and couldn't put it down say's a lot. If a game doesn't get my attention from the get go I'll probably leave it and gets to be a casualty of trades.

On Tuesday I picked up my copy of Uncharted 2 and there I moved a credit reservation and decided to get Borderlands. I didn't get Brutal Legend because it got mixed reviews. I'll probably get it but there's no rush for it right now. On Tuesday Drake's Fortune was finished so Among Thieves it is.

My Impressions

Warning: After you play this game all others are going to suck. You've been warned.



Uncharted 2 Among Thieves[/b] is awesome! I'm just about on the final stage that took me about 12 hours, I managed to do it in about 3 sittings. This game gets you so involved in the story that is difficult to let go once it starts. This game has gotten many perfect scores, and it deserve them all.

Graphics
The fucking chickens look better than half the lead characters of new games out there! It looks so good its amazing. LOL! It's true! You won't believe it until you see it for yourself. I was skeptical at first. Since I played Drake's Fortune back to back with this one I couldn't see the difference at first. It looks beautiful! The scenarios are vast and well detailed. Character models look smooth and lifelike.



Gameplay

If you played the first the controls are basically the same. Minor tweaks were performed specially the grenade trows feel better this time. Cameras mechanics has been fixed too. No leaps of faith this time. The combat mechanics have changed too. I think there are better than on Drake's Fortune. Gameplay is what you would expect from a game of this magnitude.



Multiplayer

This is the first multiplayer I've played and liked in a long time. Is fun you can do the usual party up with some friends or play with others. What I liked the most is that you don't have to wait too much to find a game and the matchmaking is usually fair. My PSN is DrTron so add me up to play online once in a while. I don't have a microphone yet but I'll try to find my old Motorola's Bluetooth and se if it still works.



[title]Verdict[/title]

Do I have to say it? Go get it if you haven't already and lets meet on multiplayer.
