Yeah, it's nice to see the game selling so well.
I haven't played either game yet... if I did pick up a copy would you recommend UC1 first?... or just pick up the second?

If your DA:O addiction stops any time soon ;) (great frontpage article, BTW) Then I fully recommend getting UC1 first. Simply because not only is it a great game, not only is it now dirt cheap to get, but it introduces you fantastically to nathan drake.
He is one of the very, very few characters I adore playing as, as he is an 'normal' human being, and more importantly, not a dick-hole of a man, which seems to be the vast majority of male leads in videogames. As a male, I can sympathize with his seriously unfortunate luck in both games, something that I don't do with other video game male leads. The story is excellent to boot as well.
Do yourself a favour (and a late Christmas present) and get UC1, and enjoy the hell out of it. After that is done, get UC2 straight after if you like, or wait till you get time to enjoy it fully, it is definitely NOT a game to be rushed.
Hope this helps. :)

It's nice to see it selling well, but the online community is trumped by Modern Warfare 2 on the 360.
I log on Uncharted 2, and sometimes it takes up to ten minutes to get into a game, and only a few thousand people are on. I boot up MW2, it takes 10 seconds, and there's always 100,000 on at all times.

yea I played the game @ my friends house... gosh its addictive and I hate tomb raider style of gaming. This game has to be game of the year.
@Mushman
Glad you're back dude. You've got a lot catching up to do! Uncharted 2 is indeed amazing. It's a never ending roller coaster ride from start to finish. I don't know how far you're into the game but I can safely say you ain't seen nothing yet! Enjoy the hell out of it!
@Elsa
I would also recommend playing Uncharted 1 first. Not really because of the stories following each other up but mostly because the first Uncharted was an amazing game as well. And still is. It's nice to see what Naughty Dog has done with Uncharted 2. The first was amazing, the second is even more amazing.
@Magnalon
No shit. Of course it is. What does that mean? Nothing. Uncharted 2 is all about the single player. The multi-player is an extra. MW2 is the other way around. You're comparing and action adventure game with a First Person Shooter. It wouldn't make sense it there were more people playing Uncharted 2 online than MW2.

@pedrovay2003 - seconded. I have been gaming for close to 25 years now, and I can not think of a single game that has brought me as much enjoyment as this game has. Even the multiplayer is fun as hell. I'm not sure what kind of connection Magnalon has, but I don't have to wait more than 30 seconds to get into a game, and the experience is far more tactical than MW2's run-and-gun fiasco.
Definitely my GOTD. And no, that's not a typo, I meant game of the decade.

You must have special powers Mushman: http://www.destructoid.com/the-winner-of-destructoid-game-of-the-year-2009-157649.phtml
I still have not played a tiny winse of Uncharted 2, but to see [url+http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BpeBVtaZApY]this[/url] as the very first scene of the game, is just too much darn action to see coming up ahead.
I love Uncharted 2. I thought 1 was good but it's good to see that 2 is better in every single way and I personally think it's better than Modern Warfare 2. Definitely my GOTY.
Also why have you not signed up to Dtoid UK dude? You need to come hang out with us!

It's no wonder you're pissing on me based on a fact: that's your MO!
Did I say Uncharted 2 sucked? Nope! I'm simply pointing out that I'm sad that I have to wait (sometimes a long ass time) to play a game.
Lovin' that unfettered undying Magnalon out of context hate!

I just got my platinum in Uncharted 2, it was the first game I bought for my PS3 since Killzone since I'm a huge 360 fanboy, now I can't get off my PS3 because of this game. I can't get enough. :D
@Elsa
I actually got a PS3 fairly recently, and I'm definitely happy I made sure to play Drake's Fortune first. It's a pretty solid game, with great visuals and writing. It's not perfect, and in fact the flaws can be rather noticeable, but that's the beauty of it: Every complaint one could have about the first game is fixed in the second, and everything it did right is made better.
You could skip the first, as the story isn't that relevant to the sequel, but there are certainly some shout-outs, and you'll ultimately get more out of it by playing both.

The only thing out of context is comparing MW2's online with Uncharted 2 in this blog. I just thought your comment was kind of weird and unfair.
I'm certainly not pissing on you. Why didn't you just say "I'm sad that I have to wait (sometimes a long ass time) to play a game." like you said in your second comment? That's a lot clearer than comparing it with MW2.
I never said you said it sucked. Where does that come from? Seriously dude, you need to lighten up. If you criticize something you can expect somebody to react. In this case it was me that said something (and Pappadukes but you must not have seen that or you just love me so much that you only read my comments).

I was at work when Pappa commented :P
I need to work on wording my comments better sometimes, regardless.
