Hey Ash, Whatcha Playin': Uncharted 2 photo

Hey Ash, Whatcha Playin is a Dtoid-created comedy series about videogames and cupcakes.

This week's episode may initially seem the stuff of tired conversations and unimaginative theories, but stick with it -- it gets better.

And way more violent.

I've said it before, but it's worth repeating: I really, truly didn't expect to enjoy Uncharted 2 as much as I did. I wonder if it's got something to do with the fact that I had an entire game to get to know the characters beforehand: I didn't actually realize how much I liked Elena and Sully until they showed up in Among Thieves, in much the same way I didn't realize how much Dog and Alyx mattered to me until Episode One.

But I digress -- watch the Uncharted 2 episode of HAWP, and, if you like it, please feel free to tell your friends.

This HAWP is the Uncharted 2 of taking it to the next level.

Ash's Head Asplode effect - so good, we used it thrice!

And it still doesn't get old. Also, is it weird that I can't stop laughing whenever I see your sister explode into a bloody mess of ex-person?

That would explain why I didn't like Uncharted 2; I thought Firefly was absolutely terrible.

Zergling: I'd get that checked out, disliking Firefly and Uncharted 2 is considered a major mental illness.

I probably need to see a doctor too.
For Firefly anyway. Uncharted wasn't too bad.

Is Uncharted 2 a clever Sci-Fi allegory for the post civil war frontier? Just asking cuz I haven't played it.

No, its a really, REALLY good adventure game, with all the set pieces and level designs polished to a sheen, the voice acting and animations unparalleled, and faultless presentation. Escapism done right.

Namedropping Firefly should win over some GT commenters at least.

When are you going to finally credit Herb Alpert's 'A Taste of Honey'? You've used it as the credits song a few times, yet it's never given props. For shame Anthony. Also, twas a great episode.

Didn't think HAWP could get any more awesome, then you threw Firefly/Serenity into it.

Like I said before, I think I love Uncharted so much because it reminds me of Firefly so much.

Holy fuck, you're right. Incidentally, I spoke at a debate about space colonization over the weekend, where I turned the whole thing into a farce and ended it by singing the theme to Firefly. I got a best speaker award.

Anthony, you're treading dangerous ground. This shit is how cults get started. Ive already killed my three closest friends in the hopes that the blood will please you and bring unto the masses more of your divine awesome.

Every time a new HAWP comes out I think to myself, "Oh cool, another HAWP!"

Hurray!

Very funny and excellent editing; although I do miss watching Ash torture/confound Anthony just a little bit.

Oh wow, I LOVE firefly. I watched it a few months ago for the first time (and the movie) it's now one of my favorite shows.

Good ep.

I'm relieved that Pretense-o-tron is impressed.

hmmm, I like references that the Americans don't get and I like hyperlinks to images written as pure text ... but which is better?

I forgot how to embed images... shameful!

I also like to be enigmatic with my references.

@Demonolith
I wasn't being sarcastic when I said "I like references that the Americans don't get", the truth is I do, if everyone gets the references then it's no fun, and it's especially funny when it's Americans that don't get it, not sure why to be honest but it is.

also I'm not from around these parts really, so I don't have a clue how to embed images on comments myself, I didn't even realise it was possible, I just pointed it out because I'm a bit of a dick.

No offence taken mate, I just have a smart answer for everything.

It annoys me sometimes when I'm watching an American made movie and don't get some of the references e.g. Team America: World Police, Bed Bath & Beyond?

That's how I feel when watching some American movies, tv shows and other crap.

I recently started watching the new series of Doctor Who (I some how managed to avoid it all this time) and it makes me smile every time I see a references that I know an American won't get. :D
