    I had to stop myself halfway since I didn't want to over indulge but can I just say WOW. I really believe every great thing said about this game. It's so slick, the gameplay is so cinematic, it's just mindblowing. This is something that will translate well and totally be appreciated on the big screen at the previews next week.

    @IdeaIndex: Yeah, I guess so. I just wasn't all that impressed with the original, so I wasn't super hyped about this game.
     
    However, last night I downloaded the multiplayer demo, and I was surprised at just how much better the shooting feels. Add some good storytelling and epic set pieces to that, and it looks like this could be one hell of a game.

    @Chaser324:  IT IS! From the graphics and the attention to detail in every scene to the narrative, the brilliantly portrayed and etched out characters to the treasure hunt at the middle of it all, the game is definitely ON. Add to it some amazing gadgets, moves and hardcore hand combat action and we have a winner. I am really eager about the Special Edition Hunter version which is not for sale but only can be won. 
    Going to the screening just for that if not for anything else, the giant screen format HD perfection, the multiplayer live demo and oh yeah, a sneak peak! more than just 10 minutes I hope!!!

    Should I play the first game before this one?  Or is the story kind of like another adventure of Nathan Drake, Indiana Jones style?
     
    One thing I'm not sure I'll like (or I will absolutely love it) is that it looks like I'll always be fucking tense when playing.  Every few seconds it looks like you are about to die.  It is like that in all gameplay videos I have seen.  Sweaty palms, edge of the seat, putting too much pressure on my toes, the whole works.

    @Origina1Penguin:  I think I read in a review that the events of Drake's Fortune are rarely mentioned. Seems Naughty Dog intends to make Uncharted into a semi-self contained Indiana Jones kind of thing, which I think is the right way to go.
     
    Couldn't hurt to play through the original, though. Among Thieves' is reportedly very reliant on character relationships and interactions, so maybe familiarizing yourself with Drake, Sully and Elena might be beneficial.

    I agree with Cornman89.... The game is very character driven. So some backdrop and information will go a long way. Rent the first one and go through it!!!

    Thanks for the replies.  I don't rent games, but I'll be sure to look for the original Uncharted when I get some free time for it.  Character building is important to me, so playing the first game will probably allow me the best experience possible out of the sequel.  Thanks again.

    That frozen mountain and river valley in the backround. It's so breath taking to see that. It must of taken a huge amount of work to create that. 
     
    Give me a PS3, 40 inch HD tv, a dark room, a lazy boy chair and a cold beer and I'll say thank you very much.

    You know it had to happen. Anyway, that looks great and as a big fan of the first game I can't wait to sink my teeth into this one. I am sort of thankful it's still a couple of weeks away cause I have a bunch of other stuff to try and get through as well.

    If this game was any good it would have been on 360 aswell (with better textures and higher framerate), Bill Gates can buy any company he wants that makes good games, thats why you rarely see good exclusives on anything other than the 360. Crackdown, Gears of War, Halo, all 360, all classic games of this generation. I play them online with cross game voice chat.

    1. Bill Gates is no longer an employee of Microsoft, so no, he can't
    2. If the only feature you can think of on the Xbox 360 that isn't on the PS3 is cross game voice chat, then you've run out of things to complain about on the PS3. Here's on feature on the Xbox 360 that's not on the PS3: $50 a year online play.
    Two can play at this game.

    First off, halo, and crackdown are not classics of this generation, Gears yes for sure, but crackdown not really, and halo made its bones on the original xbox. So no. Also you see many exclusives not on the 360, lets see of the top of my head, super smash brothers, inFamous, LittleBigPlanet, i can continue but i won't. Also the better textures and higher framerate are bs. Almost all games this gen run at 60 FPS, o i didn't the 360's 60 FPS is better than the PS3's 60 FPS. 
     
     
    PS Naughty Dog is owned by Sony so there is no chance that this game would ever come to the 360.

    Well I have to say if I had the money to get a PS3 I would go and get this I don't see it as the next messiah but it looks like a pretty kickass game the camera angles were crazy.

    @choffy21:  The game is awesome!!! I have been playing it all day long, prety mch. The graphics are amazing. The score is well infused, the plotline is well laid out and the characters are exciting. The mystery within the story is really engaging. You can check out this clip from one of the screenings to get a better feel of it. 
    Alright, back to it! 
    Feel ya later!
