    After seeing review copies of the game auto-update people's Twitter pages a few times per hour, Naughty Dog has decided to remove the "Completed a Chapter" tweet from Uncharted 2.  Other updates are still available in the game (joining multiplayer games, hitting level milestones, etc.), but removal of this particular tweet should help to drastically lower the frequency of tweets being made.
     
    IMO, I still think they should completely remove the whole feature.  At the very least, don't make it automatic.  Having an option to tweet that you are playing multiplayer and want more people to join would be much more acceptable.  Twitter is pretty useless and annoying when everyone posts random thoughts, but it's actually a nice tool when used as an greeting to do something social.
     
    [edit]  Just noticed that my title is a bit misleading (Twitter is still in the game), but I can't edit thread titles.  Sorry.

    It isn't automatically linked to your account once you start up the game is it?

    @Andorski: Good, I was thinking it would automatically link to it by using your PSN e-mail address or something.

    If we complain loud enough, will they get rid of the pointless multiplayer and make a decent single player game?
