Honestly, whenever I look at someone's eyes in the game they look like tacked on anime eyes. They're too watery! Are eyes that hard to pull off in video games?
Uncharted 2: Among Thieves
Game » consists of 14 releases. Released Oct 13, 2009
Nathan Drake returns to find the lost secret of Marco Polo, in this sequel to the 2007 sleeper hit Uncharted: Drake's Fortune.
What's with the eyes?
The eyes in the game all looked normal to me, they managed to help convey expressions in more emotional scenes quite well I thought.
I think it may be a case that other games haven't put quite so much into designing eyeballs before so we've come to respect that as the industry standard for eyes. And then Naughty Dog added a little more shine to the eyes in Uncharted 2 and we're all "OMG SHINEY!".....also Chloe was awesome. Sullivan you dirty old man you....

We're just so used to seeing eyeballs being rendered in a dull fashion that we've gotten used to it, it's almost unnervingly realistic. Now that we've got the technology and tools, we can create better looking models, therefore, more time to concentrate on the details. It's not the first game to have shiny eyes but it's one of the best looking eyes around.
I noticed that Chloe's eyes sometimes looked overly shiny, but overall the game looks so damn good that I don't really care.
I did think that Chloe's were especially shiny, but I don't think it's because they just decided to make them shinier, it's because her eye color clashes with her hair. I saw it on a Swedish actress, where she once had blond hair and brown eyes, and she looked fine. Then she dyed her hair brown, and her eyes looked just like Chloe's. Might be why, might not be, I don't know.
Always the eyes.. Nobody ever complains about Sullys goddamn nosehair >_<
What? I can complain about stuff too for no reason other than.. wanting to complain! :O
