Best PS3 game ever (yeah, this review sucks, I'll remake it)
You know what I love in a summer movie? Story lines of epicness, Characters with great personalities, Adventure, and explosions. The closes thing that I got to a perfect Summer movie with all that was the Last Indieana Jones movie(yet I wounder why people make fun of that movie). Now here's a game that has all of that, and manages to be better than Indieana Jones 4 and 2, and all of 2009's summer block busters. Uncharted 2 is simply put an action movie in game form all the way through and the best action games in years and the best PS3 game made. As with the first Uncharted, you take control of Nathan Drake as he set off on a quest to find the lost fleet of Marco Polo. Along the way, you meet up with New allies, Like Drakes EX-Girlfriend Cloie, and old friends like Sully and Alana. The game is simply put action movie through and through. While it's not the most original tale, It's handed in such a unique way with some many plot twist that you won't see coming, you won't notice it. That, and great writing and great characters that act so real. This time around, things are a bit more linear this time around when it comes to design. Your basically on one path and your constantly being pushed forward to the next fire fight. Your doing more shooting than the first game and less platforming and puzzle solving. Unlike the first game, where you were stuck in an island area, there is more variety this time around. You'll be in snowy mountains, in destroyed cities, and so much more. In terms of gameplay, things have stayed the same and for the better, and there are tones of new things this time around. There are levels when the environment is actually moving around with you and you get that feel of a summer block buster movie other new feature are silent take downs, these aren't necessary, but are fun to pull of, all thought the stealth mission, early in the game, was a bit frustrating. Now that the new is out of the way, what has been fixed form the first game? Well there aren't enemies that aren't coming out of no where trying to kill you once you finished killing enemies. The fire fights are much more tense with destructible cover, and enemy A.I is much smarter this time. This is a challanging game, but Uncharted 2 never feels unfair. The platforming sections are less, but still fun. The puzzles are also fewer, but still fun. This time around, if you do get stuck, there's a help system that doesn't give away the puzzles away, but helps more than the note book in the last game. Like it's story, Uncharted may not have anything original, but it's handed in such a great way, you won't notice. You get all of this, and a great Multiplayer that doesn't feel tagged on. You have your standard modes, but they are so much fun, and a cool mission mode that put's you with 2 other friends in a Gears of War like Hord mode. In terms of presentation, This is the best looking game ever made. Character models are fantastic and animate fantasticly, debre falls so real, it could be real, and so much more, that I don't even know where to begin. The audio is just as impressive with outstanding voice acting that bring these characters to life and and an outstanding music score that fits each mode. If you have a PS3, then what are you doing reading my review? BUY THIS GAME NOW!!!!! it's the best thing I've played in a long while and is one of the best games ever made.
