    The amount of hype for this game is insane, and I'm just curious, do any of you 360/PC/Wii owners want a PS3 because of this game?

    Yes.  I've been thinking about getting a Playstation 3 and Uncharted 2 has sealed that deal.

    Not really. 
     
    And this game isn't getting THAT much hype.  I haven't seen people flock towards gameplay vids of it (like MW2) nor have i seen a single commercial for it.

    I'm not overly excited for UC2, I am curious though. To be honest, my must have title coming up that makes me want a PS3 is Heavy Rain.

    Not really. The games that make me want a PS3 are MGS4, Heavy Rain and Valkyria Chronicles. Uncharted looks very good, and I'd probably buy it if I had a PS3, but I wasn't so impressed by the PAX demo that it warranted buying a console

    I think most people are concentrating too much on the graphics and presentation as opposed to the storytelling and gameplay mechanics.

    Which are equally as top notch.  The game isn't just a pretty face.  Yes it is pretty....but everything else about it is of equal quality.
     
    If this game doesn't make you want a PS3 I would only be able to assume you will never want a PS3 because you have a 360 and/or  PC and thus don't want another gaming system.  Otherwise, I don't know what is wrong with you.  I mean, ya, not one game will make you buy a system but Uncharted 2 is just another one on top of many.  
     
    Glad I have everything and played everything (own 360, PS3, PC).  PS3 is my goto gaming machine especially these days (and bluray player of course).

      Also, by itself, no. When you add it to the PS3's growing library, then, yes, it does.

    True. It's a great game alright but asking anyone to spend $300 just to play this is asking a lot. At the same time there's lots of great games for the PS3 now so it wouldn't hurt to get one if you've got a bit of money.

    Yes, but it's not just Uncharted 2 alone. The PS3 has grabbed enough exclusives I'm interested in to have my interest.

    The Playstation 3 has a number of compelling exclusives. For me, those include mostly Little Big Planet and Valkyria Chronicles. Uncharted 2 would certainly be a consideration, but it hasn't changed my prospective future concerning the ownership the system.

    Not great online (AKA terrible downloadable pollicy with 5 download max; Fewer available quality downloadable games; Almost no online community component; Significantly less online users). If you don't know that the overal online and multiplayer expirience on the PS3 is pathetic compared to the 360 you obviously dont know much. So when someone says that the online expirience of the PS3 is "not great", its not too hard to understand the meaning of that statement.

    actually it is.  PS3 online is great.  There is a difference between the quality of the online service and then comparing it to other online services (which is obviously what you are doing).
     
    Quality downloadable games.  Subjective.  I will agree with you tho.  However, the growing PS1 classics library (finally I get to play Silent Hill 1) beats anything and everything on Xbox Live's Marketplace.  No online community component....not even sure wtf you are talking about with this.  Significantly less users.  Compared to what?  Does it really matter?  Not a single game on PS3 do I have trouble finding a people to play with.  I don't even know why I would have to say that statement because it is so stupid...it's not like I buy a PS3 game and go "oh god I hope other people are gonna be playing the multiplayer".  Doesn't even cross my mind.  I mean, why the hell would Zipper make an online ONLY game that supports 256 people playing at once if there is no one playing PS3 online?....

    A little bit. Not just Uncharted 2 though, but a few games that I want to play on it now. 
     
    Namely Uncharted 1 and 2, inFamous, MGS4, and maybe Killzone 2.

    The hype has helped for me, as I'll here it on all the podcasts recently. I've always wanted one and since the price drop, the price is right for me, just wanna find a good priced 60GB to play my PS2 games; also have a few PS3 games anyways.

    1. The only true way to determine the quality of something is to compare it to other things that are simillar. So your wrong there. 
     
    2. Play station one games are in no way better than the Live Arcade let alone summer releases. Especially because they are games that already came out so that doesnt even really count when you could just buy those shitty old games on ebay and play em on a ps2 or ps1 if you really wanna play decade old games. 
     
    3. You obviously pretty ignorent (or else just trying to be an asshole on purpose) if you dont understand what im talking about, and so im not even going to try to explain to you the concept of what an online community is, or why people play games online with others because aparently you don't understand any of that. 
     
    4. And the thing that everyone is worried about with MAG is the fact that the PS3 doesnt have as good of an online community as the 360 (which i guess your not going to understand because you cant grasp that concept). Especially when the PS3 doesnt even come with a standard mic (even if you get one there is no one that uses it anyway) which is predictably going to be a problem for MAG so they are prbly going to have to give you a mic when you buy the game. 
     
    Also, idk if you know this, but when you have friends it is possible to play a system even when you dont own it. So stop getting mad when someone points out the obvious faults in a system just because you somehow feel a personal connection with the PS3 and you feel compeled to defend it (even though you really have no reason to). So why dont you take your little fanboy self and stop purposfully being a dick when someone hurts your feelings by pointing out the faults in your oh so precious PS3.

    1. actually it is.  PS3 online is great.  There is a difference between the quality of the online service and then comparing it to other online services (which is obviously what you are doing).  


    2. Quality downloadable games.  Subjective.  I will agree with you tho.  However, the growing PS1 classics library (finally I get to play Silent Hill 1) beats anything and everything on Xbox Live's Marketplace.  
     
    3.No online community component....not even sure wtf you are talking about with this.  Significantly less users.  Compared to what?  Does it really matter?  Not a single game on PS3 do I have trouble finding a people to play with.  I don't even know why I would have to say that statement because it is so stupid...it's not like I buy a PS3 game and go "oh god I hope other people are gonna be playing the multiplayer".  Doesn't even cross my mind.  
     
    4. I mean, why the hell would Zipper make an online ONLY game that supports 256 people playing at once if there is no one playing PS3 online?....  seriously guy...talk to me when you actually play a PS3 or at least form an intelligent argument. "
    1. The only true way to determine the quality of something is to compare it to other things that are simillar. So your wrong there.  2. Play station one games are in no way better than the Live Arcade let alone summer releases. Especially because they are games that already came out so that doesnt even really count when you could just buy those shitty old games on ebay and play em on a ps2 or ps1 if you really wanna play decade old games.  3. You obviously pretty ignorent (or else just trying to be an asshole on purpose) if you dont understand what im talking about, and so im not even going to try to explain to you the concept of what an online community is, or why people play games online with others because aparently you don't understand any of that.  4. And the thing that everyone is worried about with MAG is the fact that the PS3 doesnt have as good of an online community as the 360 (which i guess your not going to understand because you cant grasp that concept). Especially when the PS3 doesnt even come with a standard mic (even if you get one there is no one that uses it anyway) which is predictably going to be a problem for MAG so they are prbly going to have to give you a mic when you buy the game.  Also, idk if you know this, but when you have friends it is possible to play a system even when you dont own it. So stop getting mad when someone points out the obvious faults in a system just because you somehow feel a personal connection with the PS3 and you feel compeled to defend it (even though you really have no reason to). So why dont you take your little fanboy self and stop purposfully being a dick when someone hurts your feelings by pointing out the faults in your oh so precious PS3. "

    I own a PS3 and never play it, but this game is making me extremely giddy. Also, my most anticipated game for the past 3 years has been Heavy Rain. Lets get it on.
