I personally think that uncharted 2 is heavily overhyped and overrated here. It will be a nice AA game IMO, but nothing amazing. And I also do not see why the graphics are so hyped by cows when KZ2 has much much much better looking graphics. Just want to see your opinions on the matter.

Well these are all the same people who gave gta4 10s.

They got 10s because it deserved 10s, damn I hate when people act like the score they THINK a game SHOULDVE gotten means anything? it also sold over 10 million coppies, and is the highest rated game on gamerankings. if you disagree with all of those reviewers, then you dissagree with every single review theyve ever gotten dont you? I think halo 3 is overrated garbage, with piss poor production values, but that doesnt change the score or the sales does it? Damn, stop being a butthurt fanboy.

certainly looking forward to U2... its not the second coming but it looks like it will be a great game... i trust ND will deliver a great package consisting of Solid gameplay, interesting/action-packed story, great visuals, top-notch voice acting & great online...

Having been in the beta, it was really an interesting experience withboth competitive & cooperative modes..

shakmaster13

I agree that it will be a good/great game. I just don't think that it will be nearly as good as the hype and wouldn't be surprised at all if it was an AA title here at gamespot.

Okay then whats your reasoning on why it will only be a AA game? From the way I see it U2 is an all around better game the the first.

It might be a little overhyped, but not much. The first one is a very solid shooter, good platformer, and an overall great experience. I would give it an 8.5 at this point. The second one looks to improve on everything, and adds coop and online multiplayer People are excited for it for good reason

How can it be overhyped? It has better graphics than Crysis. Don't tell me I'm wrong, I read it in SW.

ironcreed

Come on, man. The vast majority never said that. I have seen a few say that they prefer the overall look more than Crysis and I actually agree with that. But, maybe only a couple of over zealous fanboys have stated that it is actually technically superior, lol. Don't generalize everyone who is excited for this game over what a couple said. Regardless, it does look superb for a console game. There is just no denying that. AAA is not overhyping this game.

I was kidding! :P

it will never score a 10. i can guarantee that. the first wasnt that great. my prediction is an 8.5 on here.and a 89 or 90 on metacritic. itll be lucky to be AAA. the games just not innovative, or unique enough. it just seems like a gears and tomb raider mix in my opinion. it just seems like the fanboys are hyping the graphics. and thats all they have to say.

lol. theyre just about all graphics awards. kinda sad. :( but until u play the game.it means nothing. thats like saying the patriots are going to win the super bowl this year.and giving it to them.they have to earn it.so be it pre-release awards(or pre-season awards) they mean absolutely nothing.especially if it flops. but im not saying it will.im just saying the cows had better not get their hopes to high.especially for a dev, thats above average at best. remember, this is no mgs 4.this isnt kojima, or bungie, or nintendo.or valve.i think the game looks good.but nothing super special. but i do think itll score pretty well.just my 2 cents.

If inFAMOUS and Batman AA can get 9.0s , I don't see any problems for Uncharted 2 scoring well. No doubt it will be one of the best action games of this year , and well worth hyping as any other major title from this year. (or any year)

So when it scores AAA are all you lems going to turn the other way and run? Or are you guys going to just accept you ownage like all good fanboys should and admit it deserves its score?

I think they are used to getting owned at this point lately - MGS4 , LittleBigPlanet , and Killzone 2 pwned them. Gears 2 didn't curbstomp Resistance 2 (lol) , and inFAMOUS slapped around Crackdown. They are gluttons for puishment I guess ..... but Uncharted 2 is not the title I would want to mess with , Naughty Dog doesn't seem to be messing around.

People are better off going after Gran Turismo 5 or God of War III imho (games with a better chance of scoring AA than Uncharted 2).

Uncharted 2 is the third coming of Christ. (The second was KZ 2) Other console owners will just have to deal with it.

Excellent point. People seem to forget how much more U2 has going for it. There is not one area that hasn't been improved on from the original, from graphics to gameplay U2 is a entirely different beast. Why some cant see the writing on the wall is beyond me?

God of War isawesome (god of war II my favorite game of all-time-only scored a 9.2) , but if Gamespot deemsGOW IIIgreat but more of the same ..... then they'll flop it because their expectations will be incredibly high.Uncharted 2 looks to smash Uncharted in every possible area while providing a huge value to the consumer.

I have a feeling that this game will score a 9.0 or 9.5.
