If you have a ps3 and dont have Uncharted 2....GO GET IT NOW! After my review
Story: You play as Nathan Drake, a treasure hunter/thief who is great at shooting a gun, climbing pretty much anything and getting the girl...but he also gets in trouble...A LOT! Immediately when the game starts you are on a train that is hanging off the side of a cliff, you have to scale the train while its falling apart, Drake has been shot and you dont know why, then it flashes back as to how this all started. On your journey you will solve puzzles, grow attached to some characters, learn to hate others, but the end result is a fantastic Indiana Jones-like story that is 1 in a million. 10/10
Graphics: The graphics are very good, not bad in any way, but it doesnt push the console to its limits. The good thing is though there is no change in effects from gameplay to cut-scene so it pulls you into the game more thinking that these characters are real. 9/10
Characters: Drake is an amazing guy, he is virtually fearless, he is confident, he makes smarta$$ remarks, funny, he is what you want out of a main character. The rest of the cast is great too, they have a villain you love to hate, 2 women with mixed emotions (like all women) and more, the voice cast did an amazing job. 10/10
Gameplay: The gameplay is awesome, but like I said if you are looking for gameplay never seen before in a game you wont find it here. The game is seperated into sections, scaling a building to open a door, fighting a group of men than running from a tank, its sectioned off most of the time so you know whether to run, fight or climb stuff. It makes the transition very smoothly, the shooting works well and explosives make hiding behind things a life or death choice. The AI is smart and will challenge you even on Normal.
Multiplayer: If you get the Game of the Year edition you unlock multiple skins for multiplayer, any Killzone or Infamous fans will want these as you can unlock Cole (good and bad) from Infamous and....the red eyed guys from Killzone. In multiplayer there are a ton of objective modes, but if you just wanna fight people Deathmatch is there too. You can scale walls and hang off of buildings, all the stuff you can in single player but you can do it all in multiplayer. Camping isnt an issue since the game is focused on a hide and shoot mechanic, if someone is on a building trying to camp you can easily hide close to them than chunk a grenade without looking over to throw it, the multiplayer is fun and addicting, maybe not as much as Halo or CoD but its still top 5 out of all shooters. 10/10
Overall Uncharted 2: Among Thieves is a great experience guys, I havent played a game in quite awhile that I just wanted to see what happened or that I really felt like I knew these characters (I think the last was Final Fantasy X haha) so if you love a great story, great gameplay and great multiplayer get this game! If you hate all that well....you probably own a Wii.
