Uncharted 2: Among Thieves is only two weeks away from release, and I'm pretty much salivating. Reviews are starting to come out now that the embargo (or whatever) came down . . . and as one guy put it, everyone knew it was going to be good, but no one expected it to be this good!
Playstation Magazine gave it 10/10.
IGN gave it 9.5/10.
Games Radar gave it a 10/10.
Even more ridiculous, some French PS3 magazine gave it a 21 out of 20!
It's hard to imagine that any game could live up this kind of hype. At the same time, though, the more I see of it, the more I'm willing to believe.
There are two main things that I absolutely love about this game. The first is the characters, how brilliantly they're acted, how well-developed they are, and how they interact with each other. For example:
The other thing I love, is that even during the gameplay, you get such a sense of Drake as a character... and if that's not enough to turn heads, the insanely cinematic gameplay will. Example:
"Don't you assholes see the helicopter?!" indeed . . .
. . . . . holy crap, this game is gonna be the greatest game in the history of ever . . .
. . . which reminds me, I need to hurry up and find that darker grey shirt before Halloween . . . . .
