Uncharted 2 Multiplayer Screens

Kombo Writes: "Uncharted 2 will have a nice multiplayer feature. Details are currently a bit scarce, but we do have some new screens to share with you. The screens seem to suggest something that looks similar to Gears of War, except in the Uncharted universe. Let's just hope this a fully thought out idea and not something tacked on.

Aside from death match style multiplayer screens, there are also a few co-op screens."

look quite fake. Although I sincerely hope they are true.
i wanna play the beta all summer!
Drake is soo bulky.

and that treasure looks like it was pasted on..
they even have some co-op screenies.
w/e we'll find out later 2day.
(can't wait!)

King_many_layers5479d ago

nah they don't look fake to me, the lighting's working on all the charcters. The treasure looked a little dodgy, but at the same time the screens look squished.

did you Notice Sully on the floor in one ?? :O XD XD XD very happy about that =)

My favourite new IP just got better.

WildArmed5479d ago

after reading ur comment, I went over them again.
Actually... i think its.. legit.
there i said it lol
Can't wait 4 the beta!

GameGambits5479d ago

This game just went from being in my top 5 of most wanted games of this year to #1 on the list. The picture that sold me was the one where someone was scaling a wall to get up to whoever the lady in red is in the MP. The reason that gets me so excited is because ND stated that this time around Drake would be able to shoot even while climbing, walking tight walkways, etc so being able to gun people from walls to bring death below = amazing.

I was on the fence about buying inFAMOUS, but was going to for sure rent it. Now I could care less if inFAMOUS was a total bomb and a waste of 60 bucks for my tastes, because at least I can have at the MP early.

I'm really excited for May 26th. :)

Coheno5479d ago

It's not fake! A lot of journos were presented to this last week, and the embargo is lifted today, so totally legit!

And this game will now consume my life! Have played the first Uncharted 3 times now, and still plan on playing more! So when this hits...with multiplayer and co-op, it will consume my life!

na2ru15479d ago

to see Sully there too, regardless of him dead on the floor lol, I'm still happy.

Coheno5479d ago

Exactly, embargo is lifted today on those games and what the press saw, so expect a lot of news on those 3 games today...

Rainstorm815479d ago

BUt what hurts the most is when Infamous releases we will get the multiplayer beta for Uncharted, but we will end up having to wait to play it until it is activated at another time instead of being able to play it day one. Similar to Crakdown and the Halo 3 MP beta

ThanatosDMC5478d ago

Oh noes! A multiplayer mode on one of the best looking games this generation! And it looks like it'll retain its graphical look online!

Thepro3185478d ago

Socom should of had graphics like this

Ju5478d ago

KZ just got Killzoned. I mean that in a good way. If those shots are in game, then wow. There is obviously still head room in today's best games. Looking forward to this (and all the competition it'll create to make good games even better in the future).

INehalemEXI5478d ago

yeah , if anything rivals KZ2 gfx it was this.

king dong25478d ago

thats looking pretty damn fine...infact, thats looking amazing!!

another game to go with my ps3 when i pick it up in early june.

mikeslemonade5478d ago

If you think this is fake, then I have to inform you that you are wrong.

As for the screen shots.
Look ok. I for one isn't too big on the Uncharted 2 multiplayer. I am however can't wait for the Co-op. Uncharted is my favorite game on the PS3 and I cannot wait for this baby. I will be playing the Online BETA in a few weeks :) and I can't wait for that. Maybe that will change my mind about multiplayer for Uncharted 2. I hope it changes my mind because I want to love every part of Uncharted 2.

windmill1455479d ago

Pics look incredible, I just hope they add a single player mission in the beta, just to get a taste of the story and get a feel of the new mechanics before I go online.

sunnygrg5479d ago (Edited 5479d ago )

So we have a confirmed competitive mode. I hope Co-op screens soon follow. Then, I would slap every reviewers for deducting a point for lack of Coop.

Edit: NVM, they have Co-op screens too. Now the b!tch slapping begins.

TheHater5479d ago

I remember those reviewers. The b!tch about Uncharted not having a multiplayer or Co-Op but let Bioshock pass because at the time it was an Xbox 360 exclusive.

morganfell5479d ago

Agreed. They attacked Killzone 2 to no end. Why? No co-op. Bioshock? No co-op.

I was playing Bioshock again today - along with about 5 other titles - and one of the things that annoys me time and again is unloading on certain characters in the game and they act as if they are taking no damage at all. They do not slow down for a second until you put that 30th or 40th round in them and suddenly out of the blue a fatal hit. Ridiculous. I like the story but I am not a fan of that outdated lack-of-damage model at all.

MURKERR5479d ago (Edited 5479d ago )

because we went through hell from 360 fanboys and the medias constant bashing it was hell(and its still happening but not as much)but we all hung in there

people now realise ps3 is here to stay,its produced the best game graphically this gen and has the best 1st party line up.

so i dont blame ps3 owners for feeling a little smug these days

jack_burt0n5479d ago

its all in the reflexes.......

Rainstorm815479d ago

the game was going to be great without the MP aspect but now......I just cant wait til the inevitable "Gears2 vs Uncharted 2" stories that will be good for a laugh or maybe this time we wont see any of those kind of articles

Monkey5215478d ago

day 1 60 GB PS3 owner here. We did go through hell

Marcelles255478d ago (Edited 5478d ago )

i wasn't day 1 but bought a 60 gig about nine months after came out
it was a clear choice get an rrod3fixme or the trey for only 100 bucks more worked all through the summer to get that...... im so proud of myself *starts tearing up* *yells, the Power*

OMG Coop multiplayer. AAA confirmed. XD

I see reviewers editing their early reviews already to adjust for the slight "uh-oh" moment.

Currently playing Drakes Fortune on crushing, next will be to replay Among Thieves, but I'm sure it still holds up today.

P_Bomb1455d ago (Edited 1455d ago )

Recently re-platinumed 1-3. Uncharted 2 aged better than I even expected. I enjoyed it more now than I did a decade ago. It’s more polished than 1, tighter than 3 and Yemen in 3 was gorgeous. Shambhala out-prettied Ubar though. 60fps w higher res’ made for a damn good rerun.

Abnor_Mal1454d ago

Question: When you say Uncharted2 aged better than expected, are you talking about the original PS3 game or the remastered collection on PS4. I ask because I think that a remastered version of the game would look and play better than the original.

I doubt that the original ran at 60 frames, how many years old is the remastered collection anyway.

I need to replay the original trilogy along with the collection, not a fan of the collection trophy of beating levels in a set time and don't think the originals required that for platinum.

P_Bomb1454d ago (Edited 1454d ago )

@abnor_mal
It’s true that the remasters have upped the resolution and given it 60fps, but the base game is the same. The art design and base textures/physics/ animations are the same yet still look contemporary. More-so than UC1 which isn’t as tight, or UC3 in some cases which I found a bit clunky in close quarters.

UC2 level design was a great evolution in bringing the verticality from the jungle into rural/urban settings while maintaining smooth animation transitions. Drake still moves better than the ginger in Star Wars Jedi. Outdoor areas are better lit.

UC2 also has more action and better pacing imo, which helps when replaying a game 10 years later. Kept me engaged.

You don’t need to time trial for platinum. They stuck the speedrun trophies in a seperate extended dlc category so have no fear.

MadLad1455d ago

I thought the originals were good, but not great. I understand that puts me in the minority here. That said, Uncharted 4 was freaking fantastic.

Profchaos1455d ago (Edited 1455d ago )

Yeah I understand the hate for 4 prior to playing it I was firmly against it and felt like 3 wrapped things up already but now after playing it I think it was the best in the franchise.

Now I look back at two and I feel like I'm playing an on the rails shooter everything is so tightly scripted including the infamous train scene you simply can't make a mistake

Rimeskeem1455d ago

I think Uncharted 2 is a lot like AC2. Both games took the idea and basically improved it in every single way.

Movefasta19931454d ago

Uc2, AC2,Halo2, Soul calibur 2, Killzone 2, Infamous 2 , Dishonored 2 and a few more. The only negative thing I have against uc2, and imo it annoyed me,are the blue apes, uncharted 1 handled the super natural far better.

The entire final chapter of The Lost Legacy is the best setpiece in the series and it wasn't even mentioned.
