Agreed, I almost caved in and gave $40 used for it at Gamestop. I'm glad I can get it for $30 new now.

That Uncharted 1 demo really bit them in the a$$. The demo made the game less interesting and fun for me. It was like a tutorial only at first and then had some random fight in the jungle that i still wasn't good enough to beat.
Everyone saying that the game is great is why they were able to pull above that but just imagine how much better it would have sold had there been a proper demo.

In contrast
The Uncharted 2 demo will be online only and basically similar to what the beta was and because of that I see it outselling the first by a lot in addition to causing an increase in sale of the first game.

Is easily one of the best games I have ever played.

DixieNormS5383d ago

Uncharted is one of the greatest games ever. Also Limited Edidtion Socom the one with the headset is selling for 40$ reduced at Target. Just letting you know.

Abash5383d ago

Now I'm going to pick up both today

steck675383d ago

Those of you who have not played Uncharted, get it.

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

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_Mal1471d 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.

@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.

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.

Profchaos1471d ago (Edited 1471d 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

Rimeskeem1471d ago

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

Movefasta19931471d 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.

My favorite is the building collapsing on Uncharted 2.

goldwyncq1506d ago

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