Jaw-dropping visuals.
21/20 - AAAA confirmed.
Only on PS3. It only does EVERYTHING.

im disappointed in shooting SOMEONE 1000 bullets till they die !!!!

anyone noticed that also ?

Zedux5350d ago

I still have hopes Killzone 2 will get game of the year award but hey anything Sony is giving us lately deserves that title and it will be in good hands!

SevWolf5350d ago

@ G3tdown: I see your point, but I just want to tell you that it's not actually the game, I also thought it took 1000 bullets to bring someone down, then I watched a few videos of people who were in the beta, and it turns out the guy in this vid just sucks arse :P

cmrbe5350d ago

5 != 1000. in uncharted on crushing it takes about 5 body shots to kill someone. 1 for head shot unless he wears a helmet sometimes 2. I don't see what the big issue is. KZ2 is the same. Believe or not people in real life most people don't die from just one gun shot wound unless offcourse its a headshot wound.

I wonder if people will say this to try to bring U2 down. There will always be something useless someone complains about I guess.

Crazyglues5349d ago

Actually G3tdown the thing is when you play it you begin to understand why it works better this way...

They could have made it like COD4 using the M16 where you drop people really quick with a two bullet burst shot...(no time to react)

or make it like halo -where you see where the shots are coming from as you get hit and you have time to fire back while trying to move out of the way.

-But they choose something in between that works really well, it takes a few shots to put you down but not that many. -so you have time to react but not much - and it makes for some awesome Gameplay.

****ALSO Did anyone notice they seem to listen to the feedback from fans and have added the Head-shot feature, where if you hit someone right in the head at close range they die instantly.. -Really cool.

can't wait for the Public Beta so I can get back to my 50 rank... LoL
I have already pre-ordered this game and if you have not yet, I don't know what you could possibly be waiting for, because this is hands down the GOTY... period.

Christopher5349d ago

I thought the same thing, then I watched it closer. In the beginning, he can't hit anything to save his life. Wasting all that ammo shooting at nothing, and then he could barely get a shot off on their body, but instead was aiming to the left or right of them.

From what I saw, it takes about 3-4 shots with a automatic weapon, 2 shots with a shotgun. From very far away, it took him 2 successful grazing hits to the heard/upper body to take down one person (about 2:15 in the video).

I'm okay with this because I'm not a hardcore FPSer and will need the extra bullet to kill me so that I can get away more often. I'll probably be just as bad of a shot as the guy was in the beginning, unfortunately.

Thats funny joined N4G 4 days ago and already have 8 bubbles how fishy is that? I mean is your life so pathetic that you have to have multiple accounts and bubble yourself up to make yourself seem superior?

Uncharted 2 is going to rock BTW!!!!!

FamilyGuy5349d ago

But admittedly, the lighter Temple multi-player level looks better.

The Co-op mode looked phenomenal in the older beta and I imagine that will be the look of the single player campaign but the online competitive multi-player tones down those graphics slightly but it still looks great.

Gabe EatsWell5349d ago

This account, Gabe EatsWell, is the one and ONLY account I have. I have an account thats been dead for maybe three months now. Please stop making baseless accusations about my bubble count. The reason my bubble count is high? Dont ask me. But I can tell you its because of my username and avatar. People laugh about it and they loved it and many gave me an instant bubble the moment they saw my username. Some were like "lmfao @ your username +bubbles" like that. I know its hard to believe but believe me. I DO NOT have any other accounts. Thank you very much.

UC2 is all about SP not MP

Gabe EatsWell5350d ago

I disagree. And I bet many will disagree with you too.

Nelson M5350d ago

Uncharted 1 was all about SP because it had no Multiplayer
But Uncharted 2 has Both therfore it's about Both MP and SP
Hope that clears that up for You

masterg5350d ago

Anyone who played the beta will tell you.
The MP rocks.

K-Gamer5350d ago

I played the beta and didn't like it at all.

To me it's just an average TPS with nice GFX.

Raf1k15349d ago (Edited 5349d ago )

U2 is the most complete game with something for everyone.
Amazing single-player, amazing multi-player (from what I've seen and read) and most likely amazing co-op too.

edit: I can see why some are saying this vid is underwhelming since it is lol. I've seen much better vids of the multi-player before.

Crazyglues5349d ago

Anyone who played the beta will tell you.
The MP rocks. -masterg comment 2.3

Yes I agree 100%, I think you needed to play it to understand G3TDOWN it was Awesome..

So this year I would say it's about SP & MP because Uncharted 2 has both this time...

JonnyBigBoss5349d ago

I disagree. It excels at both.

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

P_Bomb1467d ago (Edited 1467d 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_Mal1466d 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_Bomb1466d ago (Edited 1466d 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.

MadLad1467d 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.

Profchaos1467d ago (Edited 1467d 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

Rimeskeem1467d ago

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

Movefasta19931466d 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.
