Uncharted 2: Among Thieves – Review

My last post was pretty old, and this new post is here to say one thing – I’ve gotten the game and I’ve completed it. Last Saturday on the day before my birthday, I picked up my copy of Uncharted 2: Among Thieves at none other than Gamer’s Hideout at e@Curve (formerly known as Cineleisure Damansara). On an unrelated side note, I noticed boxes of DJ Hero being carried into the store – more poison for me!

Uncharted 2: The Review

The gameplay is overall as smooth as a baby’s bottom. It’s more or less straightforward, linear – you keep moving and you don’t stop. Except when you’re stumped with cryptic puzzles. Or trying to find a way to the next area. I’ll bet even MENSA members will admit that sweat was shed while playing this game. According to one of the the BTS (Behind-The-Scenes) video, they used the Havok engine to enhance gameplay and make players do more stuff they can’t do in the first game.

The weapon selections are more or less the same like in the previous game, AK-47, M4, SAS-12, Moss-12, 92FS-9mm, Dragon Sniper, Mk-NDI grenades, and so on. Occasionally you’ll have the chance to use RPG-7′s to take down helicopters and tanks, M32-Hammers to launch similar projectiles, mounted guns, mounted grenade launchers, GAU-19′s. Boom! You can also, at certain locations, use Crossbows. There’s more than just these!

[SPOILER ALERT IN THE NEXT PARAGRAPH]

The game starts off with an excerpt from the middle of the game, the Cliffhanger part. It is exactly the same as the one shown in the official trailer I posted in the previous post. Then it moves to a Turkish palace museum in Istanbul. Then it moves to the jungles of Borneo. And then the war-torn streets of (i’m assuming) Kathmandu, Nepal, although it never said which city it was specifically. Next you’ll have an adventure on a train, and the train car you’re on hangs precariously off a cliff – like in the first chapter and the official trailer shows. A small Tibetan village, a hidden mountain temple, a bumpy (and highly explosive) truck-hopping ride along a cliffside fireroad leading to your next area, a mountain-top monastery which hides the secret path to Shambala, which is a beautifully green place. ‘Nuff said.

The characters are the protagonist Nathan Drake (duh), while the other characters appear by your side on-and-off throughout the game. Elena Fisher, ‘last year’s model’, as she puts it, you’ll bump into her in Nepal, along with her short-living cameraman Jeff. The main antagonist is Zoran Lazarevic, a Serbian war criminal who is after the main treasure of the game, the Cintamani stone. Chloe Frazer is the game’s ‘new girl’. Also Harry Flynn, who at the first part of the game appears to be a good friend, backstabs you and works for Lazarevic. Victor ‘Sully’ Sullivan appears again in this game, helping you out in Borneo as well as making another appearance at the calm ending of the game, going after Chloe Frazer (possibly to ‘pick’ her up? LOL).

Before I spoil anything else for you, I’ll just say this at the end of every good review I give: Play the damn game.

My Ratings: 97/100.

Uncharted 2: Among Thieves – Out Now!

This is another newly-released video game for the PS3. I’ve played the first one, ‘Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune’ and the game was tremendous. The storyline, the action, the settings – everything. It’s the next Tomb Raider, fellas.

Naturally when I like something, I buy it. But this was 2 weeks ago, and just for good measure I stopped by at Gamer’s Hideout and placed my name on the pre-order list. At the moment it’s already been out for a few days, but I haven’t been able to pick the game up yet due to being busy as we are currently moving to a new home and I’m having my final exams now.

Anyway, just for the annoyance of all of you, I’m gonna repeat that the first game was EPIC. It’s a Platinum-status PS3 game now. I sooo can’t wait to pick up my copy of Uncharted 2: Among Thieves. The following is the official trailer:

So that’s all I have to say about it. Once I get my hands on a copy of the game, I’ll be sure to post a review of it! Until then, stay tuned.
