UNCHARTED 2: Among Thieves - Game of The Year Edition - Playstation 3





It's games like this that make me glad I have a PS3
I've only had a PS3 for a few months and to be honest, I wasn't initially that interested in the Uncharted games. But a friend of mine told me that they were the first games I should be playing, saying they were like Tomb Raider with a Gears of War cover system and with voice acting that made it seem as if you were watching a movie. Well, he was right.

While Uncharted was a really fun game, Uncharted 2 surpasses it in every way and wowed me enough to inspire writing this review. While number one took me a couple hours to really get into, number two hooked me from the very beginning. Trying to climb up a train that's slowly working its way to sliding off a cliff in the opening sequence was intense and I enjoyed how the story jumped backward and let you play the events that led up to that point.

Now I am hoping that the game which arrived on disk is playable and I don't have the problems I am now seeing and reading about on Amazon which others are having once loaded on the PS3.
