    It is a good game, but just felt a little to linear and repetitiv to me, go there kill them, when you are done go over there and kill them, no open world, no desire to play through again and I hate games that takes control over your actions and this game does that alot. With that said great story, characters etc.. so an 8 for me, but defintly a must play for PS3.

    I didn't enjoy it as much as the first, mainly due to a couple levels that I disliked. Other than that, a great game with good challenges and actual worthwhile story and cut scenes.

    Normalmente intento no caer en el clásico compara el juego con el anterior de la saga y los típicos etc que son tan comunes hoy en día de ver por Internet. Solo cumpliré con decir que el segundo título de la franquicia supera en todos los aspectos al primer juego.

    El que haya jugado Uncharted 2 recordará haber experimentado uno de los comienzos más épicos de un vídeo juego, la escalada por un tren que se precipita hacia el fondo de un precipicio y está en nosotros escalar verticalmente cada uno de los vagones antes de que el tren caiga al vacío.

    Nuevamente controlamos a nuestro protagonista Nathan Drake acompañado del infaltante Sully. Además en esta ocasión la chica de turno es Chloe Frazer la cual es una cazadora de tesoros igual que Drake. Ahora la historia se centrará en seguir la pista a los pasos del reconocido Marco Polo por lo que la aventura se desarrollará en diversos puntos del planeta.

    También se incluyó un apartado de multi jugador online y local, si bien este componente no es la razón de hacerse con esta obra, es sin duda un añadido llamativo que no resta a la experiencia de juego. Una vez más los apartados técnicos del juego son más que destacables y su sistema de juego ha mejorado mucho pero se siente que aun no esta al nivel de otros juegos del mismo genero.

    Finalmente este es la obra que eleva a la franquicia a lo que ahora es y si tienes la ocasión SI O SI DEBES jugarlo, es probablemente uno de los títulos más importantes de la pasada generación y no lo puedes pasar por alto.    … Expand

    Sin duda el mejor de la saga. Del 1 al 4 este es otro nivel. La historia es mejor que todas, las localizaciones con perdon del 4 es la mejor. Mucha accion y con uno de los comienzos de juego más espectaculares de la historia. Un juego que ha de ser jugado. Y mejora el tema de tiroteos/hordas mucho mejor que en el 1.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. First things first, Uncharted 2 is a vast improvement over the first installment but it is not without it's flaws. With a stronger story and some better characters this time around it's a wonder why anyone would ever play the first game again. It still has a supernatural twist although this time it wasn't as weird but still goofy and still takes from the realism.

    Things I liked:

    - Fixed a lot of bugs from the first game
    - Better gameplay mechanics
    - No more jet ski levels
    - Drake and Sullivan are still awesome
    - Chloe, Harry and Lazarevic are awesome and were great throughout the story
    - Lazarevic was more involved than the bad guy from the first game
    - Great graphics
    - Solid gunplay
    - Better climbing and jumping

    Things I didn't like:

    - Still only two weapon slots, making for less variety in gunfights
    - Very few different types of bad guys
    - Elena still sucks and is probably the most boring character in a video game ever
    - Respawns in some areas are terrible
    - Final boss fight is way too easy
    - Some shooting areas had poor design
    - The story is only 6-8 hours long with little to no replayability

    Overall it's a very solid game and way more fun than the first one. If you're wondering what the monster in this game is, it's not golem, it's avatar instead. If you have a little extra cash and want something to play, go pick it up, it's pretty cheap and has a fun story with the same old Tomb Raider gameplay fun.    … Expand

Uncharted 2 has much better visuals, has a great opening and the train sequence is very outstanding. The biggest criticisms I had for the first game have been largely fixed in the sequel. Notice that I say largely, because there are still issues present, enough I'd wager doesn't make it the 10/10 game critics and fans of the series would like to give it.

    Visual-wise it is very impressive and dwarfs the original like it was a tech demo. The snowy Tibetan mountains, the foliage, the war-zone cities and rain effects are quite good. Despite it still at 30fps it was very smooth on not dipping too much at points.

    Voicework is far improved, and I really love Nathan and Elena's dialogue together. Of course all across the board every one puts on a show with voicework and really can feel like a film and game rolled into one. Whether that's a good or bad thing is subjective, but I can see the allure of fans who love this and will have to agree that the delivery is far better than the first.

    Story is still not great. It still has alot of foolish writing and a thin plot because people tend to attribute grand spectacles and voice work as storytelling. That is not true and it's fine. Indiana Jones doesn't have a super well done plot, it was the action and adventure that people loved and Nathan on a moving train shooting down rockets and helicopters is just being a big dumb action movie. There is nothing wrong with that and I like that alot.

    The combat improves very marginally. Stealth is introduced and is very clumsy and up until the last of us and uncharted 4 I never found any of the trilogy that good. In fact I hated it, so it was just better to shoot first and ask questions later. The enemies still can take more damage than I would like, but adding armored units to regular ones and shields do make strategies open up.

    The villains are not as mustache twirling, but they are not as good as say Marlow or Rafe. Lazaravic does have a intimidation factor, but the overuse of Russian bad guys in many shooters just made it hard for me to really get into his goals and mind. The final confrontation with him in the Tree of Life is definitely better than Navarro, but can be a bit awkward to fight considering its shooting the resin near him to damage him in a running and gunning sort of manner.

    The level design is a huge step up from the first and I will say its pretty good. From museums to jungles to trains to icy mountains, it is refreshing to see the sequence of events change, even if you still fight enemies everywhere you go.

    The multiplayer is ok, but I don't really think it needed it (unlike Gears of War that did).

    People often attribute this game as one of the best games ever made or of all time and I disagree strongly with that. Is it good? Yes. Is it great? at times absolutely. But it can have some stupid moments that is all merely putting you on a set piece and not letting your own creativity sing. The cinematic experience is pretty cool don't get me wrong, but having some control of my situation goes a long way. Uncharted 2 is definitely a well-done game overall. I like it and would recommend it, but I would not hail it as a masterpiece.    … Expand

Плюс ко всему в этой части добавили лёгонькую pvp убивалку времени, так что после прохождения сюжета можно позабавиться денёк другой в ней. И если в UDF каждый игровой аспект пытался перетянуть одеяло на себя и когда это чему-то удавалось, игра разваливалась.

    Another case in which the sequel far exceeds its predecessor; the audiovisual improvement is obvious, improvements in the control to improve the gameplay, which is still the same base, a much better worked plot, beautiful scenarios and sequences, action and compate improved as well. Of the trilogy of PS3 no doubt this title is the best, a classic console and generation.

    A perfect sequel to Uncharted 1, Among Thieves manages to do everything bigger and better than it's predecessor. The cast of loveable characters is back and the new introductions serve the story well. The story itself is a bit similar to the original one in concept but takes us to multiple astonishing locations and manages to keep things fresh and fun during it's entire playthrough.

Uncharted 2: Among Thieves on the other hand, has a helicopter shooting at you while you are in a collapsing building, or making your way to the front of a train and crashing it in the Himalaya's. The story is great as well, taking you to many different places and introducing many new characters like Chloe Frazer. Not many negatives here, although I did feel that the monastery sequence dragged because of the game throwing wave after wave of enemies after you.

    So after not liking the action parts in Uncharted 1 they nailed the balance between riddles, action, video sequences and climbing by a lot. Its way more fun to play and has a good story in it with a lot of characters.

    I still dont like the actiongameplay in its core but its way more comfortable (more grenades, more weapons against the spawning enemies). On the Story only the big enemy isnt that interesting and the bossfight is a little bit lame, as in the game before.

Сейчас бы добавить в игру аборигенов, которые не умирают, после того, как потратишь на них всю обойму огнестрельного оружия, но с 2 выстрелов арбалета они дохнут... В свою очередь они с 3-4 ударов выносят тебя (это я про стандартную сложность).

    Последний босс - тупая беготня с расстрелом, так скажем взрывоопасных объектов, однако минутой ранее антагонист стал бессмертным... Концовка меня разочаровала. Как будто взяли финал первой части, чуточку подправили масштабностью и вот вам конец второй части.

    В остальном же всё на уровне, как это принято у Naughty Dog: умные враги, прописанные персонажи, неплохой сюжет, прекрасная музыка.

    С геймплеем не всё так однозначно. Всё те же проблемы с укрытием, когда игра не понимает, за какой столб или камень ты хочешь спрятаться, из-за чего тебя убивают. Надеюсь, ни только у меня огромная ненависть к веревкам с которых нужно раскачиваться и прыгать. Я конечно понимаю, что нужно было разнообразить игровой процесс, но мне и в первой части проблем с ними хватило, несмотря на то, что таких мест очень мало.

Most of the time you dont even need to think about where to go or what to do, you just walk ahead and the game guides you to the next location.

In den Kernmechaniken unterscheidet sich Uncharted, zumindest auf dem Papier, kaum von den klassischen Tomb Raider Spielen. Klettern, Springen, Ballern - prinzipiell macht Nathan Drake nicht viel anders als Lara Croft. Den Unterschied den Naughty Dog macht, ist aber, wie sie ihre Abenteuer erzählen. Der Focus von Uncharted liegt im Kontrast zu einem Tomb Raider nämlich auf Storytelling und Charakterzeichnung. Die Abenteuer von Nathan Drake wirken daher äußerst cineastisch und verstehen sich eher als spielbarer Indiana Jones Film, weniger als spielerische Herausforderung, die knifflige Geschicklichkeitspassagen und knackige Rätsel als ihr Kerngeschäft versteht. Diese Kurzweiligkeit ist es, die Uncharted so erfolgreich macht. Der Mix aus nervenaufreibenden Kletterpassagen, dem Erforschen von Höhlen, gelegentlichen Stealth Passagen und brachialer Balleraction macht einfach unglaublich Laune. Die flüssigen Übergänge zwischen Gameplay und Cut Scenes kriegt scheinbar nur Naughty Dog so gut hin. Die Charaktere sind klamaukig, ja, aber auch glaubwürdig und vor allem eines, nämlich sympathisch. Nicht umsonst hat Crystal Dynamics bei ihrem Tomb Raider Reboot ordentlich bei Uncharted abgekupfert, denn die Formel funktioniert einfach und Naughty Dog perfektioniert sie stetig weiter. Uncharted Games sind Fun pur. Wer kurzweilige, cineastische Triple A Unterhaltung auf technisch überragendem Niveau sucht, wird sie nirgends anders besser geboten bekommen als bei Uncharted.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Second installment of Nathan Drake's story keeps everything that was cool in the first game - and serves it in a way that is slightly more fun.

    The game was one of the best looking titles back in 2009 and 12 years later it's still visually good. It's clearly seen how the devs were learning to manage PS3's architecture with time. The visuals are not shockingly better than in Drake's Fortune but improvements can be easily spotted.

    Game mechanics are almost the same - minor changes happened in the combat system (melee combat requires a bit more than just button mashing, stealth becomes a thing - but well, still no crouching button...), and that would be it. I'd also say aiming is kinda less infuriating than in Uncharted 1. What didn't change, is no possibility to throw back the grenades and enemies being bullet sponges.

    Speaking of enemies, a big step has been made - they are more diverse than in DF. It comes along with strengh increase: it takes a lot to kill some of them, and they can be pretty dangerous too (especially the ones with miniguns) but the combat is not frustrating. It's an important improvement, as DF's way to challenge the player was to throw out neverending waves of enemies. Here they are a bit stronger and from time to time some cover tactics (cover system is still broken btw) is involved but no more ages-lasting shootouts . More boss fights were added, which is quite cool too. For slaughtering enemies and finidng hidden treauseres the player is rewarded with $$, which can be spent on new weaponds, rendering modes, skins and cheats that can be used while replaying the game and make it easier/more fun. Oh, and multiplayer is dead already (obviously).

    When it comes to level design, it's also more diverse than in the first part. The train sequence, or tank fight are super creative and realized with a lot of details. It's not just running and shooting tho, elements like escorting an injured companion or puzzles (still not enough of them for such a game!) are there too. If you're a fan of Naughty Dog games, you definitely will spot some Crash Bandicoot inspirations. I'm really thankful for the devs to limit QTEs, especially during the final bossfight (it's there but not substituting crucial moments). The game is slightly longer than the last time, yet 12-13 hours should be enough to beat it.

    When it comes to the story, it's a typical Uncharted scheme - cursed treasure, Nazis, monsters and a silly romantic subplot. Nothing new here, yet fun. Cliche done correctly is a good cliche, remember that.

    To sum up - Among Thieves still holds up and is a must if you haven't played such a classic as late as 2021 (like me lol). It's no revolution comparing to Drake's fortune - just same stuff made better. Might want to check out the remastered version - it's available for PS4.    … Expand

También la respuesta del personaje es mucho mejor que en uncharted 1, lo cual mejora la jugabilidad en general. El combate apenas cambia y sigue siendo bastante incómodo y lento, pero sí que se nota una ligera mejora cuando aprietas el gatillo. Los puzzles siguen siendo escasos y simples. Gráficamente también es excelente, siendo un juego de 2009. La historia realmente es buena, te mantiene intrigado en todo momento con mucha acción en diversos e interesantes escenarios, excepto el final que para mí es demasiado surrealista. Dura unas 8 horas, la duración perfecta para lo que nos quieren contar. Sin duda supieron coger lo bueno de uncharted 1 y llevarlo al máximo. Muy divertido.

I have not played the first Uncharted and went into the game with an open mind. I'm not the one to easily fall into the "hype" mode expecting great things. I am a casual gamer and rather a very picky one at that. The last game I found pleasure and worth my time was Metal Gear Solid 4. I have Assassin's Creed and Resident Evil 5 which has been sitting on my shelf for months still factory sealed. One of these days I'll have the desire and courage to try them out. Well, on to the review of Uncharted 2. The game was very fun and manageable even on the hardest level. The cinematics, the voice acting, the story, the graphics, and the gameplay were all top notch production values. The unlockables were interesting and a novel idea. However the problem for me was in the gameplay's cover system, shooting, and platforming that prevented the game scoring any higher. Cover System. Very finicky during firefights where I wanted to cover behind a broken down wall however the character kepted on covering in the open on the opposite side whereby I would get killed in the most frustrating way because the cover system is not polished. And this mainly happens around corners. Keep in mind on the "hard" and "crushing" difficulty levels, you will die alot and repeat a section many many times over until you finally figure out a way. On "crushing", you die with just a couple bullets and the screen turns gray and stays gray for a much longer time than on other levels as well as smarter enemies that will flank you and use team work and their aiming is probably better than yours. That is why a good cover mechanic is so important in the hardest level and online. Shooting. The shooting portion was a steep learning curve for me as I am used to the mouse for aiming accuracy. The right thumb pad is not the best for shooters and nothing will ever beat the mouse in ease and accuracy of shots. That's why I usually stay away from shooting games on the PS3. However after I played through the game once, the aiming and shooting became alot more comfortable and yet it can't ever be compared to the ease and accuracy of using a mouse. Platforming. Now this is the part I hated playing. It was tedious and boring with no replay value. Not that it was difficult rather the fact I was wasting my time on such a wasteful gameplay element. There were too many platforming sections. I would rather view more cutscenes then spend another minute on such a boring and brainless aspect of the game. After completing the game on "hard" and "crushing" as well as unlocking everything and buying everything I would not go back to the single player portion of the game for a long time because of the platforming and puzzle solving sections of the game which was a complete waste of my time. And it's not fun playing certain chapters as it is playing the game from start to finish. There would have been more replay value if they had included different endings and different paths however the game is incessantly linear. And because the platforming is so boring and so frequent, replay value is practically nonexistant. Nontheless, this game is solid overall and kept me entertained for the most part. I will definitely try out the multiplayer and there might be a score upgrade.… Expand

There are also millions of times where Drake and his friends were supposed to die and somehow they survive. Drake is apperantly inhuman since he can climb any small crany in the wall and jump ridiculous distances or catching a ledge at the last secong( for the gazillionth time). It's as if the Naughty dog did it on purpose that the ''platforming'' sequences will be this laughable. The game also has puzzles which test nothing else then your ability of sight( matching colors with status and such, really simple and slightly retarded stuff) so these aren't really puzzles. Putting the **** stuff aside the game is a blast and i mean it. The shooting elements in the game are far better then the platforming ones and are really the best thing about it. It's a 10 hour rollercoaster of fun shooting and it also has multiplayer which is nice. For all that it's worth the game is worth a ride for shooters fans. People who love platforming games( such as mario, sly, ratchet etc) will be really disappointed with the platforming elements in this game.

It still takes the player from A to B and asks few questions of any kind, but there is so much spectacle you can't call it a bad time. The middle section of the game is amazing. The last hour is a bit lackluster, when the game really tests your concentration by spamming enemies so the tempo slows down and you get a bit bored, but even the most difficult parts should be manageable in a few tries on easy mode. All in all, I finished single player in around 10 hours. It left me satisfied, and feeling like I'd just been on a long roller coaster ride. I would have liked more (elaborate) puzzles, more ingenuity, wider use of the physics so impressively mastered in some sequences. It's also soo easy for a seasoned gamer like me to pick out the 'inspirations' for the game. It's all seen before. Whether in Tomb Raider, Gears of War, etc etc. I didn't get very immersed or involved in the story either, since the gameplay had little to do with the plot and I felt like Nathan Drake was a monster rather than a hero... it was like "plot in a clip, pause clip/plot to have meaningless violence or simple navigation, then further plot, then pause".

However, i took away a few scores is because the game is very simmilar to the first 1 and is ethier find another way around or sh*t lodes of people to shoot. And some of the things doesnt make sense, punching actually will do more damage then a AK47 or a shotgun? Ya...think about that. Jumping off a place where its only 10 feet tall and u die, doesnt make sense!! (other mission u jump like 20 feet :O)Also, it always give me hints when i dont need them(i know u can turn it off though :P) when i need them, they dont give me. So i think it will be better if u want some hints, press a button then its there, will be the best option. (too complicate to understand?)… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Uncharted 2 does a great homage for the most popular action-adventure films out there like the Indiana Jones movies. The cinematics are very well done, with tons of detail on the graphics, great music score (especially the Main Theme) and great characters that made up this game. Unlike The Last of Us, where the pace is extremely slow, this game has a ton of action, involving shooting, fist fights and parkour, all blended in with explosions and funny humor, including some puzzle solving. Unfortunately, there are some things that break immersion: it seems more plot driven than character driven, as I felt that there was almost no moment where I feel a connection with the characters, not even Nathan Drake himself. There are moments in the story that made no sense, and Chloe Frazer, Nathan´s new girlfriend, was highly unlikable, because even though I don´t have problem with people who are just themselves, she has an unstable change of personality: she´s good, she´s bad, she´s good, she´s bad, for no apparent reason! Also, in the gameplay, there´s an excessive amount of enemies, and I find it illogical: it seemed that Lazaravich, the antagonist, who is considered to be a major criminal who kills, mutilates and disrupts innocent people, had the entire Russian Army with him. And while the shooting mechanics gets the job done, the melee combat was highly ineffective, as Nathan is somewhat slow to land a single hit. But the biggest flaw is the fact that Nathan kills a thousand enemies like some sort of killing machine, and that may detract the player from the experience. And where the hell is Victor Sullivan?! I think he was the funniest of all the characters here, with the most awesome voice so far, and he doesn´t appear a lot in the game! For the rest of the game, I enjoyed it a lot, especially the boarding train sequence, as it shows a great example of how Naughty Dog handles its technology for epicness. The multiplayer is a ton of fun, and I played a lot of competitive matches. Now, even with the excessive waves and waves of enemies, I found it to be a decent experience overall.… Expand

    Uncharted 2: Among Thieves is great action game that can be enjoyed by all.

Uncharted 2 is one of the most critically acclaimed games of all time which I can see why but I believe that it is not the best in the series. Uncharted 2 had made many graphical improvements since the first entry but graphically it won’t earn any rewards by today’s standards. The game does feature breathtaking environments that look quite impressive for how old the game is. The game also has a variety of settings from a jungle and city environments to the the snowy peaks of the Himalayan mountains. Sadly, The characters models still look cartoony and fake. There are also frequent blurry textures and basic models throughout the environment that show that the game has aged a lot. Uncharted 2 tells a basic but well acted story about the main character Nathan Drake returning on a new quest to find the ancient city of Shambala. The returning characters of Nathan Drake, Victor Sullivan and Elena Fisher are even more funny and well acted than the previous game. The game also features some new great characters that add to the entertaining witty banter between characters. I wish more could be done with the story but it is overall fine. Uncharted 2 just like the previous game is a 3rd person shooter where the player will fight enemies, solve puzzles, and do some platforming. The gunplay is great and has more impact than the previous one and features some great action set pieces. The biggest improvement Uncharted 2 has made to the original is the improved platforming. The platforming is now no longer stiff and clunky. Uncharted 2 does a lot right but I feel it is not a perfect game and lacks the polish that 4th game has. Uncharted 2: Among Thieves is an enjoyable game that doesn’t bring anything new to the table but it is still a lot of fun.

    Uncharted 2 is probably my highest disappointment with PS3. It is a good game. It is beautiful, it sounds good and lasts long enough. However, it did not make it to my top 5 of Playstation 3 exclusives.

    The problem is, just like in the first game of the series, the gameplay. Hours and hours of repetitive shooting with mediocre controls make this game way less interesting than it could have been. It is very cinematic, but many situations are predictable and annoying. All missions can be summed up as follows: Nathan discovers some great place, explores it, solves the puzzle, and... Suddenly, hundreds of enemies - who, apparently, were waiting for you to solve it - enter the place and start shooting at you.
    And, again like in the previous game of the series, enemies (who are just wearing a T-shirt) need 4-5 rifle bullets to die, which is not credible. There are other ways of making the game more difficult, Naughty Dog...

    However, the graphics are amazing and the exploration gained importance in Uncharted 2 with respect to Uncharted 1, and this is a good direction to follow. If the shooting gameplay was great, or just good, this game would have been way better.    … Expand

    Mediocre with highs and lows and slightly entertaining.

    First things first. This is not an adventure game, this is a third person shooter in each and every aspect. The fact that it has many clunky climbing sections and "puzzles" that couldn't pose a challenge even to a braindead monkey is just an insult to the great games of this genre from which Uncharted tries to get inspiration,    Mediocre with highs and lows and slightly entertaining.

    First things first. This is not an adventure game, this is a third person shooter in each and every aspect. The fact that it has many clunky climbing sections and "puzzles" that couldn't pose a challenge even to a braindead monkey is just an insult to the great games of this genre from which Uncharted tries to get inspiration, namely: Tomb Raider before the reboots, and Prince of Persia.
    This is a game that tries to give a lot but ends up delivering a dull and linear experience. The main problem with it is that despite the look of the maps, the game is linear and has a single path. It also frustrates your efforts in playing it more stealthy or strategically by flooding the areas with endless amounts of enemies.
    Though it is a major improvement compared to the first game it's still pretty lacking.

    PROS:
    - Pretty visuals, varied and nice looking environments
    - Balanced weapons(which was a big con in the first one)
    - Fairly long
    - Incredibly cliché but entertaining story
    - Likable characters
    - If you can bother shooting hordes of enemies over and over it's a fairly fun shooter
    - The two stealthy levels were actually good, but the game can't be played all like that

    CONS:
    - If you're looking for an adventure game this is 80% shooting
    - Clunky climbing/jumping controls
    - Artificially extended longevity via really slow trivial animations, need to wait for other characters, wounded Drake walking incredibly slow and stopping for every wind-blow ever, enemies spawning out of empty rooms just to block your path
    - No brainer puzzles
    - Linear maps
    - Many cliches
    - Good shooting dragged down by terrible cover system
    - Pretty maps with bad level design
    - Terribly exposed invisible walls( for example to the right of the temple behind the gunner)
    - No logic behind climbable objects, just the ones the developers chose

    Overall, not a bad game but mediocre to the point that I didn't want to play it again and I probably never will.

    Uncharted 2 is a vast improvement over the first title of the franchise.
    Graphics, setting, character animations, AI, gameplay mechanics, storytelling. Everything is improved.
    That said, this game is still far from perfect. The story is exactly the same as in the first game. You can trace a parallel timeline comparing the events, they are all the same, start to finish. But it is told    Uncharted 2 is a vast improvement over the first title of the franchise.

    That said, this game is still far from perfect. The story is exactly the same as in the first game. You can trace a parallel timeline comparing the events, they are all the same, start to finish. But it is told with different characters and setting. Script wise still almost as cliched as the first game, but presented in a immensely improved way. As cliched as it may be, it doesn't bother the player as much as the 2007 game did.
    Gameplay and AI are improved, but some of the flaws of the first game still there, only less noticeables. The enemies still pop out of nowhere on predictable and badly thought places, as dead ends and they still have some odd traits, as the ability of gluing grenades to your feet, but it is less bothersome this time.
    The graphics and art direction are very good. Even to this date (2018) it still feels almost as pretty as it did the first time I played, back in 2010.
    Overall, Uncharted 2 is a good game, but still has some flaws and plot wise it is just the same story as in Uncharted which was extremely lazy on the developers.

    This game is a legend among the PS3 exclusives. Of course, I had to try it out and find out what's the praise about. So, I've bought the game (for ps4) two years ago. At one point I almost wanted to quit but I pushed myself and beat the game. I can't say I've had a bad time playing it, nor a good time either though. I liked the protagonists but the gameplay…not that much.

I liked the protagonists but the gameplay…not that much.
    But then I got brainwashed by others' opinions and started to consider U2 as an excellent game. I've gotten the other 3 instalments a year later and enjoyed them except for Deception. So I thought it would be a great idea to replay Among Thieves.
    And what happened is that I bored myself to uninstalling the game after an hour and a half in.
    Nonsense and clichés just constantly emanate from the story it made me unable to continue. Everything falls off or explodes right after you escape it. Drake survives so much damage to his body like it's nothing. The antagonists are caricatures, a fake "Russian" psycho and an annoying Bri'ish succer. It's laughable.
    The gunplay is unsatisfying, the guns sound very weird. The climbing is 100 times less entertaining than it is in Prince of Persia.
    I think a lot of the fanboys got this together with their PS3s and it was their only game for a long time. A game better than no game, right? The thing I don't get is why so many people praise Amy Hennig, the writer, to heavens for her work on the story. It's a simple story with highly distinguishable good and evil, it's almost like a tale. The game takes itself very seriously, yet some characters are almost cartoonish.
    Uncharted 2 is lucky that it is polished. The fanboys are lucky they did not have to grow up with Angel of Darkness.    … Expand

    What is the appeal? I just see a bunch of cliché stereotypes quipping for a MacGuffin. Oh and the gameplay is mediocre. All you do in this game is climb ledges then shoot with pea shooters against bullet sponges. But the graphics are nice. Enjoy that because you know that's all that secretly matters. Well at least there is much excitement to be had anyway in certain set pieces.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Uncharted 2: Among the Thief’s, is not a bad game. However people hold it to such a high standard that makes it seem like it’s a ‘god tier’ game. I believe the beginning of the game sets up an amazing story and gameplay. Starting drake as wounded and desperately trying to escape a wreaked train. Then presenting the previous events leading to this climax. However, once the player gets back to this moment after rend-acting the previous events, not only does the narrative ‘drag its feet’ but so does the game play. Throwing enemies that are difficult in the sense that they ‘take a lot of damage and can throw a lot of damage’, this infuriated my overall experience with this title. Which is unfortunate because the first half of the game is just magnificent but the ‘stretched out’ last half of this experience really put the game down for me due to it making me more focused on the negatives of this game than it’s amazing positives… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Overall great game, BUT:
    -A lot of REALLY annoying bugs like the one on the towers where you need to go across a wooden plank. There are two snipers, if you don't kill both immediately then one of them despawns and you can't proceed. You'll be forced to restart the mission.
    -Shooting feels slow, roll and cover always goes in conflict when you try to rush a little, and in some cases you NEED to play like that, otherwise you get killed.
    -In general the game feels like it's too scripted and some areas are exaggerated as hell, like the run on the train or the fight against many armored enemies.

    Game shines in many things and it's great considering it as a game from 2009, but my experience with it was a pain in the ass most of the time.    … Expand

    Graphically stunning, Uncharted 2: Among Thieves is, first of all, an interactive adventure, one that feels like a movie and even has a storyline of a movie. Most gameplay situations have been tailored in order to stun the player with originality and identification, and the end result is absolutely amazing.

    Among Thieves is all about constant movement. And even movement on top of movement. It grabbed me from the beginning and didn't let go for twelve hours. Once I finished, all I could think about was playing it again. More than a defining game for the PS3, Uncharted 2 is a defining game of this console generation.
