    The great, well-written story, fluid gameplay (some of it has aged tho), and good graphics makes this a must buy for PlayStation users. Naughty Dog really put in the work and it shows here.

    This was the first game of the uncharted series that I played, and I've been a fan ever since. So my 10 rating will be a little on bias side.

    It's really good adventure like a Indiana Jones movie! Gameplay is sample but its not a problem. Maybe its little bit too short.

    Uncharted 2 took on the foundation of Uncharted 1 and improved it in every way.

    This game revolutionized cinematic gameplay. The set peices were jaw dropping and still are! I went through the Nathan Drake collection in 2019 and I can say that Uncharted2 stands the test of time.. the gameplay is fun. The story is fun. It's just such a good time with a loveable and memorable cast of characyers.

    +. Gameplay and story is amazing. Great graphics. The sound is full. No major glitches
    -. Some of the puzzles are boring. The AI is pretty dumb at times

    Una gran secuela para uno de los mejores juegos de la séptima generación de videojuegos, supera en todos su predecesor pero sigue con el fallo en la historia.

    First Uncharted game was great, Uncharted 2 is a masterpiece. Gameplay's quite better at overall; enemy AI's has improved and well-known action sequences added for the first time to the series. With its better written story and new characters, Uncharted 2 is one of the best games ever made.

    A Great Follow Up to Drakes Fortune also love its adds to Nathans Quest in the Vein of Indiana Jones And The Temple of Doom exploring the Trail of Marco Polo so It does take some historical license but that's ok more streamlining mechanics for platforming Puzzles once again i have use Gameplay walkthroughs but that's okay 1010

    Despite being 10 hours long, you could probably sit through this game in its entirety and never lose focus. This is perhaps the most well-paced video game of all time. There is nothing that I have played that compares to it in that regard. The story is well-told, no combat scene feels similar to the ones before it, and the characters have become downright iconic at this point.

    Mit der Uncharted Serie hat Crash Bandicoot Erfinder Naughty Dog das Abenteuer Spiel in der Tradition eines Tomb Raider neu aufgegriffen und erfolgreich in die Next-Gen übersetzt.

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

    Big improvement from the first game. It feels like a good action movie. Would rate higher except I died too many times just because I did something more creative than the game wanted me to. It was like playing with my mom over my shoulder. And the last boss SUCKED.

    Esse título mostra pra toda indústria o quão longe um jogo eletrônico pode chegar! Uma obra prima.

    Novamente a história não é nada demais, mas a maneira como é contada faz toda a diferença, aliado ao gameplay quase perfeito, esse jogo representa o epítome de um jogo eletrônico de ação. Palmas à Naughty Dog, o melhor jogo da franquia no PS3.

    The graphics, i don't know how but they still hold up to this day, imagine this in 2009

    The story is amazing with some astoundingly memorable characters and an excellent script which makes them feel alive (the cast did an amazing job)

    The pacing is just perfection

    Only flaw is the hand to hand combat is a bit slow and climbing is outdated but these are minor issues compared to what the game gets right

    10/10 masterpiece, best uncharted game and you HAVE to play this and you will not regret it    … Expand

    Spread across twenty-six chapters is a story as playful and worthwhile as the gameplay.

    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.
