Best PS3 Game

Uncharted 2: Among Thieves

E3 2009 Editors' Choice Winner for Best PS3 Game

PlayStation 3 owners have a lot to look forward to over the next year. The list of upcoming games exclusive to Sony's console is an impressive one, with MAG, Heavy Rain, and God of War III all putting up strong showings at E3 2009. But if there's one Sony title that stole our hearts more than any other, it's Uncharted 2: Among Thieves.

Uncharted 2 is one of the most impressive-looking games ever to grace the PS3.

The folks at Naughty Dog brought it all to E3 2009. For starters, they showcased a live demo during the Sony press conference that combined an impressive array of gameplay variety, stunning visuals, and mind-bending destruction. This demo gave us a sense of just how big an adventure Naughty Dog is crafting with Uncharted 2, taking the lush jungles of the first game and adding--among other things--wide-open cityscapes and firefights that actually take place within collapsing buildings.

Flash Player 9 is required to watch this video.

See this impressive PS3 game in motion.

And while the demo certainly showed how Naughty Dog is pushing the technology of the PlayStation 3 hardware, the new trailer it brought along to our live stage show reminded us that this studio is among the best at cinematic storytelling. The new trailer introduced a number of new faces and characters, brought back Elena to shed a little light on the gap between this game and the original, and offered just as much engaging dialogue and quality voice acting as we saw the first time around.

As if that weren't enough, Naughty Dog also had competitive and multiplayer co-op stations running at the Sony booth. Uncharted 2 has a lot to offer, and it seems Naughty Dog was more than happy to show it all.

They should have a game in which Indiana Jones, Lara Croft and Drake go on an adventure together. Wonder what will happen.

I just got a PS3 today, and it came with Drake's Fortune. Unfortunately, it's a refurbished one, and the power supply is a dud, so I have to wait a while to get another. Still, I've been waiting almost 4 years - I can wait a little longer, knowing the greatness that lies ahead. Also, an interesting thing: the first console game I ever remember playing was Crash Team Racing for PS1. One of the first games I got for PS2 (I got 4 at once for Christmas) was Jak and Daxter. Now, I'm getting a PS3 with Uncharted: Drake's Fortune. It's like Naughty Dog is the developer that single-handedly evolves my gaming career. No wonder I've always had a soft spot for them. This trailer makes me shiver, it's so good. Do want!

finished the first one over 6 times, still not sick of it, been waiting for this game. ive dabbled alot with others but nothing has peaked my interest as much as this game, (and i havn't even played it yet) i wouldn't care if the graphics were the same as the original and the gameplay was unchanged, however the company is know to overhaul there efforts and the second is set to be bigger, better and darn right Un-miss-able. Heres waiting 15/10/2009 preordered. Game on....

Damn. The only thing keeping me from buying this game, and saving my poor money was that the story didn't seem as good without a promise of more Drake/Elena conversations. (Weeps for the money as he pre-orders uncharted 2)

Oh hey, it's Claudia Black. Is it just me, or does her voice not really suit the character?

To those who don't own the first game: go buy it now! It' absolutely brilliant! One of the best games on PS3 (and PS3 has indeed great games) I started it over again just to be ready for when the second one comes out, which is shaping to be even better from the looks of it! It's totally a great movie experience and diverse gameplay!

Looks better then any action film of the past decade. This could be the next big story driven action title since MGS4. It may not top Kojima's opus, but it'll come damn close, and that makes it better then about 95% of games out there. Regardless of platform.

Looks like a interesting movie. Kind of looks like there's 10 seconds of gameplay against 2 hours of cutscenes.
