User Rating: 7.5 | Uncharted 2: Among Thieves PS3
Among Thieves is quite good. The graphics are one of the greatest graphics I have ever seen, I can still say they are the best to date. The story is brilliant as well. But the graphics and story aren't the most important thing in the game. This game is bottom line All flash, no substance... I just wish the gameplay made up for the story. Everything was smooth but the gun selection wasn't exactly my favorite. And there is very little gameplay, you mostly watch the whole game (which I don't mine because I do love the graphics) and it kinda felt like I was just playing cinematic scenes. Now lets talk about the graphics.... Lets just say they are down right beautiful. That and the story is what led me on through the bland and boring gameplay. The snow particles are just phenomenal. Now lets go to the story. Nathan Drake and his companions are on the hunt for the Marco Polo treasure (which is one of my favorite kinds of history) and are trying to beat these Russians to the punch. Its very weird when Sully disappears like right in the middle of a mission and you never see him for the rest of the game. Other than that the story is very inthrolling. The gameplay is the anchor that brings the game down. It is boring and very repetitive. The controls are fine though. Drake is funnier than ever, he has his classic humor. And the game would take you about 5 hours. I didn't bother with online because I got the game of the year edition and it is going to take around 4-5 hours to get all the updates and downloading. And the PSN has been down for almost 2 weeks. Well if you want to continue the Uncharted series play this game... but I wasn't to fond of it....
