Why? If there is one thing this game doesn't need any more of, it's unbridled enthusiasm. Try reading some criticism of it from time to time, it might actually get you thinking about what an average game it is.thuway said:

So would you say UC3 retail version has the feel of 60 fps?

Does anyone know if we're going to get high-quality version captures of the preview code? I was showing my buddy the cargo plane sequence from cvg's youtube and it was so dark and had weird diagonal lines across certain areas.
I'd love to get a high-quality capture of any of the preview videos in this thread to play on my PS3...

just wanted to quickly pop in and say; while I'm not going to read this thread as I'm on retail SP blackout, I'm excited for this game and I cannot wait to play it!!!!

I highly doubt the game will get better scores than U2

If you're interested, this weeks bonus round has some people from Naughty Dog to talk about the game. Should be good.

Uncharted 2 was great but certainly not without flaws, particularly in the story, final boss, and so forth. Lazarevic was a terrible villain, Flynn was a total waste, the story had some serious ADD, etc. So for me there's a few things that Uncharted 3 can potentially have over the second one.
So even if it doesn't get the reviews that Uncharted 2 did, IMO it can definitely be a better game regardless. Marlowe looks to be a much better and far more memorable villain than the meat head in the second game.

I don't know what you guys think of UC2's length, but I totally could've finished that in 1 day. I forced myself to stop. But I ended up beating it the second day anyway.Pranay_ said:
I imagine it'll be the same with 3. I'll probably have to force myself to stop if I don't want to beat it in one day.

It basically can't.
With every sequel, the wow factor is diminished (even if they succeed in topping their previous efforts), and UC2 got such high scores that there's nowhere to go but down.
Of course that doesn't mean it can't be a better game than UC2.

Yeah, the MP could play a role, but it seems like it's already pretty divisive. I don't see it having a uniformly positive effect. Although I guess a lot of games press may rate based on how fully featured it is and not necessarily how much they like it or how well balanced it is.

Wha wha whaaaaaat. Didnt know they improved the AI for this game. That was one of my very few complaints for U2. Sounds like they completely reworked the system too. Awesome
Same for Johnny Minkley from Eurogamer.

I'm just wondering what the embargo date would be.

I replayed UC1 earlier this year now I'm going through UC2. Playing through them back to back really shows just how much an improvement UC2 was. Everything was much better paced which made the game so much better. I kinda hated a lot of the firefights in Uc1. They were too frequent and often lasted way too long.
Definitely. Also add in a generous checkpoint system and a difficulty level of Normal (assuming that he follows other reviewers) and you can beat it in a day no sweat.jett said:
Also, the cover was kind of wonky in UC1. They didn't have the slide to cover move yet and that made it a bit of a chore. However, UC1 was definitely less frustrating than UC2 on Crushing.eternaLightness said:

This is OPM here
. Last time we found out about the 21 out of 20, and a couple of 10 out of 10, and ludicrous scores far before the embargo. So we'll see... There is stiff competition this year, not to mention a game that is stitched into the hearts of gamers as the "GOTG".Skyward Sword, or Deus Ex?thuway said:This is OPM here
I'm slightly worried about the length of SP in U3 because I won't be spending more than an hour or two in multiplayer. Give me 10 hours on Hard and I'll be happy.
Then again, I'm not really a length complainer (Vanquish and Child of Eden, for example, are perfect in length whereas some longer games, Red Dead Redemption, are completely ruined by their length).
I'm replaying to get in the spirit. On Chapter 17 or so of U2. Replaying U1 made me realize that an Uncharted game is one of those things where the sum is better than the parts. It controls terribly, the shooting sucks, the platforming is wonky, the AI is asinine, and firefights are for the most part simply not that fun. (Note: I think a lot of this was fixed in U2.) But the whole scope, the sense of adventure, the environments, the music, the rapport between Nate, Elena, and Sully, all add up to make for a great experience.

Skyward Sword won't be that awesome. I love Ocarina of Time, but nothing I've seen from Skyward Sword has me hyped.
Deus Ex review's all point to a game that is great, but with flaws.
We'll see though. This year we might not have a game as amazing as Uncharted 2, Mario Galaxy, Mass Effect 2, or a Red Dead.

If the set pieces are more amazing than the ones in UC2 then I think we'll see a lot of perfect 10 scores. The Gears of War received fantastic scores and it had broken, shitty multiplayer for years.
