Now I know why everyone was saying "holy shit", I just got to
, and the only thing I can say was holy shit. I've never seen graphics like that, so colorful, bright and alive. Naughty Dog knew it too because they just let you stroll through to take in the sights and interact with the people. Unbelievable. This whole game is just in another league.
About glitches, I did have one where I fell into the floor and got stuck so I had to start the checkpoint again. Other than that it's been pretty smooth so far.
the part where you're walking through the town in the mountains with Tenzin

totally disagree. It's part of what made Uncharted. It's would get boring by the end of the game if that weren't in there. That was the moment and sealed Uncharted 1 as bad ass for me.aeolist said:

Just beat it on Hard first time through. What a game, definitely GOTY material. The last gun battle before the end was a great end to the game.

Agreed. This aspect in both of the games made them better for me. Added some diversity and color to an already

Is hand-to-hand combat any more difficult on Hard or Crushing? I wish the melee was more timing based, particularly when using the Triangle button to dodge. Currently when they're about to punch me I just tap away at the tri-button.

If anyone here has HD capture equipment, they REALLY, REALLY need to capture chapter 16, "Where am I" and chapter 20 "Convoy." The graphics in those chapters simply deserve better than offscreen camera shots...

Probably getting my copy sometime next week, can't wait 
Actually I just got past them byalr1ghtstart said:
jumping up and down from the ledges over and over while the other dude shot at them. Good thing it was just a timed event too.
Then a WHOA moment and then fighting the yetis again with different skins and crossbows. Died another 10 times and turned the PS3 off, it isn't worth this.

Anyone see the scene where
towards the end of the game when you and Flynn are sent to sort out the bridge for Lazarevic, if you try and punch Harry, he'll dodge, and knock you to the ground, if you try it again, he'll do the same, but this time shot and kill you while you're on the floor screaming "You son of a bitch!"
Thought it was pretty cool. I wanted to punch him for calling Sully a "Tired old sack of shit" And for backstabbing Drake of course.

Hey Arne, when you guys get back to work, do me a favor (lulz) and pitch this PSN idea
Unfastened: Sully's Fortune
Secret of the Spinner
And see my idea for the cereal tie-in would fly.

Two questions. First of all do you know if I'm going to be able to unlock crushing if I use cheats on hard? I know I'm not going to get trophy, but I might get it when I beat crushing. And also does anyone know what is up with that stupid amazon preorder map? Does it really have only 6 treasures or is it tied to the save or something...

I'm fairly certain that there are area's in Uncharted 2 that will punish you for not using stealth by flooding the level with enemies...
Also...doesn't MGS reward you if you manage to pull of stealth by taking down every enemy in a level...by not setting off alarms and flooding the level with enemies?

Really wish my blackberry could read the spoiler tags because I just ruined it for myself in a couple of the above posts.
Damn it =(

If there is one complaint I have about the game, its the online. I was just playing with TTP and we got to round 8 in a co-op arena... we both had about 100,000 points, and we got a connection error. It had some truly epic moments, near death experiences and amazing coordination, and what do we get for all that?
A connection error and zero reward. Frustrating as fuck.

Well, since they have largely swooped over Drake's "origin" (bad choice of words) I would love to see how he met Sully and MAybe play a bit as Sully. It's obvious that Victor is/was a father figure to Nathan, so that would be cool. I was always really hoping for some kind of DLC that would let you play Sully's parts of UC1 or 2jett said:

I was so worried that they were going to kill off Sully while they were in Borneo. So glad that didn't happen.

I honestly never thought that would happen, not afterbrandonh83 said:
he survived the first game. I didn't even know he would be in the game for a long time, so I really liked how they handled him appearing but not being central to the story. His little speech, 'I'm not doing this shit again, I'm going somewhere warm' was perfect

I know, what is it with people and their total fear of having something in Uncharted that might not be realistic? The thing I thought when I got to the fast zombie like creatures in Uncharted was, "Wow finally enemies with speed and agility! Bring it on!" It woke me up, and added something totally different to the game.

personally, I wouldn't quite go that far yet. I'm going to see how it holds up over time before I say anything too crazy. :lolZophar said:

Some people here are getting the wrong idea about what I said.
I'm not against the nonhuman enemies because they're unrealistic. That doesn't really bother me at all.
I disliked them in the first game because they were bullet sponges that did nothing but run straight at you and melee attack.
I don't like them in this one (even though they're technically human) because they're bullet sponges that can kill you with two punches, run faster than you, can't be dodged with a roll, and take forever to kill.
And now they're coming at me with grenades and crossbows, which makes it even worse. I dislike them because they've made the game frustrating and uninteresting, not because they're not believable.
