Don't judge a book by it's cover... Or back cover in this case ;)

Bleh. Elena was pretty cliche and cultureless. Newbie looks more interesting to me.
Don't get me wrong, I'd stick my virtual-peen in Elena too, but c'mon.

More like "too much color up in this bitch, where is my fucking subdued color palette!"

She's not very unreal looking though. She's hot. Not many chicks have her bod, but she doens't look unnatural. Usually the unnatural looks has boobs soooo big the character looks like they would fall over in real life.

Nice, arne.

Expect people to not believe these shots until you have gameplay videos out.

I know I know. I still get worked up over it. *massive aneurysm*

Hey, you could take it as a compliment. You guys have achieved a level of image quality that is hard to believe on a console. Shit looks damn good. Is there v-sync this time around?

Save yourself the aneurysm, post some vids now. Just 'cause, you know, we wouldn't want you to feel sick or anything. It's for your own good. Yes. Your own good.

So arne, there was hint of co-op/multiplayer in that IGN interview....care to comment? :D

Where? I just watched it.
heads up spoiler freaks, that vid told me stuff about the story I didn't know so far, and a slightly big one imo.

No moreso than Drake himself. The magic (for both) was in the excellent VO work and facial animations (and to a lesser extent, dialog). Phenomenal videogame characters, but both are generic/cliched compared to the treatments characters get in film.
 
I just watched that Gametrailers interview

Bruce Straley sounds brilliant. Uncharted is in great hands.

Chloe looks great, I hope Elena never comes back!
 
I can't wait to play this title, but I may have to avoid threads regarding this game.
Since this game is an SP title that is completely story driven like a blockbuster movie any character or plot info could potentially spoil a part of the experience.

I was cool with all the Killzone 2 spoilers, because I know MP is where my time will go and the SP campaign was icing on the cake. I do not want to see the level of spoilers released for Killzone 2 occur with Uncharted 2.

If I start to see spoilers closer to release I will have to avoid the threads and that kind of sucks...

The characters in many ways seem to be modeled after the actors of actresses that play them, and Chloe is no different

IGN: I lied; I have one more question. Now that you're introducing a second character in Chloe, who's almost on par with Nate, have you guys thought at all about a multiplayer component? I don't know for this game, and I'm sure you can't talk about it if you have, but is that something you guys have talked about for future stuff?

Evan Wells: You know, it's really exciting how co-op and multiplayer are becoming exciting features for gamers. You're seeing a lot of great games that are taking advantage of that -- Left 4 Dead was a fantastic game, Gears co-op is awesome, Resident Evil 5's got a great co-op mode. It really does seem like it would fit the Uncharted universe well. It's something that we haven't concentrated on right now; we're really concentrating on bringing that single-player experience to the forefront and delivering the best single-player experience that is out there. At Naughty Dog, we're very excited about online games and multiplayer games, and it's something that we certainly will be looking at in the future.

IGN: Now, you said to everybody that it's a bit longer. Are you willing to tell me how much longer?

Evan Wells: I can't tell you exactly how much longer--

IGN: Damn you, Evan.

Evan Wells: The game's not finished is one thing. It's going to be a much richer experience. You're going to get a lot more value out of your gaming dollar with Uncharted 2.

Wow, how the hell did I miss this thread. Screens looks absolutely insane. Man, I can't wait until I can go on another crazy adventure with Drake again. The first one was a blast. Looks like it have COOP, and although that is a popular feature amongst the gaming enthusiasts, I pray that it doesn't break the game and take away from the total hi fidelity the first one brought to the table. Anyhow, I am still excited no matter what. Naughty Dog is a developer I have total faith in.

Yeah, did I read somewhere that the facial anims were mocap'd from the voice actors as well? And don't get me wrong, after Uncharted 1, I trust Naughty Dog as much as any dev out there to do female characters fairly and honestly. My initial reaction though was that they may be bowing to pressure to enhance bust size and sexay. Hope not... :)
 
This would be a good opportunity to try coop puzzles. That isnt done very often.

I would say "its never been done" but Im not exactly sure of that.

All I want from the this game is the same gunplay but similar platforming and puzzles as we saw in tombraider underworld. They pretty much nailed it in that game. The climbing was linear of course but it still felt organic. I never much liked the platforming in Uncharted. Always felt like these tombs were made with climbing in mind. It was weird.

Just like that one area in tombraider where the tomb was made to be tackled by someone with a motorcycle.

Seriously wtf was that?

Facial animations in U1 were keyframed, meaning done by hand. Best ever in a game yet.

ah, watched the video, didn't read that. I second comment seemed to be more about legnth, but yeah the first one seems like a complete tell. Freaking sweet. Looks like Uncharted will reset the graphics bar before 09 is even over.

I doubt they did that. If that were the reason then they would've given her a skimpy outfit.

GTFO!

Not every game has to have multiplayer.

Since Uncharted is so story driven I doubt they would accept the handcuffs of creating a completely co-op SP experience. I could see them including some type of co-op mode or perhaps a side quest...

Honestly I just want them to concentrate on providing the best story based SP experience.
If we get any additional modes it's just icing on the cake.

Gears coop and multiplayer isnt exactly mindblowing. Id prefer they go another route and do it similar to RE5. Having to help eachother through obstacles, solving puzzles together etc etc. Be smart about it.

I hope they dont just add another character in and have her just follow around Nate everywhere he goes just to force in coop.

OMG, this looks amazing. This fall cannot come soon enough. It's hard to believe it will have been 2 years since the last Uncharted came out.....
 
Screen shots look amazing! The game seems to have a very red theme going on.

I'm not sure why everyone was attached to Elena. It seemed she always just irritated Drake anyway.
 
Why wouldn't this be real time? I mean, it looks really good, but, to me at least, KZ2 surpasses it by a noticeable margin and we know that is in realtime.

I don't know, both were stylized yes, similar to an Indiana Jones b-movie/not taken wholly seriously type, but the "hungry young reporter with good looks who falls in love with the story she should be reporting" just kinda irked me.

I didn't mind Drake. Thought he was funny. Let's get a chubby girl in there and have Drake make fun of her rolls and eventually find them endearing. Or something. :lol

Really?

I find Uncharted 2 better looking than Killzone 2.

Yeah, there's no debate for me at all. (This isn't to say that couldn't change by the end of Uncharted's development- I just don't think the two compare at the moment.)

Pray for v-sync enabled...
 
It depends on the animation for me on whether it looks better than KZ2. In stills, it looks a lot better than Killzone 2. But we know the blurring, animation, post-processing, lighting etc. that aren't visible in screens is what makes KZ2

There are some rough patches but I know they were changing textures and settings up until the last moment with Uncharted 1

I hope Drake is still suave, a little clumsy and still funny. The direction they are taking his character has me a little worried, I guess we'll see soon
