Video Game Review: “Uncharted 2: Among Thieves”

 

By: Sean Chin

Nathan Drake returns in this highly anticipated action/adventure Indiana Jones-esq epic of a story. Right from the get go, any fan of video games can tell that the graphics are just unbelievably realistic and the physics in combination with the smooth pace of  the game are just revolutionary and has set the bar for future games to be.

“Uncharted 2 is one of the best single player experiences I have ever played” states X-Play’s Adam Sessler. And I must concur. The game is built so that you are never doing the same thing over and over. But instead it pushes the gamer from one extreme environment to the next in a manner that is just right. Speaking of which, beating Chapter 1 of the game was already one of the best experiences I have ever had…and that was just the tip of the iceberg.

However, this game also boasts an incredibly in depth and fine tuned online multiplayer and co-op missions’ mode which is exceptionally well made.  

It won “Game of Show” from the Game Critics Awards 2009, “Best of Show” from E3 2009, and “Best Multiplayer for PS3” from IGN.com 

I highly recommend that you pick this game up if you own a PS3! 

The experience and story are very satisfying and will quench the thirst of any thrill seeking gamer.  

Cheers
