That's good news.
Arne, what's the deal with New Game +? If I finish my first game on Hard, will I be able to start a freshie on Survivor and keep my stuff from the first playthrough or will I only be able to start Hard+?
about halfway mark.
i'm pretty sure unless someone is wearing body armor (police/military) the damage taken is about the same. I don't remember feeling a difference at all.
also: all enemies take same amount of damage on all difficulty modes, so Survivor mode will be the same.
Does it make me a cynical asshole when I gravitate towards the outlying review over the mass approval ? Seeing a sea of 10/10 , 5/5 scores and all the praise just makes me wonder if anyone was playing it critically enough.
On the flipside , the outlier is polygon, I website that gave simcity a nearly perfect review and score despite not really being able to properly play it. Does one foible discount the whole website ? no, not by a long shot.
I just, I read the few knocks against the game and it reminds me of my experience playing the first uncharted - I game I loved for it's cinematic world and characters but not so much for it's gameplay which became far too reliant on shooting dudes when it could easily have gone a more exploration heavy route. It sounds as though The Last of Us may fall prey to the same issues and well, if you can get past them - AWESOME GAME FUR SHURE DOOD but if you happen to be sick of zombies, apocalyptic settings and shooting things perhaps it will do much less ?

Lucky asshole.
I saw some one shots in Sesslers review (which was great)
Thank you for the update. This does a lot to relieve me.

I'm replaying Uncharted 2. One of the best games I've ever played, ever.

U2 freezes my PS3 every time I play at the same part near the end of the game. A reboot and continue campaign fixes it but don't freak out if it happens to you.
Just took down one of them with 2 shots to the chest on hard on the demo, too.
Could you maybe clarify what survival mode is all about? What makes it stand out?
An how do you unlock it? I assume by beating hard mode? Or is there some konami code you could put to unlock it.

Play Uncharted 3 also.
Don't listen to the haters, I liked it just as much as 2, and some parts more.

Sounds good. I will rigorously test this theory to confirm.

Ah, goody. Not a lot of talk on the difficulty differences, but I'm so bored of difficulty settings where it's just "enemies have more health, you take more damage, have fun". Remixed encounters/items sounds more interesting. Like to get more info on Survivor mode myself.
Ok arne commented on that as well
Yeah and when they get close enough sometimes the recticle auto targets the head. Boom, chunky headshot Manhunt style.

Uncharted 2 killed my fat PS3. It was heartbreaking that I had to look at it for three months...but I'm sure you'll be fine.
You're not getting brofists for that.

Can we buy the cup?
lol. The only thing that I disliked was the final boss. That was it. Everything else was phenomenal.

They don't in Uncharted, why would they do it here?

Does anyone know if this will support 3D?
oh I remember this bug well, this happens late in the game after a long fight IIRC... I thought ND fixed it ? last time I played U2 it didn't freeze, was playing on a different, not-launch PS3 unit anyway.
As long as they don't have a helmet, enemies in the Uncharted games take one hit to the head to kill.
lmao

It still happens to me on my Slim PS3. But maybe it's because I'm still carrying those same games saves from way back when.

Hmm...disagree.
Syria was the weakest portion of the game.
Air Hanger/Cruise Ship/Desert were my highlights.
