I've got a 52" 1080p Bravia I'm gonna be playing my copy on tonight and it is set up for 1:1 pixel mapping. I'll let you guys know if I see anything.

Yeah I really like it. I have a hard time using the arc throw because the camera aims at the top of the arc instead of where the grenade will actually land. This has been extremely frustrating for me, and it's something that all games do for some reason.

Game is so pretty, my shitty iPhone camera doesn't do it justice:

Yeah I went back to playing Drake's Fortune last night after playing the beta for a very long time and forgot how shitty the grenade throwing was. It drove me nuts.McLovin said:

I LOVED that whole sequence. It was a great part and really paid service to the nature of the game....IMHO.

In U1 you could either aim using the throwing arc (which showed up when pressing L1 while having the grenades equipped) or throw blindly. What's new in U2 is that you can throw grenades while aiming with another weapon. In U1 grenades had to be seperately equipped (there was no dedicated grenade button), so you couldn't do that. Which is what you meant, I guess.
autobzooty said:
That's why you activate Sixaxis aiming. Then you can adjust the throwing arc without moving the camera.

I know in the single player it is triangle... as for the multi, I dont know if that works BUT if you roll it cancels the grenade (I think).

Wow is this game an improvement on the original or what. The dialogs are way better than before and the animation is out of this world, very believable. This is like the best Hollywood action-adventure movie that Hollywood can't seem to make. And it has fantastic gameplay as well! I doubt multiple playthroughs will be worth it, but as it is, the experience is quite something.

Really enjoyed it so far, but thesection was pretty horrible. Visually it was tight, but I found it tedious.ice templewere all fantastic, definitely my favourite bits. Tomorrow i'm hoping to get back into the MP well proper.The train and tank/truck set pieces
I agree that section dragged on for entirely too long and the amount of times I died when jumping to the wrong place is staggering. Which brings me to my biggest gripe of the game: Not knowing where to go/jump. Too many times I died when jumping to the wrong spot. Also the platforming is extremely limited to where you are supposed to go. There are TONS of window sills that I would have liked to traverse but couldn't. Good thing that wont be an issue on additional playthroughs
DOES ANYONE ELSE HAVE THIS PROBLEM
I paused the game during the sequence where you're
during the slow motion part where Drake jumps... and had to leave it there for a few hours by accident. So I shut down the PS3 by pressing the button on the console nad everything is fine.
Except now when I start the single player again, the entire game is stuck running at slow motion speed It plays fine for cutscenes (I've gotten to the
section), and multiplayer runs FINE.
NOTHING I've tried has fixed the problem, restarting, taking the disk out, deleting the game data. Absolutely nothing, which means I might have to restart the game since it's probably a glitch taht's being carried over with my save.
Stupidest glitch ever.

I think in this respect inFAMOUS kinda spoilt me. Now I just expect EVERYTHING which looks remotely climbable to be, well, climbable. :lol

No kidding, UC2 also puts the
the building crumbling scene from KZ2 to shame. In a few spots
In case anyone wondering what the new playlists are:
Standard deathmatch only
Elimination matches only
Objectives playlist
Ranked matches (deathmatch and objectives)
All competitve modes (basically ranked playlist without the separate rank) - I think this is new
Co-op Objective
Cop-op Arena

I'm nearing completion and the game is amazing. Naughty Dog really outdid themselves; the sequel is leagues better than the original.

any help?
Tried this on the main menu... nothing.
Have you checked the store to see if Slo-Motion is enabled? There's a glitch that allows you to enable stuff before you meet the requirements to buy it. I don't know how I did it, but I was able to enable the "Pump" taunt before actually buying it. Maybe Slo-Motion got turned on in your save by accident.Zen said:
I've heard booting into Drake's Fortunes, loading a save, saving, and then quitting to launch Among Thieves has worked for some people.NinjaFusion said:

Uncharted 2 does look absolutely amazing. I think on the side of character models, textures<<<<< and draw distances it blows everything else out of the water. But c'mon guys, we cant discredit killzone 2. I think its either on or still close to the graphical quality of uncharted 2. Just sayin...I love both equally. Althought I haven't finsihed uncharted 2 yet, I'm on the train level.

NO NO NO dude... finish the game, and then immediately start a new one. Seriously, you cant stop now... only 3 more chapters!!
What's the difference between ranked and non-ranked playlists? The game says 'ranked matches are skill-tracked', does that mean only those matches' stats get uploaded to ND's site? If so, I've played several matches in non-ranked deathmatch-only playlist and noticed that their stats were uploaded to my profile in ND.com. Can someone explain this, please?

I am amazed at this game, it takes the core gameplay of the first game and ramps everything up x 20. The level design is much improved making each encounter just different enough from the next, also its so nich to have areas with so many oppertunities to go vertical or stealth kill.
The train sequence I feel is the single greatest action sequence in the history of video games. It has everything all rolled up into one epic setpiece.
This will be a legendary part 2, like Mega Man 2, Sonic 2, GoW2, RE2. It takes everything we loved about the original and perfects it.

The cinematics and production value of this game is off the chain. It's just incredible!!!
Ok, not sure if this counts as a bug but this just happened to me. I tried playing online for the 1st time since the demo a couple of minutes ago and tried deathmatch elimination via matchmaking. After finding people, the game kept looping those pictures and tips you see before a match begins. After 2 mins of waiting I decided to quit via in-game xmb. This made my PS3 restart.
Upon restarting, I could not sign into the PSN. I kept getting DNS errors (my PCs on the network had no internet problems btw). So after several failed attempts I tried testing my network connection under Network and it succeeded in connecting to the PSN. Now when I boot up U2 and go back into mp, the Elimination postcard from the playlist is gone (selectable but no picture). Restarting the game didn't fix and I'm not sure if restarting or shutting down my ps3 will.

Restarting the game didn't fix and I'm not sure if restarting or shutting down my ps3 will.
So after playing the SP for 3 hours and 15 minutes, I'm apparently 45% through the game. Does the second half stretch out longer, because otherwise I'm going to be done well before the 12 or so hours the reviews mention.
I'm at chapter 13 so far before it froze randomly when I picked up a weapon, so I decided that was a sign to call quits for the night.
I did play a bit of the multiplayer after though. I played the beta fairly often, so I knew my way around the maps. It felts really strange playing on the new maps, not having a clue what the layout was.
