GOTY? Really awesome.

Man, I kinda feel bad for Insomniac. They made an awesome game and get overshadowed by the buzzsaw that is UC2.

The same can be said for Batman AA and Assassin's Creed 2! Thing is, as good as those games were, Uncharted 2 was better than both of them and deserved every award it got!!!! 10 of them to be exact! Awesome show for the Naughty Gods! Arne is probably getting so drunk right now! Let the Dogs know that the NeoGAF GOTY is still the most prestigious award, lol!!!

Not as deep as he thinks
Okay seriously, what is going on? Is it PSN or just me...because every time I've played a Co-Op Arena match tonight, either it says "Connection Error" or another player disconnects. This happens when a player is idle in the match and doesn't move for like half of the match before it gives the connection error message. Seriously, what is up? Am I the only one experiencing this problem today? It's annoying because we're in round 7 of Survival or Gold Rush mode and all of a sudden the player is idle and we get a connection error like midway through the round. :| Out of like the five matches of survival/gold rush that I've played, I have only managed to successfully complete one without a connection error. :\
It might be the new idle kick they added in 1.05. It kicks in after ~2 - 3 minutes of inactivity. In comp it migrates the host if he's kicked, but in co-op its auto connection error for everybody if anybody is dropped or kicked.Rewrite said:
No, I think it kicks you from the mm pool by dropping you mid game and sending you back to the lobby. I've played a couple of games were 2 - 3 minutes in people start dropping like flies. First time it happened, 3 people just dropped and the host was migrated. The second time, I noticed a couple of people on the other team were AFK, 2 - 3 minutes later they both got dropped at the same time.Rewrite said:.................................
I thought that the kicking option would happen if that idle person was in the matchmaking pool.

In co-op objective, the difficulty level is only as high as the lowest one set by anyone in your team. You can be set to Crushing, but if one of your mates is at Easy, then everyone's playing in Easy.
On other news, glad to be back to the world of U2!
Got my first taste of 1.05 last night; the balance changes + not playing for about a week really kicked my behind for a while.
Early impressions:
Minus
It's been said a lot, but I'll echo the feeling: shoulder auto switching is awkward, and tends to be backfire in the most inconvenient moments.
Plus
NDI, I <3 you, you went ahead and gave Navarro his proper voice!.
Goodbye Sark "See you laaaaater!", hello "Gracias, I'll take that!".
If they add some Drake's Fortune music for the MP lobby next week, I just might lose it. :0

How can they possibly beat this with Uncharted 3

As great as UC2 was, it's not a perfect nor unbeatable product. They'll do it.

Super LTTP, I know but I finally got around to playing the first Uncharted and just beat it. Holy shit, what an awesome game! Really short though.
The part with the
really fucking threw me off :lol I did not expect it and I
I just wish it had more platforming and climbing segments since I really, really enjoyed those.
About to dive in to Uncharted 2. How does that compare to the first in terms of climbing and platforming and etc.?
The part with the
zombie spaniards
jumped like a little bitch. I don't like scary parts in games, :lol

Just sat down and replayed Urban Warfare and Desperate Times, two amazing chapters. I love that part where
except for a clock on the wall that keeps ticking. Awesome subtle detail.
I'll never get tired of the single player in this game.
Drake and Chloe jumps through the window of the collapsing hotel, ends up in another building and finally there's a moment of silence...

Wait, so the skins are available now? 0_0
Anyway, tried some Plunder last night, and I have to say I don't see this whole "Waaah people don't go for the treasure" complaint at all. It's MUCH harder with the lower health, you really have to work together (conversing via headsets helps A LOT), but it's by no means bad. I got some people even my own teammates citing "The Sniper Rifles are for Pussies" But I think they're pretty essential in Plunder to help give your teammates some cover since they can't survive long if they're ambushed by three guys.

Not yet; Navarro alone had been available as a Comic Con giveaway.
He didn't have unique lines, though; he shared his voice with one of Lazarevic's soldiers.
Since 1.05, he's finally received his proper voice as we remember him from U1.
If there were any doubts, I think it's pretty clear now that 1.05 includes next week's DLC in that 94mb, to ensure that all U2 players can display it.

Gotta take the opportunity to toss a raw idea to the devs.
Remember the
vehicles section where you have to jump from truck to truck? That was cool and all, but how about spicing things up a bit by actually letting you drive some of those vehicles from time to time?
What if you add enemies on bikes and the ability to jump on those, knock off the driver and actually drive them yourself in order to reach an otherwise unreachable moving object (like a train)?

Basically, add a bit of Pursuit Force to it but covered with ND awesomeness.

oh man what i would give for new pursuit force on current gen consoles.
Good stuff.
I don't know if you liked the first Uncharted, but I can personally guarantee you that it won't be a Jak & Daxter to Jak II kind of deal. Have some funs.
Any GAF games tonight? I was thinking about renting MAG, but fuck it, I'll probably just play some Uncharted 2 multi instead. It's about time I bring the pain to Uncharted GAF.

So uh, I guess the game must be selling at a decent clip, last week I believe we heard it had just broken the 3 million barrier right? Well the latest post on the playstation blog about Co-president Christophe Balestra says this:
