Why? One thread has people discussing the game they're playing and the other is just a general discussion. It'd be bad if it wasn't bigger than the official thread right now because it'd show there wasn't much interest in it.
Look Dante, I'm not seeing it except when I spin the camera round. It's not there. I'm playing it at 720p...what it was originally made to be played at, maybe people should change it to that. Because I've just been playing HS, and going to Uncharted it's godly. Very smooth, and I'd say "tear free"...or as close as you can get.dante786 said:

It would also be nice if people weren't so quick to attack promising games just because of system preference.
I mean tearing, out of the blue air has become a thing everyone (especially those never before used to be bothered by it) can't tolerate though they overlook the fact that tearing occurs in those games they them self are hyped about and play.
There's tearing in Uncharted, yes. But is it really to the extend where the game is utterly unplayable as these "usual I own/want a PS3 BUT suspects" claim? Not having a PS3 I'd like to see videos taken of the demo showing this constant tearing as I can only find those without.
Reminds me of the ol' "4xFSAA is mandatory! Aliasing makes a game unplayable" days in PS3 game related threads which stopped when it became apparent that the NEXT GEN eDRAM (wow PS2 GS) actually gets in the way of free AA if the dev doesn't want the HDR lighting truncated to 10FP (perhaps it's also possible to make a 1080p reference so it isn't one-sided).
What I'm trying to say is that the PS3 defenders would be less rabid had the PS3 attackers been less susceptible to double standards (and vague unsubstanciated claims like ie Uncharted has: low res textures, too many polygon edges, too floaty animations, flat textures, bad lighting, bad shadows... Yes these have all been spewed out in the Uncharted threads, not a stone has stayed unturned no matter how silly it has looked).

I think tearing recieved multiplatform ire once Saints Row dropped. I'm pretty ambivalent about framerates and shit, but I hate tearing. It's probably the most intrusive graphical glitch this gen, regardless of system preference.

The game has AF. To not have any distant texture blurring at all, you'd need something like 16XAF, but the blurring would occur much closer than that if there wasn't any AF.
Ebgames/Gamestop. Keep in mind, they also had Ratchet on sale early!deepbrown said:

There's no doubt about tearing being an annoyance, but IMHO it can be acceptable if it's pushed to the top/bottom of the screen and do not stretch over several frames.
That's why I'd prefer the tearing comments to be more elaborated and perhaps backed up video examples. And that the same person also complains about it in other games.

I am on 720p with disabled 1080i in the PS3 settings and I got absolutely no tearing.
Same here...why you'd want 1080i when your tv supports 720p and most games are made for 720p....I don't knowNervous Hamster said:
The 1080i for Uncharted was only ever to support those who ONLY have 1080i, and should have to suffer more tearing because of their foolish purchase
About the tearing, Dead Rising had horrible tearing in cut scenes and it' still in my Top 3 of this gen.
Maybe Sarkozy will make your mailman work harder and you will get it at the same time as I do
Raist said:Same here, preordered from vgp. Next Friday ? We still don't now if 11/15 is a real release date or not. But anyway, I'll probably get it around dec. 1st :lol

I just returned from Toys R Us and they had all these Uncharted "cases" in the display behind the counter. I asked the guy if Uncharted was for sale and he said it wasn't out yet. I asked what the "cases" were and he said they weren't for sale. I asked them if they were real retail copies and he said it didn't matter because they weren't for sale. After he said this, he stared at me like he wanted to defend his house against attack. Not sure I was putting out that vibe, but it was hilarious and nice to hear that he has been asked about Uncharted by others.

Yep, to me it also took 9 hours on hard.
Now playing on Crushing, a totally different experience. You're dead with 1/2/3/4 shots and your enemies need more shots to kill. They're EXTREMELY agressive, much more than hard. I use blind-fire a lot more because of approaching enemies. I had to play some fights 20 or 30 times again, because the extreme damage you take and because you're 100% for sure dead if you're outflanked.
I recommend playing the game on hard at first, and then restarting on Crushing. There's really a big difference between those two.
So, the game has enough replay value. You WANT to go back to this, for sure. And you want to unlock some great things.
Ebgames has that date on there website.Jtrizzy said:

No it isn't. And that's good because you will become mad if you will play it on this difficulty for the first time. It's better to know the game quite well and then start with it. Otherwise it turns from something difficult but nice into something frustrating.
BUt nevertheless: try crushing after you've completed it. Try how well you can handle Nathan in this hostile environment.
DAMN this game is great.

I always play the hardest difficulty on my first play through. I find it to be more rewarding and entertaining and not to mention it extends the life of the game.

That sounds so awesome. Of course, I will start on Normal or Hard Mode, but, being a person who loves challenge, Crushing sounds like gaming heaven. Thank god I don't get so mad with games that I actually start chucking controllers (especially $50 ones; talk about a waste of money).
Crushing is calling my name.Thats exactly how i felt, I didnt want it to end :lol .timnich said:
I wasnt even so interested in this game until the demo, i was afraid of the gunplay being weak. But damn, now im so addicted to the gameplay alone that I replayed the demo at least 10 different times, trying new shit each time. Day 1 for me.
People are really trying hard to dismiss this game. You have people saying Gears shooting is so much better, though this game adds more variety to it as well as something called responsive controls. Then people are talking about the guns being weak, guess the AK (we don't know which caliber it is 7.62 or 5.56) should be the golden gun with 1-shot 1-kill? Then there's random tearing that happens SO little and when it does, it's usually in weird situations like jumping in a corner while spinning the camera around. Though people are trying to make these such big issues. :lol
Sorry, but the game based on the rediculously short amount time of play and limited aspects (no puzzles and major platforming) has shown me, and a LOT of people that it's GOTY on ALL MACHINES material.
No one's trying to put this as "the PS3 savior", it's going to be a killer AAA game, and it's doing it on it's own. It's getting really old with people trying their best to tear down these big PS3 games. Go ahead and counter this with stupid remarks, I don't care. I hate to use this line that was used by others before, but it's true in this case; "If this game was on the 360, it would've been raised to the heavens". It's the most impressive looking, sounding, and for ALL it's doing, controlling game of the year.
