I put this back in after not being able to connect to COD4 game(damn you IW, fix the servers ) and once again I'm blown away by how good this game looks.
The level of detail that went into this game amazes me, WOW, just WOW
I'm still early in the game, the part where Drake is traversing the waterfall after the plane gets shot down.Without a doubt the BEST graphics I've EVER seen in a game. The way the sun was bouncing off the water and the fact that you could see the river rock below the water at the edge of the falls.

So I've beaten this game a hour ago, these are my impressions
+ graphics: it really looks amazing: the enemies, jungle, water
+ music: the main theme reminded me of the last of the mohicans main theme, there were also other tracks that impressed me, mostly music that you can hear on the main menu
+script: amazing script for this kinda cliche adventure game, it has some amazing character moments, great dialogues, every character has an amazing personality (nate, elena, sullivan)
+gameplay, cover system is very good, the combo fighting system is also good when you are out of ammo
+plottwist: you know which on, it's at the end of the game,
- it's not fun that you cannot take every weapon with you, you only have the option between a shotgun and a machine gun, you can't take both with you, that's a minor complaint from me
-the game is sometimes too frustrating, mostly when you need to fight against 10 enemies (laser guys, grenade launcher guys) or more, because they can kill you in one hit.
-game should have had more checkpoints
Conclusion: 9.3/10

it made the game not feel anymore as an adventure but more as a survival horror; bunker level

i hated this level, the enemies looked like the ones from Stalker...
strange, I am usually a real weaksauce gamer, but there was only one fight I really had problems with (inside the fortess, that open fight in the water- played on hard btw.). All others offer so much cover, you just need to take your timeGanondorfo said:
and I rarely saw a game with more or more fair checkpoints. two times I died of a fall and even respawned at the next checkpoint already.

This isnt really a secret per say but I found it interesting.
In the
Well you can completely skip that if you are at the top level next to the tower you can run and jump across grabbing one of the ledges you need to wrap around the fortress and then get quick access to the tower.
Its nice that the game isnt reliant on the scripted sequences.
Also if your going for time this would shave a good amount off.
Thats excellent thanks TTP.
I find this to be BS.
ND is treated like royalty with Sony they are free to do whatever franchises they want.
They have complete creative freedom and a blank check from Sony.
Totally different situation than Bungie found themselves in.
That part in crushing can be a nightmare till you get the hang of the shotgun and grenade.
In the
fortress level after you clear all the baddies out where the tower is that has the 2 keys you need to get at the top. Normally you would run through the gate and begin in the task of traversing and pushing the tops of the columns down.

Just finished the GOTY on Crushing! It was damn hard, but so worth it! I am sitting here with 970 points (Dynomite Expert is what I am missing) and about 35+ playing hours and I could start another play-through and still not be tired of this game. I just got Assassin's Creed from Gamefly, so I think I will play it some now. I hope Uncharted doesn't ruin it for me. Oh well, if it does, I will just play it again!

Oh man I hope your experience is better than mine.
I rented AC played for about a hour once the initial wow this is a sweet city wore off I went back to Uncharted. Probably will try to finally beat COD4 once I am done.

Yeah, I hope it is OK. I know it will not be a Uncharted, but I have been looking forward to AC for a long time now (since E3 2005). I will give it a shot. COD4 is what I played right before Uncharted. The SP is very short, but very intense. It is a superb FPS. The Multi player is a lot of fun too, although I prefer Warhawk to get my MP fix.
Lol dude! It's easy! Timing...just do it slow. Square....triangle....square. I couldn't do the 5 square one cause i was doing it too slow. My favorite combo is blind shoot shoot and then knock them out by one punch, or sliding to knock out there feet.Z3F said:
I also like square r1 square to give them a bitch slap with my gun.
cjtiger300 said:
Uncharted ruined COD4 for me, COD4 was just a step down in terms of enemy AI, freedom of character movement, and outdated game design given I had to physically step over a certain invisible barrier to stop enemies from spawning at certain places. I did like SP in COD4, it's just that there were a bunch of things that really got in the way of playability, headshots in Uncharted is just totally awesome, compounded by the fact that as a player I can do it so often, I'm not limited to a few sniper bullets, as long as I can aim quickly, I can score a headshot. And K&L was completely unplayable after I finished Uncharted on crushing.

FFS, I just watched a huge ****in spoiler while a Spike TV PS3 Nominees videos on Gametrailers.com
**** YOU Gametrailers. Damn it.
**** YOU Gametrailers. Damn it.
Beat it last night, loved it, wished it had more platforming though. The production values were amazing; graphics, animations, sound, voices, everything, just amazing.
I'd probably give it a 9/10, only things I didn't like were the jetski parts, felt it broke up the pacing too much. I didn't mind the 'twist' at the end, since it was so late in the game and playing it hard was perfect. Some parts, like the last level were frustrating, but it was never cheap.

So basically, your only complaints are that the game is too hard for you...Ganondorfo said:
