Uncharted |OT|

Yoshichan

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?
I finally got it.

Great, great game. Really enjoying it, I got to chapter 18 or 20 yesterday, just after the "twist", if you can call it that.

Not sure how I feel about that part of the narrative, but up until that point it was all aces and joy. Hopefully I will finish it on normal tonight and crack on with Hard tomorrow.

I think the "twist" kind of reconciles the things that didn't have an explanation earlier in the game, it's not really a "twist", not really.

Yeah, I think so too. Also, someone else mentioned earlier that
it's a shame that storyline doesn't get resolved at the end (I haven't finished the game so can't really fully speak my mind yet). If they don't explain the demons, then that is truly a homage to Indiana Jones and similar movies imo. They didn't really explain the ghosts in the Ark, did they? Or how they could remove beating hearts from people in the second movie, or how the evil dude melted in the last movie with the Holy Grail etc. Such supernatural things simply exist. Just got to the nazi bunker btw, and those monsters are fucking nasty. They remind me of the small trigens in Far Cry.

Well it was really the last thing I was expecting... so it's twisty enough. I'm glad for the variety but it kinda smacks of Halo... if yanno what I mean.

Not so much, when I have my trusty shotgun. :D They could pin me all day...as long as I don't run out of bullets.

I never realised how good at headshots I am, why can't I do this in FPS' :mad:

Just got up to boom boom man for the first time on crushing... goddamn. >_<

The copy I got stopped working after the first chapter so I haven't played the game yet (though it'll arrive today)... I wonder what the twist is o_o... Small hints?

can't really say anything, i don't want to ruin your enjoyment of the game. let's just say it's not really a twist.

Absoloutely. Will comment on the ending tomorrow, I hope.
i think the plot could have been as interesting, if not more, even without that thing. it just feels a little, ehm words fails me, "cheap".

the ending
imho has probably the worst boss battle in any game ever
:D (not really a spoiler here)
but it's not only that, it really feels so rushed to me.

The game never felt to me like it needs a boss battle, it could have easily done without. For me it should have ended with a jetski escape sequence like the one with the jeep, just more challenging with stuff collapsing all around etc.

I was just at a local Toys R' Us & EB games, looking for UT3 & I noticed that both stores are sold out of Uncharted. I saw one lady get the last copy of Uncharted at EB, she was buying a 80GB PS3 with Ratchet & Clank as well.
The TRU had a line up of maybe 14 to 15 people in the game department & maybe 8-9 were buying PS3's. I asked the guy at the counter and he said the in the last 2 weeks PS3's have been selling like crazy & they have gone through 4 shipments of Uncharted.

I hope this is a sign of good sales for Uncharted & R&C during the holiday shopping frenzy!

Didn't you hear? Uncharted bombed in the UK! The latest software charts are up for the week ending the 8th. Uncharted ranks 23rd in the top 40. This is a disaster! It should have sold more for its first day. America will do just as poorly. :lol

It released on the 7th. It was just first day sales, I was joking. Mass Effect is mega-bomber. Bioware is going to cry. Don't worry, though. America is the only country that matters in the world. So by purchasing your copy through import you will have attracted millions of more naive patriots to purchase this game. :D The world will belong to Uncharted soon enough. Sales equals greatness!

The "zombies" are just the Spanish, who never left the idol, probably infected with what got the old guy at the end, just a full transformation.


Er, maybe he was just speaking about Indiana Jones... :lol

Thats even worse! You didn't even pony up your own money for Uncharted! You have disgraced the Barrelama! 10 lashes for you!
But I'm poor :( It gets worse...I'm going to buy AC with my own money...

Man, we should have bought two copies. One just to tantilize fellow gamers. We'll gift package it and everything. Matter of fact, we'll throw another PS3 in there as well. Once the gifts are wrapped and tied with a bow, we'll place the presents under said gamer's Christmas Tree. On Christmas morning, that gamer is so excited that he/she unwraps the Uncharted package. Quickly, he/she breaks the sealing and opens the case. But low and behold, there is no disc inside. The gamer then discovers it is similar with the biggest package: there is no PS3 inside. :D

lol. But POP is one of my favorite games...I can't miss it.

I loves Uncharted...I made someone buy it for me at full price, and then post it to me special delivery - which cost a total of $90 :)

Its nothing like POP! If it handled a bit like that, then maybe it could have been salvaged! Seriously deep, rent it & you will see!

We don't rent in the UK. We can buy our games less than retail price and sell them second hand for the very same price. :)

Don't worry...you haven't added me.

Look at it this way. Uncharted was so important to me that I had to have immediately, so I busted my gut to get an American to buy it for me. This is contrasted to AC, which I have yet to buy and I'm waiting for it to drop in price :) You seeee
