Uncharted 2 : Among Thieves Review

Storyline

Wow........ Uncharted 2. Just wow. This game is simply amazing. It takes place all over the world from Italy to Borneo, Nepal to Tibet. You're a famed fortune Hunter, Nathan Drake who is lured into the world of thieves when your friend, Flynn tells you about a treasure that could make you wealthy beyond belief. You then find that your not alone in this hunt for power. A fugitive war criminal has hired an army to help him find the treasure that could make him the fiercest leader the world has ever seen. This story is full of betrayals and last second failures that lead to the climax.

Settings

This game has amazing graphics and almost realistic views. This game has three main aspects, fighting, climbing, and solving puzzles. The action scenes in this game are vast. You have stealth kills, gun fights, melee fights, and even turret vs helicopter fights. Climbing is okay, though it can get irritating when you are falling constantly or don't know where to jump to, it makes you feel like some sort of ninja when you are jumping from ledge to ledge. Solving puzzles is the same, irritating when you get stuck, but gives you a sense of pride when you complete them.

Game Play

As I said before there are three main types of game play, fighting, climbing, and puzzles. However, there are time when those aspects are combined and make it more fun, but also more challenging. There is also game play where you have moving environments and you have to compensate turns and speed.

Online Play

Uncharted 2: Among Thieves monline multiplayer is one of the best I've ever seen. Everyone starts out with the same weapons and you have to find others which makes it more fair since usually the higher ranks have better guns. I've never seen anyone hack this game and I've owned for nearly a year now and there's almost no lag. The game play here is simply addicting and will have you hooked for days of game play.
