Tellyn Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 I played the first three levels of the first one, it's a damn good game, kind of Indiana Jones-like in its story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tapedeck Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Finally! Loved the original. The idea of stealth doesn't do it for me but I'll be more than happy to pick it up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flameboy Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 fantastic news, not all that keen on the inclusion of stealth play though. It's like we have gone back in time when every game under the sun tried to include stealth play... Delighted this is coming back though, have to go back and play the original again at some point., one of my favourite PS3 games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jordan Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 Stealth? Ew The new subtitle? Oh god thats bad. But I'm excited about a new Uncharted. So great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esequiel Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 Not so fussed about the stealth aspect, dont want it to get into MGS territory but i will be pre-ordering this for sure. Uncharted is still my favorite game this year (got it in January ^^). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris the great Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 i'd like goldeneye esc stealth, ie, its an option you can take or you can just rambo it. playing it on crushing now, have to say, id rather sneak past some of these fights!

Pit-Jr Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 Wow seems random for such a high profile game. Instant buy though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 I wonder if they'll be chasing classic Splinter Cell for the stealth parts. I'm fucking having this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Choze Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 I doubt it will be stealth focused but probably just some scenarios. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daft Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 I like stealth if I have the option to blast people away. Hope my PS3 doesn't break before this is out. [/bitterness] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MATtheHAT Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 I would take the subtitle 'Among Thieves' with a pinch of salt. GameInformer has made up names before, calling Resistance 2 'United we Fall' Burks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hero-of-Time Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Here's some details from eurogamer. Naughty Dog has said Uncharted 2: Among Thieves will come close to using all of the PS3's power, after the first game used just "30 to 40 per cent". That's according to the Game Informer reveal (read by a poster on the Gametrailers forum), which provides the first details and images of the sequel. We're told to expect a brand new female lead in the shape of Chloe Frazer, who'll be played by Claudia Black from Stargate SG-1 and Farscape. She may use a rocket launcher, as suggested by cut-scene footage. Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, revolves around Nathan Drake finding the lost ships of Marco Polo. Action adventure will still very much be the focus, and Naughty Dog has made significant improvements to combat. Apparently melee will be more "dynamic", and Drake will be able to shoot while running, climbing and hanging, as well as simultaneously move and aim from behind cover. Firefly composer Greg Edmonson will return to score the game, and Nolan North will once again provide the voice and movements for hero Nathan Drake. Naughty Dog apparently refused to comment on whether original heroine Elena or grizzled friend Sully will make comebacks. Uncharted 2: Among Thieves will be unveiled properly on Sunday at the 2008 Video Game Awards. Expect more information to tumble out then. Uncharted: Drake's Fortune was released at the end of 2007 and is one of the best games on PlayStation 3. It can be picked up as part of the PS3's budget Platinum range for around GBP 20. We heavily recommend the game, as our Uncharted: Drake's Fortune review points out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jordan Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 What? A new lead female? Aww man, Elena was a great character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tapedeck Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Maybe it's set BEFORE the original? Just a thought... The characters (Sully specifically) could do with being explained more. Drake also looked a little younger to me in the pictures too. Or maybe that was the snow lol. Either way, I loved the "will they, won't they" Elena and Drake moments in the original. Updating the combat is ace too. Although it wasn't awful in the original it deffo could have been better. And, with the extra power of the PS3 being used I dread to think how awesome it could all look. (Uncharted still looks amazing to me!) Can't wait either way.
