Uncharted 2 - Among Thieves

Three words OH MY GOD!!!!!!!! This is probably the best games Ive ever played in my entire life. It just so awesome. Not just in one way but in many.

Graphics and Presentation

Well its better to show you than to explain.

As you can see the graphics are top notch. Best there is. The environment looks awesome. The texture and detail are just superb. I haven't seen anything like it. Not just the environment the character animation and detail look awesome. And the best part is the cut scenes are not pre-rendered. Everything is real-time. All thanks to the awesome power of the PS3.

The best part is that the games isnt limited to one location. It moves from Italy to Borneo to Nepal which have very different environments. All these places are recreated in this game with great detail. Thats makes it so special.

Story
Well basically the story revolves around Nathan Drake, a treasure hunter, who is on a mission to find Shangri La (referred as Shimbhala in the game). On his great journey he meets some"OLD FRIENDS" who were with him in the first game. And he has some new friends as well. But are they really friends???? Find out for yourself.

Gameplay


































Well its really simple actually. Move from one point to another by solving in game puzzles, ranges from simple to hard. When you get through the puzzle you kill the guys there and move on. The best part is there are different ways of killing your enemy. First of all you can take a bazooka and blow everyone sky high or slowly sneak behind enemies for a stealth kill. And in melee combat there are a number of cool looking combos you can try out. Except for you normal enemies, you will face some boss characters as well. There is one thing I couldn't mention. This game is quite funny. Its got it all comedy,action and romance

U2 was named Game of the Year 2009 by the VGA's 2009 and also by some other websites including IGN.com and Gametrailers.com. Bottom line is, this is a great game. If you have a PS3 you must play this. If you don't then buy one and play this game.
