name of the song at 2:50

[REDGUY2764]

awesome game, but not the best ever. I'd give it a 9 out of 10

[MrRko4Life101]

3 people never played this game! lol!

[mjprince7]

tarde pero seguro,late but with my hands on it!!! deception it's coming!!

[jakeycod]

este videojuego es una pasadaaaa

[mjprince7]

getting this game next week,looks great.

[LadyKillerBeast]

@mjprince7 your a little late :L

[jlong908]

this game deserves an 8.5. and punch out! is game of the year!

[InsantionNation]

@jlong908 because you r gay, hmmph 8.5, no wonder ur names jlong

[jlong908]

@InsantionNation you are immature no wonder your name is insantionnation. this game deserves an 8.5 because it is almost the same game as the original. this game was also very easy, and the online sucks compared to gears. 8.5 is a good score bro calm the fuck down.

[machstarfox]

@jlong908 i noticed this was posted 6 months ago but god you are an idiot.

[DarthMrB]

The first half of the game had me glued to the screen, but then the story just gets weird and idk I feel its a bit overrated. Id rate this a 9.5 of 10 though cause its fun, the story is good, not amazing, and the graphics

[osheem]

why isn't this review factored into metacritic?

[luisfilipecaldeira]

lol

its an ass worth saving.

[jr0n5]

BUY THIS GAME <3

[Xtreme501Films]

Add me! PSN: strato-caster

[bbdogrocks13]

Uncharted 2 is tied for my favorite game ever. If you havent played it, go buy a ps3 now and buy this game!!!!

[kratos3821]

@bbdogrocks13 can you earn trophies playing costume matches?

[bbdogrocks13]

@kratos3821 costume? do you mean custom? haha and i dont know, i don't do custom matches. sorry :/

[mrshaolinovice]

@bbdogrocks13 - I wish ! lol, its quite expesive you know. But with games like this... it is well worth it !

[BeatlesColdplay]

I know a lot of my Xbox friends who are Jealous of PS3 owners having the Uncharted series

[gameaddicts1]

my friend bought this and said it wasnt that good and said he doesnt like 3rd person multiplayer.technically hes a cod addict/fanboy.this is my favourite game.

[DippersandSmiles]

@gameaddicts1 WTF IS WRONG WITH YOUR FRIEND????!!!!!! nah only kidding not everybody has a good taste of Uncharted but it is still awesome.

[Videot01]

I just bought both Uncharted 1 and 2. Uncharted 1 was a good game but felt a little repetitive at times. Uncharted 2 is one of the best games I've played, I can't wait for the third one.

[ResidenceOfEvil]

And then Uncharted 3 was announced.

[TheBizarreBurrito]

this game made me get a PS3...

[Jake2012RHS]

@TheBizarreBurrito then play Heavy Rain too.

[ResidentDevils]

it would be awesome if they made a movie of Uncharted... but then again if they do i hope they dont fuck it up.

[killallhumansv]

@ResidentDevils lol me too!!

[cwc733]

@ResidentDevils The voice is already movie material + the graphics are great so you can nearly say uncharted 2 is a film

[ResidentDevils]

@cwc733 i couldn't agree more :] everything was super perfect in that game!

[cwc733]

@ResidentDevils However they are making a Uncharted Movie, Naughty dog and Columbia made a deal

[everythingBLUE]

@ResidentDevils Mark Wahlberg is gonna be playing Drake..... eh.

[ResidentDevils]

@everythingBLUE from MAX PAYNE?! HELL NO!

[s1r0tt]

@ResidentDevils they are actually mark waulberg is gonna be drake

[RFLMX]

one of my fav games of all time.

[970067]

This game is BRILLIANT!!! Only thing i didnt like about it is that Sully wasnt in it as much as the 1st but thats only a Minor complaint :)

[RayDrox96]

Mr. GOTY GOD'S GIFT TO THE INDUSTRY

[nerftendo005]

Way to tell 'em how amazing this game is, X-Play!

[Unleashed22594]

Here's my Uncharted 2 story i got MW2 and Uncharted 2 at the same time i played MW2 first, next day put Uncharted 2 in MW2 has been sitting in its case since December, i took this game out of my PS3 to play God of war 3 once i beat that Uncharted 2 went back in. This is one of the best games you will ever play and that is a fact.

[LWebb1000]

@Unleashed22594 I agree yo, the multiplayer is very addicting as well!!

[Tooopper]

@Unleashed22594

its an opinion, dont' get carried away there dude, not everybody will like the game (don't start bullshitting me, i personally loved the game and it is one of my favorite games of all time)

[Unleashed22594]

@Tooopper I dont see how someone couldnt like this game, i didnt see one flaw in it, except for a few multiplayer things but it natural in all games but i love that NDI listens to the fans and fixes all the glitches.

[Tooopper]

@Unleashed22594

here are some possibilities

1. some people don't like linearism in games, some prefer a more open way of playing, uncharted 2 is very linear (this is just a preference to play style)

2. some people just don't find the story interesting (a preference to interest)

3. some people don't like playing multiplayer matches in that style of gameplay (i'm personally an fps player when it comes to online gaming)

since this game doesn't have many bugs, it mostly depends on the player

[mrshaolinovice]

@Unleashed22594 - I'm a PC gamer, and UC2 is freakin AMAZING !!!! I love it ! I've played it a lot in friend's places...

[mrshaolinovice]

Uncharted 2 isn't a video game. It's a fully interactive movie, thats 10+ hours long ;)

Why simply watch a blockbuster movie when you can play through one ? :)

[SpecialForcie]

@Unleashed22594 True story.

[chride87]

@Unleashed22594 never played u1-u2-u3 should i just get u3

[mjfan300]

gaylo succs

[sadmancho]

This game is like a big budget Hollywood movie. 

[jkoer274]

Finally a reviewer who fully understands how great this game really is. FUK YEAH!!!

[JeDiSpartaN300]

at first i was skeptical about how this beat DA or AC2 for game of the year, but as soon as i heard alistair, (steve valentine) i said, "oh, i get it now!"

[franzken]

best looking console game ever.. name one game which looks better

[dillpicle1]

@franzken im new to ps3 im getting one today but one game i would say that has graphics as close or as good as this game would be red dead redemption

[thetenzintsung]

@dillpicle1 hahah red dead redemption??!!? dont even compare that multiplatform shit to uncharted 2

[dillpicle1]

@thetenzintsung i don't know it looks pretty good and remember its just my opinion no need to get upset

[thetenzintsung]

@dillpicle1 yes red dead redemption does look good, but its just uncompareble to uncharted 2

[dillpicle1]

@thetenzintsung ok

[thetenzintsung]

@dillpicle1 fuck you

[dillpicle1]

@thetenzintsung lol did i upset you or something or do you just have turrets

[thetenzintsung]

@dillpicle1 you upset me

[dillpicle1]

@thetenzintsung dude im sorry i wont try to do it anymore

[ChuckNorris924]

mw2 is fun... but in uncharted you can run around with an unlimited supply of RPG's.. without hackin the game!

[Justas923]

This game is truelly can be called an art of gamemaking!

[Jacko459]

@Justas923 Wow, that made no sense at all.

[Justas923]

@Jacko459 masterpiece.

[robross1992]

Don't know how naughty dog will top Uncharted 2

[ITSHIM10]

@robross1992 dont worry they will come up with something like climbing a falling building or go through the desert wow.

[WhyteLis21]

great game instant classic! ps3 just has so many great games.

[crickiit]

yea what about the first one was it good cuz i want to know if thay link it good to part two

[playstationsystems]

Really good game! The graphics are good and the gameplay is even better! It's like your really in the game!

[jhak1341]

are you a good or baD buy in this game cos like your trying to steal a treaser but are you doing it for a reason or are you stealing it for money

[Tomassization]

starts out for money than it changes buy it its good

[jakeinthebox5]

uncharted 2!!!!!! best game ever

[sfgiants20]

@jakeinthebox5

agree with you this game is the greatest game I ever played

[XxDeAdxX23]

@sfgiants20 easily one of the best. here here!

[CapitanKurosaki]

Uncharted 2 or Mass Effect 2?

[AndresPetMonkey]

Uncharted 2!!!!!!!

[retardno123]

They're not on the same platforms, so it's unusual to compare them. Anyway, unless you are a complete RPG nut, Uncharted is the best. If you're completely addicted to those role players, though, Mass Effect is probably more your cup o' joe.

[TheGrawkid207]

Ehhh thats tough for me cause I'm a 360 fanboy. But i DO like ps3 just not as much. but i will have to say Uncharted 2. Graphics are better, and the story of adventure treasure hunting with great characters make the decision easy =D

[manciuxl1]

the women in red shirt is so fucking ugly it looks like my grandma

[thepazza08]

gettin today how hard is it compared to drakles fortune

[TOALEWA466]

@thepazza08 a bit harder, but i beat it in bout ten hours so you'll be fine

[Paclassics99]

How many levels?parts are they im at the part where in the mountain a ram/human attack the villeger is that close to the end of the game?

[Dster1024]

I'm pretty sure there are twenty six

[AndresPetMonkey]

youre about half way

[watermelonboy100]

can you turn off the blood and language

[Usul573]

Nope.

Both Uncharted games are pushing the T rating, doesn't bother me though.

[superaidsta]

is there monsters in this onelike there was in drakes fortune?

[bjtbjtbjtfffff]

maybe.....

play and find out...

[boxboysux]

yea there is but they are called guardians

[foadysfah]

somebody got scared from the zombies in uncharted 1??? :P Well play this game and find out yourself! NOTHING CAN RUIN SUCH AN AWESOME GAME! Even if you poop your pants you will want to keep playing! (oh and you won't poop your pants XD)

[DlomasterFTW]

lol those zombies totally freaked me out in the german bunkers =p

[xtNinjaKillertx]

yah at the end though and there a pain to kill though

[packr72]

GAME OF THE YR

[dbzsony]

I can't wait to play this.

Got this on order but it's not delivered yet.

Was suppose to get it on release day but I decided to spend the money on MW2.

And boy, is MW2 shit!?

Well, I'd say I overhyped it way too much.

And I played UC2 beta so yep, I'm confident that this'll last me a good few months.

[zenokro]

5/5? more like 2/5

[SpadeHand]

Nope.

[booze925]

@zenokro how so?

[godisarobot]

2/5 your an idiot uc2 is epic

[SolidEva]

What the!? Have you even played this game zenokro!? I doubt you have or you wouldn't be saying that!

[zenokro]

yes as i have almost got the platnium, was just trolling this game is crack (in a good way)

[SolidEva]

Huh..?

[zenokro]

u already forgot ur comment..jesus youtube is filled with these kinda ppl

[SolidEva]

What the hell!? No, actually I just totally misunderstood your reply, what do you mean!?

[metalhawk7]

well i didn't get sh|t for Christmas that means no ps3 for me and my B-day is in a couple on days and am Not getting any thing either

[wirechair]

well, belated merry Christmas and happy bday in advance......! lol

[noypiako15]

..well aint it a bad day..huh!

me too bro i also did not get no PS3 on christmas and even this april that my mom came from dubai ,,..nothin damn

[jakkrauser]

@metalhawk7 :( well yeah i see wat ur feeling BUT i was told if i get good grades in school till christmas ill get a ps3 :D and ill get uncharted 2 with it as the first game

[havokchild27]

I really never wanted to play uc2

I've always been a cod guy.

But I bought a ps3 last week and uc2.. As sessler said.. It is hands down the best single player game I've ever played.

Though modern warfare is close in 3rd place! (for 360)

[zeldasps3]

it is an epic experience. Halo isnt its just an overrated piece of shit game!

[BiboDL]

@zeldasps3 SPEAK THE TRUTH MY PS3 BROTHA! (and/or sister :P)

[PSNRULEZ]

Best game ever. Period.

[SimplyPhenomenal7]

who cares about graphics ? oh so now people say that when the ps3 has developed a masterpiece, that xbox cant create. when xbox make a good game, people are bragging about graphics, yet when ps3 makes a number of good games, people start bashing. this is an awesome game, 10/10, game of the year. so not overrated.

[metalhawk7]

well that's the world we live in

[SimplyPhenomenal7]

yeah ino. its a bitch eh

[HomiesOfMars]

@metalhawk7 Yea to bad it has to be that way...

[BiboDL]

@SimplyPhenomenal7 Your right! Also I think the graphics are great.. no no no.. GGGGGGGGREAT! better then frosted flakes great!

And according to Gametrailers it has the BEST story, single player campaign, graphics and is the best thrid-person shooter of 2009

It was also a nominee for best multi-player

[SimplyPhenomenal7]

thanks man : ) it got the game of the year award aswell! i just love playing this game , 1080p, surround sound. amazing experience.

[XxDeAdxX23]

@SimplyPhenomenal7 well if you think about it, this game is more under rated then anything. you dont ever hear your friends talking about it. its always "DUDE I got a nuke on RUST in MW2!" when they should be talking "Man i got a sick Five not alive in like 3 seconds hanging on a building on Temple wit a grenade and a desert eagle." i swear mw is so overated even if it is fun, uncharted just keeps it simple and hella fun, while mw2 is so much about the prestige crap.

[SimplyPhenomenal7]

@XxDeAdxX23 i know, it is under rated in some cases. but im glad its got the awards it has got. i have both uncharted 2 and mw2 and i like them both. but in terms of single player experience, never before have i enjoyed one like uncharted 2. the graphics 1st of all beat a hell of a lot of games. its so realistic! the gameplay is amazing and the physics engine. everything is great about that game and people should be talking about it more.

[mrcow94]

almost shit my pants at the end when he said, "This is the best single player experience I've ever played..", now thats sayin somethin lol

[Chrisbecerra356]

do i need to play the first one to understand the story ?

[ildlgamereviews]

@Chrisbecerra356 no even though you will understand more it gives u a completely different story has nothing to do with the old one except for charachters

[zeldasps3]

@Chrisbecerra356 no not really. i played part 2 first and then part 1. so...no.

[caribbeangamerboy]

not necessarily but get it...its like only $30 now.

u heard seesler.....uc1 was very underappreciated. look wen i got uc1 in 2007 when it came out....my jaw dropped...besides the graphics...i have nevr seen such a awesome story in a game b4..

uc1 was freakin awesome but uc2 is just epic.

[MrColombianpride123]

OMFG I WANT IT I CNT W8 till christmas o.o

[metalhawk7]

yeah college classes almost over last week as soon i get time am buy this and MW2 and a PS3 SOoooonnn

and i start uploading vids again

[mustafaarshad]

haha thats exactly what i did, good choice.

[gabrielos69]

yes it is so sweeet

[efrofooty21]

mw2 is amazing. the only problem is theres not much difference between it and cod4. butt remember when yu 1st got addicted to cod4 for like 5 months, nothingg can beat that feeling. mw2 is very good tho,

[rasuk]

this is way better than mw2. though modern warfare is fun. i mean the campaign though its like fucked cse bullets are fucking you in every angle. but its no where as epic as uncharted 2. I MEAN THE FIRST 5 MINUTES IS ALREADY BREATH TAKINGLY INTENSE. and the graphics are the best. imo better than mgs4. mgs4 didnt have that ammount of detail as uncharted 2. uncharted 2, best game of the year. i need uncharted 1, im thinking of trading in fallout 3 for it.

[Blomman1992]

Can you play MP (offline) or Co-op on this game?

[PromtheusZero]

Nah, you can't play multiplayer co op or vs offline at all.

[semisanity]

I can only get this game in a few days, so I replayed Uncharted 1 in preperation. I managed to speedrun through it in 2 hours (with all bonuses enabled)

[XboxUser619]

Uncharted 2 deserves game of the year not MW2.

[DDRrez]

agreed, cod is so over rated and brings nothing new to the table, plus the graphics are kinda ugly.

halo 3 is kinda over rated but at least its fun.

[arlington925]

@DDRrez xD MW2 graphics are better than this......

[DDRrez]

who cares about graphics when the game is just another fps? really, its quite over rated and a milked series, even more than halo,

[Mahagawaga]

'Just another' FPS? Are you willfully ignorant of the fact this is an adventure-focused game? Sure it is FPS orientated but what's you point? Does that somehow make it bad, or are you just butthurt over how exceptional the graphics are?

For the record: NO SERIES has been more overrated than Halo, COD comes in close behind. In fact the Uncharted series is hardly known at all, at least from my encounters with people. Mention Halo and everyone knows what it is.

This game shits all over 360. kk

[DDRrez]

i am not ignorant, your just making up reasons for me to some how change my opinion. sure, their DECENT graphics (mw2) but theirs nothing special about it. for example, even though even though i dont like killzone 2 for its cheesy and poorly done story, the graphics are well done and resemble a big budget action movie with all the over dramatic hand movements and gritty look, see thats unique. the reason i think uncharted 2 looks good is because it has a well chosen selection of colors.

[Mahagawaga]

Of colours? Lmao? Is that your reason? LOLOLOL!!

Lots of games have colours... Uncharted 2 is special in that it has exceptionally crispy clear textures, animations, clarity and technical boasters i.e. the physics and animations.

Right, now you asked 'who cares about graphics' and I asked if you were butthurt over how amazing they are because otherwise why would you bring them up? You didn't say if they were good or not, yet now you say they are, but 'their' only decent?

Review ratings....

[DDRrez]

"You didn't say if they were good or not, yet now you say they are, but 'their' only decent?"

wait so i cant say their decent?......................w­hat?

"You didn't say if they were good or not"..............

i didnt? *checks*.... i said they where boring before and saying something is boring and decent arent exactly specific.

i am not butt hurt just confused.

[DDRrez]

and i dont feel like typing tons of paragraphs anymore, but modern warfare is absolutley grey and brown. thats why i like uncharted, but its not extremley colorful like halo 3.

[Mahagawaga]

In the first of yours that I replied to...

Were you talking about COD? Because I thought you were bashing Uncharted 2. We've been defending the same game for no reason?

SIGH..

[DDRrez]

oh hell no XD oh god i feel stupid now......

but no, i loved uncharted 2 and respect it. naughty dog was always cool. and uncharted 2 surpassed the first imo.

[runawaymotor]

It's not an fps.

[bwb21396]

its not fps

[DDRrez]

i am talking about mw2.................... -_-

[phonestevey]

definitely not even more than halo... everyone talks about halo, but i hardly see or about uncharted that much.

[xVZer0x]

Haha. Ha.

Ha.

[caribbeangamerboy]

kind of ugly....dude cod graphics r the most overrated graphics ever!

i remember looking at the back of the cod 4 case it said "the most photo reaistic game we've ever seen" i was looking 4ward 2 it.

maybe it cuz i played uc1 b4 cod 4...but damn graphics were fugly.

[iveayu]

beating mgs4? lmfao ...>> it's good but not that good =] 4 1/2

[GTAMaster911]

5 stars on this video for the 5 stars they gave this game!

[GTAMaster911]

I think call of duty 6/modern warfare 2 and uncharted 2 are equal. I'd give both a 5/5 or 10/10

[Usul573]

There's room for both.

They are different, MW2 was pretty good.

[kanetheking]

whats the name of the song that starts at 2:50?

[tonycl568]

if this is not game of the year, vga can go fuck themselves

[metalhawk7]

video game awards ? well i guess that's ur personal choice depends on what video games you like

[Zhulufuse]

this game is better than Modern Warfare

[metalhawk7]

lol i want this game and COD MW 2 but freaking college holding up my vid uploads and time to even comment on youtube comments

[IplayRate]

offline yes

online no

sorry

but its true

[dude991575]

modern warfare kicks more ass

[65341]

TRANSLATION: I bought the wrong game and rather than doing the smart thing and returning it, i'm going to justify my choice on other random game reviews.

[shmellymangirl]

haha so true

[THEACNEKIDS138]

mw2 not even on uncharted2s level loll

[Lelouch048]

damn straight

[megamunchit2008]

Modern Warfare sucks and it's overrated.

[narutofan9423]

uncharted 2 is way better than MW2 and yes I own it.

[KralleCR]

this game is possibly one of the greatest games i have ever played. this is one of few games ive played where i was really nervewracked from the fights. esPECIALLY in the last fight. i started off on the hardest mode i could, as i played against the boss, i was constantly just thinking "oh shit oh shit oh shit, where is he?!" honestly, this is better than devil may cry1-4 combined, or left4dead, even cod 4
