Uncharted 2 - Screens of every chapter in the game

From Gameswire: "OK, we've got a bit obsessive with Uncharted 2, so here's a collection of screenshot batches covering every chapter in the game. Something for fellow obsessives, those who haven't been able to get the game yet, or any curious Xbox 360 loyalists who want to sneak a peak at the PS3's flagship title.

We've done our best to avoid spoilers, but some might have snuck in. So obviously don't look if you're worried about that sort of thing.

And webmasters, feel free to pinch any shots you need for your own articles - the originals come without watermarks if you're signed in!

So without further ado, the shots:"

Don't click it. Go to a store and click "buy" on Uncharted 2: Among Thieves instead. For once you can believe the hype. The game really is that good. Superb if you ask me. I finished it today and all I can say is; I cannot wait to play it again. Naughty Dog. Thank you.

LtSkittles5320d ago

I would buy this game in a heartbeat if I played UC:1, but sadly I have not, and I swear once I get UC:1 I will find the time to get this.

ginsunuva5320d ago

You haven't played the first Uncharted?!?!? After all those years of people praising it, you ignored it? Shame on you.

DK_Kithuni_715320d ago

Nitrowolf25320d ago

You get there really fast actually, its not that hard either just need allot of patience behind cover, those difficulty trophies are the only ones i need

downwardspiral5320d ago

Currently playing Drakes Fortune on crushing, next will be to replay Among Thieves, but I'm sure it still holds up today.

Recently re-platinumed 1-3. Uncharted 2 aged better than I even expected. I enjoyed it more now than I did a decade ago. It’s more polished than 1, tighter than 3 and Yemen in 3 was gorgeous. Shambhala out-prettied Ubar though. 60fps w higher res’ made for a damn good rerun.

Abnor_Mal1471d ago

Question: When you say Uncharted2 aged better than expected, are you talking about the original PS3 game or the remastered collection on PS4. I ask because I think that a remastered version of the game would look and play better than the original.

I doubt that the original ran at 60 frames, how many years old is the remastered collection anyway.

I need to replay the original trilogy along with the collection, not a fan of the collection trophy of beating levels in a set time and don't think the originals required that for platinum.

P_Bomb1471d ago (Edited 1471d ago )

@abnor_mal
It’s true that the remasters have upped the resolution and given it 60fps, but the base game is the same. The art design and base textures/physics/ animations are the same yet still look contemporary. More-so than UC1 which isn’t as tight, or UC3 in some cases which I found a bit clunky in close quarters.

UC2 level design was a great evolution in bringing the verticality from the jungle into rural/urban settings while maintaining smooth animation transitions. Drake still moves better than the ginger in Star Wars Jedi. Outdoor areas are better lit.

UC2 also has more action and better pacing imo, which helps when replaying a game 10 years later. Kept me engaged.

You don’t need to time trial for platinum. They stuck the speedrun trophies in a seperate extended dlc category so have no fear.

MadLad1472d ago

I thought the originals were good, but not great. I understand that puts me in the minority here. That said, Uncharted 4 was freaking fantastic.

Profchaos1472d ago (Edited 1472d ago )

Yeah I understand the hate for 4 prior to playing it I was firmly against it and felt like 3 wrapped things up already but now after playing it I think it was the best in the franchise.

Now I look back at two and I feel like I'm playing an on the rails shooter everything is so tightly scripted including the infamous train scene you simply can't make a mistake

Rimeskeem1472d ago

I think Uncharted 2 is a lot like AC2. Both games took the idea and basically improved it in every single way.

Movefasta19931471d ago

Uc2, AC2,Halo2, Soul calibur 2, Killzone 2, Infamous 2 , Dishonored 2 and a few more. The only negative thing I have against uc2, and imo it annoyed me,are the blue apes, uncharted 1 handled the super natural far better.

My favorite is the building collapsing on Uncharted 2.

goldwyncq1507d ago

The entire final chapter of The Lost Legacy is the best setpiece in the series and it wasn't even mentioned.
