Uncharted 2 ships in the UK today. The superlative bin is empty: it's the highest rated PS3 exclusive of all time, and one of the best reviewed full stop.
We were lucky enough to get some time with Evan Wells, co-president of Naughty Dog, to talk about the game's development, how PS3's unique aspects allowed the team to make the title it did, how the company will now follow on into a third game and much more.
Chris, Joseph, and Josh celebrate Active Quest’s 100th episode by discussing their favorite games of all time.
Nevada Dru from Bits & Pieces revisits Uncharted 2: Among Thieves to see if this legendary game has stood the test of time.
Currently playing Drakes Fortune on crushing, next will be to replay Among Thieves, but I'm sure it still holds up today.
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.
I think Uncharted 2 is a lot like AC2. Both games took the idea and basically improved it in every single way.
Cultured Vultures: What's your favourite moment from the Uncharted franchise? Here are 15 that got our blood pumping.
The entire final chapter of The Lost Legacy is the best setpiece in the series and it wasn't even mentioned.
Evan Wells is a great guy. Classy and talented beyond belief. Good interview. Hopefully we get another Naughty Dog game on PS3 by 2011.
85 people internally worked on UC2, and it took 18 months!
Naughty Dogs are freaking game geniuses!!!!
Long, epic single player, fully fleshed out mp, coop, movie mode!!!!
85 people and 18 months!!!! I know they had Sony support but damn this is crazy!!!
Got the game yesterday, only just started, Cinematics AMAZING its like a visual representation of a Matthew Reilly book (in my opinion) absolutely amazing. Cant wait to continue the game through the weekend, lectures done for the week, all time dedicated to UC2!
"We’re fortunate that we get to work on a system that has a hard drive and uses blu-ray for storage. Without these things, Uncharted 2 would have been a very different game. What we were able to do with the Cell processor allowed us to achieve a density of polygons and a fidelity to our effects that would simply not be possible without it."
Just sayin'
Another great interview from him. He always gets to the point of the question and remains humble about things as well. I do hope they get the much needed rest and can come back and get right back into deciding what direction they want to go in next. Whether they decide to give us a new Uncharted or even a New Jak game is fine with me. Either one would be a day one buy.
