Fortune hunter Nathan Drake returns in Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, a pulse-pounding third-person action-adventure/shooter created by award-winning developer Naughty Dog and exclusive to PlayStation 3.
Down on his luck, Drake is lured back into the treacherous world of thieves and mercenary treasure-seekers he had sought to leave behind. When a mysterious artifact propels Drake on an expedition to find the legendary Himalayan valley of Shambhala, he finds himself embroiled in a dangerous game of cat-and-mouse against a fugitive war criminal who's after more than just the fabled riches of the lost city.
Caught in a web of deception and plunged into an increasingly deadly pursuit that tests the limits of his endurance, Drake will be forced to risk everything - but has his luck finally run out?

Story: 8/10 Characters: 7/10 Gameplay: 6/10 Overall: 7/10





missed the first game, but will be geting it after this, great story which twist and turns good game play and a good length single play mode which makes a change from all the other games around that mainly consentrate on online play





Brilliant game... Best graphics I have seen so far on the PS3.... No wonder this won the Game of the year... I didn't really try the online element much, but from what I did try it looks really slick...





Brilliant game, almost feels like a movie.





excellent game fully entertaining and original





Excellent game! If you enjoyed the first Uncharted then I definitely recommend this. A lot of improvements have been made, it would be a very long list if I were to name them all but in short, almost every aspect of the game has been improved some way or another (some small difference, some large difference). Most notably the graphics are stunning, better than the 1st which is saying something since the 1st looked great too. Some annoyances have been removed too, like the bizarre head duck maneuver that the baddies would do if you shot them near the head. The game is longer too at 26 chapters. There's also multi-player although I didn't get a chance to play any of that. The puzzle difficulty is the same as the 1st game, i.e. not the most difficult in the world but still fun. It isn't a puzzle game anyway so it shouldn't factor in to your decision of whether to buy this game. The voice acting in the game was done really well too, Drake manages to pull off some funny bits of dialog. This time the game is more centered around the adventure aspect rather than gun fights. There's still plenty of shooting involved but less so than the first as stealth kills take on a more important role.

Having played the first, and enjoyed it. This game was pretty good too. still had the tomb raider/ indiana jones feel to it. and some areas where just soo damn hard. overall rent this if you feel like an adventure and a good laugh!





After playing it you realise quite quickly why this game was so high in the reviews. I loved the graphics and gameplay and most importantly it was addictive and both the story and the gameplay action in the game kept me playing for hours. it should be tried out no doubt sa.





Brilliantly Epic Game - I loved it and would highly recommend :) 9/10





Absolutely fantastic game, would reccomend to anyone. Graphics are some of the best I have ever seen in any game on the PS3. The only thing that may let it down is it is a bit short and can be done quite quick if wanted. But overall 10/10 amazing game and a must have for anyone.
