Uncharted 2: Among Thieves thoughts

October 22nd 2009 02:47
I bought Uncharted 2 and finished it in a few days. I just wanted to get on here and gush about what a fantastic game I thought it was (don't worry no spoilers). Without doubt this is my game of the year (sure I know we've still got a few good releases before the years end, but it's doubtful any of them are going to better Uncharted 2 Among Thieves for story, characterization or overall gameplay content).


If you have a PS3 and you don't yet have Uncharted 2, what the hell are you thinking? After the utter disappointment with Halo 3: ODST in which the female character was laughable in her role as 'leader' (cough cough!) Uncharted 2 features two of the coolest female characters in any video game.

Yeah that's a big call to make, but you know what, it's made. Chloe and Elena rock out despite being still aligned as the peripheral love interest for the main male lead. Naught Dog somehow manage to tread the fine line between doing the peripheral female, but make them both so frakkin awesome it doesn't matter.

Maybe the boys club at Bungie and MS should take a trip to Naughty Dog studios and see how it's done properly, so that we don't have another pathetic excuse for a female leader as they did with Dare in Halo: ODST.

Well done Naughty Dog, awesome game, great characters, great story.
