Re: Uncharted 2: Among Thieves

I'm getting this via Amazon as well. I used a $10 gift card they gave me. Sadly, I got the ECA account after that so I couldn't take advantage of stacking a 10% off coupon on top of it.

Re: Uncharted 2: Among Thieves

I just pre-ordered this for $36.29 from amazon, and I'm not even sure how. I cancelled my previous pre-order, then added it to my cart again. I entered an ECA code for $5.70 off, but then the screen listed $10 off and $5 off as separate discounts in the window. Maybe I had a $5 off future game purchases from a previous order I didn't know about, but I have no idea where the $10 came from. I have Prime, so release day shipping is free.

Re: Uncharted 2: Among Thieves

Is this a demo for everyone or just a preorder bonus for Gamestop people?

Re: Uncharted 2: Among Thieves

Gamestop version has been going on for 2 weeks already. So I assume this is the public MP demo.

Re: Uncharted 2: Among Thieves

Kotaku's review is up.

I'm not one to say something is the best ever or to dole out perfect scores, and Uncharted 2 does have its share of trivial issues, but to date, Naughty Dog's second adventure with Nathan Drake appears to be the best experience hitting a console this fall.
I want this game. Now.

Fall started 1 week ago. That's a mighty bold claim, to date.

Re: Uncharted 2: Among Thieves

my expectations for this game have been high. I downloaded the demo today and to be frank, it surpassed my expectations! seriously, this game kicks butt. I cannot wait to get my pre-order in the mail. I can only hope I get to try even more of this game at the preview screenings next week. anyone else know about these?

You get to watch them show off the game on the big screen, get free food, drinks, and then get to play the game since they're having a MP tourney. I've got my ticket already and i'm totally gonna be practicing the MP demo since it looks like the MP winner's walking out with the Fortune Hunter Edition! Sweeeeeeeeeeet

ETA: ugh. lame I can't post links. you can find the theaters that are doing it on a google search.

That's as good as your going to get for a PS3 title from a blog that should be renamed "Can we please suck you off Microsoft?"

Re: Uncharted 2: Among Thieves

Although I loved reading both reviews, I found the following in the Kotaku review confusing:

Uncharted 2: Among Thieves was developed by Naughty Dog and published by Sony Computer Entertainment for the Playstation 3 on Oct. 13. Retails for $29.99 USD. Played entire campaign mode on normal difficulty. Tested hard difficulty. Played several sessions of multiplayer with the game's developers on a private network.
Did this already get a price drop and nobody told me?

Sounds awesome, doesn't it? Are you going? I'm definitely gonna be there. I hear they might be raffling off copies of Uncharted 2 too so maybe i'll get a chance to take it home early!

Re: Uncharted 2: Among Thieves

I don't get all the excitement about a 720p game being shown on a 4K projector. Unless they're showcasing a 4K version of the game, it's rather pointless.

It is scoring lots of perfect scores on Metacritic. I think this may be the GOTY! Loved the first Uncharted so this is a no brainer for me.

At some point, you have to believe that we're not talking about hyperbole...and that U2 might just be THAT good.

You know, even in that context, that abbreviation doesn't work for me. Can't we just call it Uncharted 2?
