Re: Uncharted 2: Among Thieves

well this was a surprise. Got home from work today and there was a fedex with Uncharted2 waiting for me. Family's in town, so it might be a bit before I can get into it.

Exactly. Family will love and accept you forever. We'll only be impressed and jealous that you have this game until the release date.

Pfft. She's had another 59 birthdays with you there. She wont mind if you sit this one out.

Just make sure she doesn't see the game or she'll think it's her present.

Yeah, I'd be okay with that. When people here are writing about how awesome U2 is, I keep thinking they're talking about, well, U2. Can't we have an abbreviation that doesn't exactly mimic the top Rock & Roll band in the world?
My proposal, from now on, whenever we want to discuss Uncharted 2 : Among Thieves, we refer to the game as "The Beatles".

Re: Uncharted 2: Among Thieves

I played some of the MP Beta last night. Good fun. Took for ever to get in a game though. I think it said only 10000 people online. I see they added the ingame video recording with screen caps ala Halo 3, nice. The maps are very detailed. Can't wait for the single player missions.

Re: Uncharted 2: Among Thieves

People that complain about fractions of a point are dumber than a box of rocks.

"A 9.3?!?!? They are biased to score it so low!!!11!! It deserved at least a 9.5!!!!111!"

Re: Uncharted 2: Among Thieves

Not to show my age or my general internet iliteracy but why the "11" and "111"? i've seen it in certain rants and can't begin to guess what it means. At first I thought it substituted "!" but then I see plenty of those in use at the same time so I don't get it.

Its just a way of mocking stupid people, people that like to abbreviate "you" as "u" and "are" as "r" and that kind of thing. These people also tend to overuse exclamation marks, and they tend be too stupid to hold down the Shift key properly so that once in awhile a few 1's may pop up in the string of exclamation marks.

Ah, okay. I always thought there was some hidden meaning to all the ones.

Thanks for taking the time to explain it to me.

Yep, he's pretty much right, he just beat me to the post.

It is also from the bygone days of script kiddies on the computers who would be like

Re: Uncharted 2: Among Thieves

Hmm. Someone actually found a practical use for trophies? Sounds interesting.

I just hope they let you simply load the medals for those of us that never bothered to get the trophies patch.

That reminds me of the infamous Killzone 2 review G4 did:

Re: Uncharted 2: Among Thieves

I played through the first couple chapters last night, wow. It was fantastic so far. Snow drifts as you walk through it, the animation is stunning. As expected, the graphics and voice work is outstanding. Good times.

Except I think the twitter integration of the game isn't working yet I don't see my in game tweets posted.
