argh some parts of the game are really annoying with my shitty TV
It's the journal isn't it. Even on an hd set I some times have a hard time reading somethings in it. Mostly just the jokes.
Finished my 200th GAU kill. Yay second platinum trophy. Thinking about taking marco polo online but I'd feel like I've betrayed Victor Goddamn Sullivan.

Man, co-op objective mode is so much fun. Zany stuff just happens!
So I'm on my crushing run. Anyone figure out how to stealth the 2nd set piece in chapter 22?
The monastery gates. I can get the 3 guys on the right (the two on the bottom and the guy on the ledge) fairly easily, but I get noticed half the time in the middle of taking the guy leaning against the half wall, and on the few occasions I get him, I can't even approach the guy by the fire without being noticed
Started my second run through, and I'm still blown away by the graphics. Even noticed a small detail in the opening level, when Nate will cup his hands and blow on them to try to warm up. Just seeing that made me smile so much because it's such a natural gesture.
I'm slowly catching up on all of the posts in this thread. I did a full media blackout other than watching the first vid with the bus sequence, and avoided this thread until I'd finished the game. Holy fuck, in the 17 or 18 years that I've been playing video games, that would have to be one of the best and most epic games ever. Jesus fuck. I'm blown away, and now it's my sole mission to make sure that everyone on the planet plays or watches someone play Uncharted 2.
The first thing I wanted to do when I finished it was play it again, but I told my girlfriend I'd do my second playthrough while she was around so she can watch it. She loved Uncharted 1. Dagnabbit!
Edit: Oh yeah, did anybody else really, REALLY wish they added an anytime screenshot ability for the single player? There were so many moments where I thought "I want to remember this. This is so fucking awesome. I want to study this in detail, this is one of the greatest achievements in gaming ever."
Uncharted 1 (And now 2 by a long shot) seems to be one of those games that entertains people that are just watching it, and even get's them to want to try it. The latter I'm hearings tons off, which is great that the Very Easy mode is just that.
Also I FINALLY got to try some of the non-beta MP levels last night, and man, those are fun. The Lost City level may be my new favorite. Freaking beautiful level, with lots of verticality.
4 friends came over to the house last night to wish my GF a happy birthday. One of them expressed an interest in seeing Uncharted 2 because he had "heard the game is beautiful". I turned it on and handed him the controller and went back to the conversation between the other 3 and the GF. By the time he got to the oil lamp scene in the museum everyone in the room, including the birthday girl, had gone silent and were watching and listening intently. There were some chuckles at Drake's shadow puppets and his "own bucket" in the Turkish prison as well as some exclaimations of recognition of Claudia Black's voice. I turned the game off at that point because it was stealing her birthday spotlight.

hide against the wall on the right and kill the guy leaning against it. then climb down and around to the right and kill the guy by the fire when he comes over to the cliff. climb up to the right and pull down the guy on the platform (theres a treasure down there somewhere while youre climbing around too). i couldnt figure out how to stealth anyone else after that, but that gets you into a good position for the firefight anyway.

the journal sucks too but I haven't needed to read the tiny text yet (though I'd like too).
its just this one encounter with a bunch of doods with a lot of shadows and I can't make anything out for clean headshots
Man, co-op objective mode is so much fun. Zany stuff just happens!
When things start going a bit wrong, and there are dudes everywhere, and the team isn't really coordinated, things go completely Benny Hill, with everyone just running all over the place.
Well, you know, like Benny Hill, but with murders.

That would be a great treat for the last round of co-op -- put it on "fast speed" and start the Benny Hill music.

I did basically the same, but you can also get the guy leaning up against the wall as the 3rd kill. You have to wait for the other guy walking around to not be watching, then just run up behind him, stealth kill, and go back to the wall to climb up to the guy on the upper ledge.
From there you can stock up on weapons, stealth the last guy up there (which you will 99% of the time be seen while doing).
Then you are in a great defensible position for the firefight.

Those are the ones I already mentioned I can get. It's the guy facing the fire next the the wall for the 2 story building and the 2 patrolling guys I'm having trouble with. Particularly the later 2.

Maaaaaaan... So I bought this last night and played the hell out of it for a few hours. I absolutely love it. The "tutorial" section blew my mind, and scared the crap out of me! Anyway, I was looking forward to hunkering down over the weekend with the game.
But now I have to take a last minute business trip that's going to delay my binge by at least two weeks
Arrgh, I watched the Sessler's Soapbox about Brutal Legend/Uncharted and just saw what I believe is the intro to Uncharted 2. I already knew about that part from the E3 trailer but now I know you get to actually play it...
Damn my desire for more ingame cash! UC1 you will not defeat me.
I bought it on Monday, didn't have anytime to play it, started playing yesterday and got through the train part with my heart beating and me yelling at the screen for him to bust his ass off that train. THEN the power went out in my house.... Like wtf as if god thinks its funny to do this shit to me. Now work is going by slow as fuck and I just want to go home and play this game.

It's so immature.

I thought about turning that on...but then I figured it would end up just like that comic.

I may neglect to turn my headset on, no-one wants to hear me coughing throughout the entire game.

CREEEEEAAAAAAAAAK....
"Okay, all I have to do is climb up this pole and I'll be--"
*Pole snaps, flings Drake into the side of the train.*
"GYAH!....Okay, all I have to do is climb up these seats and I'll be--"
*Seat collapses, flings Drake out a window*
"GYAH!"
*Has been playing for less than five minutes.*
And yet somehow he manages to not break any bones every time he's knocked back by explosions or falling trains.

It was so awesome. At one point I shouted "OH COME ON NOT EVEN JOSS WHEDON FUCKS WITH HIS CHARACTERS THIS BADLY", yet I was loving it so hard.
Generally followed up by a quipy one-liner!
Thank god for the pretty much instant respawning; it lets you try all sorts of crazy tactics with absolutely no frustration.

Also, can the OP be updated to indicate those with and without headsets? I need to play the co-op with sociable people.

Is that when you stealth kill them?
For guns it seems to give you more ammo.
