    Wait a few weeks. Bundles, man.


    Walmart has PS3, Arkham Asylum, Dark Knight BD, and (something else) for 299.

    I kind of wish I waited to get mine, but oh well...

    Me too, man. Me too.

    Oh well. I paid to get to play it early, or something.

    So glad they're not going the James Bond route with Drake. Him and Elena have awesome chemistry. I'm also predicting hilarity in Uncharted 3, or at least a couple good lines, about Sully/Chloe.

    I have to admit I was a bit worried about it when the first previews/art/images came out.

    So I'm playing through this game with much trepidation, as I'm tired of Indonesians jumping out from corners and shooting me to death. I'm rewatching some scenes on Youtube and I saw this video that basically reveals (to me) that there are people you kill during some firefights that cause more people to spawn. I was not aware of this. I hope UC2 doesn't do this, or at least does it more fluidly.

    I realy wish I had seen this before clearing that room in the worst possible order on crushing.

    ok i figured out how naughty dog can outdo themselves next game!!!!!!!

    They can make better/cooler weapons, you know differentiate one weapon from another. Not just aving three types of machine guns that feel the same (but awsome!) Some variety in weappons, kinda like resistance or ratchet and clank can make games hella fun. Also better boss fights for sure, and a more refined stealth element (less retarded enemies) and better melee system :D

    We must have played different games. The machine guns felt different to me, as far as 3 similar guns can. The GLAL(?) thing was weak as shit but fired in accurate 3 shot bursts, the AK was a general aim and spray gun and the M16 was more accurate and powerful.

    man to me, a pistol is a pistol,a machien gun is a machine gun. Simple as that, except maybe the pistol/shotgun hybrid that was cool.

    Fuuuuuuuuuuuuck
    the guardians.
    But holy shit, the train, ice caves and every other bloody setpiece is brilliant.

    Scratch that, the whole game is brilliant.
    Train boss can go fuck himself though. In the eye.

    I just faced off the
    second time you fight the guardians again in shambala

    How much longer is it? The last sets seem pretty meaty.

    So close to getting my platinum. On Ch. 20 of my Crushing run, with every trophy except the artifact ones gotten.

    I only have 45 of those, so the last trophies are going to be a huge pain in the ass. They really should have taken off some of those trophies and replaced them with something more original.

    And Antihippy,
    is the second time you face the guardians in a closed off room? Or is it out of the open?

    Either way you got about an hour left of playtime. Probably a bit less if I remember right.

    So remember me, the guy who occasionally posted about my lack of a ps3? I just heard back from my parents and, primarily because of the blu ray option, I'll be picking up a system on Black Friday! A few months late is much better than never, eh?

    It really does everything.

    Just yesterday my in-laws were bragging about how they had a Bluray player before anyone else, until my wife and I noted that they bought a Bluray player because we showed them what they looked like on our PS3.

    That. Was. Way. Awesome.

    Easily the best single player experience this generation for me. :D

    Didn't even find the boss too bad. Or at least not as crappy as I was led to believe.

    The little making of docs were cool too.

    For a twist, the treasure Drake hunts in the 3rd game should be exactly what the legends say it is.

    I would also go with that.

    Pirates and rogue armies are good enough enemies.

    Spoilers to tease you.
    Being chased by a goddamn tank in a tibetan village.

    One of the most epic mirror light puzzles. Most puzzles are pretty epic actually. The ice cave too.

    The goddamn train.

    The many faces of victor goddamn sullivan.

    For all the people just getting on board the UC2 multiplayer train...let me just drop a word of advice.

    when you see that blue circle and your teammate is being choaked in co-op arena...please remember there is such a thing as friendly fire. using a ROCKET LAUNCHER at this point on the man probably isnt the best decision!.

    (happen 3 times to me last night....).

    Why does no one ever include the convoy?
    You attack an enemy convoy by jumping from truck to truck as the enemy ends up blowing them up to take you out. When you reach the lead car, Drake finds a mounted grenade launcher on the back.

    Also, "Victor 'GODDAMN' Sullivan" is one of my favorite lines in anything ever.

    It's pretty tame since it came after the tank part.

    Which is easily one of the best parts of the game.

    As a person who thinks being chased by a tank blasting and shooting at you while crashing through a tibetan village while other mans are shooting you is awesomely intense, I have to agree to disagree.

    Not to say convoy was bad. Just not as awesome.
