Uncharted: Drake's Fortune

[Typhoid]

I know me and Dyne have it, but who else?

There's something about this game, that is just freakin' epic. It's really like you're playing a movie. The characters are fantastic, have hilarious personalities, and are sharp-witted.

Before I bought this game, I honestly knew nothing about it. But it's probably the best combination of a platformer, first person shooter, and movie I've ever played.

The aiming system for grenades is easy, even though it uses sixaxis. You hold down the aim button, and tilt the controller up or down for the angle, and then press fire. Voila. The only thing I haven't mastered is the balancing. That shit is hard.

I'm too hungover and not far enough into the game at this point to give an actual review, but I will say if you have a PS3, this is definitely a must-have.

Seriously - so good. I'll try to tear myself away from Rock Band to play more today.

So obsessed with drums >_<

As for Uncharted, I'll have to steal my friends PS3 and play it in a bit.

Received this as a Chrtistmas present...currently, I'm at Chapter 14 or 15. Great seamless blend between cinematics and gameplay, interesting storyline, gorgeous to look at. I'll probably play through this game 3 times...

That's exactly where I am in the game now, too.

What I love about it now, is the rewards system. Unlocking new game modes like flip world, and mirror world (not really sure of the difference yet?)

I can see myself playing this game over and over - and I don't do that with single player games that aren't sports.

I heard this game has a love it or hate it plot twist towards the end. Anyone know if this is true?

isn't generally the standard reaction to any plot twist?

Well, I suppose, but the person who was talking about it on a podcast that I listen to said that he was enjoying the game tremendously before the plot twist, but then after he couldn't continue to play the game. I was just curious as to what it is...

lol, he was enjoying it tremendously and then couldn't play it anymore? i wonder if the plot twist involved characters murdering his family...

That would keep me from finishing the game... well depends on which members.

I honestly can't think of a twist that would ruin a game.

Now if it were a completely different type of game at the end that I can understand. And I have heard a few people take issue with the fact it becomes more about waves of enemies near the end.

Finally got around to playing this game, and good thing it was on my day off or may have never gone to work.

I only got like 3 hrs in but boy did that 3 hrs go by fast.
Really enjoying the game.
Only beef is that some guns just don't down the enemies unless you empty like a clip into them. And headshots are nice, but not always the best solution when being surrounded by like 5-6 people.

[BreakABone]

Well, I just got to the twist or what I assume is the twist.

And thus far it has made the game a lot more enjoyable. A change of pace. More about survival.

And to be frank, this is an Indiana Jones game in disguise so it also fits in with that theme.
