No I meant treasures relating to Marco Polo, not Drake himself.

You'd think he'd find something a little warmer to wear.

Well seeing how he's holding on to a wrecking train, and then bleeding. I don't think he's out there exactly by choice.

Same here, but I'm also adding Killzone 2 to that list.

I can't wait to play Uncharted 2, Uncharted is one of my favorite games. I hope they don't stray too much from the style/gameplay of the first one.

I'm a huge fan of Uncharted. It's one of my favorite console games ever. The gameplay and cover system are flawless. Granted it took the cover system idea from Gears of War, it approved upon it greatly. Even the main Gears of War creator disgruntingly agreed Uncharted had a much improved cover system than Gears.

As much as I love Uncharted, I feel they missed a golden opportunity to add multiplayer. The gameplay is too much fun to be wasted on AI. I want to play against other humans!

I will buy Uncharted 2 regardless, but I will be HIGHLY disappointed if they don't have any kind of online multiplayer options included.

Gears of War took the concept of shooting aliens with guns from Buck Rogers. So, it all balances out in the end.

And, I couldn't care less if there wasn't a multiplayer component. I just want another rip roaring single player tale with Drake, Elana and Skully.

I've seen others say this as well. I just can't comprehend the lack of interest in having multiplayer. It adds so much value to a game.

To some Multi player is a must have. Too me Multi player tends to bring out the worse in a game with griefers, cheaters, hackers, not too mention online connection, server problems..etc. For ND to add multi player they will just be opening themselves up for a mountain of complaints and bitching and moaning. Stick to the SP and make it epic (not that Uncharted wasnt epic) There are other Multi player games out there. IMHO

Not only that, but the cover system was taken from a game called Kill.switch.

let me just paint you a picture for a second:

*your screen goes completely blank*

*you hear over your headset random giggles(likely kingshorty)*

then, when you're promted that the game is ready, you yell into your mic, "MARCO!!" and out of your left rear speaker you hear, "POLO!!"
and you follow the sound until you catch someone! how awesome would that be? you know... because the game is gonna be about marco polo... and if there's a multiplayer, um, they could have... you know... marco polo...

ok so it's stupid, but maybe you elect to be elena in a bikini and stare at the character select screen rotating the character until you're ready you pervs!

I'd say go for MP, but go for something different.

Forget true MP DM, CTF, ect, and go for some kind of 4-6 player MP Coop.

One player can be Drake in going through the story mode, while the AI enemies can be taken over by other's online and work along side AI enemies, sorta like L4D. At other times, when the story calls for it, there could be a computer controlled sidekick, that could also be MP controlled.

It could work, but it would have to be done right.

I agree 100%!!! Uncharted should remain a single player experience.

I personally have grown tired of competitive multiplayer. I actually like it when a game has a great online Co-op mode (SR2 has a great co-op mode and I prefer the COD:WAW co-op over the competitive mutli-player mode)

Yeah, you're right... Winback was probably the original "stop'n pop" shooter. I had read somewhere that Gears was "inspired" by Kill.switch though.

I havn't seen anyone mention the writing yet. The gameplay was fun, cover system was good, sometimes frustrating camera angles... but the writing/dialogue was top notch. There were several times that I actually laughed out loud, and overall the characters were very well done and significantly added to the quality of gameplay.

I certainly hope they keep the same team for the sequel. You switch up the writers and you could have something as bad as... well... let's see. What sequel that is out there could I possibly use as an example of how much better the original was... hmm......

You lost me at "screen screen." I don't have one of those, so I can't relate.

Just a couple notes.

I believe fortune was from wheel of fortune originally released for Nintendo.

Second whoa whoa whoa on the remain single player, they need to add co-op badly, passing the controller back and forth is lame if you want to enjoy this game with a buddy, its so ps1ish.

Every game has single player and you can choose to play by yourself(with yourself?), but that doesnt mean others wouldnt enjoy co-op if drake has a side kick. Its the logical next step.

There is a huge difference between Multi player (which is the direction some people want the game to go) and Co-op. I could see 2 player Co-op offline like Resistance Fall of Man. But Multi player online..I'll pass.

Typo then. They cant really hold an awards show for games potentially two years old.

So CGI, or not CGI? This teaser looked like a possible combination of both.

Drake looked pretty much as he did in Uncharted's cutscenes....

If they can get snow to look that good.... wow.


If I remember correctly Uncharted was first shown as a target render, yet the game looked much better with a gritty art style in the end. Let's hope for a repeat!
