[Offical]Uncharted 2: Among Thieves

[sambrentnall]

Just completed the game today. It's awesome, easily one of the best games I have every played!!

I want to go play the first one again now!

if anyone is into playing some CoOp right now hit me up on PSN and I will send you an invite, I have so far only beaten the 2nd map so still have 1st and 3rd map to play... If there are two people into it even better, can have all 3 people...

Also hurzin, sorry I did not response last night, I have a horrible habit of just leaving my PS3 on and running even if I have not intentions of playing the rest of the night and that is what happened last night. So sorry about that. (Y)

EDIT - Okay going to get some lunch, so I signed off my PS3 for a bit, but I will check back in awhile and see if anyone is interested. If not, I will just go ahead and play with randoms and see how that works out. :laugh:

Not only do I like the CoOp mode, but I really want to get my Rank up a bit so I can get better boosters for MP Elimination which is definitely my favorite mode, so CoOp is the best way to do this as far as I see.

Do that same thing, but in the chapter "The Dig".

After you get the grenades and "learn how to use them", switch to your handgun and shoot once, then punch. This part of the chapter is where a lot of enemies come to you (when Sully is sniping). You'll earn it in no time.

i have been doing exactly that on that level too. shot once then i walk up to them and i press sqwear some times it hits from the top , normal punch or the top. i got the same achevment on uncharted 1 (5 times in a row doing exactly that.)

is it just me :D

With all the resounding critical praise that Naughty Dog's Uncharted 2 has received thus far, it's good to see creative director Amy Hennig speaking up on the possibility of DLC for the game. "We're working on that now ... there will be DLC available before the end of the year," she told IndustryGamers today. Though she's not yet revealing very much on what exactly the content will entail, she did say it may include, "new maps, new characters, things like that ... some of it will be free of charge and some of it will be purchasable."

She wouldn't directly quote sales of the title thus far, but she did allow that the title is "exceeding expectations" and outselling the original game "by many, many times" -- a fact no doubt aided by the PlayStation 3's primary position among consoles on last month's NPDs. Hennig seems to embrace this head-on, referring to the confluence of events that lead to the current success of Uncharted 2 -- a hardware price drop, a handful of games being pushed back, and critical acclaim for the game -- as "serendipity." That doesn't mean the game ends in an expensive ice cream shop, right?

I so hope they fetch out more co-op maps, don't get me wrong the multiplayer is fun but this game is all about the story!

[soniqstylz]

Found out I'm getting this tomorrow as an early b'day present, so I'll be down for some co-op on Sunday.

[Remysaus]

Still didn't get it in the mail. ordered it on thehut.com 8 days ago, it was despatched on monday and it's still not here. now I want to mail them but I can't get on their site, any ideas anybody?

[DPyro]

Just a note there's a cheat in the game that lets you play crushing mode with tweaks turned on and still get the trophy.

The one changing to Hard and then changing back to Crushing? You can still get the trophy doing that?

[DPyro]

Yup.

[KoL Veteran]

Hahaha damn I didn't do that because I thought it was going to affect the trophy. :laugh:

[BoredBozirini]

Its not like the game was that hard on Crushing either.

If anybody is up for some CoOp today, I'll be online in a couple of minutes. I want to reach Level 20 today.

Uncharted 2, Second Fastest Selling PS3 Exclusive

Uncharted 2 was expected to sell a lot during releases, and it did not disappoint. The game shifted approximately 836,000 units in the first week worldwide, making it the second fastest selling PlayStation 3 exclusive title, followed closely by Killzone 2 which sold about 770,000 units in launch week. The fastest selling PS3 exclusive so far remains as Metal Gear Solid 4, which managed to sell a whopping 1.7 million units in launch week, and went on to sell almost 5 million units.

The original Uncharted managed to sell 2.62 million units throughout it's lifetime, but debuted with very disappointing sales. It sold approximately 134,000 units worldwide during launch, selling only 32,000 copies in North America during launch week. Uncharted 2: Among Thieves' 836,000 sales during launch week represent an over six-fold increase in sales from the previous game.

We hope the game manages to sell as much as (if not more than) the original Uncharted, because it definitely deserves all the praise it's getting and could be the best game released this generation.

Im online now if any one wants to join in on some co-op :-)

[SimplySchizo]

enabling cheats for trophies is pretty sad. only thing you're cheating is yourselves by doing so.

crushing was much more difficult on the first for me. but a lot of fun.

the uncharted series remains the only 2 games ive played to complete platinum.

i can proudly say i have yet to enable any tweaks.

Hey, if Naughty Dog allows us to use tweaks for the trophies, we might as well use them.

its merely an exploit. (switching difficulty back and forth after enabling your cheat of choice)

naughty dog doesnt intend for anyone to run through crushing difficulty, or any other unbeaten difficulty for that matter, for the first time using any type of tweaks/cheats.

as i said, you're only cheating yourselves out of the intended experience by doing so.

anyways,

HERE's the good folks over at naughtydog confirming DLC before the years' end.

Woah woah, hold it there. I finished my Crushing play legit. I was talking about using tweaks to get trophies like the 200 GAU kills or the 5 headshots in a row.

Either way, it doesn't matter really. Its just a virtual trophy, its worth nothing.

[KoL Veteran]

I finished Crushing legit but if i knew about it I would have used that, I don't care. I would have loved to play it with the Desert 5 and Hammer all the time.

[DPyro]

I already beat it twice so I didn't waste any time beating it on crushing. Made the game so much more fun actually :)

[master2k27]

got my platinum yay

[t0mbi]

anyone playing online right now? Ive just finished SP and am keen to try out MP

[AbandonedTrolley]

Still trying to get the platinum, I just don't look forward to the whole treasure hunt :-(

Should get it done this week at some point though.

[BoredBozirini]

The treasure hunt is uber easy (with a guide). You won't spend more than 5 hours searching for the treasures. Remember, you can go chapter by chapter, on any difficulty, and if you find all the treasures in a chapter, just quit back to the main menu and go to another chapter.

[SimplySchizo]

i could see how using a weapon cheat would be useful for a trophy as the one you stated. the 200 kill trophy was definitely a pita. that's not what was being referenced to earlier though. exploiting for game completion purposes was mentioned.

so yea, be easy tito. i wasnt pointing any fingers at you, or anyone else. just my 2cent generalization towards anyone that would use the said exploit to gain a completion trophy. :)

yea, a guide helps lots for trophy hunts! some of the locations are very well thought out and damn near impossible to find :D

[master2k27]

i did it the proper way!
