Just finished the game and WOW. Simply... WOW. This lived up to all the hype, and my own expectations. This Game is phenomenal. The ending was just great, and the final boss battle was even pretty good (I think the original was better for the boss battle).

Gunna put this in spoilereo text but here is what I did to finish off the boss in Normal Mode - I'm going to replay it and see if I can reproduce this in Hard and Extrahard modes.

After the cutscene where the dude drinks and becomes near immortal, run forward. You should see three ledges, jump to the middle one with the blue stuff on the tree, facing you, and wait for the boss to walk past. If you are in the right spot, he wont be able to hit you with his shotgun, yet if you hang in place for 30 seconds, you will be able to hang and shoot the blue stuff, damaging the boss. Just hang in that spot for 6 minutes, and hang-shoot the blue stuff when it respawns. The boss wont move from where he is, and it makes it the easiest boss fight ever.

If you guys are lost from the above, ill post a screenshot tomorrow for you of what I did and where to go :)

Welp, I just beat it.

Not a bad game.. A LIL over hyped, but I'm very satisfied with it, I got 20 or so treasures my first time through.

Beat it on Normal the first time through.

Kinda disappointed in multiplayer, back to Little Big Planet for me.

Just finished it tonight the game is such a vast improvement over the first game. The only thing I have fault with is the last chapter...

Having to fight the natives is really bloody annoying!

Grab one of their crossbows, they wall down a hell of a lot easier!

Got the game for christmas, had completed it a day later, an EPIC game. Can't wait for the 3rd!

It's like playing a god damn movie :D

Uncharted 2 Achieves Target Sales

Early in October, Arne Meyer, Senior Manager of Marketing Communications at Naughty Dog, stated in an interview with Edge Online that Naughty Dog wished to outsell the first Uncharted with Uncharted 2: Among Thieves.

At the time Naughty Dog revealed that Uncharted: Drakes Fortune had sold about 2.5 Million copies worldwide since it's release in November 2007. Well, Naughty Dog has achieved it's sales target, selling just over 2.5 Million copies in just 2 months (yes we are aware that VGChartz is not entirely reliable, but what else do we have?), rather than 2 years like the previous game.

It's great to see such a fantastic game doing well, in both recognition among the games industry and among the gamers themselves. Let's hope it continues to sell so that we can get another Uncharted game as soon as possible!

Great job Naughty Dog! :yes: :fun:

Good going (Y)

It's annoying sometimes PS3 owners don't have an attach rate like 360 owners for some of the awesome titles, but as long as goals are being met I really don't care about the figures much I just want the studios to keep having the resources to put out good titles.

    • Microsoft faces shareholder lawsuit over masking AI costs and slowing Azure growth

      It's interesting to hear that AI growth is not investor driven.
    • Here is how I fixed Windows 11 not booting after clean installation

      A few weeks ago, I had this same exact issue. Unfortunately, I didn't think of disabling the Secure Boot option in BIOS. I updated my BIOS to the latest version for my MB and it resolved the issue.
    • USB Port Optimization for best locations for devices

      By +Eternal Tempest · Posted

      I have a partial answer, when I used a multi-port usb hub I had degraded speed performance with 3 large external hard drives connected. I managed to snag a nice (yet older) USB3 based wavelink docking station cheap / used that has x6 usb 3 ports and almost doubled the speed of the external hard drives transfer rate. This looks to be a slightly upgraded model -https://ebay.io/m/LZtjTy
    • Microsoft faces shareholder lawsuit over masking AI costs and slowing Azure growth

      By Karthik Mudaliar · Posted

      Microsoft faces shareholder lawsuit over masking AI costs and slowing Azure growth by Karthik Mudaliar Microsoft is facing a class action lawsuit from shareholders who allege that the company intentionally overhyped its artificial intelligence initiatives to distract from slowing cloud revenue and an exploding infrastructure bill. The complaint was filed in a Seattle federal court by the Michigan-based City of St. Clair Shores Police and Fire Retirement System. The plaintiffs argue that Microsoft’s leadership painted an overly optimistic picture of its Copilot rollout and complex OpenAI partnership. They say that the company did this while downplaying the harsh reality that building the data centers required to power these next-generation tools requires a huge amount of capital. Back at the company's Q2 2026 earnings report from late January, Microsoft revealed that its flagship Azure cloud growth had slipped to 39% (down from 40% the prior quarter) and guided investors to expect a further deceleration to 37% or 38% for the first three months of 2026. Now, under normal circumstances, a slight percentage point drop in cloud growth is a minor operational hiccup. But the Redmond giant paired that guidance with $37.5 billion in quarterly capital expenditures. This figure, which is a 66% year-over-year surge, blew past any analyst estimates at that time. Much of this amount went into buying high-priced GPUs and custom silicon that were required to train and run large language models. This is why the market reacted violently and just a day after its earnings call on January 29, the company's stock plummeted 10%, and wiped out $357 billion of capital in just a trading session. Microsoft is doing better now, though. Its Q3 2026 results showed its run rate from its AI business was hitting $37 billion, proving that enterprise demand for its infrastructure is very real and continuing to scale. Microsoft isn't the only company pouring billions into infrastructure for the AI boom. We've seen most Big Tech companies, including Amazon and Google, also get the results of these investments with stronger-than-ever growth and increased income. via Reuters
