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.

Seems like Naughty Dogs hard work has paid off

UNCHARTED 2: Among Thieves took the Interactive Achievement Awards by storm, grabbing ten awards, the most for any one title. It also won "Overall Game of the Year" for 2009, which is the second time PlayStation has been awarded this coveted honor by the academy.

UNCHARTED 2: Among Thieves has also garnered more than 150 other industry awards, has over 1.5 million online users worldwide, and has surpassed 3.5 million copies sold worldwide ? the fastest selling first-party title for PlayStation.

    • EA launches in-game advertising platform for brands to "connect with audiences"

      By Big John Studd · Posted

      Yeah, this is absolutely nothing new and EA have done it before. Burnout Paradise, released in 2008, had dynamic advertising billboards that were updated via the internet and targeted people based on location and what EA knew about them from their profile. It was particularly notable for the fact that the Obama presidential campaign ran ads in the game, in an attempt to reach a younger audience who didn't watch broadcast TV any more. It was by no means the first though. Battlefield 2142 from 2006 had the same thing. In fact, Neowin wrote a story about it back then. https://www.neowin.net/news/ba...-in-game-ads-clarification/
    • Apple MacBook Neo is a blessing for Windows users, here's why

      This is obviously aimed at the education where Apple has lost so much ground to Chromebooks in the last few years, but unless they come up with a comparable management system for education why would anyone switch back?
    • Samsung is shutting down yet another app used by millions

      Here's how we arrived at that claim: Note that this is just Play Store downloads. The app is also available on the Galaxy App Store

      By +Edouard · Posted

      Google Play states the app had more than 50 million downloads. What other metric do you suggest should be used?
    • what other retro software do yall use

      MSN defined our generation in some ways, kind of like Snapchat and TikTok have done for future generations. I have great memories of the MSN era in the late 90s / early 2000s. In the UK everyone seemed to come home from School and go on MSN for the evening. We didn't really have mobile phones then, so other than going and knocking on your friends door it was a totally new way of interacting with people. I also loved how I could talk to people I’d met playing online games from around the world. Inviting people to NetMeeting and messing about with the shared white board and webcams was pretty fun, even if webcams only ran at a couple of fps over dial-up. All the random things you could do with MsgPlus! were really fun - I suspect that made a few people jump with /shello randomly blasting Mr Hankey out their speakers! Maybe I’m just nostalgic, however I do feel the internet and computers were more fun back then.
