      It isn't as hard as people say. It is tough but fair. Like a good woman / mistress / goat.

            Recently picked this up again to do the same this weekend - super excited to experience it all again.

              Just completed this again myself over the past week and it was every bit as engrossing as it was on release. Really is a classic game and fully deserving of every bit of praise it gets.

              Decided to create a fresh profile for this attempt so everything started from scratch. Much better treasure completion this time (75/100) and found the Strange Relic. Hopefully can get the rest but the majority are hidden much better than they were in Drake’s Fortune. In the first game, for the majority you just had to make sure you checked every corner/ledge with very few genuinely ‘hidden’. Much trickier here with some genuine secret areas you need to hunt out. I don’t know how I only got 2 out of 8 on monastery. Thought I scoured that place pretty well.

              Plan to start on Hard tonight which will hopefully get me the remaining treasures/medals then can have a focussed Crushing run for Platinum trophy.

                I find this dull. I've done a few chapters, and it's been utterly boring for about 3/4 of it. My problem is while the story and cutscenes are decently done, for a game, they're ultimately not that important when it comes to the gameplay. Which is pretty average as cover based shooters go. It's sort of 50 cent/Army of Two class - the weapons are rubbish, the AI irritating and most of the combat seems devoid of any point other than to slow you down. I'd rather Gears of War, which has solid combat and a dodgy story to the other way round. Doesn't matter how nice your cutscenes are, if the game is average it'll always be average. Also, some of the puzzles are hideously game like. Rotating mirrors to deflect light beams? Really? REALLY?

                7/10 game dressed in 9/10 clothes.

                  Not that I am trying to defend the game but your words to not match your 7/10.

                  Are you being Controversial for the sake of it...? be honest now because you describe a stinking game then go and give it a good score!

                    To be honest I played this at a time when I wasn't enjoying gaming.

                    I can sort of agree with what Calvacade is saying because of that. I started on Hard and found it to be more of a chore than I was expecting.

                    A good game but not amazing. Before I say any more I am going to repurchase it (maybe today) and go and play through it again to make sure.

                      After reading his comments I was expecting him to put 5/10 or something.

                        The number 3 is really trending right now.

                          I'm always controversial for the sake of it. It's still aright. It's not Kane and Lynch or anything.

                          Surely you know the power of 7/10?

                          As I sat on the sofa reading EDGE magazine
                          You turned off Eastenders and turned to me
                          We'd been married 15 years or more
                          When you took my hand, clasped it in yours
                          You asked me if I loved you yeah
                          I said, babe, I'll love you forever
                          You looked at me defiantly then
                          And said, “Well what would you give me out of ten?”
                          There was a moment that I sat thinking
                          I said I'd probably give you a seven
                          I saw your face, your anger raw
                          I protested that seven was a decent score
                          I don't give out 9s willy nilly
                          And a 10 would redefine femininity
                          I class an average as a 5
                          I was lucky I made it out of there alive

                              Basically the internet is a playground of self promotion for me neil2k.

                              Don't worry, I'll photo myself with croissant shoulder pads when I get a moment.

                              To summarise. Uncharted 2 - Freedom Fighters class gameplay, straight to DVD class cutscenes with delusions of grandeur, but some quite attractive graphics and fairly imaginative set pieces. Overrated in my opinion.

                                With this threads revival and MW2 being pretty much done for me I went back to this for the online and I can see what you mean about the gunplay in Gears being done better. There's a sluggish timing to the animation of it in this compared the the more point to point nature of Gears. That said, it's probably the only thing Gears has over this. Plus, everytime I run I don't have to watch a close up of a steroid junkies ass shaking
