I will be buying this eventually I think.  Edge couldn't stop wanking over it this month...but they didn't comment on MP.  Slightly off topic, but I think I am going to cancel my Edge subscription.  I don't seem to be as interested as I used to be.

Just played up to the stealthy first bit, and its unbelievably good. The fx theyve got on Drakes face to make it appear more skinlike is near as what you get in movies now. Very good so far. That intro is the mutts nutts too :)

Probably the best start to any game I've played.

You know, I cant even remember the last boss, what was it? That scar guy?

The things they do with the 3d environments  in this game is one of the things I loved about it, the train wreck, the collapsing tower/bridge, the building collapsing with you in it.

Yep, Russian bloke. You basically run around in a big circle shooting bombs until he falls over 3-4 times. It's crap because it's not hard, but time consuming. You have to run a fair bit to leave a big enough gap for him to catch up and rape you. Died twice because I hadn't run for five minute straight to open up the gap. What a shit boss.

Oh yeah, running round what looks like avatar, shooting those things on the walls, I remember. Yeah bit run of the mill that. The rest of the game more than makes up for it.

There's a demo for this on the store. Is that new?

I did start downloading it but then I stopped because:
A.) It might be a bit spoilery and I'm almost certainly going to get the game anyway
B.) It's three bloody gigabytes!

Downloaded the demo. Best graphics I have ever seen ever. Too bad I suck at shooting.

Just finished this after only 2 (albeit long) sessions.

What a game. They've taken out everything I hated about the first one and replaced it with more of what I thought was awesome. And then polished it up some. The story was even better than the first one too and the graphics are some of the most stunning I've ever seen.

I still cant get over how good this game is. Without a doubt it's worth all the 10/10 scores it got.

My all time favourite game would probably be Half Life 2 for the way it perfectly balances the puzzle/objective sections with balls to the wall action sequences with you in the centre. For me, Uncharted 2 comes closer to this than any game since. Maybe it even surpasses it. I'm not even sure if I'm looking back at HL2 with slightly rose-tinted specs and that I should be promoting Uncharted 2 to the top of my list.

It's rare for me to replay a game so soon after completing it (especially with the backlog I currently have) but all I can think about at the moment is going through it all again.

They've certainly set the bar very high for Uncharted 3.
