AWESOME GAME!
This is an amazing game. Back in 2017, I was playing inFAMOUS and I looked at the back of the booklet and there it was: gaming gold, Uncharted 2: Among Thieves. I had already played the first Uncharted but didn't know that there were sequels. I ran to EB Games and bought Uncharted 2 and 3 for my PS3 and noticed the 4th game. Luckily I had a PS4 so I got it. Out of all of them, Uncharted 2 had the best action story of all time. It's been out for 11 years, and still one hell of a game. It had cinematic photography and an amazing story that only the greatest movies could only envy. Nathan Drake, unlike the most video game characters, (Not going to name anyone but... TOMB RAIDER!) Nathan Drake felt pain, he was realistic, he got scared. Naughty Dog made something epic. And it will be the greatest forever. It's sure to be a classic with Space Invader's Super Mario Bros., and Pac-Man. It is the greatest game of all time. It was a GREAT come-back to the first game considering Drake's Fortune was not off to a good start. 5 Star's.
Uncharted 2: Among Thieves is the second title in the action/adventure video game series. It was released for the PlayStation 3 in 2009, and re-released for the PlayStation 4 in 2015.
The story follows lead protagonist Nathan Drake, who is approached by two former associates asking for his help. They're looking for an old oil lamp which is said to reveal the location of the Cintamani Stone, an artifact from the ancient civilization of Shangri-la. Nate is double-crossed along the way, but he continues the search for Shangri-la with friends Sully and Elena.
The gameplay is the same as the previous title. You play as Nathan, wielding different weapons to take down enemies, the variety and difficulty of which has increased in this game. You must climb around different areas in order to advance to your destination, and there are several puzzles to solve along the way.
Although the first game introduced a new genre of blockbuster film-like video games, Among Thieves set the bar way higher. The opening scene defies all expectations of what a video game is -- the directing, the graphics, the story. It's groundbreaking in every sense, and even those who don't enjoy video games would probably enjoy watching this game in the same way that they would enjoy watching a film.
The new characters are a great addition, particularly Chloe, who is essentially a female version of Nate. The villain is probably the most evil and vicious out of all the games in the series. The graphics are truly stunning, with the winter environments inspiring absolute awe. There are very few bad things I can say about this game.
I would recommend this to any video game fan, and if you don't play games, I would still recommend sitting down and watching it with someone who does.
