If you played the demos, this should come as no surprise. I loved the original game and as you will read in Thierry's review (which I agree with 100%) Naughty Dog has outdone the original title in every way conceivable. An amazing accomplishment and possibly the new benchmark title for the PS3, and current gen games in general.

1UP's Thierry Nguyen writes,

"For me, Raiders of the Lost Ark is the perfect movie. It doesn't feature an Oscar-bait story about issues or feelings, nor does it feature a stunning performance from a mute Norwegian captured on 16mm black-and-white film. It just shows what happens when a creator with superlative skill applies his craft towards a genre he loves; Raiders is the ultimate mashup of action, adventure, romance, treasure hunting, James Bond, Uncle Scrooge, Nazis, and relics of Biblical proportions. Similarly, Uncharted 2: Among Thieves is the ultimate mashup of cover-based shooting, platforming, puzzle solving, sneaking, and character quipping. "

    So there ARE supernatural enemies! I knew they'd end up pulling that trick again. Hopefully they don't stink as much as the pirate/zombies/whatever you call 'em.

    I like that the supernatural element is back after all the hate they received it shows not only courage, but also offers up a big *bleep* you to every hater that normally gets their own way through whining. Naughty Dog have stuck to their artistic vision of what Uncharted is to them and it has worked, they have released the best game ever on the PS3. Though to comfort the blow a bit for those that may be pissed off about this revelation, not one reviewer has marked the game down for this new foray into the supernatural.. It can't be that bad though what do I care I loved the Cursed Spaniards of the first game.

      ...I don't get it. I know you're just trolling, but usually it's after someone actually makes a complaint that you pull out the horribly unrealistic remarks.

      LOL, im not trolling. i know you have some unexplained vendetta against me but now youre just making up sillyness. i was making a reference to how Sony fanboys got pissed off big time when someone dared to give Killzone 2 an 8/10. oh no! suddenly thats a bad score?

        8/10 is a perfectly decent score for Killzone 2, don't see the problem with that...

        I know exactly what you were doing. You came into the article (completely unabated, I might add) to poke fun at people for complaining about non-perfect scores even though nobody has complained about the score. That is considered trolling no matter where you are.

        I've no vendetta against you, you're just an idiot.

          wow, i was kidding dude, dont have to take it personal. A+ is of course a great score.

          i may be an idiot, but youre an asshole that just comes on Grep and picks fights with everyone he can. youre almost as bad as Hideo1 in that regard.

    I was one that liked the Spaniard humanoid creatures twist to the game so I have no objection to more of the like.

    I think people didn't like that part because too many people are too hung up on realism in games these days.

    This game must be really good for it to get such good reviews from many reviewers, really this game is alot like the Tomb Raider games, but yet Uncharted has become so popular, alot to do with it's stunning graphics, maybe it is more to do with graphics than game play, even though Uncharted has both of these.
