But that doesn't address the point. 10/10 implies the game is perfect. In fact, in many cases they say "perfect". But it can't be perfect if it has flaws.

Things like graphics and "fun level" are subjective so I can understand giving it a perfect score even if those two aren't the best ever, but AI problems and camera issues generally are not.

GameSpot gave it a 9.5, and given the other reviews that seems fair. It is very, very good, maybe the best game this gen so far, but it's not perfect.

I agree 100%, especially with the statement "Everything is flawed. Nothing is perfect. If The Godfather isn't a 10/10, what is?"

I like the game but still not really my cup of tea, I will probably will pick it up on sale.

I ran into a few "connection error" incidents while playing and I wondering how to read the signal strength?

Mine is always brown in colour, while others have a green or red signal bar.

Is it normal?

thanks

I really enjoyed the original Drakes, so I downloaded the new Uncharted 2 demo. I must be missing something. In the demo, there doesn't seem to be anything to do, other than pick up different weapons. There is no enemy, nor any puzzles. I am not interested in the multiplayer option. Is this a game that I can play by myself?

QuickSilver · 2009-10-13, 12:26 PM

The demo is MP only. There is most definitely an SP campaign and one that is regarded to be one of the best of all time.

DenisMcG · 2009-10-13, 12:49 PM

Thanks, I was wandering around like an idiot. I figured that I must have scared everyone away.

Dell has screwed me over! Mine still hasn't shipped even! Gah!

At least a sympathetic co-worker gave me an extra coupon for a free multiplayer item/power from EB Games.

I already traded in 3 games for it but can't pick it up until I get home in Nov!

On chapter 3. Found it very very hard to stop playing last night. If this game is not GOTY then I do not know what a developer has to do to win the award. Truly amazing.

This has got to be one of the funniest videos I have seen in a while

Got it yesterday and played it all day. UNBELIEVABLE!!! Made it to chapter 22 on hard before I put it away. Just couldn't put the controller down. GORGEOUS...ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS!!! And the controls are as smooth as butter.

This is the best single player game I have played so far this generation. The multiplayer is lacking in the deathmatch department. Needs a hardcore mode. Co-op is very fun though.

For all the pundits out there who do not think any game is worthy of a 10 out of 10, this is closest I have seen so far.

Best game on the PS3 in my opinion. Amazing animations. I love the snow effect when he walks in it, or wades through the water. Uncharted 2 is what every next gen console game should look like. This is true HD gaming

Dioneo · 2009-10-15, 11:42 AM

I think IGN got it right by giving it a 9.5. GoTY contender for sure.

Youtube tag usage FTW!
