| freebs2 said: UC2 was a good game but it's very far form perfect I whould give it an 8.5, maybe a 9 counting the multiplayer.... the prodution standards are on top level but I don't understand why the gameplay is considered so good....the platfrom parts are almost "on-rails", there is no air control or timing involved. (except maybe a couple of exceptions) The action parts felt to me like a poor version of Gears Of War, with a lower variety of enemies and weapons, less precise controls and worse level design um... no (in GeOW, when the games get more difficult it generally means more and stronger enemies, in UC2 it usually mean less fewer covers, not to mention that in UC2 also entirely untrue. What is generally construes, is more complicated environments with enemies coming from more angles; requiring better tactics and swifter deaths, when you arrive in a new area, often you die the 1st time because you don't know where enemies are coming from I did not have this issue when playing on crushing, that's something that never happens on GeOW). |
In terms of raw shooting and off-line co-op, Gears of War 2 edges it, but Uncharted 2 literally wins in every other area. The reason its gameplay is the best on the market is because of the great level design, and the way traversal gameplay and shooting are melded together to create a much more tactical and interesting experience
Add into that the best graphics on consoles, the best story with the best characters and the near perfect pacing, and you have the best game ever. It really does spoil every other game, especially with its really addictive multiplayer, which ND are supporting really well with things like the lab and twists on classic game modes, such as snipers and pistoles, my favourite online game mode
In short, Uncharted 2 just wins over every other game
