oh really, now we're nitpicking video games using real life logic?? in that case 95% games have the same "aberration": they're all fictional.

so what Nathan Drake gets shot at alot and live, so does every single character in any single game that involves gunplay other than Operation Flashpoint. If you take the story canonically then Nathan Drake does not suppose to get shot by these bullets at all (e.g. eye of Indra), but you don't watch it, you play it, its a shooter game and thats how shooter games play out.

Edit: Like CGI said we all know you're distasteful of Sony games, and you're entitled to your own opinion, but at least don't make comments that are overly absurd and trollish, "low expectations", seriously?? after the string of awards it won at both E3 and GamesCon???

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).

If you make a cinematic game you get cinematic rules to go along with it. Given the fact that the cutscenes are as long as a typical movie you can't skirt the basics of cinema. If your audience cannot suspend disbelief due to how the story is portrayed then it is a bad movie. Uncharted 2 only gets away with this because it is only compared against other terrible stories in other cinematic games.

really its ruining my gaming. The game is SO GOOD that i so harshly judge over games, i don't fine it fair but how can i not 

Uncharted 2 is the best game i have played that pulls off 

1. Great Story: draws you in, and no matter how hard the situation or your get lost you are constantly trying as hard as possible to see the end of the story. For example in the mountains puzzle platform section, i got lost. really for like an Hour but i still played constantly to find out what happens next. Also the part were you have to fight the 3 super mutants guys in the small area. I played it like 100 times wanting to see the end. No game has done that for me, usually i just quit and come back later. 

2. Great game play: perfectly combines plat forming, gunplay and great climatic set pieces that i never get bored and its so varied to get me constantly interested. I hate it when games have the same game play from start to finish. 

3. Great Twists: really i have never been shocked more in a game with its twists really i never saw Harry Fylin betraying me in the 1 level. And other great twists like the camera man getting shot (i was really going, leave him, leave him) until he gets shot and me happy with glee because of it. And i was absolutely shocked by the super mutants. 

The game is just so good i have played the story like 10 times and never get bored when playing it. Its a game that i will play it then a few months play it again and have as much excitement as the last play though.

Yet no game since has done that for me. Portal 2 was amazing but not on the level of UC2. And my biggest problem will be Uncharted 3. Would Uncharted 2 be so good in my mine that UC3 wont live up to the expectations.

dam you naughty dog, i cant play UC2 for ever...........or can i

That sounds like a problem to a specific player, not a problem overall. I never had such a problem.

If you make a cinematic game you get cinematic rules to go along with it.

and what exactly are "cinematic rules"?? It can be as close to a movie as it gets but its still a game and you have to play it, in order to play it you have to go along with "gaming mechanical rules". and even movies are usually far off from reality

Given the fact that the cutscenes are as long as a typical movie you can't skirt the basics of cinema.

you do realise that a movie is usually around 60-90 minutes, and video games are 6-8 hours long on average, if you count the cutscene time then majority of the games are "cinematic" , hell, MGS will be a freaking TV show.

If your audience cannot suspend disbelief due to how the story is portrayed then it is a bad movie.

true, but what if the VAST MAJORITY do believe its a good movie while a handful few don't??

Uncharted 2 only gets away with this because it is only compared against other terrible stories in other cinematic games.

in which case, name me a few good "cinematic games" that have good (and realistic) stories
