'Stunning, mind-blowing, incredible'.

We know Uncharted 2: Among Thieves is incredible, and no doubt you do too. But what do Naughty Dog's peers think?

Fellow PS3-exclusive developer Insomniac Games, the US studio behind the Resistance and Ratchet & Clank series, has spoken to VideoGamer.com at length on the game, revealing what it really thinks about Naughty Dog's effort.

"It's stunning," said Insomniac senior community manager James Stevenson.

"It seems to have an incredible sense of storytelling and adventure. The way the game looks is amazing. The density of the environments and the props and the interactions you can have with those items, from a game development perspective, is just absolutely mind-blowing."

So impressed is Insomniac with Uncharted 2, that it wants to swap PS3 development notes with Naughty Dog.

"I'm glad we're friends with those guys, so we can find out how they did it!," Stevenson said. "I'm happy for them. They deserve all the success in the world. The first game was a victim of the PS3's installed base at the time. It did well but it could have reached a much larger audience. This one's getting an audience it deserves."

So there you have it. It's not just critics who are falling over themselves to praise Uncharted 2. It's game developers, too. In this case, however, the love between the two studios isn't surprising. Both work on Sony-owned IP and are based in California, USA.

Even Bungie and Infinity Ward praised the game, too.

so uncharted 2 is a good game confirmed ????

I hope this means Insomniac will put more action in Resistance 3, rather than focus on making it look pretty. I'd give a lot for a 10-player coop, with even more enemies, bosses and whatnot to fight at the same time. With splitscreen of course!

ND definately branded their name as one of the best devs this gen/possibly ever.

i would love to hear what Turn10 has to say about the Game :D

*runs*

Turn 10 would be like..."UC2 is garbage, not a single nice looking car!  Instead the hero's just shooting up the cars" lol

PS3 exclusive developer compliments PS3 exclusive game? GOTY.

Haha. Best post I have seen all day.

Now Insomniac has some work to do to catch up. Uncharted 2 really showed devs that "same game + better graphics" isn't the way to go (as many of them do). Adding MP was something they didn't need to do, adding cinema mode and machinima mode was something they didn't have to do, but they weren't just OK with status quoing it, and made the game have a much higher replay value... hopefully other devs learn to make these drastic changes in further games in their franchises.
