Who wouldn't be influenced, Uncharted 2 is perfect.

Lord_Ranos5886d ago

Uncharted franchise is among the best gaming has to offer.

raztad5886d ago (Edited 5886d ago )

Uncharted 2 is amazing and very well deserving to be a source of inspiration. The stealth in UC2 was simple but effective and helped a lot to make the game more variated.

SCC is receiving very nice scores and game is looking really fun. Definitely worth a try.

AAACE55886d ago

Uncharted 2 was a well crafted game! I hope alot of other developers take notes and step their game up. Especially the one who makes a game that sounds like 'Boom Hater'.

Commander TK5886d ago

I wouldn't say perfect, but not very far from it.

dangert125886d ago

uncharted inspired evry1
even sega wen they made the dreamcast =/

NeoBasch5886d ago

I could tell. It's greater because of it. I can't wait to pick this up. Love me some cinematic gaming!

Cevapi885886d ago

and people say that UC2 hasnt redefined the Third Person and Action Adventure genre....good one game journalists...good one

WildArmed5886d ago

I really liked the SC:C game mechanics (expect for the spoon feeding they did.. everything was very easy)
I love the cover to cover movement.

I hope we can get hand to hand combat in the retail version..
I dont like just hitting B to kill the guy.. even if he saw me already.
I liked U2's combat mechanics... if he didn't see u, 1 hit kil.. otherwise combot ime!

ThanatosDMC5886d ago

I just saw the trailer of Conviction and it doesnt even come close to how awesome Uncharted 2 is graphically. You can also see how the textures are in Conviction compared to U2.

forcefullpower5886d ago

You can definitely see from the intro to the games. The bloke looks like sully from uncharted. All my mates pissed themselves laughing when they saw it.

All I said in my reply that was deleted below was that SC:C is a timed exclusive and that it is also coming to PS3, which is something that has become fashionable this gen.

I also informed mattygamefreak that instead of replying in a new thread, he could just reply to his own by clicking on the reply link in the lower right hand corner of his original post. How is any of that considered a violation of the gamer zone. I was trying to be helpful and informative, but then again this is N4G... carry on.

....Lara Croft should be saying "You're welcome, Nathan."

boodybandit5886d ago (Edited 5886d ago )

Tomb Raider and Uncharted have very little in common other than they are both treasure hunters. If anything, Lara Croft should thank Indiana Jones. See how easy and equally silly that can be done?

Obama5886d ago

Tomb raider has a very different game play mechanic compared to Uncharted. The only common ground they share is the fact that Nathan and Lara are both treasure hunters.

Is a big reason I know this game will be tons of fun. SCC should be awesome.

Assassin Creed5886d ago (Edited 5886d ago )

Patrick Redding, game director for Splinter Cell: Conviction, has told OXM:

"We paid attention to everything from Riddick to Max Payne. Obviously we took a good, heavy look at the way Uncharted works too. It's not just about production value, a lot of it is looking, at the lowest level, what the player is going to spend his time doing."

AND THE RESULT WAS I MIDCORE GAME LOL.

NOTES:-

Uncharted 2: WON 150 AWARDS AND GAME OF THE YEAR.

Splinter Cell: Conviction:WILL WIN 1 AWARD(FLOP OF THE YEAR)

otherZinc5886d ago

That crap stealth in Uncharted 2 was ridiculous & UBI copied because the fools that rate that games talked of the greatness of U2 when it was garbage.

U2 didn't pickup the dead bodies & didn't get criticized & the fools at UBI ruined my game Splinter Cell by copying that garbage because they thought it was ok! DAMN!

Brklynty15886d ago

You must be an unfortunate Sega Saturn only owner, aren't ya?

Uncharted 2 Is the Most Important PlayStation Exclusive of All Time

In a list of games that defined the PlayStation 3, Uncharted 2: Among Thieves would certainly be one of the top contenders. The blockbuster sequel to 2007’s Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune not only received critical acclaim and became a massive hit for Sony’s third console when it was released 15 years ago on October 13th, 2009, but it also cemented Naughty Dog’s future as a developer of cinematic, story-driven action-adventure games as opposed to its history of colorful platformers like Crash Bandicoot and Jak and Daxter from previous PlayStation generations. To this day, Uncharted 2 stands as one of the PS3’s best exclusives and one of the most important PlayStation games of all time.

gold_drake561d ago

it was pretty good. especially the multiplayer

KyRo561d ago

I loved this era on multiplayer games from Sony. People used to call the modes tacked on multiplayer but they were enjoyable. I loved Factions even more. I'm Still gutted that the second one isn't coming out.

-Foxtrot561d ago

Yeah, that one game where it not only has an amazing single player but the multiplayer was also just as good.

A fresh a breath air with it's more "skill focused, less is more" multiplayer in a time during COD fever where every other game with online was trying to be like it.

Shame NaughtyDog eventually did do COD like things with Uncharted 3 and 4, they ruined what made the original so good. It become an over the top arcade fest in the end.

Inverno561d ago

Ironic cause the MP was basically Halo, and Bungie helped on the technical side of things too. MP was more simple back then, I've said this before but I played U2 MP religiously. I sucked at it like you have no idea, but mah gawd did I have so much fun. Can't find an MP game that hooked me like U2s these days. Then Factions came along and while it had its problem I found new religion with it. Agh damn it why did they cancel Factions 2 bruhh.

gold_drake561d ago

i had so much fun too, played almost every night with mates or cousins baha

Relientk77561d ago

It is for sure my favorite game in the series. It's such a blast to play. The train levels still hold up and are fun as hell as well as the entire game.

RaidenBlack561d ago (Edited 561d ago )

Still remember the first gameplay video ... shooting the chasing truck and then the beautiful visuals & details whilst traversing the dilapidated Nepal streets ... perfection
Too bad Sony never ported the trilogy to PC ...

RaiderNation561d ago

I would argue it's God of War.

darthv72561d ago

I'll say, the PS3 really did sequels better than people give it credit for. Resistance 2, Uncharted 2, Motorstorm Pacific Rift, Infamous 2... all were better than their initial offerings and still hold up to this day.
