Tell me the truth, Foxdog, do you work for Microsoft?
Wow! The PSP is a beast of a handheld. Great graphics. If the gameplay lives up to the visuals it is going to be one fine game.
@ Kain81
That was hilarious. I hope ravinshield gets the message.
Yep, Uncharted is a fantastic game. Actually I can say that it is my favorite action adventure game of all time. It was pure bliss.
If it weren't Naughty Dog I might be a little apprehensive, but it IS Naughty Dog so...no worries whatsoever.
The high-quality sound, multiple language options (I'm bilingual) and tons of extras in games like Uncharted and Heavenly Sword have already convinced me of the value of Blu-ray.
It's nice to have that extra space there, period. Not every game will need it, but it's there for those who do.
I thought Uncharted's controls and cover system were better than Gears, so I think it could make for an awesome multi-player mode. It didn't need a multiplayer mode, but it will certainly be appreciated.
Why would it be any harder to make a multi-player mode for Uncharted than for any other action game? Face it, multi-player modes are just an excuse to run around and shoot people. Does it really matter whether it's locusts and COG or mercenaries, treasure hunters and pirates? ...
I agree, Uncharted was one of the best single-player experiences I have ever had. But Naughty Dog are so talented and I feel pretty secure in saying that if Naughty Dog have included multi-player it is because they knew they could do something good with it, without sacrificing the single-player campaign.
I tend to be a little more of a single-player kind of gamer, but nobody can deny that adding a quality multi-player component to an already awesome campaign mode will only help ...
@ ravingshield
You said, "well if the quality of the games are so great why the f@@@ dont ya buy them stupid".
Hmm...that's a real thought-provoking question...
Then again why is the Wii totally raping the 360 in sales? I really don't have the answer... Why does the mass market often prefer crap over quality? That is a question for the ages.
In the meantime, Uncharted has sold several million copies and I don't know how that can ...
It is absolutely, incredibly baffling that anybody could claim Killzone 2 was the most hyped game of the generation. As others have pointed out Halo 3 was hyped vastly more. It's not even close.
But even games like GTA4 had more hype than Killzone 2.
Wake up to the real world please.
Yeah, and it wasn't just the advertisements and insane marketing blitz. Halo 3 was a mass market fad--similar to the Wii--and that, more than anything else, helped it to sell the numbers it did.
Halo 3 is a good shooter (in the top 10 for sure), but in my opinion the numbers it sold were completely out of proportion to the quality of game actually on offer.
On the other hand, it's not trendy to play Killzone 2, it's not a fad; it's simply a really good game that is ...
@ solidsnakus
Danja is right. Sorry, but that was just an ignorant comment, solidsnakus.
Even the astronomical hype that Halo 3 brought with it didn't allow it to do too much better in Japan. Compared to the way Halo 3 sold in the rest of the world, its sales in Japan were nothing. The Japanese simply aren't very big fans of FPSs in general. These numbers for Killzone 2 are entirely respectable.
Yeah? So what!? The Wii and the DS are destroying everything else over there, so that must mean they are the bestest game systems ever, right?
Some of my least favorite games and consoles have sold ridiculous high numbers (Wii, GTA4, etc). This goes to show that the mainstream market is not driven primarily by quality software and hardware, but by hype and fad. Very sad trend if you ask me.
You're entitled to your opinion, of course, but I am the exact opposite. I find Killzone 2 to be a more enjoyable experience than COD4.
Don't get me wrong COD4 is a great game; it's just that I am kind of sick of real-world, historic based shooters. The settings are so dull to me and I don't like the political baggage that they bring. I enjoy sci-fi shooters like Killzone 2 and Gears of War 2 so much more.
The mechanics of COD4 are damn good, but the setting and c...
I love both my consoles, but I think it is pretty obvious by the way many 360 fanboys are acting that they somehow feel threatened by Killzone 2.
But all this talk of sales is making me sick. If 360 fanboys really care so much about sales they should show a little consistency and begin to worship at the feet of the Wii. After all, in terms of sales the Wii is stomping the 360 into the dust. So, it's obvious that sales are not what really matter; it's only a stupid fanboy talki...
The game is selling well enough. The game is excellent and anybody who is even remotely interested in shooters should definitely check it out.
Personally it is my favorite shooter at the moment. The game is saturated with atmosphere, looks mindblowingly good, has amazing AI, and is addictive as hel-l online.
If it comes out in September I know it will be because Naughty Dog have made the game they wanted to make. If it comes out later I don't care. I am prepared to wait a little longer for a game of this quality.
I absolutely loved the first one and can't wait for this follow up, but I want naughty dog to take as much time as they need to make the game great.
I don't care if it comes out in September or December I just want them to take the time they need to make the game great, which I have no doubt that they will do--Naughty Dog are great.
I am getting it no matter when it comes out. I LOOOVED the first one.
I don't think Elena or maybe Sully will play as big a role this time around, but I am sure that the will make an appearance.
I have faith that Naughty Dog know what they are doing and that it will be another awesome narrative and a memorable adventure.
Can't wait.
If by "moving over to the PS3" they mean 360 gamers selling their 360s and switching exclusively over to the PS3 I don't think most people should do that.
Obviously some people are doing that, but I think smart gamers get both consoles because there are great games on both consoles and both consoles offer some nice multimedia features.
