Uncharted 2 is the sequel to the game Uncharted: Drake's Fortune. Uncharted 2 follows Nathan Drake, a treasure hunter/thief in an adventure to find the secret of Marco Polo's expedition. The game starts you out with you having no idea what's going on. Eventually, you find your way off a train that was hanging perilously off a cliff. You pass out and your life flashes before your eyes, portrayed as cutscenes and gameplay. Midway though the game you reach the same part as the beginning, only a few changes are made (Stronger enemies, level lasts longer.) I'll leave the rest of the game for you to find out.
The multiplayer in this game is great. There are a bunch of different modes, ranging from co-op to deathmatches. You can change your character depending on what side you are on in a deathmatch/other competetive mode. You can also buy perks for yourself, which change how you character plays (Increased accuracy for blindfire, more ammo held) This changes the playing fields. When you reach a high enough level, you can also buy medals of honor. These downgrade your character but allow you to get more cash from kills.
The cover system felt akward to me, because sometimes you wanted to just get out of cover in general, but switched covers instead. Sometimes you want to step off the cover but go into a gallomping leap instead.
The enemies vary, but soon begin to feel the same. Seriously, HOW MANY TIMES DO YOU HAVE TO KILL THE WHITE SUIT RED BERET DUDE!?!? Not to say that the enemies don't make the game hard, but also not saying each and every enemy has to be different. A bit more variety in the looks would be nice.
After you have beaten the game, you can play through on the same dificulty again and be able to buy weapons that you choose. You can also wear a skin to change how you look. it may also change how you sound. Playing as an enemy does not change enemy attitudes. It just is there to make you look cooler.
Overall: 9.5/10 |

| And there are like 2-3 minor spoilers. Not enough to ruin the game though. I tried to keep the spoilers at a minimal. |

| It rocks! PS3 exclusives are usually the best games out there. Not just PS3 exclusives though. Exclusives in general. And MW2 isn't exclusive. |

OH PLEASE DONT START A CONSOLE WAR! --------------------------------------------- Also, Uncharted 2 is a 9.8 in my opinion. It would of been a 10 but I just didnt like the multiplayer. |

| The multiplayer is...okay. But the single-player is the best ever made. |
