That's a pretty dumb video. It says a lot that the comments on a YouTube video are smarter than the video itself.

You can debate lots of things about the two systems and we have in this very thread probably 10 times but this statement is false.Quote:

Yeah. Good thing PS1 emulation is pretty much perfect now. But knowing that the PS3s are BC with PS1 games makes that kind of moot I guess.Quote:

It's really weird - one of those things that stands out in the uncanny valley of the game.Quote:

However, the production values in the Uncharted games is amazing. Great voice work and acting, too.
Playing games is serious business.Quote:

Uncharted 3 is the answer to brown video games.
I don't understand. It's not like he kills nameless thugs. You can actually complete missions through stealth by dearming everyone. I don't see how this is any different from any swashbuckling hero (ie: Indiana Jones).Quote:

Uncharted 2 and 3 are the best games I've ever played. When people say they can't get into them, I wonder what else they are playing that they ARE getting into... Probably Gears and Halo.
Bad assumption is bad.Quote:

Was more of a joke than anything. Should have put ;)
Speaking of FUII, That's worth playing? The first was OK.
I never finished the first one, but had a blast with the second one. I think the general consensus is that its better then the first. And you can probably pick it up cheap these days.Quote:

Yeh I like playing both sides of games. I always play light first and then play dark. Although I haven't tried it in the Mass Effect series yet. I'd like to see how much of a dick Sheppard can be.
Would you mind checking steam to see how much it's running for? (blocked by work)
Amazon = $18
Goozex = 400 points (still too much)
eh?Quote:

I played the first Uncharted at my buddy's house, before I had a PS3, and I loved it. It's been on the shortlist of games to pick up, and now there's a Uncharted 1 and 2 two pack for something like 35 bucks. Very likely the next game(s) that I get.
$19.99Quote:

I can not wait for this.
Not starting a system war, just making an observation...
I've never understood why PS3 owners are so damn testy with "our system's better!" stuff.
I know every game console has their fair share of insecure dicks, but I find that any discussion anywhere (even in the work lunchroom) where someone mentions, say, really loving their 360, or digging "Halo" games, gets responses from PS3 owners like "fuckin' 'Halo' is gay - we have 'Uncharted'!" and stuff like that.
Like...really? Really?
They're almost always the ones to incite the console war competition.
I'm waiting to get too excited about Skyrim until I read something about the combat and enemy scaling. The fact that the enemies scaled with you in Oblivion to such a degree that you never felt more powerful, even after dozens of hours, and the bland combat mechanics really hindered my enjoyment of the game.
I'm hoping they've addressed these matters in some way.
This is what sold me. Dual-weilding magic and weapons. Oh, mama!

Yeah that looks epic as hell.
I just don't want to touch anything else (of course I'll make an exception for "Halo: Anniversary") until I'm done with "Dark Souls" and "Arkham City".
I also still ahve "Oblivion" on my shelf to play. I've not even touched that one yet.
Holy shit the game has Horker Meat and Sweet Rolls? SOLD.Quote:

May be time to finally take the plunge into Fantasy RPGs and relive the glory AD&D days from high school!
