All the good looks, production values and positive reviews in the world can’t change the fact that Uncharted 2: Among Thieves is nothing more than a liberal borrower of ideas. So many games and movies are derived from in the most brash and unimaginative way it’s ridiculous. Indiana Jones? That’s there. Tomb Raider? Happily raided. Gears of War? In like Flynn. And as if it isn’t bad enough they did this one time, Naughty Dog had to come back and ...

Naughty Dog has been working its proverbials off getting great DLC and multiplayer updates to Uncharted 2: Among Thieves month after month and for that we are eternally grateful, but there's plenty more to come.

From December 24 to December 27, any cash or medals won in Uncharted 2 multiplayer will be doubled, which I an excuse for sneaking out of a family get-together that is unlikely to work but has to be worth giving a go anyway. There have been a lot of these bonus XP ‘events’ recently in various games. It’s almost as if there’s been one game sucking up everyone else’s players since about… to pick a date off the ...

Spike TV in the US hosted its annual Video Game Awards (VGAs) this weekend and Uncharted 2: Among Thieves was the clear winner taking away three prizes on the night, including the most prestigious Game Of The Year award.

Sony Computer Entertainment America has produced this mini-documentary featuring interviews with the three top guys in its music production department. The two main points of discussion are Uncharted 2 and God Of War III, and it’s interesting to hear how much thought, cost and effort goes into the soundtracking of a triple-A game these days. Things have certainly come on along way from Manic Miner’s endless stuttering rendition of In The Hall Of The Mountain King....

We never thought it would get to a point in our lives where we were excited by the prospect of incremental firmware updates. Not enough to write a news piece on them, and certainly not enough to hastily take a screengrab from a video to illustrate said story. Nevertheless, that's what has become of us, and it's all down to the fact that Facebook integration has been confirmed for the next firmware update on PS3. The update not only ...

While everyone goes a bit mental for that shooty bang bang game with contemporary battling on it, we like to think we have an appreciation for things that came out more than a few days ago. So it is with pride in our bosom that we report Uncharted 2: Among Thieves has broken the one million sales mark. So it took more than a day, but not every game is Modern Warfare 2, is it? The news was announced by Sony's ...

The ESRB – that’s the American games ratings board, like their equivalent of PEGI – has listings on its website for four pinball games on the PSP themed around various Sony games, namely Uncharted, PAIN, Hot Shots Golf (that’s Everybody’s Golf to us Europeans) and High Velocity Bowling. All of the Pinball Heroes titles are rated suitable for Everyone, with PAIN carrying a warning for ‘Comic Mischief’. They also all carry a synopsis of their ...

Modern games are known for their tendency to aim for the spectacular, the blockbuster and the very-much-Hollywood. While we come to expect it from a lot of titles - Uncharted 2, Modern Warfare 2, God of War 3 et al - we didn't see this one coming. Modnation Racers will have a story by Hollywood writers. On the scale of 'one-to-huh?' we have to rank this as a firm 'huh?'. The news was revealed on this month's edition of Qore, the subscriber's-only ...

If you're like us then you're stinging about Gran Turismo 5's delay into next year. However, all is not lost as we, you - everyone has the chance to play the game as a part of Sony's PlayStation House tour.

If ...
