Blood… blood? A lot of blood. A lot of my blood!

-Nathan Drake. First lines of Uncharted 2 – Among Theives

I’m 20 minutes into Uncharted 2 – Amongst Theives and I’m thinking of sending the jerks over at Krome, makers of the insipid Clone Wars – Heroes of the Republic a copy so that they can learn how to actually write/design/develop a game.

The first ten minutes is the best tutorial run through I have ever experienced in a game. As you play along, fans of Uncharted (one) note that nothing has changed in the game play as flashbacks scenes as to how Drake winds up in his latest adventure are juxtaposed over the action. Brilliance!

There’s a commercial for U2-AT that suggests the game is very much like a movie. I say “Hells yes!”

I just wanted to stop for a moment and write this. You need to stop reading this and go get this game, PS3-ers!
