ugh, stealth gameplay

pass

might as well call it metal gear sahara

[cool breeze]

not too happy to hear about stealth gameplay, but more climbing and the new environment are good.  Also his face looks better.

[Don Flamenco]

This game sucks, I already hate it, fuck the ps3, duckman go to hell.  

[fistfulofmetal]

Hopefully Naughty Dog is better at doing a sequel for their new IP than Insomniac was.

[MrAngryFace]

Tomb Raider > Dude Raider

[Greatness Gone]

I still need to rent the first one.

maybe they reversed roles this gen, because on the ps2

Ratchet 2 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Ratchet 1
Jak 1 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Jak 2

 

[littlemathletics]

He looks chilly. Should be wearing a nice wooly hat.

[Oblivion]

Wow, they actually bothered making a sequel?

[fistfulofmetal]

But then Jak 3 was amazing.

[duckman2000]

Excellent adventure game confirmed. Elevated to ultra-innovative super-extra breakthrough game by the kittons confirmed.

[archie4208]

I'd rather have info on Guitar Hero Metallica.

[ferrarimanf355]

Game Informer gets another awesome exclusive, and EGM keeps getting games that nobody gives a shit about.

Uncharted 2:  Put On A Goddamned Jacket

[Howard Alan Treesong]

Uncharted 2: Frostbitten Wang

btw, Cohen, your tag makes me laugh because I know you're not really for the ethical treatment of Nintendo fans~

[drohne]

can't halftuck a jacket. nate's got his priorities

[Eel O'Brian]

Uncharted 2:  Yellow Snow

[Rman]

I liked the first game.  But adding stealth is going to dock it some points IMO.

[Howard Alan Treesong]

adding stealth is the funquivalent^TM of cutting three features

First thing i thought when i saw the Gameinformer cover.


Anyways looking forward to the GH Metallica Info

[Van Cruncheon]

on the other hand stealth and/or sniping gives it +10 gaming bro points from the call of duty set

[drohne]

btw, Cohen, your tag makes me laugh because I know you're not really for the ethical treatment of Nintendo fans~

he probably means that nintendo fans should be euthanized, frozen, and dumped in mass graves

[Eel O'Brian]

not me, fuck stealth AND sniping

[drohne]

Nate's Hair: Stays Douchey In Snow!

[y2kev]

The stealth could be done in a fashion that does not suck. It is possible, I have seen it.

[drohne]

i like stealth games, but stealth in nonstealth games has...actually never been done well, ever. though i guess it makes contextual sense for uncharted

edit: well, goldeneye, come to think of it -- but as a good rare game, a good licensed game, and a good n64 game, goldeneye is an exception to any number of ironclad rules

[Howard Alan Treesong]

insomuch as it's another gameplay type it can ape uncomprehendingly?

[Eel O'Brian]

I actually liked the first game up until the "big twist," then it kinda fell apart on me

[cool breeze]

if the stealth is done in a way that makes it more of an option than required, it won't be so bad.  Basically like what Fallout 3 does where if the enemy doesn't catch you, you can take them out easily, but if they do it's just a normal shoot out.

I'm wondering why he isn't wearing a coat, but then again he is all beat up, so maybe someone tossed him out there or something.

I actually liked the first game up until the "big twist," then it kinda fell apart on me

I don't think it ever really fell apart for me.  It was a consistent game throughout, it's just that the earlier stuff played one way and the later stuff played another.  Well really there were three types.  First was where you can take enemies out with one or two hits and can run around out of cover, then there was the no aim twist shoot out stuff, then there was against the armored guys where it was like Gears of War and not as fun.

And I hope there are urban areas

[Van Cruncheon]

not me, fuck stealth AND sniping

i'm not talking about you; i'm talking about the churlish fratpackers who call each other the n-bomb in call of duty 4 and scream BOOM HEADSHOT every five seconds before pantomime teabag sessions around spawn points

[drew]

Uncharted 2: Douchebags on Ice

[drohne]

more in that nate's personal quest to rid an island of its brown people never made much sense, as fun and socially laudable as it may have been

[y2kev]

coat? what if he fell through a timewarp

[fistfulofmetal]

As long as getting caught doesn't = game over, then I don't really care if there's stealth or not. There will probably be scenarios where you have to explore through a setting and try not to get seen.
But if you do, you can just fight your way through. This being the harder method, of course.

[duckman2000]

i'm not talking about you; i'm talking about the churlish fratpackers who call each other "distinguished black fellow" on call of duty 4 and scream BOOM HEADSHOT every five seconds before pantomime teabag sessions around spawn points

Is good to play togewa

[Jansen]

you'll fight humans until the very last hour of the game and then for no reason whatsoever yetis will become your foe

smh at stealth gameplay. that is NOT what uncharted needed. ND just needed to tone down the killing, turn up the climbing and make it so that a distinguished mentally-challenged fellow cannot solve the puzzles

[Eel O'Brian]

aka the reason i question paying $50 a year for xbl

i wish i'd bought COD: WaW on PC 

[Crushed]

second i saw "stealth" i came to eb to see the lols

hahaha stealth gameplay

maybe next they can add some escort missions and fetch quests

[Eel O'Brian]

a timewarp made of hair gel

[Eel O'Brian]

i sure hope you have to buy your ammunition

[fistfulofmetal]

Nate probably turned the crank under the hatch and got teleported away.

[drew]

[littlemathletics]

Or a boss that you have to fight while protecting your love interest.

[y2kev]

STEALTH GUNFIGHTS PLATFORMING

put a giant swimming level in and this could be the shitfest of next year

The swimming bits of Tomb Raider Underworld work fine. They just made it so that Lara swims using dual analog controls. It makes perfect sense and works as if you were on land.

[demi]

Cool

[Joe Molotov]

It needs a bunch of bonus levels with all of Nate's shitty friends.

Goddamn, you make it look soooo easy.  

[Crushed]

It needs a bunch of bonus levels with all of Nate's shitty friends.

With an emphasis on vehicle gameplay.

Also, it's revealed that he's a descendant of Marco Polo as well: Nathan Polo Drake. This explains the spiked up hair.

[y2kev]

 

[demi]

JEez these sequels are being cranked way too early. Isnt Uncharted at least a year old?

[fistfulofmetal]

It might end up good,

I think you've just had a breakthrough! Good for you man!

[y2kev]

After having everyone compliment the original games lush foliage.... a barren winter wasteland?

Really? The first game's area was uncharted because it was dangerous. This time, its just because its fucking boring,

He's distinguished mentally-challenged and so are you.

Him = barren blue snow field for 10 seconds = graphical power
You = barren blue snow field for 10 seconds = Must be entire setting of the game, is boring

WTF

[Eel O'Brian]

gonna play it, gonna bitch when the boogens come out

[BobFromPikeCreek]

more like among queefs

[y2kev]
