PlayStation Community Reflects on Iconic Uncharted 2: Among Thieves for 15th Anniversary | Push Square

Uncharted 2: Among Thieves is a phenomenal video game, which isn't a very controversial opinion to hold. It put the series, from Sony-owned first-party developer Naughty Dog, on the map in a way that the first game didn't quite manage, informing the stylish, cinematic direction of many of its contemporaries to this day. Protagonist Nathan Drake would go on to join the pantheon of PlayStation's many mascots, and Naughty Dog would become its most prestigious studio. As of 2015, Uncharted 2 has sold more than 6.5 million copies alone.

Sorry, but I find this game overrated. Gameplay mechanics are nice and presentation is bombastic, but the story is total bollocks. I played it in 2022 for the first time and forgot about it after finishing. However, Uncharted 4 is so much better in EVERY aspect.

@Max_the_German I agree. This was arguably the beginning of «OMG it's like I'm playing a movie»
