I just read today that a french PS3 mag just gave Uncharted 2: Among Thieves a score of 21/20 saying "Long, visually stunning, deep and explosive, Uncharted 2 combines all the qualities you can find in a videogame, and more! A new milestone has been reached in the videogame history."
I'm yet to see it, I'm yet to play it I'm looking forward to it but is this hype gone stoopid like Halo 3 hype or GTA 4 hype which failed to deliver games to match the hype and earlier games in those series?
I take this sort of contrived nonsense now with a grain of salt coz I bought into it and played 'Too Human', Tomb Raider Angel of Darkness, Mario Galaxy, Fear 2, Resident Evil 5, Crysis, Halo Wars and they are hours in my life I will never get back.
Killzone 2, Half Life 2 Ep 2 and Bioshock are three games that buck the hype trend for me..
