This coming weekend, Naughty Dog will be adding a few treats for gamers in Uncharted 2: new, free multiplayer map ‘The Fort‘, in-game player card, and leaderboards. Just for the weekend itself, there’s likely to be Double XP according to TheSixthAxis. Might be enough to peel me away from Assassin’s Creed II hmm.

I can’t believe my luck this year: I’m an avid gamer, and I find myself spoilt for choice at the moment. This is one of those years in which the sheer amount of quality games releases have well and truly out-stripped my budget! With several games that could legitimately be called ‘Game Of The Year’, [...]
When I found out that one of my favourite games of all time, Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune, was getting a sequel I already knew it was going to be great. I mean, it had to be, right? With Naughty Dog constantly striving to push the bar ever-higher and with the PS3 as a platform, great things [...]

If you’re reading this and you’ve not yet played the beta, then yes, either by robbing a bank or bribing Naughty Dog you somehow need to get into the Uncharted 2 multiplayer beta right now. It’s that good. For those who have pre-order Uncharted 2 or managed to snag a beta key, access is granted [...]
Follow what’s happening minute-by-minute. With the Uncharted 2 multiplayer beta filtering out to more and more people, Twitter is quite literally, where the action is! Uncharted 2 realtime Twitter updates are marked with #UNCHARTED2
Ars Technica has a detailed and informative interview with Christophe Balestra, co-president of Naughty Dog about why Uncharted 2 couldn’t be made on the 360; involving the technology utilised behind the scences, but crucially Naughty Dog’s role and responsibility of being a first party developer and how their experience feeds into the wider developer community.
There’s been a couple of games that I’ve been really excited about for a long time now that are currently on the horizon, and will be with us later this year: Assassin’s Creed 2 and Uncharted 2: Among Thieves. With E3, we’ve all been deluged with plenty of information about both games. Here’s a round-up [...]
E3 Interview – PlayStation.Blog.Europe Tracks Down Uncharted 2: Among Thieves- I’m still amazed by the footage shown at E3, but as ever, I want more, as I’m a huge Uncharted fan. The interview is very insightful, and has a link to a trailer: all of which you see is either actual gameplay, or cutscenes rendered [...]
Uncharted 2 Interview: Director blows the sequel wide open (part 1)- For all you Uncharted fans out there, this is essential reading, and I’m not kidding. Plenty of stuff is covered in-depth, so grab yourself a brew and enjoy the read.
Uncharted 2 details revealed in latest EDGE- Some more interesting tidbits, like what Naughty Dog actually mean by ’stealth’. This is another reason why I must subscribe to Edge! In the mean time, I’m going to run outside like a maniac to my nearest newsagents and get myself a copy of this issue.
Uncharted 2 preview in Game Informer reveals juicy details- Interesting to hear of Drake’s new sidekick: Chloe Frazer, voiced by Claudia Black (Stargate SG-1)… but what about Elena and Sully?! Also interesting to note:
The game will also reportedly use “nearly 100%” of the PS3’s power (Drake’s Fortune has been quoted as using 30%)
Naughty Dog: Uncharted 2 Teaser is Real-Time- If you read the article, it’s absolutely true. It was the same with Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune which is probably why it earned accolades of best-looking game. Seriously though, on top of everything else, the visuals in this series are something rather special to behold.
