Earlier today Sony showed the world for the first time some extended play of their upcoming game Uncharted 2: Among Thieves. The game looks as amazing as the original if not more. The texture shading, shadow and reflection effects look outstanding. And Nathan Drake’s interaction with his surrounding environment is great as well. The way he climbs objects and scales walls look more natural and less pre-programmed. Very fluid overall.
There are a few instances in the video where you can still see that the camera angle does get a little awkward, but it still looks like an improvement over the original Uncharted title. And the gun play looks improved as well. Aiming seems less painstaking and more natural this time around.
GameStop has the game listed with a 10/01/09 release date. Click here to pre-order your copy.
