Fortune hunter Nathan Drake returns in UNCHARTED 2: Among Thieves™, a pulse-pounding third-person action-adventure/shooter created by award-winning developer Naughty Dog. Down on his luck, Drake is lured back into the treacherous world of thieves and mercenary treasure-seekers he had sought to leave behind. When a mysterious artifact propels Drake on an expedition to find the legendary Himalayan valley of Shambhala, he finds himself embroiled in a dangerous game of cat-and-mouse against a fugitive war criminal who’s after more than just the fabled riches of the lost city. Caught in a web of deception and plunged into an increasingly deadly pursuit that tests the limits of his endurance, Drake will be forced to risk everything – but has his luck finally run out?
Uncharted 2 is a must buy for any PS3 owner. This game is nothing short of amazing. Fast paced and will keep you at the edge of your seat for most of it. It is well rounded with a great balance of puzzles, platforming, and action. The characters are really well written and really believable. Better yet, this game actually succeeds at being funny as well. The story is solid and plays out like a Hollywood blockbuster. The musical score is top notch as well.
Even if you are not a fan of this genre you should buy this game if you have a PS3, you will not be disappointed in it.
Awesome The best game I have played on the PS3. It gets you involved in the storyline like no other game.

Non-stop Adventure Uncharted 2 is a masterful slice of action/adventuring that out-Indys Indy, and puts most other action/adventure games to shame. The story and characterisation may be familiar, but they're executed with such panache and such effortless humour that you can't help but love it. The gameplay aspect strives ahead of the original, with a choice of new weapons, harder enemies and longer sequences which really gives you a large breathe to take during the slightest of pauses.
This game really gives its characters room to breathe; in the sense that they're constantly chatting, bantering and reacting to what's going on. Not only does this make them more believable, but they become companions on the journey, as opposed to automatons that only snap to life in the cutscenes. It's incredible just how many incidental/one-shot animations have been built into this game to ensure that every sequence looks and feels seamless. That includes everything from small touches, like the way Nate squeezes through a narrow gap, placing his hands perfectly on the rock face, to incidental animations, such as the way he jumps back if you don't move out of the way of a fire escape ladder being kicked down, and one-shots, like the ability to interact with the kids in the Nepalese village. These additions make this game a must play, as well as the number one game to beat for all developers.
Like a movie Uncharted 2 follows the first instalment in the series with is movie like plot and cutscenes, if you like the Indiana Jones series (excepted the last one...) and the National Treasure movies, you wiil love this.
Actually everyone will love this game, it is just to damn good!
