Here’s a concise review and overview of Uncharted 2: Among Thieves (European version, NPEA-00364 — part of the Sony “Platinum” / Essentials range on PS3).
While the single-player campaign is legendary, NPEA00364 also housed a robust multiplayer component that caught the community by surprise. Naughty Dog had stripped out the "Sixaxis" motion controls that plagued the first game and replaced them with tight, responsive mechanics that translated perfectly to online play.
The multiplayer introduced the concept of "Buddy System" mechanics and objective-based modes that encouraged teamwork rather than just deathmatch kills. For years, the European servers were bustling hubs of activity, with players clambering over the "Village" and "Plaza" maps. It proved that a cinematic, story-driven game could sustain a thriving online community.
"Uncharted 2: Among Thieves" is an action-adventure game developed by Naughty Dog and published by Sony Computer Entertainment. It was released in 2009 for the PlayStation 3 and serves as the sequel to "Uncharted: Drake's Fortune." This game follows the adventures of Nathan Drake, a treasure hunter, as he searches for a fabled Cintamani Stone.
