Uncharted 2: Among Thieves has received almost unanimous high-praise from media outlets (including PSLS’s 5/5 Editor’s Choice Award), however, this latest nod, not from a media outlet, may be the highest yet. 3D Realms’ George Broussard has some high remarks regarding Nathan Drake’s latest adventure.

Speaking on Shacknews’ forums, Broussard compared Uncharted 2′s singleplayer to that of  Half Life 1 / 2. That, in itself, is quite impressive. However, one must read all of his comments to get a sense of his excitement.

“Finshed Uncharted 1 today. It was f**king badass.

Started and am playing Uncharted 2 now. It’s badasser in every way.

If you own a PS3, buy and play BOTH games. Play Uncharted 1 first. If you don’t own a PS3, play the game with a friend who has one.

Amazing single player experiences, nearly, if not, on par with Half-Life 1/2. I haven’t felt this giddy over a game series since Half-Life.

This is epic badassery right here. Believe the hype.”

Uncharted 2: Among Thieves is in store’s shelves now. As of the time of this writing, Uncharted 2 has achieved an incredible 96/100 on Metacritic–making it the highest rated PS3 game of all time.

    make me believe that the game is good or something

  3. claass21 says:

    he should have said “If you don’t own a PS3, GO BUY ONE…NOW”

  4. smpTurbo says:

    Thought the single player campaign was amazing!? Try the multiplayer. Its awesome playing survival mode with friends. Couldn’t agree more on how bad-ass this game is!

  5. SolidCake_ says:

    I like the way it mixes exploration, stealth, and shooter into one great experience.
    I think it’s also the best looking game I’ve ever seen.

  6. FiftyQuid says:

    Very nice. I can’t wait to start using “badasser” and “badassery” in my own sentences.

  7. JonhX says:

    Too bad GTA IV it`s actually the highest rated PS3 game of all time, but Uncharted 2 is the only one that doesn´t have scores below 90, i mean GTA IV, MGS 4, LBP, COD 4 they all have scores below 90 but not U2. Shibby!

  8. claass21 says:

    GTA was shit and completely biased

  9. Robotron says:

    How long until MS buys Naughty Dog?

    and yeah GTA was a huge disappointment to me as well….all the review hype for such a poor game. Yahtzee’s review was the only one to tell the truth.

  10. DGR8Mc187 says:

    Fact is when you make a game this good even your peers are willing to do free adverising for you, U2 FTW!

  11. @Robotron
    Um a couple years after never? ND wouldn’t throw away all the time and money spent on U2 engine and developing for ps3 only to jump ship and do it all over again for a bit of money.

  12. kiwikjh says:

    Maybe if they spent less time playing games they might have gotten around to finishing DNF

  13. kirobz says:

    I tell you. I’ve never been entertained like this by a video game in my life. I even saw my self clapping at it after i finished it.

  14. giese095 says:

    I didn’t really enjoy Half Life so Uncharted is better in ever way in my opinion. Nice to hear Naughty Dog and Uncharted getting the praise they deserve. I would like to see those XBox fanboys say now that there aren’t any good games on the PS3…but maybe they’re still too busy playing yet another Halo remake.

    @ kiwikjh

    he didnt spend all that time just playing video games

    he also ate deep-fried cheesecake

  16. wtGp says:

    is comparing it to Half-life a compliment? l never played that game

  17. @wtGp

    Half-Life 2 was a benchmark for story-telling in video games as well as graphics. Pretty much what Uncharted did for this generation, Half-Life 2 did several years back for PC’s.

  18. shadowjin says:

    They did an excellent job on UC2

  19. Dre says:
