What do you do when you feel out of step with the rest of the world? When everyone has such a high opinion of something, and you eagerly try it out, wanting so badly to agree with all the raves and accolades, but then afterwards all you feel is…disappointed? Welcome to the internet’s first non-glowing review of Uncharted 2.

Look, this is as pretty of a game as you will ever find. It would easily take home the Oscar for cinematography, or whatever the real world equivalent of graphics would be. The section where Nathan Drake is running through the Himalayan village, following the guy in the Crocodile Dundee hat, is probably the closest any 2D representation has come to making a 3D world believable. It was a technological marvel that won’t be challenge in this generation. And, yes, the voice work is very well done. It is clear that the actors take their video game roles as seriously as any ‘true’ acting job their agent may present them. It’s easy to see that everyone involved with this game (opus? Can we use ‘opus’ here? Do we need a new word for this industry’s high water points?) cared about their efforts, and poured whatever they had in the into the final, epic production.
