Jason's Day Off--Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood, Uncharted 2 Multiplayer Beta, Star Defense

Monday, June 29th, 2009 – running time 30:01
Showing up today, Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood is a force to be reckoned with while the multiplayer beta for Uncharted 2 and the iPhone's Star Defense shine on.

Most action movie genres have seen more than their fair share of gaming allusions. The western, historically, has been sadly underrepresented. The powers that be (also known as "game developers") seem to be rectifying that this year and the first of the breed to make its way into our yearning grip is Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood. Boasting beauty as well as grit, it's a trek that JayFresh and Matt loved while Cesar held up as an example of a direction to go in gaming if not really a paragon example.

It's small wonder that in anticipation of the full game's release, Greg Ford, Tyler Barber, and JayFresh were eager to jump into the multiplayer beta for Uncharted 2. It seemed a pleasant surprise all around.

Ryan and Cesar, recently back from France, carried with them the plague. Still down for the count, Ryan is grateful, however, for his iPhone and the opportunities it affords, not the least of which is the most-excellent Star Defense. It may seem a small wonder that there's yet another tower defense game on the iPhone, but this one offers unique twists that make it more than worth your while.

And, perhaps inspired by his cohorts, Jason takes a sick day to do what he does best. That's right: DANCE PARTY.

" And if your car and that radius it to death obviously any game here in corners here in our. Easier in these sort of like your trying to bottleneck the enemy's coming towards you see you are sitting in that bottle -- you're sitting in Culver -- kind of party in this very light. Standstill statement aggravate comes you don't have any time -- try to roll out of the way of splash damage is so large that it's almost nothing you can do. The -- vote yes the other multiplayer that they showed -- outside of -- death mattresses. Essentially capture the flag yeah it's basically on the that the thing is that like this is that when you're carrying the idol you can throw it. And that that definitely -- ingenious little like tweak today typical design that we can really is. It's fullback and swing it throw it off. And it gives you like an extra ten -- yourself into your territory. Where your teenage -- to grab it and then usually has come with a rain of enemy fire as well yeah and I think -- is you -- bring it back but it makes really it's really good time for matches. The game industry it's of the environment where they'll put that the chance that you need to return it to a second story level. So he -- ship to team up for a while one person's running up their you have to throw it up. Through like a bombed out wall to get it up -- so that they can. Place it you know -- your base but also saw some people do it's really creative things -- they were sort of throwing it along to each other they -- yet. And with all sorts of the other guy that was like ten feet away from him -- pick up and then return repeated to get it across the -- strategies like that make no -- see how that -- grow as a result situation."

" To where. Then the enemy team thought they were. Throwing it to better their fans that actually went and our hands and spent years ago and I -- on the golf the other way maybe he started shot just kind of just didn't help and it's going to -- wave and -- a few dollars to go over that wrong all right oh yeah aids tennis -- team over."

" The only -- levels and it does get old. What do think the ones that they image shows the like well I guess that visually think they're great but right arm. Other than that people sort of felt the same. They're both square the ball away -- that both the middle. Area middle that's open yeah yeah it's kind of like a variety of levels of platforms -- rooms that you can -- and around the perimeter and -- a -- cover it -- what other levels -- you know a considerable like the box -- These -- the net more stresses the the cloud -- and maybe more jungle setting or something that would have been. -- Commission basis that game yeah it's like.

But one that disappointed me was the -- collage this update. They just don't like you've reduced charging shooting yeah every anytime that you. Split up once one person up into this like. Opens his old decrepit building steadily over the life there's in that that's that's cool by one and more that -- hope there is more that is morally. Risking a fire every break up more often recital tasted it but I guess it is is like a bunch of ways of enemies also record -- in a way yes a mobile -- mold is keeping."

" forward that's exactly always."

" But they were all. Super cheap stuff about. Single player but charge you that's really why we're gonna by the game and that's we're -- the most looking forward to do so I feel like multiplayer just icing on the cake for me anyways for this game I don't know how much going to do the standard death match. But the plunder and I'm definitely the coop modes for sure it's a playing game where you don't expect it to have the point and good multiplayer so when you play it it's great to have it's a pleasant surprise but an expected to be this good night I guess it was -- Renowned I've played and I'm glad to put it in depth up."

" We of this week's can chat tomorrow. No 1 for Wednesday morning -- good -- that we have two more than ever to film on the really understand it's too much received so much that it trading. --"

" You -- the prototype Alex -- hiding in human. Step out on the streets of New York no memory of limitless power. And terrifying viral epidemic sweeps across Manhattan Tutsi group black what special forces moving in transforming it into war. Go into the mysteries of origin that you need through your powers were part of conspiracy forty years in the me. It's fast and at least you can think of that over the top we'll promote and do you meet these guys -- that. He conspiracies of the story program. Of this movement."

" Like that that part of it again -- news was when it comes the gun fights like you know having excellent to back you up. -- wanted to cover you like his -- nestled in isolated in his -- everything they come out there's life. --"

" It's -- good news. It's freaking hard yeah very comfortable look like resting got to. Get up at four minutes or leave. In games when he plant trees and start of friends who really want it's -- they -- the last apple press conference because it's."

" But legitimately cool looking. It's basically tower defense and on days. So you can just use your you know it's -- touch screens controls civilians in the world around. And then there's have. Laid out on the world and you know you've wasted hours -- guys on him his parents and the thing that I like about it I know what you like field runners might. You know desktop tower defense because you get to kind of -- lay out her own path right. Well my first tower -- game was actually his children monsters I was not raised on the net builder right sort of game I like the ones that have. Listen every stage. And this game like essays just turns out to be the best song tonight. The controls are great you can quickly easily zoom in and out of any of the planets. It's got. I think five different tower types there's there's -- one there's flame towers there's electricity towers there's life. Laser power and you know the nice thing about this game is that each of the enemy types. Not each of them are there certain amusement park by any of the towers went. Several of the enemy types just don't get attacked by -- certain ones and that's where this strategy -- in --"

" But I guess I have to I'd probably have spent several hours this -- pretty. And then beyond that. And you -- the -- I mean -- I think there's some of the -- iPhone developers. Particularly because. It seems like they're taking the platform very very seriously. And this game is the first game of theirs you use do what they're calling plus plus which is their version. Basically. Xbox Live -- cool but for the iPhone and also check it out after you have. And unique login just like an Xbox Live -- you'll look it looks just like you're pulling up your Xbox Live in there. It's trophies which could you know they're called awards in their system but to me it's saving his achievements. And you give them as you play through the game you can actually. You know challenger France's two games in this system as well and of course this is gonna be persistent for all of the -- coming -- IPhone games so I mean it's just the beginning of something really really cool future I'm ready for more plus plus integration. It's NC yet you know even if you've played it into a bunch of the other tower defense once again it's not quite as like. It's not thinking man's game that you defenses. You know it's not as that's of this. Yeah that's fine it's it's a little immediately after that intimately are exactly this is much more friendly and god it's it's just a beautiful game I'm sure you're playing and on three GS it's like. Super super receivers movement and played on three G and I still you know only when their. Are there many enemies on the street and my noticing any sort of likes them or anything. I've just been really impressed by it's it's a really fun game I lyrics it."

" And."

" Godaddy.com. Makes it easy to customize their own virtual dedicated server. Choose one of three popular plans -- select your own Linux or windows server with all the planned -- you need. Plus enter code C move forward when you check out and save an additional 15% on any order of 75 dollars or more. Some restrictions apply see site reviewed journals to ensure peace of the Internet -- godaddy.com."

" Yeah I decided it. It would be way better it might just zoomed in on -- here in on the act is like those pretty emotional hard pressed to do is let journalists show because all these presents -- and I am surprised sizzle yeah. Exactly sound like totally -- they're that we knew it was sold in what's better than -- them really close up you know and like -- that there is right. This is the emotional part of this year -- I think that's something we gotta focus more on the -- you know it's just like really showing you here."

" Yeah."

" Did did -- the -- iTunes. Over 300 right things war. It was an error. Now -- we boost him out."

" Now."

" No one misses --"

" Call it is really cool couple guys they they have different cells that combat and their concentration -- reflect that as well like you got raid where his is you know. But the radical over the guys that you let you know it's like -- other than that thomas'. With his where you just play do you hold on the -- trigger -- and you click the right thumb stick to simulate like doing this pathetic of this. Talk to anybody who's in range and do it again."

" Great to be felt like the heavy while Thomas was like he was always and that that is rightfully his specialty is the right right he can -- Very far back -- any kind of pick guys up while ray. Is you know kind of TV running gun come a running gun executed -- he runs into this it doubles the cheaters. It is kind of -- guys off what it they use different have big have a specific. Weapons -- as well. If you're playing as Thomas that Scott the last -- you'll be doing climbing section any games bow and arrow. As -- tonight. It's also throwing knives yes and edit and -- that's and break can handle the Gatling gun. In the large one of those and he can also throw dynamite. We're just like grenades and I -- Aggies."

" Then that a little bit but I used to -- choose a lot more. And I really felt good that they paid attention to the strength of both characters in the in the town of I think with the ghost town of one of the -- levels where. It was re walking down the middle of the street. Just like (%expletive) balls out you know we're shooting and everything. But yet Obama's. Walking along the balconies -- up on the left and picking off guys don't like. Yeah and they actually rage so it was really cool I think on the street scene my AI character they're doing it."

" I've played as -- Thomas -- I was more of keeping a distance kind of picking off guys from hiding spot and having. Great to guards walked down the villages watching him. Higher bad guys like crazy any sort of like creating great distraction and it also would -- ask what time. --"

" In the beginning."

" I tell you like I was really frustrated by the -- I hated six shooters it wasn't until I got used to the kind of Flutie. Evening that the game has that I kind of got more into the the six shooters and at the auto aim of course felt. National seeing where your initial setting. Civil war battles here and I mean that's what actually scared -- in the beginning because initially it starts off in the civil war you know in this battle we -- frequent occurrence but. You know you assume you can get out of that in the second chapter immediately I felt like okay this is this is the cult or that I like -- really nailed it. For me was the upgrades. Because once I finally -- my guns like I. The web played is I literally is stocked up money before game until. But the middle we're I had enough for like the highest ratings like ranger Adams and it was I had those like Dan -- I'd probably --"

" That I've I've -- to be a really nice this is especially as -- it may have a discharging. And then like anything charging close enough. Then -- actually like target two guys. Still it didn't like about the comment really was is -- cover system was kind of walking something. Sometimes I'd want to go undercover any wouldn't have a plan that would want to go to he would. I'm once I was in cover I really like -- I can barely peeking around the corner I can like have these. Over and above you know and that felt really nice but like digging into and out of covered I think there's a little broken."

" Becoming really wishing I had a button to put on the cover and and beside the covered through the yeah depth of field. -- fact that it has to it's like -- you when you're aiming the depth of field it was so."

" sometimes that often my whole field of."

" Vision was blurry you know an outlook what what are my inning I don't know what I'm doing you know it's really frustrating it. You never are stuck doing one thing. -- fire coming each chapters like eighteen to thirty minutes long again and even the firefight that's three to five minutes and it's this little halt and then. They're all the game is neatly pushing forward to this next event like -- writing. A stage coach you guys need to break -- building last thought to the topic. Cover ray while he's you know stealing this over here and I go to prison break -- higher escorting. Station wagons like you're getting away from Comanche Indians and we'll take -- data going to shoot it from behind act -- Station my station ahead at."

" Under a frustrated that the game later Soledad we start much except for the quick -- that was the one part of the game. That really really frustrated me I mean there was billion."

" Yours it's like the boss battles right here you come to the very last guy and their kind of like -- launch Kruger man that you beat those in the low -- parishes decided bolstered. And you have do you. Kind of move left or right depending on you know what -- wherever the opponent is keeping in view. And yet to make sure and keep your hand in place just above your guns you know that you can draw a hard time. Q. To -- but I just -- like it was so hit -- miss much time I felt like solicit from the -- littering."

" And I would Jeremiah analyst at left end."

" Just wouldn't worry -- time and I'd be lying on the -- the -- in LA it was it was really pressed."

" I had agreed that that is the weakest mechanic in the game I still love it I think the reason why even though. I totally agree it's probably the most frustrating part of the game it definitely there they were had to restart more than any other section but. Visually it's amazing and also it feels intuitive like using the left joystick to move to that I hope this. The only thing that kind of march that experience while other mechanically I think the market for immediately was like -- you -- go up and like. 8085%. Of the time to shoot him in the balls. Because that's the first time that the radical turned threats of that's when you're gonna yeah we're executing guys in the -- that I have is that at the something really bad battery to get up that -- they've they've killed you pursue -- like. Paul fastball fastball that whatever its award and like those different little pieces. The little. And yet they're all broken up buying it really compelling story very like surprisingly compelling as that man. It's not on the level of tombstone -- anything."

" Promise of that treasures attracted to (%expletive) load low last known him for raising money. Are you talking about us little --"

" Six that treasure is nothing but a theory to."

" You it was a kind of tracks like tennis that is the enemies. Yeah I think you put it best when you. You pointed out that it's kind of like they look like puppets when they move sometimes you know it and it looked a bit. It you know over exaggerated sometimes that's it for their actions so that still the writing -- great voice acting within the top notch now."

" With a treasury who didn't live at people's -- Like -- She's. May -- the weapons. The one thing that really jumped out of me was that two areas like. Twice in the game we go to these little and -- a little shop there -- those using guns in this like someone had posted on the Walton could take -- from. You can hop on a horse. -- really far across the land until you get to the -- case in point. There's little things that happen along the way like there's you know you can rescue people that are being attacked by Indians are being attacked by outlaws. And then you get to hear mission the mission through differences like relations between that'll like just. -- kinda came out and yours as well now a little -- world it's certainly an open world game effort you know these three missions that I can do or can go straight back into your game and continue on with."

" The story that that's you gotta be carried to the entire game this kind of like."

" Mixing up the game -- so much and while that was really appreciate it I I think overall I kind of felt it pull wires. Offers lots of really interesting game play and it doesn't adequately. I think that's for coming and because it wasn't it wasn't like anything I did in the game was extra fun it was a really good. What is that none of it was backed up like all of it wasn't a little educated them."

" But -- stated they did all of these different things they -- the ball really well and I had a really really fun time. Might be one of the tape might hear game that -- here. Yeah because it was it felt that it -- that his position on that's like horribly under represented and videogames and I I get it from what it's fun perspective using -- Hundreds of John -- automatic weapons completely decided -- but it's such a good job of putting in the -- that is great art direction for a time sort of wanted to see him if you like being able to walk wouldn't -- that this is a much stronger game and father was part of what went into that I think -- but. Is gorgeous program thanked me they did a good job like setting up these why businesses and you know with the -- like broken Rockies in the."

" Background single player slightly short six hours on the dot -- like five minutes of 52 seconds totally gonna replay and replay has promised yet expect. It doesn't -- lacking at all the story feels completely jam packed so many environments -- so many things that you -- even after six hours I was like. -- that if you have a lot."

" What's wrong Billy no money for you gains. Will try to game slide. Give players the largest online video game rental service and offers you choice of over 6000 new classic titles across all councils and with plans starting at 59 to five months game plan members have been wonderful workings and it's time -- keep that as long as they.

Co -- fans will get a two week free trial when we go to game -- dot com slash colon. Some restrictions apply see site for details."

" And his that is the route again we're we're good for the -- that -- yet well. -- That's our blog is but it's it's evening okay cool. Yeah and Jason really. -- the yeah. They managed to check on him on the way home."

" And Q you are --"

" War."

But the plunder and I'm definitely the coop modes for sure it's a playing game where you don't expect it to have the point and good multiplayer so when you play it it's great to have it's a pleasant surprise but an expected to be this good night I guess it was -- Renowned I've played and I'm glad to put it in depth up."

" We of this week's can chat tomorrow. No 1 for Wednesday morning -- good -- that we have two more than ever to film on the really understand it's too much received so much that it trading. --"

" You -- the prototype Alex -- hiding in human. Step out on the streets of New York no memory of limitless power. And terrifying viral epidemic sweeps across Manhattan Tutsi group black what special forces moving in transforming it into war. Go into the mysteries of origin that you need through your powers were part of conspiracy forty years in the me. It's fast and at least you can think of that over the top we'll promote and do you meet these guys -- that. He conspiracies of the story program. Of this movement."

" Like that that part of it again -- news was when it comes the gun fights like you know having excellent to back you up. -- wanted to cover you like his -- nestled in isolated in his -- everything they come out there's life. --"

" It's -- good news. It's freaking hard yeah very comfortable look like resting got to. Get up at four minutes or leave. In games when he plant trees and start of friends who really want it's -- they -- the last apple press conference because it's."

" But legitimately cool looking. It's basically tower defense and on days. So you can just use your you know it's -- touch screens controls civilians in the world around. And then there's have. Laid out on the world and you know you've wasted hours -- guys on him his parents and the thing that I like about it I know what you like field runners might. You know desktop tower defense because you get to kind of -- lay out her own path right. Well my first tower -- game was actually his children monsters I was not raised on the net builder right sort of game I like the ones that have. Listen every stage. And this game like essays just turns out to be the best song tonight. The controls are great you can quickly easily zoom in and out of any of the planets. It's got. I think five different tower types there's there's -- one there's flame towers there's electricity towers there's life. Laser power and you know the nice thing about this game is that each of the enemy types. Not each of them are there certain amusement park by any of the towers went. Several of the enemy types just don't get attacked by -- certain ones and that's where this strategy -- in --"

" But I guess I have to I'd probably have spent several hours this -- pretty. And then beyond that. And you -- the -- I mean -- I think there's some of the -- iPhone developers. Particularly because. It seems like they're taking the platform very very seriously. And this game is the first game of theirs you use do what they're calling plus plus which is their version. Basically. Xbox Live -- cool but for the iPhone and also check it out after you have. And unique login just like an Xbox Live -- you'll look it looks just like you're pulling up your Xbox Live in there. It's trophies which could you know they're called awards in their system but to me it's saving his achievements. And you give them as you play through the game you can actually. You know challenger France's two games in this system as well and of course this is gonna be persistent for all of the -- coming -- IPhone games so I mean it's just the beginning of something really really cool future I'm ready for more plus plus integration. It's NC yet you know even if you've played it into a bunch of the other tower defense once again it's not quite as like. It's not thinking man's game that you defenses. You know it's not as that's of this. Yeah that's fine it's it's a little immediately after that intimately are exactly this is much more friendly and god it's it's just a beautiful game I'm sure you're playing and on three GS it's like. Super super receivers movement and played on three G and I still you know only when their. Are there many enemies on the street and my noticing any sort of likes them or anything. I've just been really impressed by it's it's a really fun game I lyrics it."

" Yeah I decided it. It would be way better it might just zoomed in on -- here in on the act is like those pretty emotional hard pressed to do is let journalists show because all these presents -- and I am surprised sizzle yeah. Exactly sound like totally -- they're that we knew it was sold in what's better than -- them really close up you know and like -- that there is right. This is the emotional part of this year -- I think that's something we gotta focus more on the -- you know it's just like really showing you here."

" Yeah."

" Did did -- the -- iTunes. Over 300 right things war. It was an error. Now -- we boost him out."

" Now."

" No one misses --"

" Call it is really cool couple guys they they have different cells that combat and their concentration -- reflect that as well like you got raid where his is you know. But the radical over the guys that you let you know it's like -- other than that thomas'. With his where you just play do you hold on the -- trigger -- and you click the right thumb stick to simulate like doing this pathetic of this. Talk to anybody who's in range and do it again."

" Great to be felt like the heavy while Thomas was like he was always and that that is rightfully his specialty is the right right he can -- Very far back -- any kind of pick guys up while ray. Is you know kind of TV running gun come a running gun executed -- he runs into this it doubles the cheaters. It is kind of -- guys off what it they use different have big have a specific. Weapons -- as well. If you're playing as Thomas that Scott the last -- you'll be doing climbing section any games bow and arrow. As -- tonight. It's also throwing knives yes and edit and -- that's and break can handle the Gatling gun. In the large one of those and he can also throw dynamite. We're just like grenades and I -- Aggies."

" Then that a little bit but I used to -- choose a lot more. And I really felt good that they paid attention to the strength of both characters in the in the town of I think with the ghost town of one of the -- levels where. It was re walking down the middle of the street. Just like (%expletive) balls out you know we're shooting and everything. But yet Obama's. Walking along the balconies -- up on the left and picking off guys don't like. Yeah and they actually rage so it was really cool I think on the street scene my AI character they're doing it."

" I've played as -- Thomas -- I was more of keeping a distance kind of picking off guys from hiding spot and having. Great to guards walked down the villages watching him. Higher bad guys like crazy any sort of like creating great distraction and it also would -- ask what time. --"

" In the beginning."

" I tell you like I was really frustrated by the -- I hated six shooters it wasn't until I got used to the kind of Flutie. Evening that the game has that I kind of got more into the the six shooters and at the auto aim of course felt. National seeing where your initial setting. Civil war battles here and I mean that's what actually scared -- in the beginning because initially it starts off in the civil war you know in this battle we -- frequent occurrence but. You know you assume you can get out of that in the second chapter immediately I felt like okay this is this is the cult or that I like -- really nailed it. For me was the upgrades. Because once I finally -- my guns like I. The web played is I literally is stocked up money before game until. But the middle we're I had enough for like the highest ratings like ranger Adams and it was I had those like Dan -- I'd probably --"

" That I've I've -- to be a really nice this is especially as -- it may have a discharging. And then like anything charging close enough. Then -- actually like target two guys. Still it didn't like about the comment really was is -- cover system was kind of walking something. Sometimes I'd want to go undercover any wouldn't have a plan that would want to go to he would. I'm once I was in cover I really like -- I can barely peeking around the corner I can like have these. Over and above you know and that felt really nice but like digging into and out of covered I think there's a little broken."

" Becoming really wishing I had a button to put on the cover and and beside the covered through the yeah depth of field. -- fact that it has to it's like -- you when you're aiming the depth of field it was so."

" sometimes that often my whole field of."

" Vision was blurry you know an outlook what what are my inning I don't know what I'm doing you know it's really frustrating it. You never are stuck doing one thing. -- fire coming each chapters like eighteen to thirty minutes long again and even the firefight that's three to five minutes and it's this little halt and then. They're all the game is neatly pushing forward to this next event like -- writing. A stage coach you guys need to break -- building last thought to the topic. Cover ray while he's you know stealing this over here and I go to prison break -- higher escorting. Station wagons like you're getting away from Comanche Indians and we'll take -- data going to shoot it from behind act -- Station my station ahead at."

" Under a frustrated that the game later Soledad we start much except for the quick -- that was the one part of the game. That really really frustrated me I mean there was billion."

" Yours it's like the boss battles right here you come to the very last guy and their kind of like -- launch Kruger man that you beat those in the low -- parishes decided bolstered. And you have do you. Kind of move left or right depending on you know what -- wherever the opponent is keeping in view. And yet to make sure and keep your hand in place just above your guns you know that you can draw a hard time. Q. To -- but I just -- like it was so hit -- miss much time I felt like solicit from the -- littering."

" And I would Jeremiah analyst at left end."

" Just wouldn't worry -- time and I'd be lying on the -- the -- in LA it was it was really pressed."

" I had agreed that that is the weakest mechanic in the game I still love it I think the reason why even though. I totally agree it's probably the most frustrating part of the game it definitely there they were had to restart more than any other section but. Visually it's amazing and also it feels intuitive like using the left joystick to move to that I hope this. The only thing that kind of march that experience while other mechanically I think the market for immediately was like -- you -- go up and like. 8085%. Of the time to shoot him in the balls. Because that's the first time that the radical turned threats of that's when you're gonna yeah we're executing guys in the -- that I have is that at the something really bad battery to get up that -- they've they've killed you pursue -- like. Paul fastball fastball that whatever its award and like those different little pieces. The little. And yet they're all broken up buying it really compelling story very like surprisingly compelling as that man. It's not on the level of tombstone -- anything."

" Promise of that treasures attracted to (%expletive) load low last known him for raising money. Are you talking about us little --"

" Six that treasure is nothing but a theory to."

" You it was a kind of tracks like tennis that is the enemies. Yeah I think you put it best when you. You pointed out that it's kind of like they look like puppets when they move sometimes you know it and it looked a bit. It you know over exaggerated sometimes that's it for their actions so that still the writing -- great voice acting within the top notch now."

" With a treasury who didn't live at people's -- Like -- She's. May -- the weapons. The one thing that really jumped out of me was that two areas like. Twice in the game we go to these little and -- a little shop there -- those using guns in this like someone had posted on the Walton could take -- from. You can hop on a horse. -- really far across the land until you get to the -- case in point. There's little things that happen along the way like there's you know you can rescue people that are being attacked by Indians are being attacked by outlaws. And then you get to hear mission the mission through differences like relations between that'll like just. -- kinda came out and yours as well now a little -- world it's certainly an open world game effort you know these three missions that I can do or can go straight back into your game and continue on with."

" The story that that's you gotta be carried to the entire game this kind of like."

" Mixing up the game -- so much and while that was really appreciate it I I think overall I kind of felt it pull wires. Offers lots of really interesting game play and it doesn't adequately. I think that's for coming and because it wasn't it wasn't like anything I did in the game was extra fun it was a really good. What is that none of it was backed up like all of it wasn't a little educated them."

" But -- stated they did all of these different things they -- the ball really well and I had a really really fun time. Might be one of the tape might hear game that -- here. Yeah because it was it felt that it -- that his position on that's like horribly under represented and videogames and I I get it from what it's fun perspective using -- Hundreds of John -- automatic weapons completely decided -- but it's such a good job of putting in the -- that is great art direction for a time sort of wanted to see him if you like being able to walk wouldn't -- that this is a much stronger game and father was part of what went into that I think -- but. Is gorgeous program thanked me they did a good job like setting up these why businesses and you know with the -- like broken Rockies in the."

" Background single player slightly short six hours on the dot -- like five minutes of 52 seconds totally gonna replay and replay has promised yet expect. It doesn't -- lacking at all the story feels completely jam packed so many environments -- so many things that you -- even after six hours I was like. -- that if you have a lot."

I also questioned adding multiplayer to uncharted, but I had a lot of fun with the beta. I play a lot of gears 2 online so the cover based shooting is really what attracted me, climbing and shimmying up things is also something that I really enjoyed. Like it was stated in this episode I think the multiplayer will just be icing on the cake, really sweet delicious icing.
