I have not actually played Uncharted 2, but I did come home last night to two gamers playing two copies of said game on two different TVs with their two PS3's. We need insurance purely for gaming equipment.
I don't know about how it plays, but I can tell you - it looks damn pretty. The writing is fantastic as well, I've laughed out loud numerous times. It is like watching a movie. But really, the boys should be the ones to review the game - however, I wanted to let you in on a few life lessons care of Mr. Drake.
1. Ancient civilizations revered those with keen puzzle solving skills and super-human upper body strength. Oh, and insane endurance is nothing to spit at either.
2. Rock climbing is easy - even in the snow, ice, jungle.. all you need is convenient bricks to jut out, and a good running start for your jump to the next platform.
3. (Spoiler) Always trust/go for the down to earth, more "normal" girl. She's cuter by far, and funnier to boot. Well, I can't say that for sure since I haven't seen the ending.. But my gut tells me it's true.
4. When in doubt, shoot it. (I've learned this before, but it's a nice reinforcement.)
5. There are numerous underground caverns, and knowing history is cool. Wait, Indiana Jones taught me that first.. and number 4.. hey wait, and 3 too!
Hmm..

のびのびBoy - NOBY NOBY BOY first impressions
What is NOBY NOBY BOY?
It's a cool casual game where you take BOY, and stretch him anyway you wish. It's kooky, quirky, and pretty fun actually. Aside from stretching you eat up just about anything you can see and fart it out if you are not stretched long enough, like a snake, to hold it. Yes, I realize how bizarre this sounds.
One neat feature is the ability to create movies inside the game. You can create regular movies and also link up directly to a youtube account and upload with no hassles. Check out one of my first movies playing the games,
Another interesting feature is the relationship of BOY, SUN, and GIRL. As the player takes the role of BOY, you stretch him as far as he can and report your progress to SUN (which you can reach by flapping your arms and flying high enough!) SUN then tallies your length AND all the other players of NOBY NOBY BOY that are signed onto the PSN network and updates a world wide length. This length stretches GIRL and when she gets long enough, GIRL will be stretched far enough to reach the Moon and eventually other planets as well. Each new planet gives the player a new area to explore in. I'll write some more feedback as I get more into the game. That's going to be hard though since I have Flower on my to do list as well.
If you're looking for something simple and easy to play you can't go wrong with NOBY. It's a quick five bucks in the States and that can't even buy you a movie ticket anymore.
