    I just picked up my copy at Gamestop. Doesn't seem to be any different from what I played so far. My roommate is already *****in' about the controls "why the X button not makin' me jump?". :ha:


    Uncharted looks cool. I played the demo, and enjoyed it, but it didn't wow me at all. However, once I'm done with Creed, I might just turn it in for that one.

    Any framerate issues?

    I've played it for about 3 hours tonight. Let me add a few things to my review:

    1) There are some frame-rate drops, but I only noticed it when there were almost 50-60 people on screen, and there was heavy movement (battle going on, multiple animations from several characters). Even then, it did not distract from the gameplay at all, and was short lived at that. Not an issue in my book.

    2) Some glitches with the climbing and can get somewhat annoying when you're trying to escape. Small issue, but still, an issue nonetheless.

    3) The A.I. is not as bad as reviews or I remember. Enemies will not stand in line and attack, as they appeared in earlier versions, and will occasionally even gang up on you; you'll need to have your finger close to the parry button often. Also, while there still are some head-scratching A.I. moments, it wasn't as pervasive as the last time I played.

    Ultimately the only review that matters is your own.

    What is graphics tearing though?

    Never heard the term in my life. Another word for clipping issues, which this game has occassionally when climbing, usually when things get pretty hectic.

    The reason you've never heard of it is because it's actually texture tearing, it's basically when the texturing of objects mess up causing weird artifacts.

    The big problem seems to be the freezing people are experiencing. It's happened once in about 7 hours of playing so far, and it is suspected that it's a problem with the Firmware update (2.0). I've read that turning off the info bar solves this.

    I rented it earlier today. Haven't gotten a chance to really get into it, but I like what i've seen so far.
