Somewhere in Holland, a dike holding back a slew of new Uncharted 2: Among Thieves screenshots and concept art just broke wide open. Full-resolution screens from an area in the game not seen in either of the two videos released thus far have appeared on Dutch gaming site XGN, and are quickly saturating the rest of the 'net.
Naughty Dog has confirmed via the NeoGAF forums that these are, in fact, in-game shots. They show protagonist Nathan Drake shooting, sneaking up on, and grabbing a riot shield from new, decidely non-piratey enemies. There's also been a breach of a reservoir carrying concept and character art, one piece in particular showing Drake's new sidekick, Chloe. All told: head explode?

'WHATEVER. The truth speaks for itself. I and everyone in here knows that what I've said is the truth.'
'You're the typical arrogant sony fanboy. Grasping at straws to justify your waste of money.
2 hearts'
You called someone an asshole when you felt your opinion was undermined, yet you imply here that everyone who thinks the ps3 is great is an idiot and is in fact delusional.
Yeah, thinking your opinion is the only right one and more important than that of ps3 fans, not arrogant at all.

I see you have now gone over to attack LBP, not that I expected anything less, was reading the comment and as I read waiting for that attack, bam, there it was at the bottom.
I have a fascination with Greek Mythology as well Lord :D Maybe that's one thing we have in common, however, I go an actually reference my fascinations, not base them on a game. God of war isn't a representation of Greek mythology, it's just based upon it. If you really had any interest in the subject, you'd be doing what I do, researching and reading books about ancient mythologies and culture. Even I a god of war fan don't look towards god of war for greek mythology refeneces, God of war to me is just a game I play for fun with a subject I happen to love, I bet I could fire a few greek history citations at you now and you'd have no idea what I was talking about, even then it would prove pointless because you could just as easily go check it out on wikipedia while I wait for your reply, but hey, whatever rocks your boat.
How did John McCain get into this? We aren't talking politics, that died when Obama was elected, I don't even want to know about McCain any more unless its to do with what he is doing to help America press forward.
Lol, Versus IS exclusive, unless news changes sometime between now and release, as far as I remember it was exclusive, and whether or not it is, I know for sure you still wouldn't buy a PS3 :) Call it intuition ;)

What's your point? You do know that some games, like Ico sold terribly, yet they are considered some of the best games of all time. Sales do not always equal good.

It looks just as good as Gears of War but the Art direction is way better.

this looks flippin amazing. as long as this one doesnt have stupid zombies in it it's a lock for me. i still haven't finished the first one because of those damn zombies at the end. sure the entire game led up to it, but dammit they don't fit! they change the entire style of gameplay for the last 3+ levels. great game otherwise, hopefully to be great series. go Naughty Dog.

The game looks ok, don't think it's worth buying a PS3 for though.

Y'all can expect the final version to not look near as polished as these target shots. Sony is really dirty with these target screens and trailers. It's almost annoying- Motorstorm, Killzone 2, Resistance, and others... The game won't look that good when it's finished- don't argue with me, just look at the in-game videos of KZ2 and the trailers Sony tried to force on us... Hell, do the same thing with Motorstorm.

Just like the devs of KZ2 claimed of earlier screenshots and such. You'll see when the game is released.

That just sounds wrong. On the other hand,
"I never met a dike I didn't like" - Lenny Bruce
Screen shots look great.

Is this game all shooting, or does it have some platforming/exploration?

Never got Uncharted. But I have always loved Naught Dog, I was afraid this game wouldn't turn out so great.
LBP and MGS4 were awesome, but heavenly sword ect. fell flat to me. Is this going to be more like Heavenly Sword or LBP in terms of quality?
