Who’s ready to play Uncharted 2 beta? (PS3)

August 12, 2009

Who's ready to play Uncharted 2 beta? (PS3) Uncharted 2, the sequel to the highly acclaimed Uncharted Drake’s Fortune is about to hit the store shelves this holiday season. However, before it does, the studio behind the game is preparing another massive beta to iron out the kinks. Who’s ready to play some Uncharted 2 beta?

Uncharted Drake’s Fortune is considered to be one of the best looking games to date. The game raised the bar with narrative, voice acting, and graphics. The sequel to the game is about to come out and it has the attention of many gamers. Its interesting to note that Uncharted 2 stole E3 with the most number of awards from the conference.

Gamers have had their share of disappointments with online gaming. Battlefield 1943 was unplayable for the first few days, and Fat Princess suffered some connection issues in the beginning. Naughty Dog wants to skip all the issues and get you straight into the gaming.

Naughty Dog wants to make things go as smoothly as possible launch day and that is why the studio is holding two separate betas. The next beta will be starting near the beginning of next month. According to Play.com, the beta is set to start Sept. 15.

It is not clear who will be able to gain entry into the beta currently, but it is assumed that those who pre-order the game will be the ones to get first priority. There is some indication that others will be able to gain access to the beta without pre-ordering the game as well.

Interestingly enough the last beta included over 130,000 testers and it is assumed that the next one will target a much larger pool to really stress the servers. Uncharted 2: Among Thieves is slated to hit the store shelves Oct. 13 in the U.S. and on the 23rd in Europe.

  1. Roca.:

    first!!

    lol =D

  2. Ivan_PSP:

    I will be in that beta for sure. UNCHARTED 2: Among Thieves looks perfect plays perfect will be perfect. The first beta was perfect. Naughty Dog only makes perfect games. I love Sony’s gaming developer they always make games perfect with no lag SOCOM for PS3 is exclude.

  3. Ivan_PSP:

    Gran Turismo 5 Prologue has sold 3.94 million
    I bet UNCHARTED 2 is gonna sell like 10 million by the time they start making UNCHARTED 3. Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune has sold over 2.6 million. UNCHARTED 2: Among Thieves is gonna sell way more then the first because U2 is better and has online play which was awesome the beta. Also it has a fan base build and is prove is a great must have exclusive. You can record your matches and share them that’s awesome too. This game is gonna make HISTORY. The movie is in production also since June 30.

  4. lock_down:

    3.5 million tops, but whoever misses out, well it’s their loss.

    Single player just looks incredible. Not too big on multiplayer, but will definitely check it out.

  5. me_:

    “Gran Turismo 5 Prologue has sold 3.94 million”

    Is that the best you’ve got Ivan?

    Mario Kart Wii has sold 16.9 million

  6. CAD:

    10 Million sales. LOL Oh it’s a shame that such a good game will never reach it’s potential because it is canibalized by Sony. Those Sony studios should leave and become independent like Bunjie did because their efforts are wasted being Sony exclusive. Talk about a waste of talent/resources.

  7. phranctoast:

    CAD covets PS3 exclusives? Amazing. Although…I can hardly blame you. You can’t simply pick them up on the PC if you don’t have the “other system”

  8. CAD:

    Even if it was on PC It would not matter to me as I don’t do PC gaming. I would buy a PS3 before you can get me to game on a PC.

  9. Barnabe Jones:

    The first beta did run as smooth as possible. If that is any indication, the next beta, and the launch should be perfect.

    I wasn’t really that excited for the multiplayer at first, but after I played it, I can tell you that it is great. Playing 3 player co-op during the missions adds a whole other dimension to the game. The Treasure Hunter games were fun also.

  10. SW:

    I found the servers would crash every so often, but it wouldn’t boot you, just ‘reset the game’, which was neat.

  11. Roca.:

    “Even if it was on PC It would not matter to me as I don’t do PC gaming. I would buy a PS3 before you can get me to game on a PC.”

    Since since the PS3 can Play PC games (with a PC/PS3 gaming application) then we should all be fine with all 360/PC games

    I personally finished Gears of War 1 on the PC through my PS3

  12. Barnabe Jones:

    I remember that they did patch it after a week or so, but I don’t remember what the issues were.

  13. Barnabe Jones:

    CAD, after the price drop/slim are announced, I suggest you pick up a copy of both Uncharted 1 & 2. Great games.

  14. Arvis:

    “I would buy a PS3 before you can get me to game on a PC.”

    Same here, I’d get a 360 WAY before I dedicated myself to PC gaming.

    -Arvis

  15. Happyhockum:

    Arvis

    I don’t think you’ve got to ‘dedicate’ yourself to PCs (its not like you must pledge your 1st born to never again use any other platform ;) ).

    Some games suit a PC very well, RTS certainly & PC COD4 was superb.

  16. SW:

    You PC haters can, well, continue hating I suppose :(

    Happy hit the nail on the head, and is the most awesome person ever unlike the PC hating Arvis…

    Pffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffft.

  17. Barnabe Jones:

    I think the last FPS I played on the PC was the original Doom.

    Did anyone get a beta invite for MAG yet? I didn’t but it looks like they will be adding people as they go. I usually do get invited to these.

  18. SW:

    I hope I get an invite.

    Due to the greatness of bf1943 I can now actually manage to play FPSs on consoles now :D

    Hook me up a 256 player laggeriffic slowdown rumble (if you’ve played planetside, you know how it is).

  19. lock_down:

    I worry about MAG.

    I really don’t understand how Sony are going to make money hosting such a huge game 24/7 on a free network.

  20. SW:

    Lots of working advertising boards in a warzone ;)

  21. Ivan_PSP:

    lock_down:
    Sony is gonna allow games to be hosted like Warhawk dedicated PS3 servers. Even thought Sony is also gonna have their own main MAG server. That won’t be a problem.

    Gran Turismo Prolouge is a PSN game dumb asses and i wasn’t trying to say anything i just wanna other people to know it did awesome.

    CAD:
    Those studios are wholly owned by SCEA and they will never sell them for anything in the world. Those studios bring a lot of millions with their awesome exclusives.

  22. Roca.:

    ****MAG BETA****

    I got an invitation for the MAG beta…I filled out the form and this was the reply.

    “Thank you for your interest in the MAG Public Beta. If you are accepted into the MAG Public Beta you will receive an e-mail with further instructions. Please note, we will be adding people in waves and so if you do not receive an invite for the first wave you may still be invited in a following MAG Public Beta wave. Please do not register again, you only need to register once for the MAG Public Beta to be eligible for all waves of the MAG Public Beta.”

  23. Ivan_PSP:

    Damn i hope i get in i have gotten in Home beta Killzone 2 beta Resistance 2 beta Warhawk beta illegally also the UNCHARTED 2 beta i need to win a invitation so bad.

  24. harry sachz:

    That’s not an invite. That’s a confirmation that you have applied to be in the beta.

  25. Ivan_PSP:

    harry sachz:
    I know that.

  26. Barnabe Jones:

    Yeah, but you have to be invited to apply though. I’m hope I get one. I’m wasn’t planning on picking it up, but if the beta turns out to be good, that could change.

    Ivan – those numbers are for the disc version. They don’t count bundles and downloads. So the game did even better then that. :)

    MAG – they have to have something planned already. Resistance 2 had 60 and never lagged at all, so I think they can pull it off.

  27. Roca.:

    its funny how the 360 struggle to get a stable online game past 24 player

  28. Barnabe Jones:

    “oh but XBL cost money, therefore it is the better network” – In before someone else says it. ;)

    I’m thinking that I’ll pre-order Demon’s Souls myself, and ask Santa for Uncharted 2 & NG: Sigma 2.

  29. Roca.:

    lol the Funemployment business is not going too well?

  30. Roca.:

    I got a friend who work at gamestop and he confirmed that the Company hasnt received any shipping of:
    -160GB PS3
    -80GB PS3
    -Xbox 360 Pro (and the Arcade is only showing the Arcade and the Elite)

    They are all out of those system….it’s hard to fine a PS3 or a 360 pro at Gamestop now days he said.

    so base on that we should expect:

    -1 or 2 new sku from Sony at cheapest one being $299 (PS2 compatibility is rumored, there has been pictures of PS2 games on the PSN store)

    -the Days of the 360 Pros are gone so we should see the elite for $299 as well

  31. Roca.:

    Wolfeistain developer wrote in tweeter:

    “Here’s the deal folks: if Wolfenstein outsells Madden 10 in August I will personally pay for your copy (keep your receipt) – SPREAD THE WORD”

    so you know guys, lets buy more Wolfesitain and less madden, ill rather have a free avarage game and a $60 madden

  32. harry sachz:

    Roca – I got an invitation for the MAG beta…I filled out the form and this was the reply.

    Harry Sachz – That’s not an invite. That’s a confirmation that you have applied to be in the beta.

    Ivan_PSP – Harry Sachz: I know that

    hahahaha Ivan, you forgot to log in as roca to reply to my post.

  33. harry sachz:

    Wolfenstein has a snowball’s chance in hell in outselling Madden.

  34. Roca.:

    Get a life…

  37. Happyhockum:

    Oh look, a thread about PS3 stuff not hijacked by the Xbox side talking about Xbox stuff.

    (A total contrast to every Xbox thread here)

  38. Happyhockum:

    Knighthawk

    It’s been obvious for a while (and this is the 2nd time that’s happened with a harry comment).

    The infantile writing is a give-away too.
    Myt bet is that’s not the only sock he uses here either, there are 1 and possibly 2 other identities here (but haven’t been for a little while lately) with similar traits.

    Laughable stuff…..but kind of tragically sad in its own way too.
    Some sort of ADD?

  39. Roca.:

  43. Ivan_PSP:

    Happyhockum:
    LMFAO you always writing crap get life kid you a delusional Xbot.

  44. Happyhockum:

    Sounds like a very young child in the distance left on its own whimpering away to itself.

  45. Ivan_PSP:

    Happyhockum:

  52. Barnabe Jones:

    “lol the Funemployment business is not going too well?”

    Even better then I’d hoped. I’m going back to school to finish up my degree. I’ll probably pick up a part time job eventually to pay the bills. Until then I’m just living the good life :)

  53. Ivan_PSP:

    Barnabe Jones:
    Good Luck.

  54. Happyhockum:

    Wow, that’s a new one.

    I must check my electrolytes, apparantly schizoboy thinks I’m “diluted”.

  55. Roca.:

    ‘Even better then I’d hoped. I’m going back to school to finish up my degree’

    good choice…its never too late to go back to school.

  56. Ivan_PSP:

    Roca.:
    That’s so true.

  57. Roca.:

    Keep it up lads!

  59. Ivan_PSP:

    So many people play Fat Princess i gotta get into that game too. Everyone seems to adore the game. Since i saw the trailer i knew it was gonna be a major selling hit.

  60. harry sachz:

    “So many people play Fat Princess i gotta get into that game too. ” –> You already have a copy.

  61. Ivan_PSP:

    harry sachz:

  68. harry sachz:

    Are you on drugs?

  69. Ivan_PSP:

    harry sachz:
    Drugs is for losers. I don’t care what fools think but drugs is just a fucking stupid thing to do. Thanks for asking that…

  70. harry sachz:

    Ok, i’m out of ideas then.

  71. Ivan_PSP:

    Good finally. LMFAO

  72. Happyhockum:

  73. Ivan_PSP:

    STFU Bitches Xbox is pure garbage like you Xbots nerds.

  74. Happyhockum:

    You’re just boring now Ivan/Roca.

  75. harry sachz:

    hahaha @ happy, I was half expecting something like that to happen. I hope my bed sheets will never be subject to that light!

    On the topic of Ivan, i’m going to try ignoring him and his alter egos for the rest of the month. Maybe he’ll go away.
