Still have to finish 100%ing this game on PC but I liked it! I've been pretty critical of this game and for some reason only remembered elements I didn't like or staled, and those still suck, but on replay I really fucking like this game. The combat can get pretty repetitive, and the stealth missions are donkey ass, but at its core these people get spider-man enough for me to have a really fucking kick ass time. Most of my big gripes with this game are really small nitpicks that nag at me constantly, like how the traversal isn't what I'd like it to be (actually web swinging is somehow the slowest part out of moving through the city. Web zipping and point launching are way faster when it should be reversed. Web swinging is fast as fuck and the other two are ways to keep up a good swing. Instead its the opposite? Hate that), but even things that I think are actual room for improvement like how the first act is kinda pointless and a lot of the setpieces remove control for the sake of cool visuals that lose luster, really fall away once you're in this thing. Knowing the story and where it was going definitely helped my enjoyment but eh who cares. I just had fun enjoying the parts of this I like and skipping past the parts i know I dont and when you do that its a really fun game. The ending parts after the second to last boss fight are some of the best spider-man writing ive ever seen ever. Glad I replayed it and really excited for the sequel

It feels weird to talk about this game. On the one hand, I'm able to see it as the Indiana Jones styled rip off of tomb raider that so many people claim it to be. On the other hand, it's my favorite game of all time. I think if you see Uncharted 2 as nothing more than shallow cover to cover shooting with boring climbing sections and nothing in between, then I think you're missing the point of what a cinematic action adventure game to be. This game never existed to have complicated climbing or super in depth shooting. It tries nothing more than to entertain, and it does that fully for me. Its exciting, got some of the best character writing of any game, and is legitimately the best action movie of any video game ever made. I love it
