Hm.
More details?
Viral marketing. Booooooo!Here's something for you. Note the no poly environment (That's worse than low poly right ?):

Also in HD - the only thing I get is a black screen.
Overhere too. Damn you Sony, this better have a REALLY good and plausible explanation for this cock up. I waited 1 hour in front the !*ç/+ download screen for this one.
I can confirm this, it just stays at a black screen when i try to load it! When i try o leave the game, the system resets itself!
what the fuck? You mean I am currently downloading it for nothing??????????????????? I have a PAL PS3!!!!!!!
My impressions:
Oh my word. Just amazing.
The shadows are detailed and not blurred out to nothing like in games like Halo 3. You can see the leaf detail on the shadows, the the leaf shadows move to the sway of the trees.
Water looks great. LOVE the effect of the water on Drake.
Looks amazingly clean but totally detailed.
Environments look amazing. PS3 games as of now have ZERO problems with textures. If these devs can do it, then it's obvious that the PS3 can do it.
Enemy character models and Drake himself look flipping awesome
And what can I say about animations? As of now, scripted stiff animations are last gen. This is the first next gen game for animations. The animation blending is brilliant. Other games have good animations, but just in scripted scenes like in Mass Effect during dialog. This game has amazing animations as you play.
Gunplay is great. The people who knock it are those who haven't played it.
The facial expressions on Drake add a lot to this game. Again, anything with stiff expressionless facial animations are last gen from this point on. And the variety is sweet.
Back to the trees. Wind seems to effect the trees as it moves from one area to the next. It's not like the trees are just swaying to nothing. A gust of wind will move from say the left to the right, and the trees will move more accordingly. Awesome.
Demo impressions for me: 10/10. I would for sure give the edge to this demo over the R&C demo, which was also stunning. But this one ups it for sure.
10/10
The graphics, I was worried because usually when you see a small video on the internet its hard to tell whats what fully, and the compacted resolution of the video can really hide a lot of visual problems or bad looking graphics. When fully expanded to proper screen size sometimes when you play a game, the final product or the demo it doesn't look very good. Well...
.. This is different. Uncharted is amazing looking. The graphics are superb. The water looks very good, the forest is alive with flora and fauna (Plants, etc.) and it really REALLY looks great. The leaves are so smooth and have great texture to them, all the plants look different and it REALLY shows off how amazing a game can look on the PS3. You really gotta see it to understand how good they are. The Jungle is just so impressive, its so pretty to look at! You want to play the demo just to take another look around. The ruins all over the demo are very nice looking as well, and up there on my big 60" they look just amazing. The character models are very nice looking and the animations for reloading, shooting, running and jumping are all very good. I really like his big long jump when going for a ledge. It is a very slick game, thats for sure.
The sound is nice too, good use of what they got - and the voice acting, well is very good as well.
Game play, the most important part. Its quite good, although this is just a small glimpse of the final game, in terms of range of things we get to do and weapons, scenarios, etc. So far, so good. I really like the platforming in this game, its a lot different than any other "grab the ledge, jump this, etc." game. Its so smooth and it looks really bad-ass.
The game just looks SOO darn good. The Jungle is alive with green and water, little birds and vines everywhere. The graphics are just that great.
Very good demo. Very excited for the full game, which I have on preorder. YES.
AAA++++!!!!
It´s on the US store, europeans are not supposed to have it yet. There is your reason and excuse..
