Aftonbladet.se game of the year award 07

Aftonbladet.se nominees for the game of the year 07 award list makes for a fun reading, sad but still fun, Aftonbladet is Swedens biggest newspaper so it´s a big letdown to see them put up games like kane and lynch dead men but not Uncharted, drakes fortune..

Now, aftonbladet is as bad as they are big so it´s of no real surprise but seriously, no one claiming to be serious can put up a game of the year award for 07 and feature kane and lynch and not even have uncharted on the list.

Uncharted is amongst the top games this year, regardless of platform and Assassins creed is a good game but still with alot of issues and repetitive gameplay so while it deserves it´s place on the list for it´s environments alone and artistic merits Uncharted still is alot more fun and with higher value points, sure it´s all about personal preferences in the end, but not even having it on the list is a joke considering some of the games being featured, i mean, crackdown wasnt directly a showstopper and the darkness was a big letdown both technicly and storywise, still a good game tho but still far worse then Uncharted, drakes fortune and well, we shoudnt even mention Lost planet making it to the list, talk about a supbar experience, didnt entice me enough to play it a second time after giving it a few good hours the first playthrough, heck Warhawk which is a multiplayer only game for a very affordable price on psn is ten times as fun and looks better aswell.

Which reminds me, warhawk´s missing aswell, quite funny to see two of the best ps3 games not even show up while quite mediocre games from other platforms is there, the only decent ps3 games to be nominated is heavenly sword and ratchet and clank and motorstorm and resistance.

funniest thing is, More brain training from dr Kawashiwa is nominated.

Update: Even more fun, i just discovered that uncharted, drakes fortune is listed as one of the best newcomers so it isnt even that they missed the game or forgot to mention it, they aparently think the nominees are better. A well, to each his own, taste is individual. Anyway, click this link and vote for Uncharted.

Uncharted, drakes fortune, concept art

awesome looking concept art findings it´s way to the web from the naughty dog crew.

x360 new wave of Live ban

Yes, as mentioned previously we do have an x360 aswell as our beloved ps3, but x360 doesnt get to much loving except for the few times our youngest wants to play by himself in his own room, and no this post doesnt apply to us since we dont modify our console and never will, no need to burn games since we dont play that many so if we want a game good enough, we´ll buy it, if not we´ll just check out it´s demo on psn and live, which in the case of the ps3 game uncharted: drakes fortune actually ended up with us buying the game since it was so much better then expected.

But anyway, if you have a modified x360 a new wave of baning has started, seems to include modified dvd firmwares and dvd +-/r discs.

Uncharted, second review

Another praise, 9.5 out of 10*´s.
Claiming it to be nost just the best ps3 game but one of the best games ever, regardless of platform.

uncharted,drakes fortune review

Uncharted, one more review

And what a review, the reviewer whom loves Microsoft´s lineup of games claims this is the first must have ps3 title and that he for the first time found himself sitting there, wondering if this game even could be made on the x360.

Even without such loving words it´s a real nice interview, focusing more on the fun factor and feeling of the game then the technical mumbo jumbo.

Having played the demo like most of you guys i can only say that i preordered this game right away after finishing the demo for the second time, tons of small and very neat details and pure fun is what makes the drake ride tick, great game and great demo, the first time this year a demo made me go from hmmm we might get it next year on sale to preordering a game.

Uncharted, 9 min long video from naughty dog

If you dont want to know anything about the game, dont watch this movie, but if you´re dying for some more Uncharted loving, this is a great movie, showing off both gameplay, behind the scene stuff like ai awareness and comments from naughty dog dev´s.

ps3.Uncharted drakes fortune,preview

Our first play on Uncharted: Drake's Fortune showed its potential to be a superb adventure that mixes tactical shooting, platforming and Hollywood movie-style action scenes together in one huge quest.

A pretty looking game thus far and with a theme and vistual style that´s very appealing this is a game im looking forward to even tho it´s not a must have so far, but we´ll know more once it´s out.

But for now, that qoute will have to make due until you hit the link below and find out more in the preview.
