I think possibly my favourite gaming moment was when you are in the Cathedral taking orders from the crazy artist, then you learn hes not on your side and it goes all silent, thn the classical music begins playing and splicers start swinging from the ceiling down the staircase at your face lol.

Pure brilliance.

Also like the bit at the start where you see the shadow of the woman with the pram >.>;

It's kind of sad how many people think story in games is(or should be) a thing of the past.

Stories are not a bad thing, but making it the majority of the game is a bit excessive.

"Mr B, Mister B."

"Come on Mister Bubbles, the angels are waiting for us."

*Splicer screaming* "Get them away from my beautiful face!"

Oh for anyone who hasn't played Uncharted 1, the demo is on PSN. Uncharted 2's demo is on there too but you have to look for it. Not sure why it isn't on the store's frontpage.

Yeh thats true, I guess it depends on the purpose of the game? I.e. adventures rpg's are largely judged on the story and how involved the player becomes with the journey, drawing you into the various scenarios and provoking some sort of emotional attachment to the game characters. I think its down to the monumental increase in the online market, don't know about you guys but after I had played a few fps, racers, rts online it just wasn't the same against the computer anymore, so unfortunately the storytelling element of a game seems doomed to die out with the success of trigger happy, plug in and play games like Halo, COD etc (saying that Halo had a fantastic storyline, however it is overlooked by the online capabilities).
