One day I'll get back to playing this and Ratchet. I got totally side-tracked by Rabbids, Dragon Age, NSMB Wii and now AssAssin's Creed II.

How far did you get in UC2?    Oh and before I forget, was that you who called in to today's Hotspot podcast?   The unidenified caller made the same (well articulated) point you did about MW2's insiduos promotion a few weeks ago.

Last night I reached level 50 in multiplayer. As I said in the podcast, I have logged over a hundred hours in the MP mode so far, and, surprisingly, I'm not tired of it in the slightest. From now on, elite levels 51 through 60 (which is the current cap) are replaced with roman numerals (from I to X) and the exp (money) required to level up increases dramatically.

I'm quite proud to say that I don't use DTI/FF and still hold my own on most matches. I don't know if I'll ever reach Lv 60, but so far it's been one hell of a ride.

Sometimes. If I play naked it breaks the balance in the force. Too much win in me. I have to restrain myself.

You win because people can here your giggling through the mic and they KNOW that you are nude. So they curl in revulsion from the trigger.

LOL Once I was playing with dvader, and I asked him for some favors...of the sexual nature, with an open mic. Everyone in the lobby heard and they thought I was hitting on him. LOL

LOL Awesome!

Seriously though, what I say is true. Imagine you were a real soldier in some warzone and in the midst of battle some naked guy, giggling just ran in front of you. Would you shoot? You'd stop dead in your tracks as if you just stepped on a mine.

And THAT is why you win Kupo.

LOL It's amazing to hop around in random teams, face a high level full party with a ragtag team made of lower levelled players, and listen to them trashtalk their asses off in the pre-game lobby. Then, as the game progresses, they eventually become mute. By the end of the game, they are calling all of your kills "cheap" and you a "bitch" for killing them.

Resurrecting this topic as I'm playing the games for the first time now.  I finished the Drake's Fortune today and will most likely start Among Thieves tomorrow.

I was going to write my thoughts on the first game here but as it's not the right topic, I may just put them together in a review.

Weird. I recently got back to the game for more multiplayer shenanigans. If you want to do some co-op or competitive MP, I'm your guy.

Thanks Steel.  Bear in mind my connection has previously proven to be laggy when playing online but it could be fun, at least for co-op.

If anyone cares to read my review of Drake's Fortune, here it is.  It's a little all over the place because I couldn't get to grips with the review writing layout in place (I was trying to write a "simple" review but it kept showing up in the "advanced" format and half the text and the score was missing etc).

i'm in level 5, Nepal.  so far the game is great.  it seems a lot more colourful and beautiful than the original.  the locations are much more varied as well.  stealth sections are a nice addition.

still no bosses though Sad

Steel promised me boss fights Sad

I think bosses in their traditional form are a crutch -- I never particularly enjoy them unless they are in a game like SMG.  

I'm more open to levels as bosses and more creative ways of raising tension.

There are like three. There is a setpiece in that game which will blow your mind.
