I'm sure I'm not the only one pumped for this game. If you've been to the PS3 threads lately I am sure you've seen all the Uncharted 2 threads. The game looks awesome, from what I have read in reviews the game seems to be a large improvement over its already great predecessor. And I wasn't too excited about online but the beta really convinced me Uncharted online could actually work. The standard deathmatch was a blast, and even though the beta only gives one short co-op mission it was a blast. I'm excited to have a whole set of online co-op to play.

But as good as I am sure the online co-op will be, I am very disapointed that there is no local split screen co-op. Actually no split screen multiplayer of any kind. I'm not the only one who still enjoys split screen, right? As exciting and convenient as online is, nothing will ever be better than beating our friend and laughing about it right there with him. Or playing through some co-op levels and discussing strategy face to face instead of over mics.

Nevertheless, I am excited for this game. I am going to pick it up after work tomorrow (great thing about working at best buy, even though I am working I can just pick up a copy and set it aside for myself to make sure there is a copy waiting for me at the end of my shift) And a sweet thing is the best buy employee discount is cost (the price bestbuy pays) plus 10%, which is great for a lot of things but usually on new videogames you end up saving only a couple bucks or even sometimes the retail price is cheaper. But I looked up Uncharted 2 in our computers to see the cost price and for some random reason it's a good $10 cheaper than the cost price of any other new video game. Very weird but works out nicely I'll save some cash when I buy it.

And one last thing. I am considering picking up Demon's Souls cause it looks so awesome and I want a good action RPG to get into. I was considering buying Oblivion but Demon's Souls looks awesome and looks like something I would really like. I am worried about the difficulty, though, so I'm not totally sure I should get it. I'll be busy with Uncharted 2 for quite some time so maybe ask for Demon's Souls for Christmas. Any thoughts on this? Have you played the game and is it totally unbearably difficult, or a good challenge?
