Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction

Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune
Biggest Disappointment of the Year
Lair
Best PS2 Game Compatible with PS3
God of War 2 by a landslide. This was the only near unanimous category with only two people voting for something else.

Summary
Many very close votes, but no ties. Uncharted won four separate categories! No other game won more than one.
Not to take the discussion to the shotbox, but come on..? Nobody likes all games, its that simple. Some like the mother, other like the daughter 
Keep your "hate-articles" coming, Gary!

Can’t disagree with that really. Uncharted is a stellar game.
Am I supposed to say “Woo! First post!” or something now? ;-p

I haven’t played the full game yet, but from the demo, Uncharted looks a little boring. I will definitely give it a shot but I’m skeptical.
And did no one else like Manhunt 2? Or Kane & Lynch?

I was never interested in Manhunt 2, since the first game bored me after a while. Kane & Lynch had many flaws, as pointed out in OPM (as well as PS2-grade graphics), so I didn’t bother with that either.
Uncharted is anything but boring! It’s great to play, tells an awesome story, and has a hell of a plot twist for the last part of the game. I’m currently on my 4th play through, it’s that good. I started gaming at 8, I’m 36 now, and I’ve never previously played a game through more than twice.

Did you play K&L or are you just going off of the reviews? I rented it and had to force myself to try it. I really expected a terrible game based on the buzz, but I actually really liked it. The graphics aren’t anything mind blowing, but PS2 level? Come on, that’s silly.
OK, fine, I’ll buy Uncharted and check out the full game. Based on the demo I was going to hold out for a rental, but you’ve pushed me over the edge. I’m convinced it’s good enough that I won’t regret buying.
