Uncharted 2 multiplayer demo coming next week

by Justin McElroy { Sep 8th 2009 at 9:00AM }

We had a lot of fun playing in the Uncharted 2 multiplayer beta, but it was sullied somewhat by how exclusive it was. With every gunshot, we were reminded of a friend who couldn't get in on the festivities, and it just made it a little tough to enjoy. Luckily, we'll be able to fire away with a clear conscience when the public multiplayer demo drops on Sept. 15.

Our hope is that you'll be having so much fun you won't realize that the first two sentences of this post were bald-faced lies.

Is that JUST for people with the GameStop preorder?? or is it everyone??

golobulus @ Sep 8th 2009 9:13AM

that is what i was going to ask. you can rest assured there will be no answer till the 15th.

golobulus @ Sep 8th 2009 9:18AM

i'm wondering why it wasn't specified either.

how is it that under the returning tab, i get my email and pass correct... yet the message "You did it!" pops up telling me to activate my shit? other times, no activation needed.

tmacairjordan87 @ Sep 8th 2009 9:37AM

Preorder only

Cool. I cant wait to play this again.

GS is also doing an "exclusive" MAG beta too for pre-order too.

deaftly @ Sep 15th 2009 11:07AM

JimmyHACK @ Sep 8th 2009 9:19AM

creyes4182 @ Sep 8th 2009 9:19AM

You guys are in for a treat the beta was awesome :)

kentuckyfried @ Sep 8th 2009 12:33PM

I hope so. I really didn't get around to it b/c I was busy with other stuff at the time. =(

kentuckyfried @ Sep 8th 2009 12:35PM

Silly question, but in Uncharted 2, can you switch which shoulder you're looking over?

I went back to Uncharted 1 several weeks ago and noticed that this could be done, but I didn't have the chance to verify that this was still included in U2.

Dark @ Sep 8th 2009 3:46PM

you could switch shoulders in the earlier beta

chillski @ Sep 8th 2009 9:21AM

YESS some more demo'ey goodness comes our way via psn... god i love downloading demos, makes me think of the old days when we had to have games that came with demos' or we'd have to buy gaming magazines to get one lol

golobulus @ Sep 8th 2009 9:23AM

i'm about ready to let off a rant on this commenting system and the bullshit there in. i mean wtf!

anyway, like chris was asking... is this gamestop only or what? "public", i would think...includes everyone.

tmacairjordan87 @ Sep 8th 2009 9:39AM

Seeing as I hate Uncharted's multiplayer, I'm considering giving away my voucher to someone here. It all depends on if my friend is going to preorder so he won't have to game-share with me when I download it. cause he really wants to play it.

Ashitaka @ Sep 8th 2009 11:44AM

Cool story bro!

lenandude0 @ Sep 8th 2009 9:42PM

Dude if you could give me your code that would be amazing. My PSN ID is lenandude.

I didn't hate the mp, but it just wasn't for me. The shooting mechanic seemed clunky, and the controls were too heavy for a good shooter, even though it is third player. But hey, that's just me. I know lots of other people were happy with it.

Still looking forward to the single player where I'm guessing the controls will be perfect for an action game. But for multiplayer I'll hold out for MW2 or MAG (and MAG is awesome, really it is).

Maulok @ Sep 8th 2009 9:52AM

I'm boycotting Gamestop, but I'm excited for the public version of this demo! Oct 1st is it?

jarhead906 @ Sep 8th 2009 10:34AM

Ditto.

notlupus @ Sep 8th 2009 10:44AM

just do what I do,

pre-ordered from gamestop and got the card....cancel the pre-order a couple weeks later or transfer to a new game....

pre-ordered from best buy and got the card, cancelled and pre-ordered marvel ultimate alliance 2 instead , netted one gold code

haven't checked game crazy yet to see if their bonus comes on a card , might do the same there if it does, also gamestop pre order bonus is early access to the beta and basically a perk you earn later in the game...

Craig @ Sep 8th 2009 10:31AM

I just went wee-wee in my pant's a little.... : \

Uncharted 2 will be a day one buy.

Stephen @ Sep 8th 2009 10:35AM

Jake @ Sep 8th 2009 10:48AM

gnarlynarz @ Sep 11th 2009 11:35AM

Whether intentional or not, clever use of the word "sullied" when in reference to an Uncharted game is just great. I applaud thee, sir!

(Because, you know, Sullivan...right?)

:D

SNAkE @ Sep 15th 2009 8:20AM
