Seth Gordon! I don’t really have an opinion on the guy either way. Saw Horrible Bosses. Shrugged. Saw The King of Kong. Loved it. So he’s batting 50/50 in the minuscule “Movies I’ve Seen By Seth Gordon” department. His next shot at blowing my nipples into a rugged mess? The Uncharted movie.

Oh snap! Hubba, hubba! I had no idea that BioShock Infinite‘s lead was such a looker. Got that typical Nathan Drake swagger to him. It is hard to imagine Ken Levine signing off on this box art, with it being so typical Male Lead Whupping Ass. Aimed to catch the mouth breathers in the aisles! Oh snap! Old salt-and-peppered McGrizzly rolling with a shotty. I’m sold! Whatever. As long as the game is good, I’ll temper my tempest.

Geek satire central Mega64  is at it again, this time with a hilarious send-up of a moment in Uncharted 3. Proving that only polygonal Nathan Drake can be as cool as he seems, they sent a good lad into an actual local flea drugged and stumbling. Mind the half-tuck!

Naughty Dog’s revealed the main  antagonistic  behind Uncharted 3, and she’s a slightly shriveled yet sexy  British  bitch by the name of Katherine Marlowe. The reveal was dropped onto the gaming public today in a trailer that also featured our boy Nathan in a sexy suit, ready for some back alley action. Read into that phrase as you will.

Hit the jump for the video.

I haven’t played Uncharted 2 in a day, and I’m beginning to get the tremors. I got to play with her for three hours yesterday, and I think about her longingly. I blame tutoring, sleeping too late, and being a general loser.

I remember that during the ad campaign for Gears of War, the game was described as having “beautiful destruction”. I thought it just had jacked dudes blowing up other WWF washouts. I dug the game, but there was nothing beautiful about it.

Uncharted 2? This son of a bitch is beautiful. Running through the war torn streets of Nepal, I felt a little guilty. I was just rocking the camera back and forth, trying to fit everything into the frame. Every little demolished bit of pavement was gorgeous. I shouldn’t be marveling at how beautiful a street littered with bodies can be, but I was.

I keep rambling about the graphics, but they’re more than just pretty pixels. It’s engrossing. It sucks you onto that streetscape.

And yeah, it would be nothing, without the gameplay. Fortunately for me, my last save is just after one of the craziest fucking action sequences I’ve ever seen. Spoilers after the jump.
