Uncharted 2: Among Thieves Begins!

Picked up Uncharted 2: Among Thieves last night. The game has received rave reviews universally, and they aren't lying. From the outset the game is a blockbuster, with incredibly detailed environments, great action, and amusing and dramatic writing and voice acting.

The story is told, at least in the beginning, as a series of flash-backs, and I'm really into the hook. I'd love to know just how Nathan Drake ended up hanging out over a cliff from the back of a frozen trainwreck. That's pretty much the guy's life in a microcosm.

I've only just started, but I have the feeling I have a wild ride ahead of me.
