A little extra latency is nothing more than a small obstacle now that we're able to stream pure, uncut Nathan Drake directly onto our PS4s and undiluted into our eyesockets. With Uncharted 4 due out later this year, now is the perfect time to re-immerse ourselves in the tale of plucky adventurer with a heart of gold. When we've had our fill of that, we can jump right into the 3 player online co-op and run some unique missions to squeeze every last drop of story possible out of the 2009 release.

Good games never die. They just get cheaper. Unless they're rare. Then they get ridiculously expensive, but I digress. Luckily for us, and fans of good games everywhere, Sony is offering all of Uncharted 2: Among Thieves DLC for the low, low price of el zilcho. That's right. It's all free.

This weekend marks the one year anniversary of Uncharted 2's release on the PlayStation 3. To celebrate this, developer Naughty Dog is having a huge online celebration for the game offering 5x the amount of cash available in each match with no cap. It's a great chance to level up your player quickly - especially if you just picked up one of those swanky GOTY editions. This is available in all modes including the game's cooperative modes.

Every year during the fall season the biggest names in games from the previous year like to launch a special bundle of their title called the Game of the Year Edition. These typically include bonuses, dlc, patches and more rolled into one disc for a nice discount.
Although normally devoted to competitive multiplayer modes, this weekend's The Lab - an experimental custom playlist that is featured every other weekend - ramps up the difficulty of two Uncharted 2's Co-Op Arena modes.

We were all surprised to see a new piece of co-op content coming to Uncharted 2, especially after so many denials it would ever happen. Yet, Siege Mode is upon us, and Co-Optimus sat down with Naughty Dog to get the dirt on co-op gaming in Nathan Drake's world, and what we might see next.
Despite a new co-op mode "not being likely" we got information about a new co-op mode coming to Uncharted 2 via a leak. Today we have the official announcement and screens straight from Sony and Naughty Dog that unveil the next piece of content to be released on April 22nd.

Yesterday I joked that the Uncharted series hadn't yet seen a PSP port, and that surely an announcement was forthcoming. Scott from In Game Chat and Mike were quick to call me out, but despite our clowning around Naughty Dog is hard at work on new material for Uncharted fans.

In a recent interview with G4TV, Naughty Dog Co-President Evan Wells talked a bit about the game's cooperative modes, and the possibility for adding content to them. Uncharted 2's co-op is broken down into three modes: Objective, Gold Rush and Survival.

"The treasure is in the plaza" says Nathan. All that stands in our way is a gigantic swarm of enemies that will lay their life on the line to protect it. Or perhaps they want to steal it themselves? No matter, our trio will shoulder on and steal what is rightfully ours. If a few goons go down in the process, the world will be a better place for it.
Not to be outdone by Gears of War 2, the boys at Naughty Dog are having their own double weekend in Uncharted 2 - but instead of double the experience they are giving out CASH! Money! MOOOLAH! Ok, so it's only in game money, but it sounds better than XP, no?

The television ads for Uncharted 2 posit that it is indistinguishable from a movie to intellectually-deprived girlfriends, and to a certain extent, you can count me in with that statistic. For the first half of the single-player campaign, the relentless pacing, huge set pieces, wisecracks and other moments of levity really make you feel like you're in control of a huge Summer blockbuster. Seriously, even the tutorial segment is intense.
