Uncharted 2 and Reviewer Twitter Death
How many review copies of Naughty Dog's Uncharted 2: Among Thieves exist? Apparently too many, or at least too many with the Twitter function turned on. Updates from reviewers (not our reviewer - he despises Twitter) have apparently been flooding the social networking system.

Naughty Dog 'co-president', Evan Wells, tells the world:

"...so for the time being we’ve disabled Twitter updates on chapter completions. The option will still exist in the menus when the game ships on 10/13 (October 13th), but if activated, it will do nothing. Some time after the game has shipped, we’ll release a patch to reactivate the feature, but with a limit on the frequency of updates.

"We’re certainly sorry for any inconvenience, but I guess that’s the risk you run when trying to blaze a new trail in the complicated world of Social Media!"

Either that or there are thousands upon thousands of review copies out there, and everybody is playing it on easy.

Yeah, I didn't think the Twitter updates was such a great idea, it had too much potential to be very annoying. That aside though, Uncharted 2 is definitely my game to watch right now. Intense combat, great platforming, engaging storyline, and FREE online co-op over PSN?! If you don't have a PS3 yet, October is the time to get it!
