for PlayStation 3. I've no doubt that this title will make a big splash in the gaming world, but did you know that it's set to make waves in the Twitterverse too? According to TBBPS, Uncharted 2 will have Twitter integration. Gamers can notify their friends about their online status, trophies, level milestones, multiplayer money, and more.
It's a interesting twist that can be an effective way to market the game after it launches. It's also a little scary. Most of my Twitter friends are gamers and many of them are Uncharted fans. I absolutely don't want to know when any of them have earned a new trophy. Hmmmm, I might have to temporarily de-friend a few people from my Twitter account when the game is released.
What do you think of Uncharted 2's Twitter integration? Cool? Innovative? Pointless? Stupid? Meh? Leave a comment and let me know (please)!

Nice job again Ray, you always post the good stuff =D

Really a twitter integration??? really???? OK now its official twitter is way to big. Really what is the point of this. Such a stupid integration but if makes teens happy that they earn a trophy, I guess whatever float your boats
happs
connecting to multiplayer maybe
chapter completed maybe
reaching a level milestone maybe
everything else is stupid. Why would i ever want to know when a cinema file is uploaded or you earned a trophie unless it the best one you can get like 1000000000 kills or something

I dont have nor use Twitter but its still pretty cool I guess for twitter fanatics
T_Rexx
I think "COOL". And please don't de-friend ur friends. lol

Twitter is a watered down version of facebook. Facebook>Twitter

Twitter is just plain stupid.
DamonTheMoney
I thought Microsoft got the exclusive rights to Twitter with the Xbox?
It works pretty well, I've used it a few times. It's mainly for advertisement I think, people will read a lot about Uncharted 2 and they'll want to know more and then get it. Great marketing strategy.

It only does EVERYTHING.

wow all these features that naughty dog is adding are just giving this already amazing game more value, this makes me glad games go no further than 60 bones. the twitter feature is good for updating fellow gamers on their progress, exciting for competitions, I don't see how its a bad thing it is free after all...who the hell pays for twitter? *cough non gold xboxers

man, twitter has become too popular, WAY too fast. I remember like 6 months ago, i had no clue what twitter was. Now its crazy big. I don't see the point of it, it's just like status updates on FB, but without anything else. This is just going to be dumb, and make people look like the idiots on FB who post the results of every stupid quiz they take

I dont think social networking updates on controllers are not a very good idea i mean sure viewing it and looking at things are pretty cool but most gamers and social lives outside of video games and dont want to send updates every time they do something in a game showing their life wasted into video games im not saying its embarrassing or you should hide the fact that your a gamer just that some people dont really want to show what they spend their time on like spending a year to get an achievement like the seriously acheivement
stJonnie
by controllers i meant consoles sorry for the typo
NortheastMonk
Great idea, but useless if you just want it for the single player campaign.
shagdaddey
when is this twiitter fad going to stop?! !
guillermo316
.......... the stupid thing naughty dog has done since not selling the hunter edition
Kanaye
I, for one, don't like the idea of spamming my follower with my achievements in the game.
Remember TweetCraft? If this is what the concept is like, I'll pass, folks.

I think Twitter is just lame, but that's not my point. My fear is that this will take away from the game's experience: bear with me. Nathan just jumped over a ledge and disarmed an assailant. Instead of proceeding, some will just do this
OMG! I juzt cr0ss3d uh lege an dizarmed un 3nemy tee hee!!
It's as infuriating being in a theater watching an epic part of the film and seeing a light glare of a BlackBerry user texting in the distance. PLEASE. People need to put some stuff down and really appreciate media. I'm not saying all Twitter/Facebook/Text message users are rude or ignorant but it's getting to a point where the ridiculous tide is washing in.
