Uncharted 2: The Lab Weekend August 06th to the 09th

REMINDER: The Lab – Co-op Crushing

     The Lab is back with some custom Co-op fun. This weekend Uncharted 2: Among Thieves has opened with the Lab. The Lab is open for Uncharted 2 every other weekend with various experimental game modes. This weekend's Lab game mode is Co-op Crushing. What this means is all of the original Co-op game modes (Siege, Survival, and Gold Rush) are available in the hardest playable difficulty in Uncharted 2, Crushing. 

      With all honesty I am not impressed with Naughty Dog this weekend. I believe, this may or may not be true, that because of this weekend's Lab, all games that I have entered this weekend have lagged, been slow, and even have glitched out. I have no sure idea why, but I believe that because of the Lab, all game modes have been crappy. I really do hope that they fix this problem soon.

     Now for a simple and brief review of this game mode. First of all, I have to give props to Naughty Dog (even though the server quality this weekend is so far horrible) because they have, in my opinion, given the players of Uncharted 2 a challenge. In this game mode players will need to stick together to the best of their abilities. In one game I had found myself alone on the side of the map opposite to my team. This did not end well for me because I was taken by surprise by one of those annoying hostiles that grapple you into a choke hold. Due to me being so far away from team mates I was killed and out for the round. Another tip would be to have Bluetooth headsets. These communication devices give the players a more cooperative and team like experience. Informing your fellow players about where hostiles are after you have died and are viewing the multiple camera views all over the map is a good way to progress through the game.

     I am glad to report, not so much ashamed, that the highest round I have gotten too this weekend is round four. This proves that Naughty Dog has provided a challenge for the new and addicted players of Uncharted 2. There are 10 rounds total for all cooperative games. Good luck and have fun this weekend!
