Journal Entry 1

Today,I started playing Uncharted 2 : Among Thieves and managed to finish 6 chapters.I found that it was like a mix of Tomb Raider,Prince of Persia,and Indiana Jones,especially during the references to lost treasure.I was surprised at how good the pacing of the plot was.It always managed to keep me guessing what's going to happen next with a lot of twists.One of the things I learnt today was that characters in the game like to use the word "crap" a lot.I have also learnt a new term of abuse,which is "cocky bastard" :P

I don't feel that I can really relate to any of the characters,seeing as I have never been in situations such as theirs before.In my future essays,I hope to be able to use the element of suspense and especially with flashbacks,and I think my writing skills will improve because of that.In the next session,I hope to see more variety in the gameplay other than just climbing and shooting.I also had some problems with aiming as i'm not used to controlling using joysticks.Overall,this is a really fun game and I can't wait to play more!
