"Is that an ancient Tibetan ritual dagger in your pocket?"
Uncharted 2: Among Thieves is a phenomenal video game, which isn't a very controversial opinion to hold. It put the series, from Sony-owned first-party developer Naughty Dog, on the map in a way that the first game didn't quite manage, informing the stylish, cinematic direction of many of its contemporaries to this day. Protagonist Nathan Drake would go on to join the pantheon of PlayStation's many mascots, and Naughty Dog would become its most prestigious studio. As of 2015, Uncharted 2 has sold more than 6.5 million copies alone.
Geoff Keighley, host of The Game Awards and a gamer who was actually there, reflected on the game's legacy on the 15th anniversary of its North American PS3 launch. This kicked off an outpouring of fond remembrances from the game's many, many fans. Among Thieves director and writer Amy Hennig herself said: "Can't believe it's been 15 years! So proud of what we achieved with this game - great memories!"
