The multiplayer for Uncharted 3 will have several new features over Uncharted 2. To begin with, there will be a more cinematic flair to the multiplayer, in keeping with the campaign.  Certain levels will now have events that will change the way you approach each map. One example shown was “The Airstrip,” which begins on a cargo plane with trucks chasing it and players jumping back and forth. Once the plane takes off, the map switches to the runway and hangars.

Boosters have also been significantly altered. There will now be a set of paid boosters that you can drop cash on during a match to activate. You can also activate kickbacks which are awarded when you collect enough medals. Once you do, you can use them to unleash things like RPG attacks and many other perks to give you the edge.

Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception will be one of the biggest games of the year, the Naughty Dog is making sure that the multiplayer can live up to the promise of the campaign. So what do you want to see from the multiplayer? Sound off below in the comment section, and the first twenty people to reply with what they hope to see in the multiplayer will receive a code to grant them access to the multiplayer beta that goes active on Tuesday. And go!

Ok, so the original 20 codes were claimed within minutes!  So we asked, and we were able to get our hands on 200 more.  So, if you missed out on your chance to win a beta key for the upcoming Uncharted 3 multiplayer, here’s your chance!  Simply post in the comments below, and next 200 people that chime in will receive codes!

Luck is a strange statistic in a game like Stardew Valley that not many tips and tricks guides will spend much time covering. There are a few ways you can increase your luck through items, which leads many people to assume that the rabbit's foot would be one of, if not the best, item for luck. While this little charm works wonders as a gift for other villagers, it isn't all that lucky on its own. If you have had no luck getting a rabbit's foot, we'll show you the guaranteed method.

PS5 overheating: common problems and how to fix
Playstation 5 with controller in the foreground,

The PS5 overheating problem has once again become a hot topic amid the release of CPU-hungry games like Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered and Dragon Age: The Veilguard. Gamers have been here before. Four years ago, when Cyberpunk 2077 and Ghosts of Tsushima released, comment threads were full of cynical gamers questioning what next-gen truly means after their consoles had randomly shut down mid-gameplay. Plenty of the best PS5 games have been met with similar feedback over the years.

Fortunately, overheating doesn’t rank among the most common problems with the PS5, but gamers should know what to do to prevent it, especially with such graphically impressive upcoming PS5 games slated for next year and beyond. First, though, you need a proper diagnosis.
