E3 2009 wrap: Best, worst, and weirdest games and tech

From Microsoft's no-controls 'Natal' to Sony's PlayStation 3D motion sensor to Nintendo's quirky Wii vitality gauge, what was hot -- or not -- at this year's E3.

Antidote for the Awfulness of Indy 4: Uncharted 2



Uncharted 2 -- Naughty Dog's PS3-exclusive sequel to my pick for game of the year 2007 -- looks better than ever, boasting some of the most impressively detailed exotic environments the system's yet seen. As a helicopter spit gatling fire, the protagonist dangled from the lips of crumbling ledges, hurling himself across gaps between bursts of bullets. He scurried across rooftops, ducking behind boxy protrusions for cover, leaping over debris with ease. The demo ended as the helicopter raked the building, ripping out walls, windows, ceilings, and pretty much trumpeting "Look at all the stuff we can make go boom!" --Matt Peckham
