Sony has just announced a partnership with AMC Theaters to put Uncharted 3 in to the hands and eyes of gamers early, in 3d… AND ON A FREAKING THEATER SCREEN! Click READ MOAR for more deets.
That’s right, some lucky gamers in 5 chosen cities will be able to play the game early on a movie theater screen. The events will take place between October 18 and 20th, allowing viewing of the game, multiplayer battles and a meet and greet with many Naughty Dog employees to talk about their favorite parts of the game. Regular passes will be $25 and include admission to the venue and the chance to win Sony prizes, however the great deal will be the $60 premium passes. The premium pass gets you the game before it’s actual release (that you will have shipped to you starting 10/25/2011) which is probably the greatest preorder value there is. Unfortunately, I don’t live in one of the 5 cities but if you do you should try to check this event out. The 5 cities and theaters are:
- San Francisco: AMC Metreon 16
- Los Angeles: AMC Century City 15
- Washington D.C.: AMC Tyson’s Corner 16
- New York City: AMC Lincoln Square 13
- Dallas: AMC Northpark 15

To be 100% honest I really don’t care about all the “event” stuff, but getting the game earlier o_O damn. Almost worth doing a road trip ha ha.
True, but as gimmicky as it may be I still wouldn’t mind seeing it in full 3d glory on a GIGANTOR screen. The $60 premium pass is the greatest deal of the year! You get to go to a kinda cool event AND get the early?!?!?! SCORE!
Totally worth a roadtrip since like you said you get the even AND the early release, plus your already going to have to spend $60 bucks on the game might as well get all the extras
