Uncharted 3 Multiplayer Preview & Video: Drake Can Sprint

Sony revealed two of the Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception multiplayer maps at their E3 Sneak Peek event last week. The multiplayer was pretty neat, offering boosters (also known as perks for those familiar with Call of Duty) and a brand new medal system. You get medals for kills and then can spend those medals on one-use items like a grenade that splits into three grenades. Naughty Dog has also introduced what everyone wants in Uncharted 3 multiplayer: the ability to sprint. Kevin Kelly got to see the long awaited PS3 exclusive in action, saying:

"There are tons of Boosters in the game, and we didn't have time to run through all of them, but they range from increased ammo, to the ability to see your opponents for a brief time after you respawn, to reducing the "pain wobble" when you get shot and "Take A Knee," which will put your character on one knee instead of dying. If a teammate makes it to you in time, they can revive you. It also turns you into a sitting (or kneeling) duck, so you have to watch yourself with that one"
