WOW sony i was not expecting this!

Basically from the trailer what i picked up is that

- The game looks amazing if its gameplay (as you expect from naughty dog)

- Everyone is infected like zombies but one of the zombie things looked like something different

- Set in a city which is deserted and everything is overgrown reminded me of I am Legend

- 2 Characters features one a young girl and one an older man

- Guns (pistol) & knife shown

Naughty Dog brings us a brand new World wrought with devastation in this PS3 Exclusive title.

WOW still shocked

[#2]

Yeah, sorry, I didn't post the link because the embedding on the official site is really weird and I didn't think it would link, and the only youtube link I could quickly find of that video was filled with un-family friendly youtube abuse of the worst fanboy variety... so I decided to wait and hope that Wretched_Hawk could weave a magic moderator wand of a decent quality vid... ;)

And regarding the bust... so often I've been tempted for a decent Alien xenomorph bust, but damn they are expensive.. lol..

[#3]

Could be a spoiler for some people.

http://kotaku.com/5910930/i-just-saw-the-last-of-us-in-action-and-it-looks-amazing

( I Just Saw The Last of Us in Action, and It Looks Amazing ) is what the link above is about.

and might i say, sounds good so far lol.

[#4]

Ohhh very nice :D Sounds awesome!

[#5]

All we need now is a little more news on co-op? It would be good if two people could play through the game together? Well that's what i believe anyway lol

[#6]

Hmmm could well be... it would be nice and it would open up possibilities for some events to run perhaps. Guess we'll have to wait and see whats announced in the future... I hate waiting :)

[#7]

Any news on a release date or expected in what quarter?

[#8]

No news about release so far that i know of.

Don't know if these ( Old to New ) Ellie screenshots have been posted up, but heres some anyway lol

Do you prefer the old Ellie or the new Ellie?  http://www.sonyrumors.net/2012/05/16/naughty-dog-reveals-ellie-good/

I like the older model shown as it looks more detailed throughout?

[#9]

The one good thing about the change is it shows just how much thought, work & extra pollish they are putting into this game!

[#10]

2013 Release date?:

http://kotaku.com/5916150/the-last-of-us-wont-be-out-this-year

Also here is that lovely gameplay video!

[#11]

Kotaku have a nice piece up on their sit down with the game behind closed doors!

"Joel and Ellie can take a breath now. They scoot towards an elevator shaft and climb on top. Ellie slams the hatch shut, and you can hear the cables reverberating in the shaft. Every sound effect in this game is deliberate. It adds to both the tension and atmosphere. I'm sitting on the metaphorical edge of my seat and wondering if this is strictly an environmental add-on or if there's danger ahead. Joel boosts Ellie up to a landing above. The cables continue their vibrations. Just as he's about to climb up to join her, the cables give way and both Joel and the elevator fall to a watery drop."

[#12]

Ignore :)

Couple of new articles about the demo/hands on etc:

[#14]

Gosh, I am SO excited for The Last of Us.

I was moaning when pictures first surfaced of the characters because I thought Joel looked too much like Nathan Drake. Silly complaint really and it doesn't bother me now.

Some of the screenshots and the E3 gameplay video look epic.

Why can't it be out tomorrow? :smileysad:

[#15]

Hi Ellie87,

Does this make you more excited?

http://www.latenightwithjimmyfallon.com/blogs/2012/06/sonys-the-last-of-us-demo/

[#16]

It sure does! Thanks for posting the vid Hawk! I'm confused though, I've read on some websites that the game is being released in 2012, while other sites say 2013...They need to make their minds up!

[#17]

No probs. I think the date got pushed back slightly but I don't think there's that much time in between old date and new hence the confusion - I could be wrong though. Still has TBC on PlayStation.com.

[#18]

wonder if it's now 2013 as they said they're going to change the look of ellie and may take a bit of time.

was hoping for a little look at another part, the vid above is the same they showed at e3 - still awesome though!

[#19]

I'll keep my eyes out for anymore and make sure its embedded here as I did with the Beyond gameplay one ;)

[#20]

One has heard on the grapevine that the date has been changed to 2013.

I would love for the game to be a 2012 release :smileysad:

Ah well, at least I'll have Borderlands 2 to sustain me for a while!

I wouldn't hold your breath with Gearbox's usual fasion of delays :D

I see a lot of people said the same regarding Bioshock Infinite before that got delayed..

I bet there's more games to fall past Christmas yet :(
