The Last of Us (Naughty Dog): Hold One Second

So this is why Uncharted 3 was disappointing. Because they split in half and worked on this at the same time. Lame.

Of everything thematically different they could have made to Uncharted, with some of the best tech in the world, they essentially make the same thing but with a zombie apocalypse. Creativity is dead.

Baha, wow, talk about assumptions through the ass in this thread
 
Ign:

Naughty Dog has posted more details...

"Abandoned cities reclaimed by nature. A population decimated by a modern plague. Survivors are killing each other for food, weapons; whatever they can get their hands on.

Joel, a brutal survivor, and Ellie, a brave young teenage girl who is wise beyond her years, must work together if they hope to survive their journey across the US."

Sorry if posted.
 
I think there's a reason they are focusing on Ellie. She'll be the lead.

I bet one of then is going to get killed somewhere along the game. I mean look at the title, the last of us...

The game looks great, I'll buy it no matter what, but I really hope it isn't "Uncharted 4: Now with Zombies!!!"

As much as I loved U 1 and 2, I felt a little underwhelmed by 3...it didn't grab me by the balls as 2 did.

Also, there's no release date on this right?

Unfortunately I doubt it's a 2012 game...hopefully I'm wrong.
 
The amount of generic they packed into the trailer really is quite impressive.

*yawn*

i hate to say it, but i feel the same way :( there was not even a hint of originality there... just so predictable and yes, generic.

however the game can still turn out great of course, especially if it mostly focuses on the survival aspect. i'm not into zombie games really but it would be awesome to have at least a semi-open world where you're constantly hunted by decent AI, and have to find hiding places and medical supplies and stuff. i'd be so down with that. and with ND's technical skill it could be glorious...
 
Every game in the world is scripted. And there is nothing wrong with linear.

Basically what I'm trying to say is that I hope they do something new and different with the gameplay.

Just hoping that the bulk of the gameplay doesn't consist of the same kind of platforming and shooting/brawling and all the same gameplay conventions as UC. Don't want UC in a different setting, want to see something completely new and different.
 
From the trailer it does not look like open world. Regardless, I cant wait. They are the best in cinematic setups. Add horror/survivor and I cant wait.

Is it sad then that I'm excited for this because it's overdone?

I'm a big fan of the zombie genre, and up to now, I haven't found one recent zombie game that wasn't complete shit in some way. I'm hoping this is THE zombie game....

The fact that it's overdone won't come into play if the game experience and gameplay and such are spectacular.

Personally I don't give a shit about 'new' or 'novelty'.

New and Novelty never equals a quality experience in gaming world.

As long as the game combines proven fun factors and mix it well, and present it to us gamers with nice, combined package, that's all I care.

Part of me thinks it almost has to be significantly different for ND to split their studio and simultaneously dev two IP's (especially when one is moneybags).

I mean, I guess they could be really similar, but ND doesn't seem the type of studio that would pursue a new IP if it didn't offer some new ground/challenge.
 
Fucking zombies again? No thanks. Getting tired of zombies in games and other stuff. I'm just sick of it at this point.

I'll pass.

Not only that, it looks ripe to be pretty much a co-op required game (or be forced to play with a half assed AI character), which makes it an instant pass anyway.
 
I hope too finally see a survival horror game where you can use vehicles like tanks, jeep, helicopter, etc. to kill monster and zombies. hehehe
 
I still can't get over the fact that ND is developing this, hopefully it does not put too much strain on studio as a whole(despite the fact that there may be two teams now). Loving the premise but would like to see how it plays. Still, HYPEEEED
 
Most likely not, judging by those graphics. But who knows? We don't really know anything about the gameplay at all yet, other than it will have "survival and action," which is very vague.



Yeah, it's kinda funny.

They really should've shown at least a second or two of gameplay. Kind of annoyed by that actually.
 
They're not zombies. >_>

People are using the term zombies as a broad term for an enemy that has lost higher brain function, that feast on humans, and will seek out and kill humans.

Zombies or Jombies. Who gives a fuck what they are called. Thats what they essentially are.
 
I don't care very much for horror-themed games, so when I first heard the rumors about this game in development, I paid almost no attention. However, after reading that Naughty Dog is involved, I'm certainly more interested now.
 
I just want to know ANYTHING about the game's structure. Is this an open world game? I always wanted an I am Legend/Omega Man kind of game where you explore a ruined city procuring supplies and shit, with safe zones/times.
 
Actually, they render Uncharted cinematics on PS3. They've said so, and showed where/how they render them. It's very clear they render them under the very same engine as the game is using anyway.


That picture of a girl is the best realtime character face I've seen in any game on anything. I guess the closest thing I can think of would be BF3 characters (which still look more artificial and animate badly in comparison) or UC3 characters, which are much more stylized.
She definitely looks the most realistic,but the guy not as much..maybe be main character?

#thelastofus of is Naughty Dog's 4th franchise and the game I've been working on for the last two years.
Seems its been in development for quite some time. 2012 release maybe?
 
trailer looks pretty cool.

if it plays like how i think a sandbox game version of "I Am Legend" would be then it'll be awesome

Safe zones? Fuck that shit. We need some Demon's Souls kind of gameplay here. No pause button. No safe zones. And very limited ammo.
 
I hope its like Skyrim or GTA where it is an open world, a sandbox type of game. This is the reason why we dont need ps4 yet because ps3 still has lots of power and we still have allot of great games to come next year like this game, FFversus13, last guardian, bioshock, etc. I hope too finally see a survival horror game where you can use vehicles like tanks, jeep, helicopter, etc. to kill monster and zombies. hehehe
