THE POWER OF BUTTERSCOTCH BOTTOMS
hold on man.. It could be like how the demo was downloaded
There was a 200MB file to download the demo from GoW:A.
The install happens when you use that file I bet.

I like that. Keep health and damage the same, just reduce available supplies. Then you really have to smart about when and what you craft.
So would you say the game lived up to the hype and expectations?

Just finished it. Game of the generation right here you guys. Unparalleled character and story development means i'll be thinking about this game for years to come. Naughty Dog just upped the ante yet again. *buzzing*
Fuck 'em. Just walk into a store and buy that shit straight up. Craft yourself a shiv beforehand.

Any cool examples of the AI? I read one from other poster where he had taken a human shield, allowing him to keep the other enemies at bay...until he realized one had broke away from the group and snuck through the area to get behind him.
This is great. I love when a game I'm anticipating just gets unanimous praise. And this is probably my most anticipated game ever, even more than GTA V

Broke down and pre-ordered. If this lives up to 50% of the hype I'll be satisfied.
Yupp. Something like that just happened. I had a human shield and the enemies that were behind me tried to come closer - as soon as I turned around the backed away. It was pretty cool. They are also flanking you and obviously don't know where you are when get lost after an encounter.
Oh shit. What store? Teeeeeeeell meee.

Yeah, maybe the best introduction I've ever seen. Incredible.
Btw:
Just a general gameplay spoiler... Nothing specific. But I wanted to make sure...
I don't like that when you enter an area and you see many chest high things you know there's gonna be an enemy encounter. I sighed when I saw it the first time. The fights itself are good and very dynamic but this make the game feel too gamey after that incredible introduction... Sorry don't know how to describe this more properly in English.

One of my friends was playing ti yesterday and i asked where and how he got it, his response was "I live in the middle east and its been available in all the stores for 5 days now" Like wtf why would it be available there before here?

Hahaha yeah that happens a few times. When there's walk-and-chat parts and you see bottles and bricks scattered around, you know shit's gonna go down soon. Not really a big deal though.

people already playing online?
How's that possible? Online pass doesn't work yet.

Naughty Dog employees?
Because The Last of Us has the worst release date in video game history.

2 days before official release date...
thanks amazon
Wow i didnt know amazon ships games early. Maybe i need to order from them also. Im afraid too because i sometimes think i might get it late, instead of early. What is your experience ordering from Amazon? Do games usually come early, late or on time?

Ha, just grabbed a soldier, shot him in the head and shot off the gas mask of a second soldier in a spore infested area. His reaction was funny. "Oh God no!", then I shot him, too.

Dat feel when E3 hype is going away and TLOU hype is rising. Only 2 days now.

Never use GMG for Physical preorders, they had a massive backlash with Black ops 2.

You mean you might not buy Puppeteer? ;-;
TLOU hype never went away!
But due to a last minute thing happening, I might not be able to pick it up for another week.

Nyc is letting me down too. Notorious stores for breaking dates are telling me they dont have it. I even spoke to a distributor on the phone and he wasnt giving it to the store till friday, yet i got GOW Asc. a week early smh
Fuck.
Shit.
Bollocks.
What do I do now? They will only give me £20 if I return it, so that's £15 down the drain.

I would say buy it off of ShopTo and you should get it tomorrow though it is £40 you can always send the GMG one back and get a full refund you are entitled to a full refund so I wouldnt worry about it. Actually if GMG havent despatched it send them an email saying you want to cancel it and you should be okay.
Yeah, and if they don't offer the full refund, I'll just put it up on ebay and get the £35 back easily.
Shopto it is then.

Im pretty sure Distance selling regulations means you are entitled to a full refund within 7 days of your purchase. Don't quote me on that but I am 99% sure.

Im 3 hours in. I had to stop at 2:00 am last night. I have work today.
So beautiful. there are times when I stopped and just looked up. Crouched by a window to watch the rain.
I am fully immersed in this atmosphere. One of the most gorgeous looking games I have seen since Uncharted 2. If you told me this was first generation PS4 i would have believed you.
Yup, it's been available here in the UAE since last weekend I think. Why didn't Sony release this worldwide before the E3 slaughter-fest exactly? Such an idiotic release...
If it was 1080p/60fps I could definitely believe this.
Sorry for all the questions, but does anyone know how much more to the game there is than what was shown in the trailers? The one thing I hated about Uncharted 3 is that I've seen most of the footage from trailers, demos etc meaning that there was no real element of surprise. Really hope that isn't the case here

So the general consensus is 15 to 20 hours right? That's awesome. I love long games because I get my money's worth and I love "linear" games because I actually finish them rather than get sidetracked by a vast open world
So a long linear game with a bleak dark narrative, an awesome premise, tense violent combat, and Naughty Dog-quality graphics, atmosphere, and animations? That's an instant GOTY for me.
Only maybe GTA V or Watchdogs could beat The Last of Us IMO.

I know what you mean. I think that's why I like U2 more than 3. It was a surprise while with 3, all the major set pieces - cargo plane, horse chase, city chase, desert, sinking ship - were all revealed in the trailers.

My friend that works at gamestop just sent me a picture of the game in his hand....just one more day pretty much.
As long as it's not as terrible as Far Cry 3 or the Assassin's Creed series, I'm happy.
Sadly, I can see the game being bloated with pointless activities. It seems to be Ubisoft's trademark.

Yeah the prices have crept up, haven't they? Can't fault the service though. I still use them for that reason.
I imagine Watch_Dogs is gonna be the new Ass Creed, which means the first one is gonna be repetitive out the ass, yet nice to look at.
