If it gets to 1 week before lanuch and there's no enhanced footage, then I'll be concerned.
Expect to see the improvements to gameplay within the next 2 weeks. Hopefully.

Agreed. Fps, as a genre has largely been stagnant since the original Crysis. I replay that game once a year, and fuckin' hell do I get excited the second I jump from the plane...
Collapsing Predator style tree physics... What happened to that!... Oh yea, consoles didnt have the power to push those physics, let alone other things like AI.
I was expecting some footage at E3 given Sony's not so strong first party lineup for 2014. I'd probably get it regardless just to have on PS4, but the preorder early comes from trying to maximize the PS3 trade in value and the 10 dollar price drop. Plus I'm just starving to see some of the game.
I'm guessing they'll put together a video shortly after they go gold. Probably just trying to see what improvements they can get in there while maintaining framerate. Might as well make the video once everything is in place so it's as accurate as possible.
It sounds like the game still hasn't gone gold. They probably didn't want to take the time to get together something for E3 beyond the little they showed. At this point they are most likely not going to put together anything meaningful until the game goes gold.
I'm excited to see the upgrades, but I think I'm going to skip any videos they put out. All I needed to hear was 60/1080. I've already played the game a bunch, but at least seeing the upgrades for the first time (however small they wind up being) will still make it seem fresh.

A new strategy guide for the remastered version? For real?...
I mean I'm a huge fan, but come the fuck on.

It probably also includes walkthroughs for Left Behind and layouts of the DLC maps that weren't in the original release.
More shocking to me is the fact that strategy guides still exist.
I didn't buy the original, but I bet as far as strategy guides go it sold a lot. The original selling well is probably more than enough reason to put this one out.
EDIT: there are spelling mistakes in that link, that doesn't bode well for the actual guide.

Yeah they are pushing this to the wire it seems.

What? You can clearly see a drop when the head explodes. It's the PS3 version.

I buy them occasionally as collector's items. I still have my FF7 strategy guide from 1998.
Damn after starting to read the first few words the only thing that popped up in my mind was
gameplay, but this is good also.
ohh thats great.
But I'm scared on the grounded difficulty. lol

Since us Americans aren't looking likely to get that steelbook case, I went ahead and bought the Survival Edition of the original on eBay. I foolishly decided not to get it the first time around, so that artbook will be a nice compensation for spending more money on this game.
Are we going to have another spoiler thread for all the first timers?
It's worth it.

Awesome looks like I'm going right for Grounded playthrough.

HEY!
I want this game... like right now
Agreed.
Was just cooking some lamb chops on the charcoal grill for dinner and was thinking "I wonder if Joel can remember the last time he had lamb chops on the bbq"
And then it hit me, I really want this game now cos I'm dying to replay it.
You're not the only one. Jeez, I can already see the whole process when the game arrives. It's right in the front of my eyes. I will take the disc out, shove it into my console and while it installs, lock the door, let the blinds of my room down and literally dive into the game. The only times I'll leave my mancave in the first week will be for food and hygienic purposes.HEY!

My body could not be more ready.

They are amazing for MMO's or RPG's like WoW, GW2 or FF

"hello?" "this is vagina"
There was a console release, with much of that intact.
The hindrance is more often unambitious design than lack of power.
They are probably announcing Gold within the next week and I'm expecting videos at that time.

I'm going to go through on the top difficulty level after completing it on the PS3, turn off listening too.
Should be an enjoyable experience, especially that generator sequence.

OMGGGG I had a dream last night that I was living inside the remastered version of this game. The first thing that hit me (in my dream inside the game) was the amazing resolution but then I noticed that the lighting was off, washed out. Moments later the lighting changed because the updated game had a day/night cycle! So weird
Stupid dream, a day/night cycle wouldnt even make any sense in this game.

Thank god!
I was worried I'd have to work my way up through the other difficulties again to reach grounded. Thanks ND!

If I buy the US PSN release and the EU Steelbook Edition, do I get 2 separate trophies lists and save data ? How did it work on the PS3?

This has probably been asked, but is there a non-First Day edition in the UK? It seems to come with a load of shit I don't want, so I'm wondering if there's a less fancy, cheaper version?
That is already the cheap version and 38 GBP is the MSRP for the UK.
If it only has to be a UK shop but not necessarily the UK version, then you can buy it from http://www.365games.co.uk/ps4-games/the-last-of-us-remastered-ps4-game-- for 4 GBP less.
Oh nice.

Yeah there is a non-first day edition, I ordered it a week ago for £29.99 from 365games.co.uk although price has gone up this week. 365 games also sell the US retail version if you want uncut multiplayer.
Cheapest price at the moment seems to be GameStop £30 and includes pre order bonus.

Not if you want it on Day 1. First Day Edition = Preorder / first shipment

I enjoyed Survivor a lot but tbh I think Hard is the most fun difficulty. Survivor just makes it a bit too hard to experiment since your supplies are so low, whereas I think Hard is better balanced with just the right amount of items.
Real men disable Listen Mode anyways

No online passes on PS4 (at least from Sony published games).
You set your US account as primary, but your main UK will still be a primary account. You can have as many primaries as you want on one PS4.

Just pulled the trigger and ordered this game. I've been holding back since the PS3 launch and thought fuck it. I cannot wait, It'll be a nice present to return home to after my holiday to Amsterdam.

I had to enable Listen Mode on my Hard play through because the checkpoint had me up against a group of guys with critical health. One hit would kill me. It was pretty frustrating.

You're describing 'Normal'. Stealth kills are the most rewarding IMO. There are section where you can sneak through without even engaging the enemy if you are very very careful, but it's more fun to kill them ALL quietly ... plus you get all the necessary collectables to survive the next area.
I can't emphasise this enough: Search every single nook and cranny and make sure you have a shiv handy. That's all you need to know.

Sounds like normal difficulty would be your best bet. Although i found normal difficulty to be really easy, but that might have been because i played it on hard first.
