This is a huge warning to every one watching the reviews tomorrow. IGNORE ALL COMMENT SECTIONS.

IGN, Gamespot, Gametrailers, Sessler, etc. - please reconsider blocking the comments section. There will be trolls in the wild. It will be a blood bath.

Also be wary of google autocomplete searches. They pulled some nasty stuff with Game of Thrones on that one ;)
 
I have avoided anything spoilery successfully so far, essentially being on a media blackout.

For the reviews, I will literally scroll down, look at the score and that will be that

Or you could always just stick to the GAF thread and look at the main OP. Unless review sites actually start confirming whether or not they will begin blocking comment sections on the title's page, I'm out -_-.
 
Shit like this wil get you killed one day.

We're safe on GAF though... right??

Probably not, maybe its best to visit this thread and other TLoU threads and start reading 10 pages behind, to make sure if someone spoils something the mods will powerbomb them on to a table or if someone slips up, they will spoiler tag their stuff.

Its some form of safety, but if you refresh a thread, you can never be safe

Should but there are asshats even here that risk getting banned just to spoil the game.

Anyone remember when someone created a thread for Halo 4 outing the ending? It got tweeted by NeoGAFNewThread's Twitter, too. :(

Makes me remember when someone on GameTrailer's Heavy Rain trailer posted who the killer was in the comments. What an asshole and obviously ruined the game's story for me. =(

For some reason, my review copy of The Last of Us is very late. Regardless though, based on what I've heard, this game is going to be gooood.
 
You can get spoiled anywhere. It's really difficult to avoid spoilers but I guess GAF is a safe place most of the times. But yeah, avoiding comments sections of major sites is a good precaution.

Welp... well fuck that, I'm going dark on TLOU threads then!
 
Tomorrow is a different story
I don't mind spoilers (and I haven't seen the latest GoT episode yet), but you're going to piss off a lot of people with this GIF.

On topic, I can't wait to see the reviews for TLoU. I thought we were the 5th already...
 
I'm really excited for the game but there is a shitload of hyperbole going on with it. The game may end up being incredible, and it does look very very good, but I haven't quite connected with people I guess when it comes to like... buying a PS3 just to play it. Roughly $300 or more just to play one game? There haven't been other PS3 games to entice such a reaction in the last what 7 years or so? Not sure what it is about this one that is sprinkling magic fairy dust onto the PS3.

Again I think it looks terrific and I hope it is, but I'm going into it with considerably less hype than most people from what I gather. I hope everyone's hype doesn't end up backfiring.

So its coming from arguably one of the best devs. this generation and the game looks solid, but its hyperbole? What i do see is people not wanting to give credit where credit is due and that is to say Naughty Dog are just that good.

Also another game did get just as much hype and that was Uc2 by the same developers. After its showing and previews the hype was astronomical and the consensus is that it lived up to the hype. Arguably the highest rated exclusive this gen (yes Mario galaxies scored higher but also had alot less reviews aggregated into the score, which i think isnt fair when comparing because Uc2 had well over 120 reviews aggregated in its score increasing the probability that it would get scored lower)

Based off demo and whatw eve heard i bet you the hyoe is warranted. Of course there will be ppl to go against the grain and others paid off to lower the score but hey thats life.

Wtf... I have dodged GoT spoilers for almost a week and I get hit in a fucking review thread for TLoU with a damn gif that is probably nsfw on top of being so goddamn inconsiderate.

Only a fucking jerk would post shit like that.
 
Ha! Good thing I'm reading the first book and haven't watched the show so I don't know what that is or was. Cut that shit out though.
 
God damn that spoiler!!!! I watch this episode in 3 hours with my wife!!! Noooo! NOOOOOOOOOOOO! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
