The Last of Us (PS3)

Re: The Last of Us (PS3)

I don't like how you state Uncharted games are crap. It's a highly acclaimed series, and because you aren't fond of em doesn't make em crap.

No the piss poor repetitive AI of *shoot-shoot-shoot-toss grenade so you back out of cover-walk up and get shot in the face or repeat previous sequence over and over until walk up and get shot in the face* and not having an original idea make 'em crap. Like many big games it was clearly reviewed on hype alone (or payoffs ) instead of what the game actually is.

Luckily the mutant things in this can't throw grenades or use cover so it's at least slightly more intresting. Though not original at all and if I was playing it instead of watching it I'd probably be annoyed by the "plank or dumpster every 2 minutes or your money back!" thing they've got going on there. Hardly seems worth the 10's it's been getting. 7 I'd believe.

I love the multiplayer, they just need to increase the win bonus if you play survivors. If you sweep it's impossible to keep 60+ people alive and healthy.

For you guys who have beaten it, I just wanted to know about how far I am into the game or if I have to extend my rental some more. I just finished:

Spoiler

Just finished the part where we (Sam and Henry) got split up in the sewers, just got outside

About Winter (mild spoiler):

Spoiler

Anyone else get a distinct Hunger Games vibe? I mean, little brown haired, red coat wearing Ellie in the snow hunting a deer with bow and arrows?

Goh, you complain every game you play. That's fine. But do not come in here and ruin the thread because you are watching videos of it. This is not a watch and see game. You need to play it to feel the true greatness.

This game is honestly more about the story than the gameplay, which is still very good. I don't see the point in trying to talk ill of this game, there's very few problems with it and it doesn't help if you nitpick and look for issues. That's just not an enjoyable way to play games.

Re: The Last of Us (PS3)

I just ignore Goh. Biggest whiner I have ever seen about video games.....ever.

Anyway..I am 30% of the way through. And I am loving this game more and more each minute I play.


I have learned running away....is a good thing.


I will get in a marathon session tonight. Can't wait!

I agree with all this, I just give Uncharted a pass because I love the story and characters so much. I just couldn't get into the story of Last of Us so all the Naughty Dog faults were glaring for me.

I think Naughty Dog is a talented bunch but I really wish they would open up their games a little and trust the player without having to hold his hand the entire time.

Like a bottle of Coke-a-cola you forgot in your car, I went to bed last night feeling all...

Warm and bubbly on the inside.

I just finished up

Spoiler

fall

at 75% completed and yet AGAIN ND amps up the narrative and just perfectly drives all the men on base home.

This story is really grabbing me. The way Joel

Spoiler

leaves his brother for Colorado on horseback with Ellie

was written so beautifully. And the way Ellie has

Spoiler

demonstrated her affection for Joel as a father figure of sorts

is just so well executed.

ND let's you see inside Joel's heart. Not only with the phenominal writing and voice acting, but with the stunning visuals and facial expressions as well.

I've never wanted a game to never end like this before. I'm sort of sad to say that 25% from now it will be over.

GOTY everyone. GOTG (G=generation)? If the last quarter of this game keeps this up, it may nudge Tell Tale's The Walking Dead down to a commendable second place for me.

Re: The Last of Us (PS3)

One of the few times I've ever gotten absolute chills in a video game:

Spoiler

When Sam turns and Henry has to shoot him, and then kills himself. Just absolutely devastating. Just goes to show you how well written these characters are.

I was like...

Spoiler

"No!!!! (Whisper) Oh God."

It was like it actually happened in real life right in front of me.
