The Last Of Us · DIGIT-ARC

*i.imgur.com/OywgLwl.jpg

The most anticipated game on PS3 is all set to launch on june 14th. After their uncharted trilogy, very few people ( so called critics) had some negativity towards naughty dog.
Be it weird camera angles or use of scripted sequence, the reasons although being dumb, existed nevertheless. Some also complained their games to be extremely fast paced unnecessarily.

Naughty Dog although riding on their success waves, listened to these critics opinions and maybe, thought of building something completely diverse from their usual set pieces.
Enter "The Last Of Us". Out of nowhere, they came up with the idea of a completely new IP with teasers and hype to start with. Many claimed that this would be too similar with uncharted, sharing same lines. All those speculations are finally put to a stop.

When some gameplay videos and a demo appeared, people and reviewers were surprised to see a striking change. Although the plot is set around a post apocalyptic world, the gameplay was expected to move at higher tempo. But its completely the opposite. It tests the player and gives time to think and analyze the surroundings at a much slower tempo than uncharted. The story seems to be flawless including the setting. Hardly has a flaw to fix.

Coming to the visuals part, many were stunned at what they are looking at. " Is this a PS3 or a PS4 title" was the first and foremost reaction of many reviewers.
At its 7th year in the industry, the PS3 is already setting huge bars for its next gen brother. This game proves what the cell architecture is all about and what the PS3 as a whole unit is all about. Everything, from the textures, shadows and dynamic lighting appears next gen and marvelously rendered. Character models are exquisitely detailed and show a high level of emotion. Flora and fauna fit in great and add to that some brilliant water effects and simulation that arguably surpasses Crysis 3. :shock:

Naughty Dog definitely knows how to use the cell processor efficiently, even with such low memory. They quickly are becoming the best developers out there.

Enough of me talking. Lets get to some links to back my comments :

The Last of Us Review for PlayStation 3 (PS3) - Cheat Code Central

PlayStation 3 isn’t only well-known for its number of exclusive games, but for the sheer number of quality exclusives. That’s what makes The Last of Us even more impressive, because not only does it join the ranks of Uncharted, Killzone, God of War, Infamous and more, but it bests them all. In short, Naughty Dog has crafted a game that impresses in virtually every way. The Last of Us is a true feat.

Its unrivaled presentation in particular sets the bar even higher than the Uncharted trilogy already did, and its writing, voice acting and layered gameplay combine to create what is very easily the game to beat for Game of the Year 2013.

Most of these gave it a perfect score and the game has truly lived up to its hype. The game not only is violent in nature, but seems to be having one of the strongest decisions ever in a plot. It uses naughty dog's own engine and full open-gl based api's. It proves that direct x is nothing but Microsoft's monopoly as the only api choice. Its also a testament to the age old proverb, i had been hearing ever since i got my hands on the original PlayStation, which holds true even today:

"Never Underestimate The Power Of PlayStation"

All hail Naughty Dog :whistleblower:

Re: The Last Of Us (All Hail Naughty Dog)

Im buying this..

Re: The Last Of Us (All Hail Naughty Dog)

Wow! 10/10s across the board. Game holds 95 on Metacritic as of now. And I thought that Infinite would take this this years GOTY hands down.

Strangely, my favorite website has only given it 7.5/10. But that's to be expected, can't really please everyone.

And GTA V is yet to come....

Re: The Last Of Us (All Hail Naughty Dog)

Very impressive gameplay, wish i had a playstation 3.. :/

That thread was about the "ambush trailer". I think its great to start fresh for a title of this caliber.

Someone forgot to tell Sony the current gen is supposed to be over with

Sony is like getting praised big time for their first party development efforts. They are not only creating hype for their next gen console through amazing software line up, but also supporting current gen PS3 with gem of titles like "The Last Of Us" and "Gran Turismo 6". They kind of deserve all the praise.

It's times like these that I think it's worth owning a PS3. Yesterday, I almost bought it just for this and RDR (and GT5) but my other me told me that "you'd be paying like 24k for 2 games, lolumad?" and I came back empty-handed. And also there's PS4. Heard rumors that it's gonna get launched at 400$ or ~25k. So I thought patience would be great.

Why the f*** can't there be a game like this on PC?

Having said that, you will lose the games like UC, GOW series, HR, MGS 4 etc if you are not getting a ps3.

BTW, I bought my ps3 just a few weeks ago and i have completed both UC1 and 2. Playing UC3 now. Done with HR too. I must say it was worth the money. Im sure of getting GTA V also on PS3. so untill the PS3 game support continues, i will stick onto this console and then move onto PS4

^^ Yeah that's a good decision.

Btw there are other upcoming big titles too like "Beyond Two Souls", "Gran Turismo 6" and "The Last Guardian".

Talk about last guardian, if one has played titles like "ICO" and "Shadow Of The Colossus" , they can understand what Fumito Ueda titles bring into the picture.
Words cannot describe the masterpieces the guy creates. PS3 will undoubtedly cross the 100 million mark if titles like these keep coming.

@NVIDIAGeek

Buddy my advice for you is to get a used PS3 for 10k or thereabouts. You can also buy used PS3 games and also exchange titles between friends.
The huge roster of exclusives the PS3 has, simply has to be experienced by one. You can jump to a PS4 once its stable in the market with some good titles.

Which used model of ps3 should be bought for playing the exclusives?

The ps3 slim ( not the current one) will be the best. You can opt for any hard-drive config. The 320 gb should be the sweet spot or else, the 120gb will be just fine too.
Remember, you can always upgrade the hdd very easily. So just get the cheapest slim SKU.

Do you think the PS3 classics like RDR, UC 1, 2 and 3 and now Last of us will be playable on the PS4? or will there be remakes of these games for PS4?

Bhargav Simha said:

Well you can't play physical or digital media that needs to be directly processed. PS4 is X86 while PS3 is PowerPC based. They are completely different in terms of instruction set support and thus no backward compatibility. Same goes for XBOX one too.

However, Sony plans to stream PS3 titles sometime in near future on PS4 using its cloud services ( GAIKAI acquisition). They will be streamed from cloud server and playable on PS4.
But one needs a very high BW internet connection, which means it won't take off in india that well. So its better to get hands on with a PS3 in order to play its games and upgrade later.

P.S - There might be remakes though. Several classic PS2 titles were remastered in HD for PS3. Same can happen with PS4.

R

Adding to that, we can only expect these titles to be remade but cant really guarantee anything of that sort for 2 reasons -
1) Cloud services promised for backward compatibility by Sony (which also means remaking a game isnt worth for the developers)
2) The existence of PS3 itself for a such a long period that Sony has captured the console markets in time and they dont have to promote their product with games of the past anymore (like the way they had to during PS2 ->PS3 transition when Xbox was going great guns) and eventually capture the market with both the features and the games.

Well, buddy, if you don't mind whenever you get the chance, would you please post a link for the used PS3? I'll try my best to find one online but if you do please share it. And thanks for the advice. I never thought of it. :3

Major Nelson congratulates Naughty Dog for The Last of Us

Polygon is Silencing the PlayStation Community

This isn't the first time. They did the same with another ps3 jrpg exclusive Ni-No-Kuni. There's another rumor that microsoft paid them to write negative reviews about The last of us.

According to polygon, the last of us has too much violence and thus gave it a 7.5/10. They had been criticized massively for unfair comments and a broken review.
The guy who wrote it, also has a dismal track record and illogical points.

Stupid Sony fanboys :lol:

They want EVERY gaming site to give thier exclusive game a perfect 10?

CommanderShawnzer said:

Polygon is extremely biased against Ps3 exclusives, checked their previous reviews. And they got paid by Micrsoft, lol

My favourite game didn't receive the score I wanted. MUST BE A CONSPIRACY!!!!

Why is it sooo hard for people to believe that reviewers can have genuinely differing opinions about a game without being paid off? I know the the review isn't Polygon's finest work, but he does make some valid points, specifically regarding the AI. If you actually read the review, it sounds more like a 8-8.5/10 game, so yeah the scoring doesn't feel right.

Of course they will be criticised for not adhering to the norm; don't you remember how all hell broke loose when IGN gave Uncharted 2 9.5 instead of 10. Fanboys are fanboys irrespective of platform; if you don't give them what they want to hear, they will tear you apart. So yeah, maybe they should have picked a different reviewer, someone more comfortable with violence, but the review does give a few valid criticisms. Isn't that the point of reviews, to provide criticism?

And if you still think that Polygon are paid off by MS/ have a bias against PS3, maybe this will provide some perspective (via NeoGAF):

hey_it's_that_dog said:
Okay folks, because I hate myself I ran the numbers.

I looked through the reviews for all PS3 and 360 exclusives and compared the Metacritic to the Polygon reviews. I don't think I missed any but it's possible.

PS3:
Last of Us
Deadly Premonition DC
God of War Ascension
Sly Cooper Thieves in Time
LBP Karting
Ni No Kuni
Ratchet & Clank Full Frontal Assault
Starhawk
Guacamelee

Metacritic PS3 Average: 78.11
Polygon PS3 Average: 68.89
Difference: -9.22
Conclusion: Polygon rates PS3 exclusives lower than the average critic by 9.22 points on a 100 point scale.

360:
Gears of War Judgment
Halo 4
Witcher 2
Dance Central 3
Forza Horizon
Fable Journey
Steel Battalion
Kinect Star Wars

Metacritic 360 Average: 72.38
Polygon 360 Average: 61.88
Difference: -10.5
Conclusion: Polygon rates 360 games 10.5 points lower than the average critic on a 100 point scale.

Remove Kinect games from the equation and the Polygon 360 average is -8.5, which may indicate a slightly less negative bias toward 360 exclusives. However, this is based on only 4 scores, and that makes the estimated average a lot less precise. I would guess that a statistical test would reveal no significant difference between 8.5 and 9.2 based on this small number of observations.

Conclusion: Polygon scores both PS3 and 360 games lower than the Metacritic average. They score 360 games slightly lower, though probably not significantly so. In other words, NOT TEH BIAS.

Use this info however you see fit.

Well your points kind of don't count in this particular situation. Polygon is adhering to negative tactics and banning people in its forum for no reason.
Its kind of a big issue now and facing criticism not for their judgement but illogical comments.

The review kind of starts like this:

"The Last of Us made me feel sick to my stomach"....

If somebody wants to criticize, then some valid points has to be made. Not idiotic comments like the above. The reviewer must be smoking weed at the time of writing or must be in complete depression or something. The review honestly was hilarious and it made me laugh a number of times. It was extremely short too. The way he has depicted violence, seems to be written by a teenager hiding behind a bush to avoid bullies. lol

Check this out:

Polygon banning people after 7.5 score - The Last of Us Message Board for PlayStation 3 - GameFAQs

Jeff Rubenstein mad at Polygon: ''The Last Of Us Worst Reviewed Game Of Month thus far...Right'' | N4G

The Microsoft story is also in contention according to several writers:

Microsoft paid Polygon $750,000 to make their documentary

Microsoft is rumored to be funding that site. So you can't deny them plainly.

^ Did you even read my "points" before dismissing them as irrelevant? I said there was a fair amount of nitpicking, but there were some good, valid criticism regarding the AI. The game should have been 8-8.5 if you remove the nitpicking, 9/10 at the most. A few bad points does not mean the whole review is bad, or that the site is biased.

Who cares if M$ gave Polygon a certain amount of money. I have already given the average Metacritic scores for the exclusives which clearly proves that Polygon has no conceivable bias against PS3. You expect people to believe that a site is biased based on some "rumors", when statistical evidence clearly states otherwise?

And the forum moderators are volunteers, they are not paid by Polygon.

Actually i read his AI points as well. They were plainly absurd. I said your points don't count in this particular situation and not in a general perspective.
You should stop reading between lines mate.

That review was extremely short too. Did not cover each and every aspect. The only review which although not negative but has valid justifications is this:

The Last of Us Review - GameSpot.com

They gave it an 8 stating that supporting characters aren't sympathetic and more harsh. This kind of breaks the emotional flow at certain instances.
People will buy this and thus game spot did not receive any public criticism.They still termed the game as great.

But the polygon guy was a complete moron. Did the same thing with ni-no-kuni and was the same reviewer.

The statistics you provided doesn't throw much light either. The guy has taken games of ps3 which have a relative low metacritic score and compared its average with polygon.
Polygon hasn't reviewed games like gow 3 and uncharted series either. They are pretty new in the picture. People sometimes do things like this to get attention and nothing more.

I guess everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

I quit....

Hope someone ports this for the pc some day in the distant future

Get a Ps3 mate.

Find a used one at an attractive price and enjoy.

The fact that Polygon's review starts off with such idiotic line totally destroys their credibility. Ignore the morons.

EDIT - Just read first three paragraphs from that review, and damn, the writer is one sad mofo, god bless him. I guess he hates his life so much that he puking the frustration all over the review.

The fact that ps3 fanboys go berserk whenever their exclusive game does not get a 10(You should have seen the madness on IVG after the reviews for GoW:A came out :lol:

) makes me wonder whether Polygon is paid off by MS or is this the usual Fanboy Rage

Isn't this great? A guy who doesn't own a ps3 knows more about a ps3 than a ps3 owner

Happens all the time, one of the TDKR reviewers on RT got death threats for giving a bad review. But the funny thing is, majority of the reviews which get this fanboy bit-ching always sound so ignorant, they seem like the writer's frustrated of his/her own problems. When are these people gonna realize that not every game is for them, and they have to judge them by the game's own merit?

Nevertheless as you said, morons should be ignored. Who cares about that useless writer when people get to cherish such masterpieces. I wonder what is naughty dog's secret?

Creative* freedom that is. Admit it, Sony is possibly the only publisher/producer in the console business who doesn't pull down the developers to a disgusting level, like Microsoft did with Rare.

CommanderShawnzer said:

Freedom here depicts to give full support in form of sdk's and time to carefully study the architecture and get over the shortcomings.
Cyborg is right here. All sony exclusives has this shine and they might have had ample time to carefully study the cell and code on it.
Sony would have provided all necessary inputs on their part, in order to optimize for cell which other third party developers in the earlier cycle had failed.

Freedom does not mean going multiplatform. And the last thing sony will do is to support a Microsoft platform.

Oh NO NO NO!! Don't go that deep, please!. I just meant that Sony let ND do their $hit rather than forcing them to commercialize the game too much, otherwise, you can imagine what Last of Us would have looked and played like.

Let me try,
Post apocalyptic world, looks brownish/grey, ton of doom and gloom everywhere, skycrapers falling down, lot of explosions. Joel is a badass fast action super hero, weapon ammo is unlimited. Ellie is no more a teenager, but a grown lady with big boobs and a hot curvy body, and she can kick ass too. Some generic cool music, and ton of ads on MTV.
Any of this reminds you all of Fuse? the game EA just pissed on

Yeah, they didn't commercialize the game that much. All the time and hardwork the brilliant devs at naughty dog had put up, has finally paid off.
They should carry on such level of work onto the next-gen.

^Servers stacked up - which are computers, not PCs - like crazy is what Internet is, you can't use them like we do on PC. I also said, "PC sux", not "comp. sux". So yeah, your argument's invalid. (And we all [maybe not you] understood when I said "PC sux" that gaming on PC sucked.)

well dude if u wana say something here Is ur chance say before any one else says it before u .....

and these fruitful discussions are in which way related to The Last Of Us??

stay on topic please. dont want the mods to lock this thread..

Guys guys cut it out. Lets not spoil this thread.

Here when people said pc sux, they meant only the gaming aspect and by that, .......the windows directx platform.
Microsoft has completely monopolized this platform and due to its vast install base, has forced almost all developers to join the directx bandwagon.

Games like "The Last Of Us" prove that open-gl can achieve the same what directx does and even more, if its widely recognized as a gaming api.
The id tech engines, all harness open-gl api's and beats a lot of direct x titles. Doom 3 did that back in 2002.

Sony has embraced open-gl all the way from their existence in gaming industry and always stuck with it. Of couse they cannot use direct x derivatives as it comes from their competitor.

So this war is kind of between directx and open-gl and chants lie 'pc sux' implies 'DX sux'. Open-gl can deliver jaw dropping visuals too like seen here.

PC is not meant for only calling and working on graphics api's. Games themselves are coded on a pc only.
PC is not the competitor of any consoles. But platforms themselves are.

I do hope some solid alternative to windows arrive that can make open-gl more mainstream from a development perspective.

FIRST some facts about THE GAMING PC WHICH SUCKS!!!

there is no xbox 360 or ps3 out there which can beat the current market available gaming pc's in terms of processing power & graphics (dont giv me xbox 1 and ps4 crap as they are not in the market..........)

second experiencing practicality is the basis for all the fundamental laws using which we are able to create the device called computer............

and lol you said it there internet =servers (that means if we remove millions of pc's attached to those server it will still be internet ........... ofr ur info no of pc's >>> no. of servers in an internetworking....... so pc's play dominant role......)

also server also is managed by some personell only so we can also call it pc (although not by definition of pc )

and ya i don't get it what u said there are u calling member rakesh_ic noob??( plz do explain this as name calling is not allowed even if its indirect)

and for last thing i thnk i told him to say his views before some one with similar views posts it.......... and later dont say that he wanted to say same thing...............

the girl is really cute, I'll draw her

I was hoping to pre order but its no use.
all the DLC etc in pre order become available later on for free anyway
street value is a bit less and I can buy the game for a cheaper price. I might also find the elite version. If I do then I'll buy it.

Naughty Dog Comments On Polygon’s TLOU Review, PS4 And More

Finally Naughty Dog answers........

Holder: “I like what was said in the text. The reviewer seemed to be emotionally impacted by the experience of the game and the result was that it was not fun for them. By “not fun” I took that to mean it was difficult to experience some of the things in the game and it left a big impact on them emotionally and that wasn’t their cup of tea.”

“They maybe expected something more uplifting and the reality of our vision in this post pandemic world is just not so. Human nature is a scary thing. The reality of such a world would “not be fun”. A perfect score would have been lovely but everyone is entitled to their own opinion and that’s important to us.”

Shah: “Everyone is entitled to their view… even if it’s not what we want to hear/read.”

These guys are not only brilliant, but extremely humble as well. Sony is really lucky to have developers like naughty dog on their side.

Save up and get a PS4, as most new games are gonna come out on the PS4 as well. I've already put my PS3 in the closet

last night I had to play dirt3 on my PC
I have the original game.
to install, I had to first create a **** MS account- or I cant save the game progress.
then started a game update which took 4hours on 2mbps - without this download you cannot play the game- you can't pause it or resume the download either
after this the MS account had to be downloaded to the pc[profile]
after all the painful waiting the game actually started to run, on pathetic FPS so I had to go to the graphics settings and use the ultra low profile and then only I could play this at a decent speed.
Frankly speaking, this is not how you play the game.
I haven't even spoken about the loading times and the awful intro which make you bleed from your ears.

I bought the PC version for 699rs, could be way more cheaper on steam depending on when you buy it, and how much would I spend if I had to go for the console version? 2500rs?

Didn't have a single hiccup on the PC, performance or network stuff. Already had a Live account with GTA4, so logged in and started playing, and as bad as the reputation for GFWL is, I didn't have any problem finding games on the multiplayer either. The loading times were totally fine, just like they're in any other codemasters' game, though it could be worse on the consoles.

even I have the PC version here. but I'ms tarting to hate these install procedures.

SImilarly I have pc version of dead space2 and PS3 version of dead space3
I could not finish dead space2 on PC as there was no one online and I played DS3 online and finished the game along with a stranger online.
I had to regiser with EA before I could play ds2 on my PC. once done you don't even have to use the DISC which I liked a lot.
I had the ahem version of ds1 but I liked it so much that I bought the next two iterations. I will now buy the dead Space DLC on PSN, its just 600 bucks.

Everyone in that video seem to be favoring TLOU over Bio-Infinite to be the game of the year and some good points were made.
TLOU seems to be more immersive and a far more believable story.

Heard BioShock Infinite was a basic tunnel FPS with artsy graphics and also boring. They also say that BI's one of the overrated games alongside Tomb Raider this year. Most people preferred BioShock to Infinite.

The Last of Us is like BS1. Hope it gets released for PS4.

Well didn't play TLOU as I don't own a ps3 =_= But saw the entire walkthrough of the game. And possibly the best game I have ever seen/played. Its not the story itself,but the perfect mix of emotions,narration,tone and acting that makes it such an epic. Unbelievable experience. Now I have to buy a playstation just to play this game myself. No wonder it got such great reviews.

Wait for Emulators

I don't have high hopes from a simulator man :\ The PS2 emulator is stil glitchy. PS3 emulator doesn't even work so I don't have high hopes from it. Lets see. I hope it happens though

PS3 simulators on PC, impossibru!!!!

I'd love to have a ps3 emulator for PC, but its practically impossible, the architectures are extremely different aren't they? But a PS4 emulator is possible, don't you think?

CommanderShawnzer said:

People change, and most of the time, for good. Look how much pc fanboys started loving ps4 on its thread

You dont need to emulate the PS4. The code will run natively. Only a compatibility layer (on the lines of WINE) will be needed to adapt the PS4 openGL derivative to regular openGL.

I know it will run natively because it uses x86 on a regular PC processor (even if it is a beefed up next-gen APU). Arcade machines that are based on regular PCs can do the same (Taito Type X, and X2 were hacked a few years ago and they work beautifully- directx use being a plus), so it is also possible for the PS4 (as well as the X1 in case you were wondering).

If they can get around the security measures, the problem is solved

For the X1 they might not even have to make a compatibility layer for the graphics libraries (Direct3D).

Performance might be a problem for the PS4, unless devs are not taking advantage of the fact that GDDR5 RAM is much faster than DDR3 RAM.

Don't expect all features (such as video uploading, networked gameplay etc) to work because of driver issues and whatnot, but the Single Player experience will be just fine.

J

A PS4 emulator is much more possible than a PS3 one. Because of the similar underlying x86 architechture.

Would be epic if a PS4 emulator comes out.

this is the second time I reached this point in the game
first time I was hit by the bug and could not save the progress.
I've gone quite ahead now but don't wanna eat up the fun so soon.
So I have planned to play once every weekend.

you should have bought a low spec PC and used the rest of the money for a PS3
monitors these days come with a HDMI port so you can hook it up with the same.

The dark side is indeed attractive, but don't give in. I almost did. There's no STALKER on consoles.

HDMI passes sound directly to the TV/monitor. Most of even the cheap monitors with HDMI have a line out, to which you can connect headphones or speakers or even put it into you pc to further enhance the sound but it not really needed and will be an overkill. if your display is also used for PC then line out to PC can then transfer sound to you pc speakers directly and no need to an extra wire or connection.

yes. UC is Uncharted.
bro, you should have played that. its the Crowning Jewel of the PS3.

IMO

CommanderShawnzer said:

I'm actually gonna receive 2000bucks worth vouchers of croma from my office as a reward.
So I may actually buy new speakers for myself

or I might buy uncharted 2 and 3 from them, if the stores have them.

I finished uncharted1

the games are going nowhere and I have very less time to play.

I bought GOW3 and havent even played it for more than 1 hour, been almost a year
also got borderlands2 and I can't stand the game, it makes me sick. Might sell it on olx
ordered Heavenly Sword from the US and could not finish the game after reaching almost 3/4th of the game.

donate the games.

to me.

The Last Of Us Sells 1.3 Million In Its First Week

First week sales for the biggest title of 2013 to date, The Last of Us (PS3), are in. The game sold around 1.3 million units worldwide making it the biggest launch of 2013. This is nearly 200,000 units above BioShock Infinite which sold 1.16 million units in its opening week across the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.

It's nothing less than an astounding feat considering it beat a very popular and GOTY level multiplatform title. TLOU might be the most successful exclusive to come out of the stables for the PS3.

Now I assume this guy is a Microsoft shill/ doesn't know how to play such a game too?

He's pointing out that the game's AI isn't what Naughty Dog promised it would be.

anirbandd said:

I'm saying that Naughty Dog was bullshitting us at E3 and implying that most of the reviewers bought into the hype and also mocking the comments saying that Polygon don't know how to play the game/ are microsoft shills because they didn't say "OMG 10/10. BEST GAME EVAR".

WTH? The AI? They dumb? [I'm not being rude, but that's like ACM-AI-dumbness right there.]

Not dumb, dumbed down. They didn't do anything that Naughty Dog claimed they would.

The final game's AI is dumb, isn't it? That's what matters. IDK if it was dumbed down or anything, but the final product is ACM's level. That isn't 10/10 worthy, I guess the story overshadowed it.

Its fine alright, I've only been hearing good things about the AI. Sure it probably has glitches, and thanks to the internet things get overblown in a minute. No game is without glitches, and when you have a game as complicated as LoU, you'd obviously face those things.

Just like MoS, eh?

I'm fine with it. But obviously not 10/10.

I have no idea, didn't play the game. Although I've only been hearing good things about the game, not on the internet, but from the people I know.
And isn't it stupid, to think that a company will come out and say "Our AI is not revolutionary, it has glitches, just ignore them"? Its a commercial product, surely there are going to be some lies here and there in the marketing, duh!

tbh Naughty Dog's games are more about the story and cinematic experience rather than the game play.

Some people might not really like them.

Exactly. No major issues with AI here. People playing the game are the testament to the fact.
Did i mention sales??

Naughtydog has nailed it this time.

Literally teaching other devs a thing or two on how to revolutionize game development incorporating powerful story telling elements and strong interactive gameplay.

Except Hideo Kojima and fumito ueda, most jap devs have a lot to learn from these guys.

anyway, dead5 you have already told us you hate ND and its cinematic games. why bring up the topic again. and its not because i really love ND [i really love ND], but coz you are spoiling the fine thread. if you are irritated with the games dumb AI, you have the ND forums. go dig in there. ping the devs tell them how you and Polygon and that MS shill-whateva think the AI logic is ****. maybe you can even tell them how to do it properly.

you are not even posting you own thoughts. you are just posting what you found in the interwebs, coz this thing of dumbing the AI down sure aint posted by you.

wait, did you even play the game before posting the comments??

that goes out to Extreme Gamer too, for you are always defending dead5. justifying his comments. [offtopic] what are you guys, brothers??

cyborg47 said:
Cliffy B? Talented fellow, but way too arrogant and a douche.

Yeah, rightly said. He's wayyy too arrogant but quite talented. Gears would be a good example.
His ideas has been solid all along. ND are simply taking things to a different level.

Aren't working like 1980's and always looking ahead. They are not among the list of devs who like to be recognized for past laurels.
Shown great temperament in this regard.

anirbandd said:

You guessed that right!

I played this yesterday on my friend's PS3.. I gotta say ME GUSTA

vickybat said:

awwww!! that explains a lot!!

I got excited to play the game as soon as I heard the introduction and premise of the game. All I hear is praise, can't wait to play it

When in Rome,Do as the Romans do ;-)

NoasArcAngel said:
yes im rude to fanboys like you.. you dont say anything about me, you dont know me.

So you have no reason to be rude. I'm not a fanboy.

If I was a fanboy, where is my Wii U and where is my 3DS? I have comprehensively explained many times before how the Wii U at launch wasn't a console for me because it didn't have what I wanted. Now when Nintendo has announced some great games, and because of Sony's online policies (yes I don't want my credit card to be charged every month or every annum), all I stated was that I might pick up the Wii U because it seems to be the lesser of the three evils even with it's region locking after the games start coming out.

Ah crap..there you go, overly responsible mods

The thing that Dead5, Extreme Gamer, and reviewers from Polygon should know, not every game is for everyone. Reviews are opinion, but it doesn't mean you force them on your reviews, instead judge them by the game's own merit. Why bash the cinematics/story when its super clear that the game isn't for you.
My brother is an F1 fan, plays F1 games all the time, doesn't mean I go call the game boring, monotonous and complain that the game's handling is too sensitive and not catering my tastes right? that would be one stupid thing to do, which is exactly what Dead5 was saying. It's not criticism, its just your opinion, you don't like Cinematic gameplay then move on, why waste time with them? The best thing to do, is knock on your head, and tell yourself "Hey fcktard, the game isn't for you"

I'm no fan of uncharted, don't even want to play it, coz I don't find it interesting, as simple as that

Making up stuff for the second time, I never attacked you, just making a simple observation. When the game isn't for you, go play a game you like, as simple as that.
And don't even get me started on the so called criticism Dead5 was making..Little girl as side character, what in the god's world is wrong with that? Like I said, criticism is fine as long as you don't pull out your opinions out of your butt and call it 'criticism'

His criticism was fine. He wasnt attacking Naughty Dog or players who liked the game. He was attacking their product.

oh okay.

Why were my on topic posts saying that I didn't have much hope for The Last of Us because it relied on a cheap emotional hook and because I didn't trust the media because of BioShock Infinite, my post justifying the claims I made after they were questioned and my post questioning anirbandd's false accusation that I said that I hate Naughty Dog and cinematic games removed while the false accusation itself was not removed?

Why did you post them here in the first place if you didn't have much hope for LoU? You convinced yourself that it relies on cheap emotional hook, so why bother posting them here. So that someone will change your mind(doesn't look like its possible when you're so hellbent on hating it), or just calling out for arguments?

Honestly, tell me, where will the discussion really go after your hate posts? Except for Extreme, nobody shares your opinion, so what's the point?

There are a lot of fictional post apocalyptic stories(games, movies, books) based around children, and Ellie doesn't even die, its a very positive story. She carries the cure for the epidemic, and a group of science guys contracts Joel to escort Ellie(who will have to die in order to create a cure, by taking her brain out and reverse engineering it to be specific) in exchange of weapons, Joel agrees and escorts, but grows a fatherly relationship with her and...a twist in the end, a very positive one. Its a very human story, and I wonder why you have such a hatred for it.

I realize that this post is a bit meta and off topic, but I hope that it is on topic enough to not be removed.

What hate posts? People keep mentioning them but I don't seem to recall any one.

I always say that gameplay should be put before cinematics and no amount of cinematics and set pieces can make up for bad gameplay or poor level design, something I have criticized Uncharted for but I never said I hate cinematics. If I did my mouth(or in this case, my keyboard) wouldn't emit rainbows while discussing JRPGs. I feel cinematics should be an added bonus to the gameplay. You shouldn't have to go through mediocre/bad gameplay to get them. There is another more suitable medium for them, especially if the storytelling is not interactive and it doesn't have branching plot lines. So, Heavy Rain & Virtue's Last Reward get a pass(even though I don't consider a 12 hour long QTE fest a game

), Uncharted (and possibly The Last of Us) doesn't.

Since Naughty Dogs last three games were not named Jak and Daxter (or Crash Bandicoot) and the fact that the game was being marketed on its revolutionary hyper realistic AI (which, if Polygon's review, reddit posts & that video are any indication, was false marketing) & story I have no reason to believe that it would be any good (from my perspective). I simply pointed out that BioShock Infinite had caused me to lose any form of trust in gamers and gaming media. They acted like it was written by some videogame equivalent of Isaac Asimov, and playing it simply made it clear to me that the story and character development were arse, so I had no reason to trust them when it came to The Last of Us, especially considering how ridiculous the same were in Uncharted. I never said that I hated it, I just said that I had no faith in it to be good.

If I state my observation that it relies on a cheap emotional hook (still not as cheap as Call of Duty Dog

), It could lead to valid discussion about how, even though it does that, it builds a deep and compelling story/ has awesome gameplay and doesn't have clunky controls making the game worth playing, instead of claims that my claims caused me to lose all credibility or w/e.

Those specific posts of mine weren't off topic or against the rules in any form so there was no reason to remove them. The discussion that followed, especially the one centering around The Legend of Zelda, probably, yeah. They were off topic.

Note: The counter points in paragraph 5 are entirely made up. I will not comment on them unless I play it myself.

Edit: And I never criticized the game for having a little girl as I side character. I simply pointed out that the game was relying on a cheap emotional hook in the form of a little girl.

There you go, you're circling this $hit around again. I wrote one big as$ post for your 'gameplay first'(which is more of "I want every game to cater my tastes") philosophy, and I really can't type that $hit again just to hear the same argument aaaall over again for the third time, go on with your rant.

Some people won't learn, no matter how much you explain them. Its more like tried and tested long back. Its better to use the report button to help stop such posts.

The thing about most of the games is, the features are subjective. The clunky controls for someone might be an awesome control system for someone else, what's a cheap emotion hook for one might be a beautiful human story for another. Its meaningless to jump in and criticize a game for not satisfying ones tastes, when we have so many games to choose from. Don't like it? go play something else. I've tried to play Uncharted and Killzone, but I got so much used to the games on the PC, that the 30fps games were hell for me, they were so uncomfortable that I just couldn't get into them, but I can totally see why the console gamers love those games, so I'll go choose something that's more enjoyable for me. Its entertainment after all. Not every single game has to follow a set of rules, they have to break them, that's the point of any art form.

Didn't try multiplayer today. My ps3 is at 4.45 OFW, which seemd to have broken some PS3's
Currently I am downloading some stuff on my PC which is more important than the OFW4.46.
Without OFW4.46 I cannot go online on PSN. But I updated the game.

BTW, what is this "S** Phone Number Tweak"?

BTW how many of you guys have actually played the game? yet?

Gollum said:

Hah! that one cracked me up. Not sure about the clear details, but apparently ND added some sex phone numbers somewhere in the city, realism purposes I guess, and some people were offended by it, so ND is removing them from the game.

I want to, badly, as soon as one of my friends narrated the game for me. I plan to borrow a friend's PS3, but he hasn't got the game yet, so I'll have to wait till he gets it, and finishes the game

you're right the game is more like a movie, with quite a few cut scenes, however, the gameplay itself lasts for 7-8hrs... thats not bad, is it??

Its good and best part is that the cut scenes are not movies but actually h/w rendered image. which makes it more realistic as you don't see any change from cut scene to movie

yeah i get tempted whenever i look at this thread. There is no point wasting money instead i can trade with my frnd. He needs UC3 (I got it) and I get LOU

BTW Trentton told me to trade freely

Ok so since i don't own a PS3 and was dying to play this game and seeing how there are barely any PS3 booths in Mumbai (or are there ?) i decided to watch Lets Play of this game and wow this game has been amazing so far. GOTY material guys.The graphics are so superb and the story is damn good and the gameplay is also really good with a healthy mixture of combat and stealth.

1.06 should fix it. try to see if you can disable internet so that you can save easily.

is this game really worth it??? thinking of buying it??

Well, If you like post apocalyptic scenario like "I am legend"
great story line and voice acting
great gameplay and physics
awesome visuals, then yes go get it.

This game is bloody amazing and really scary at places,
The chapter where you gotta restart a generator to get to a floor is the best so far,
So many bloody zombies at once, I hate them bloaters

Oh come on man, its been a year since the game released, besides this doesn't give away the ending does it?
I bet any survival/horror genre game would have such a level.

Anyways I just finished my 6 hour session and completed the game. Yay.
I think the story is about 10 hours? I took way more than that .
But hands down best game I've played.
Awaiting the sequel...
