Apparently they were shown the same E3 demo but with stealth!

The crafting system is a layer to this that I didn't expect. Nice to have that extra wrinkle in there. Brad made a good point in one of the wrapup videos that this is like a better thought-out take on I Am Alive.

Yeah the Demo at E3 didn't do the game justice for me, it made it look like a gritty Uncharted with a few new features.

But all these details about choices of skipping fights, the girl helping out depending on what the situation is (and not just scripted to happen the same way every time), and the crafting (completely missed that when I first watched the Demo) truly make this game sound awesome! Really looking forward to it now!

People can say what they want but this game is going to do really well and be incredibly well received.

Yeah, if it gets a 9, 9.5, or (god forbid for SW), 10, Cows will NEVER SHUT UP.

If it gets an 8.5 or less, lems will NEVER SHUT UP.

I honestly hope the first one happens since it would mean the game is amazing and worth buying, and I can just ignore SW while I enjoy this fantastic game.

I think I'm most interested in seeing more of ellie. She doesn't seem so forced like most ai teammates, and how she can go into a fight with you and actually be of use is great. Glad to here more about how stealth plays out, and that it'll be a risk/reward type situation as well.

people go here all the info you need to know anout this game http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=477541 even the GAF mods saw the behind doors demo and they also confirm that what we saw is not scripted (along with pretty much every site including Gamespot) this is from Gamespot : "the AI in The Last of Us is so good that--until you see the same demo played through a second time and realize that characters' actions aren't scripted--it's hard to believe that it's AI at all. Joel and Ellie reference their surroundings as they converse believably, enemies behave differently depending on the weapon you're carrying and whether or not they outnumber you, and Ellie is quick to assist you in the event that you run out of ammo and subsequently find yourself on the receiving end of a beating. We've yet to step into Joel's boots ourselves, but we can't wait to try them on for size when The Last of Us is released sometime next year." http://www.gamespot.com/special-feature/best-of-e3-2012-edit/image-gallery/index.html every one here who still say it's scripted .. should just stop this is the only site that still have people who still say that BTW the game so far have won 4 Game of the show awards

Personally, I don't care about the machinations of SW and its fanboys.

I want it to be a 10, because I want it to be an amazing game. I want Halo 4 to be a 10, as well as Gears of War judgement. Honestly, I don't care about SW or how people act here, I simply want the best for the games I play and the gaming industry in general, and its not like the lems should care.

Am I the only one who finds it odd that suddenly the level itself is different between the two demos?

In the IGN writeup about the private demo they mention that the ladder used to crawl up the hotel in the E3 demo suddenly wasn't there in the private demo.

That either means one of two things:

A) Levels are also being somewhat randomly generated or

B) This whole thing about it being the same demo is just BS.

They have yet to say anything about dynamic levels so I am quite confused by this.....

Sounds to me like the live demo was an earlier build that they had been polishing up to show at Sony, while the other demo was a later build in which they had removed the ladder.

No, it means this... They took out a puzzle you needed to do to get the ladder in the Press Conference Demo Because of Time Restraints.

That was very informative and only makes it harder to wait for the title. Also I completely forgot the source but I heard that medi-kits don't work straight away, so when you are in the middle of a shoot out or fight you have to be on your toes as you wont be able to abuse the health system.

oh you yes you are the only one because any one with half a brain already knew that the ladder is a puzzle you need to do first if they have done this in the E3 demo it would will take more time OK?!

Simply the fact that its made by ND turns it into Uncharted for someone who just has nothing better to do then hate on a great game, by saying its like another great game.

Its just so lazy.

This game will either get a 8.5 or 9.0 or 10.TheGuardian03

or 7.5 and below. This game is just getting overhyped.

I'd say at least a 9.0, ND's cred alone would get them at least an 8.5, but this looks like a breath of fresh air in the current gaming environment. A game about true survival, with deadly but humanized AI enemies, and a somewhat Deus Ex way of open combat options and levels.

Its easily one of my top 5 most anticipated games right now, along with GTA V, Far Cry 3, Gears of War: Judgement and Bioshock Infinite (not in the order necessarily).

I don't know but my sig thinks 8.5

I'm predicting, 9.0.

I'd say 9.5, but for safety's sake I always go .5 lower on GS.

This is the first game in years to have actually grabbed my attention, so there's something (Not that I'm saying i'm special or anything - I'm not - but it definitely stands out amongst all the Call of dutys...).

I hope the release date stays open, and remains flexible, so that Naughty Dog can have the time they need to make the Last of Us as awesome as humanly possible .

Its kind of hard to explain lol but I just don't like it when a firm release date is set so early.

I feel like, let the especially UBER TALENTED and industry best Naughty Dog, do their THANG, and do what they do best, AND THEN set the release date in accordance to what they are doing, and accomplishing IMO ect

And if they need more time, then delay the game, and make it as awesome as possible. You get me?

Sony is the best with supporting their stable of great developers to the fullest, so I'm sure they'll give Last of Us the time it needs to be made as awesome as possible, and the same goes for the great looking GOW: Ascension.

this is a great reason why you should never sell the hardware.

I barely play my Wii and even less so my 360. but because of Last Story/XenoBlade, and Gears of War Judgment and Halo 4. I can still play those when they eventually show up.

I've read so much so far on this Game that i'm already to go on blackout.
