The Last of Us - E3 Extended Demo (15 min) all new footage

the silence and suspense is soooo good. Game is going to be amazing.campzor

Agreed it's a nice design choice. Instead of over the top music, the game creates tension with just raw sound and silene. I was on the edge of my seat the entire time he was going from room to room and hiding from those guys. I am not sure what they are exactly, must be savage survivors who kill people or maybe cannibals or something.

The AI seems so real, when they run you hear "how many of them are there?" and the other guy yells "I don't know I think I only saw one". And when he has the guy and puts the gun to his head, the dialog was so real between them and the emotions on their faces were so errily human.

This game....wow....it's gonna be something different, something special. I have never seen another game like it before. It's genre defining.

Totally different from the first E3 demo, they said this game is not scripted with many different scenarios that can occur.

This is going to be GOTY of 2013 and graphics king of 2013. Butthurt 360 owners and Hermits will hate on it, but if a game get's hate you know it's gonna rock.

This game brings out the jealousy in non PS3 owners. And it should. Just buy a PS3 guys and get over it.

I wouldn't say Hermits will be butthurt since PC games looks better and they have a vast amount of games.

Lems are the ones who will cry.

You are in this thread, about a game you apparently "don't care about", just to downplay it and say your PC is so much better, something no one here cares about but you.

You are sore about this game and trying to damage control it. Just buy a PS3 and get over it.

Those graphics... dayum. :shock:

shadiezz2012

but what i like the most

the acting

the animation

the dynamic ai

and the amazing gameplay

the craft menu

this game just scream "GOTY"

The AI and animations are definitely it's strongest point, and the lighting. The textures are pretty damn amazing aswell (in their design, not resolution). The only thing it seems to be lacking is AA. The game has some of the worst jaggies I've ever seen, but that might be due to an early build and they're still implementing it.

Looks nice, this would play well on WiiU :)

So much so that when the camera is moving your eyes are immediately drawn to them. It must be awful first hand then if they show so well on a compressed youtube video :?

Also why do all these threads have to have endless posts with the word "Jelly" in them? the game looks fantastic and will do really well, and I can't even play it. But I am not jealous I am envious

[QUOTE="campzor"][QUOTE="SNIPER4321"]looks very bland, dull and uninspired...SNIPER4321

Also it's about damn time ND showed a game with the proper reaction to violence. Not snapping necks like twigs or gunning down hundreds of dudes easily. This is the real deal. Hits with pipes hurt and disfigure, getting shot sacres everyone and sends bits of blood all over the place taking a chunk out of a guys skull. It's not glorifying the violence or saturating you with it. Even the little girl reacts badly to the dude dead on the ground. Seems to be a very well thought out game

But I was annoyed when the elevator fell, too much like Uncharted at that point when it was doing so well up until then

Man I just love that little girl Elle. The game makes you want to protect her. Naughty Dog continues to step their game up with new amazing looking IPs this gen. Give them props.

Looks awesome! The animations are particulary impressive, assuming thats not all scripted. Im sure it will be an amazing ride, anyway.

I love the atmosphere and the dynamic gameplay, however the graphics looks below average.

Oh yeah just forget the showering of praise I just gave it everyone and look straight at the fault I spoke of. This is the problem here, people see something and constantly just praise merits all the time and can't think objectively anymore. The game looks fantastic and wills core incredibly well, BUT it's not going to be perfect. Surely you can see some faults in it too that you didn't like, doesn't suddenly make it a horrible game

The reason it annoyed me was the game is trying very very hard to simulate a real world scenario in all accounts for what is happening. Gunfights are scary as fvck and killing someone is not easy, they scavenge for anything they can use and everything is evry tough just like if it were real life. Then the elevator suddenly drops, magically. If elevators suddenly dropped like that in real life they wouldn't be very safe now would they? That and he fell a good 30 feet very hard and fast and looked to be in pain when he landed, just to get up and say "I'm fine" and on again.

It breaks the tension and the whole vulnerability of the characters if they can plunge so far with no downside

No they ascend and descend. They don't plunge if someone steps on them or in them. If an elevator could fall like that in real life how would anyone get up on top of them for repairs? Sure I am being nitpicly and seeing too much realism in things but this game is striving for realism and a connection with the characters.

Main reason I can't connect and hate Hate drake is the fact that he can do anything easily and come out fine. Kill a hundred dues, get shot, fall off a building or crash into something and he gets up and whimsically says "crap". I can't connect with someone like that because it's so out of the realm of realism. But that's fine the game doesn't strive for it.

TLOU however is known to try be more realistic and even ND said so themselves, they want you to feel what the characters feel and really bond with them, but how can I relate to a dude who falls down and elevator shaft about 30 feet and get up and be fine and just shrug it off.

The rest of the demo was stunning and really wowed me, that moment stuck out as over the top or unnecessary

Not sure about the scripted part... The player knew like 80 % of the time how they would react.

But will be buying it anyway.

This and PS All Stars will likely be the last games I buy for PS3

[QUOTE="nervmeister"][QUOTE="TheGuardian03"]This is what i was waiting for, this is going to be my GOTY for 2013.TheGuardian03

Looks good and seems that it's a true survival game with limited resources (a huge plus for me).

guys did you notice when he shoot the last thug the fire cought his legs just wow the love the put in the details is just amazing shadiezz2012

But I was annoyed when the elevator fellseanmcloughlin

Looks amazing, it's my most anticipated game of next year.

some of you people in here are downright pathetic. So a game needs to be open world ala Skyrim to be considered "good" now this days? pfft, please...

Now, regarding the video... IT LOOKS SOOOOO GOOOOD:D

looks like another fine "cinematic experience" from ND. can't wait to watch this on YouTube.

I actually didn't find it all that impressive. Too much of the demo was panning the camera over an enviroment that didn't look all that good. And man....the elevater section, who honestly didn't see that coming?

The game looks amazing. When did scripted events become evil in videogames? If that is what Naughty Dog is going for and they pull it off (which it looks like they have) then that just means another awesome game for PS3 owners to enjoy.

This game has moved from, I'll wait a while to pick it up, to one of my top 10 most anticipated games.

I've always been a fan of Naughty Dog and I'm happy to see them starting another IP.

The hell are you on about?

2 people jumped on an old and what I can assume is a rusted elevator that has been in di-use due to the whole viru-Apocalypse thing. Its not a stretch to see why it would plunged from the weight of 2 people jumpin on it.

The man landed in water, and slowly swam away. But if youre going to hold video games to the standards of real life, then youre in the wrong pass time.

Street cleaning simulator Game of the Year edition might up your alley though.

Anytime you people see an adverse effect on an environment in a game you knee-jerk into your Uncharted vitriol, as ironic as it sounds, its getting really tired.

Every time a camera backs up on a character people scream UNCHARTED/ MOVIE/ QTE and start running around with their hair on fire.

Jesus fvck. Give sean some space. He says 1 thing and everyone jumps on him.freedomfreak

THANK YOU !!

people round here are so touchy and afraid of criticism these days. Even when I said the game looked good and would be well received :roll:

They are going for realism. Do we know how long after the 'event' things are taking place? Years, I'm assuming. In that time, do you not think that everything would degrade and waste away? From the level of growth through the city, we can tell that it's been a while. Joel looked like he injured himself when he hit the water. You also have to think, you may not even come across that scenario when you play. Who's to say where I choose to go. If it's really not scripted, then I would avoid anywhere that might make things worse.

Please, im not gonna be the only one to think it. And as soon as he got on the elevator how many of you thought "This is gonna fall"? not only that but it falls AFTER the girl gets off? that's just as cliche as it gets. And busts your arguement of two people on it. If it was gonna give way it would have done it as soon as the girl landed on it, not the second she got off.

Like I said in Uncharted it's fine because it's all over the top action anyway. But when ND says they want to make a more realistic game and when you can see evidences of it everywhere in the game already, something like a 30 foot plunge from a crashing elevator sort of jarred the experience and went a bit overboard. The whole thing was highly highly immersive until that happened.

And like it or not but it did seem unchartedish and a lot of people will draw the same comparison

[QUOTE="clone01"][QUOTE="Zaibach"]The man landed in water, and slowly swam away. Chutebox

Cool. I like the intense, non-scripted gameplay of this game. I was somewhat skeptical of this game before as I thought it' just another scripted game like UC

AF is still poor but otherwise game looks great.

Honestly I would have been a lot happier if it wasn't because as soon as I saw the elevators I was thinking "please God don't fall" because of how terribly overdone that scenario is.

And since when is everyone an expert on the degredation rate of steel cables? Again im not saying the whole game is gonna be bad and I want it to fail or any of that usual SW garbage. I stated my opinion on an aspect that seemed out of place in an otherwise highly atmospheric set of sequences. It felt like it was just in there for the sake of cheap thrills and not the deep experience they're trying to portray
