TLOU is first 2013 title to hold top spot for four consecutive weeks (UK)

The Last of Us has done what BioShock Infinite and Tomb Raider couldn't: Naughty Dog's exceptional adventure has scored four weeks atop the UK all-format games chart. Dead Island: Riptide and BioShock Infinite each won three weeks in pole position earlier this year, while Tomb Raider managed two. And, crucially, The Last of Us is a platform exclusive. Congratulations all round.

bu...bu...no1 buys ps3 exclusives.

Well deserved.

Hell, even the multi is fun.

A big part of that is due to ripping off Ellen Page for  brand reconignition. Being the hacks they are, they gave no credit, no royalties and didn't get permission in the first place.

I guess when your game is only an 8.0 level quility you must be forced to reach a new low in order to make coin.

they can hold onto top spot for another few weeks.

Just bring it GTA

As is Titanfall holding the spot for the ugliest game of E3 for 4 consecutive weeks.silversix_

woo party!!

:P

How many copies has the game sold so far?

I'd like to know that as well... these are slow months for major releases, it's not like TLoU has any stiff competition...

I wish more developers had the freedom that Naughty Dog has. They are capable of creating new IPs and they sell well every time... Why does it always work out for them?

Gears is quite a huge franchise though, so it's pretty amazing to see a new ip do this well

The last of us also outsold every multiplat combined in the same period, "haven't played it yet, just good to see a new ip doing so well"

Deserved TBH

True, Xbox 360 can't provide competition, because it's dead

Boom.

LOL - clearly not dead - even without exclusives

Thats nice. It still wasn't enough to keep 360 from finishing dead last and won't save Xbone 180 from being a disaster.

But my MMO's would probably outsell this in 5 minutes.

Are you seriously attempting to argue they didn't rip her off?

Well there had been trailers online, promo pictures, concept art, in store posters at retail stores and such since 2012 and no one said anything about the girl looking like ellen page. It wasnt until after the game came out and became such a huge success that suddenly she says "Hey thats me".

Hell here is a list of 15 people that look a lot like video game characters http://venturebeat.com/2012/07/28/15-casting-suggestions-for-video-game-movie-adaptations/#vb-gallery:1:496941 how come none of them are saying they had their likeness ripped off?

Ive noticed all the people who say "Yeah she got ripped off. Naughty dog are thieves!" are the ones who dislike the game without having actually played it because they dont like sony and look for any chance they can to dig on anything sony, or they are people who hate TLOU simply because they are contrarians and automatically dislike anything that is popular. No one else shares that opinion, even non gamers dont think so.

If you strip away hairstyles, clothes, accessories all people of a certain skin color and ethnic background pretty much look the same. You can only vary things so much when youre going for a realistic style before you start to make your characters look like real people.

They made money from Ellen Page like a human traffiker making money from unsuspecting and unwilling women. 

The also screw over old ladys close to death.

Dat domination.

top spot for four weeks, sold 1 million copies in its first week. bu but 8.0

Actually katherine from uncharted 3 looks like the actress who did her voice since they modelered katherine after her. Usually thats what a lot of game studios do. Well aside from a few tiny cosmetic changes like narrowing the eyes a little to give her a more sinister look and such it is basically the same woman.

Just like they modeled the girl from last of us after her voice actor. Both young, both cute, both have basic facial structure, both had dark hair and so on. Just like nathan drake is modeled after his voice actor, woman who does helenas voice looks like helena, guy who does victor sullivans voice looks like him and so on.

Considering you responded in less than a minute you obviously didnt even bother to read what I had to say. Nor have you bothered to address any of my counter points to your arguments such as how almost all of uncharteds characters look like their voice actors so Ill consider this an end to our discussion. You obviously refuse to ever consider anything beyond your narrow scope and need to be a contrarian. It is like trying to have a conversation with a child while they throw a tantrum. So, good day.
