@goodgamesguy: "In 2012, Naughty Dog revealed that it was asked to put one of The Last of Us' main characters, the young woman Ellie, on the back of the box."

whoa

@rayo_theking: Cool, thanks. If the combat is fun I should probably do myself a favor and pick this up at some point

Do people need to know the story of the first two games to enjoy this one?

I'm hungover and watching this made my headache worse. Game looks good though

@hollywood1: I believe it's Rockstar's decision if they want to make it available via backwards compatibility. But you're right, they are looking to re-release the game like you said to make some cash

Looks nice!

@davillain-: A next gen Metroid and F-Xero would be cool. Maybe even a new Donkey/Diddy Kong. Obviously Zelda will be great but will most likely be constrained due to being developed for Wii U.

That's a good score (!). Congrats to PS4 owners, you (naughty) dogs, you.

What would be an Xbox equivalent to this, Tomb Raider? I rarely play action/adventure games, maybe I should look into them.

@Ezioprez9709: This game to me is a puzzle/platformer, and I wouldn't compare it the likes of a AAA action game like those you mention above. Obviously, an "arcade" title shouldn't be compared to Zelda, Halo, etc., especially when they come at a fraction of the price. I downloaded the game for free and have gotten through about 75% of it; it's a welcome break from shooters.

It seems you are referencing the traps in the earlier stages of the games, which I quickly learned to avoid. The traps are later placed in levels as a means to dispatch enemies, which plays to the puzzle nature of the game IMO. Later on in the game the areas/puzzles get more detailed and don't rely on simple "don't step here" gimmicks. While some might see games like this as "torture", some (like me) can find satisfaction in overcoming each new obstacle. This game reminds me of Braid, just with less story.
