The Last of Us

Season Pass ($19.99)

Hmmm 17 day's early kinda weird usually you see this on launch day.

porkChop4789d ago

The game is a Day 1 Digital, so they let you preorder the Season Pass along with the game.

Haywood5654789d ago

$20 to get what should have come with my $60 game? Here we go again.

Tetsujin4789d ago

I'm hoping it's one of those they didn't cut from final product before release, that would piss me off. However if it's "legit" extra or side quests then I'm not as upset; either way I'm still with you though.

BISHOP-BRASIL4788d ago

I was concerned too, but read it again... It's not day one DLC at all. This is a Season Pass, which means you'll have access to the DLC "when" it comes out. Looks like the DLC will not be finished that soon, just that they are already working on it after the game has gone gold.

I'm still not so ok with that, I don't like DLC in general... I miss full expansion packs that were game changing and came a year or so after. Most modern DLC (and I don't say that particularly from ND) are boderline microtransactions, stuff as stupid as ONE map, ONE weapon, ONE character, while most modern sequels feels more like expansion pack at full price.

And this season passes (now I'm talking more aimed at ND) don't inspire me confidence... I mean, pay 60 bucks for a game, more 20 bucks for content you'll not receive 'till they say so... Not that I don't think they'll deliver, I'm sure they will, but still paying 80 bucks up front for 60 bucks worth of content... I don't know... But hey, I only bought premium for BF3 after the third DLC was out, so I may be a little methodical/paranoic.

But anyway, it's not like I'm forced to buy neither are they cutting content off for DLC as far as I can see, so I'll just buy the game and be done with it, no DLC for me for now, no big deal.

SanMarco4789d ago

Yet we buy it anyway. Argh!!!

porkChop4789d ago

The content isn't finished yet and wasn't taken out of the game. It's 2 multiplayer expansions, and a story expansion.

ziggurcat4789d ago

to my knowledge, naughty dog have never sold content that was included on the disc as DLC - mostly because it's all been multiplayer-related.

i doubt very much that the SP content was cut from the core content of the game. this isn't capcom we're talking about here...

MEGANE4789d ago

I dont care what it is!. u right! its kind of early for DLC and ADD on's. Most studios are going crazy trying to get theire $80 per game. Except for activision and COD where they want $100 plus. Bullshit

plaZeHD4788d ago

That's not entirely true. The behind the scenes videos couldn't be included in the game. Here is what one of Naughty Dog's developer had to say about it "BTS isn’t a movie. It’s very different than what you’ve seen before. It’s also BONUS content.
This isn’t stuff from actual disc or that could be on the actual disc. It’s fresh DLC." But they give this kind of BS all the time.
And we don't exactly know if the DLCs will be Day 1. Take Bioshock: Infinite for example. The season pass is available now, but the DLCs doesn't come right away, but later on.

MoveTheGlow4788d ago

Right. It's a DLC plan, not on-disc or day-one, with an option to buy into the hype quite early. Hopefully, the preorders keep ND a little more invested in the creation of that DLC post-release.

Utalkin2me4788d ago

It's planned content, not something that was cut. You don't have to purchase it.

If they did cut stuff out of the sp ill be pissed. But since ND has never screwed there costomers with sp dlc before let's cut them some slack. They could be stand alone story missions. Think minervas den from bioshock, stand alone stuff like that would actually be awesome.

elhebbo164789d ago

they did screwed up Uncharted's multiplayer with 3...

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle70d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Relientk7770d ago

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

DarXyde77d ago

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

Soy78d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

DivineHand12577d ago (Edited 77d ago )

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.
