It will be forgotten about the second The Last of the Last of Us is announced. Yeah it may win Game of the year and in many ways it deserves it especially if you judge it on a purely technical level but it will be long forgotten when the inevitable sequel comes along. Games that are truly innovative and spark the imagination such as Shadow of the Colossus, Half Life 2 and Beyond Good and Evil are games that are talked about about and revered and played for years and decades after their rele...
Oh and as a retort to everyone that will use the high review scores to validate the argument that its the best game this generation. It should be noted that Mario Galaxy, Mario Galaxy 2, Mass Effect 2 and Naughty Dogs own Uncharted 2 have a higher aggregated scores.
It's only the best game this generation if you have a very short memory. I did in fact play the game from beginning to end and thought the gamplay was tired and common and the story to be immensely cliche. Not the mention the travesty of closure and character arcs Naughty Dog called an ending. It was a betrayal of Ellie's character in ways that are almost shameful. If she is content with being a mindless lemming to a murderous psychopath then so be it but don't try to sell me o...
Oh for a second there I though you were talking about Gran Turismo. LOL
Cocaine is a hell of a drug.
Every time I read a fanboy jerkfest article like this I lose more and more faint in gaming journalism. Such a wast of time and effort. Oh and to be clear the answer to this question is the mouse and keyboard.
Straight from Wikipedia
Shuhei Yoshida of Sony Worldwide Studios commented on future DLC Releases, commenting the game's sale of 1 million units but claiming "it was not enough to have the momentum in terms of a business standpoint to continue to add characters or do a sequel", confirming no more DLC is likely to be released
That's a well constructed argument bro.
Bioshock and Bioshock Infinite are prime examples of tying game story lines and gameplay themes together. They took everything about Bioshock and threw it out and only kept the core concept for the sequel as well as as adding an completely new game play mechanic (skyline system). It evolved the premise and changed things the way they needed to change. This is a great example actually. Look at the difference between Bioshok and Bioshock Infinite and the difference between Uncharted 2 and 3...
Metal Gear Solid, Half Life, Bioshock and Bioshock Infinate, Zelda Ocarina of Time, to name a few are better. The problem with Last of Us is that instead of carving a path of it's own it treads familiar water at every turn. Like almost all of Naughty Dogs games it is fun to play and looks incredible, they hit every stride they have to but ultimately are completely unoriginal. The Last of Us is an amazing game but lacks the originality and uniqueness to truly stand above the rest. In t...
Apparently a Naughty Dog artist got lazy and goggled "subway map" then grabbed the first pic that looked good. They didn't let the original maker of the map know and didn't ask permission. For those who are ignorant of copyright law that is illegal. It is the illegal use of of a persons intellectual property and the creator of that map if fully within his right to sue the shit out of Naughty Dog and he would win if he did. Most likely this will be resolved out of court a...
Said the NOT artist.

Yeah you're prolly right.
If everyone keeps jerking this game off its gonna start to get tender. Seriously. Any number of games can make the claim of being bigger than a feature films release. Any of the last 5 Call of Duty games, Mario Kart Wii, hell even Wii Fit can say they had a bigger debut than Man of Steel. The Last of Us (a great game) will never match the profits generated by the Man of Steel. Not in terms of profit or cultural impact. In time perhaps it will but everyone needs to stop before the over h...
If that doesn't show you the subjective nature of polls then nothing will.
Although I believe that Sony clearly has the superior console one should never underestimate the power of the Microsoft marketing machine. Sony has been on financial thin ice for a few years now and Microsoft has plenty of cash to burn to ensure a win. This is gonna he really interesting.
Also percentages don't mean much in grand scheme.
90% of the country wanted gun control... But it still lost.
Perhaps because it's 3 years away at least.
Don't hold your breath Santa Monica Studios just laid a bunch of people off.
You do know that the 3DS is currently the biggest selling gaming console on the market right now don't you? Nintendo will be around for years to come based on the sales of that alone.
