The Last of Us Early Access Demo is Almost Here

GOS: "Sony promised back in January that buying God of War: Ascension would grant you early access to Naughty Dog’s survival horror adventure, but when Ascension launched in March gamers were greeted to a page with a countdown clock. If you are patiently waiting for your chance to play the demo it will be available on May 31st, which is over a week from now and two weeks before the June 14th launch date."

I really wanna go hands on with this game. Its looks interesting but i do wanna test it before i buy it. It looks awesome from what ive seen

abzdine3994d ago

thanks for the reminder :)

Spinal3994d ago

You know I really don't know whether I should play the demo or not cause I'm so buying this game day one.

Man I hate when they do this to me so tempting!! And I got the access with my god of war ascension.

ZodTheRipper3994d ago

^same here, already preordered and paid for it ...but I guess I won't be able to resist once the demo is out.

nix3994d ago

damn... got the GOW: Ascension. thought i was gonna get the demo for TLOF.. then they postponed it. now they're saying it's almost here.

sadly my PS3 conked off! damn! like damn!

CaptainSheep3994d ago

I wonder if PS+ members will get some kind of early demo as well.

Fil1013994d ago

I was wondering the exact same thing.

ScepticTankAvenger3994d ago

Man I hope so. I was definitely not going to pay $60 for God of War just for the demo.

Utalkin2me3994d ago

You know that "God Of War" game is pretty good.

ScepticTankAvenger3994d ago

I didn't say it like that. I played the game, I just didn't buy it. I don't buy short single player games with no story dlc anymore. I learnt my lesson from Tomb Raider...

Sniperwithacause3994d ago (Edited 3994d ago )

So you only learned your lesson a few months ago? I haven't finished gow yet, but I have tomb raider. It kept my attention longer then gow has.

ScepticTankAvenger3994d ago

@Sniperwithacause Everything changes once you start having less money for games. Before, I could buy games all the time, but the well has run dry.

elhebbo163994d ago

@Utalkin2me hey not everyone has the same taste in games, im pretty sure GoW:A is an amazing game but im not gonna pay for something that I dont want to get a demo that I want... if you catch my drift.

matrixman923994d ago

yeah i didnt want to buy it either...the good news is that Red Box does have god of war. if you want to pay 2 dollars for the demo lol

Now this is the only time I was a little upset with Sony and ND, why say that you will get the demo early when you buy "GOW A" and then throw a countdown up on the disc? Did Sony not think most ppl wouldn't support "GOW" on it's own? A lil miss leading if you ask me but "TLoU" is upon us all and i'm excited. PSN: cedaridge

ZodTheRipper3994d ago

It was planned for an earlier date (sometime in May) but had to be delayed when the full game got delayed.

cedaridge3994d ago

Thanxs bro! I wasn't aware of the delayed. lol

ZodTheRipper3994d ago (Edited 3994d ago )

No prob, one of the reasons I bought GoW:A was because of the demo and now I'm not even keen on playing it anymore because I'm trying to get into this special game as fresh and unknowing as possible :)
But it will be very hard to resist once the demo is available ...

Rhythmattic3994d ago

This is the first game I have ever pre-ordered..

As a Gaming veteran (as I'm sure many of you are or will be) I have absolute faith in this new IP from ND.

Even if its bad for a ND game, it'll be better than many other gaming experiences out there...

The Last Of Us Series Has Remarkable Potential For Spin-Offs

Najam from eXputer writes "It's time fore a new installment in the series, not another pointless remaster."

anast84d ago

They are working on something new. Not to be rude but it is impossibility stupid to think ND next major announcement is going to be a remaster or their next Last of Us entry is going to be another remaster.

AlterRecs81d ago

I think this is in response to them releasing a remaster for the sequel, a game that didn't need a remaster.

Basically a "why did you put out a remaster no one asked for when you have all there options available"

anast81d ago

They remaster is to put out something quick while they are deving new stuff. I don't get how people can be so static.

AlterRecs80d ago

There's no news about a third game being in production, you're just assuming that they're working on something that they aren't

anast80d ago

When they release the news to start the hype-train, you can give me my props then.

DrDoomer84d ago

I want an alternate timeline spin-off, where part 2 never happened.

CrimsonWing6984d ago

They’ve already done Remasters of 1 and 2… what else is there to Remaster?

AlterRecs81d ago

Considering they remastered the first game twice, who knows lol

CrimsonWing6981d ago

That was a Remake. I guess they could do that to 2, but man…. They should wait a couple generations so it can look like a major upgrade.

The Last Of Us Online Devs Celebrate Their Experience With The Canceled Game

The team is sad for losing out on such a great project but celebrates its growth because of spending time on it.

Chocoburger128d ago

All they had to do was make a basic online mode like their previous games. Instead they wanted more money and choose to go live service which makes games worse in my opinion.

What a waste of time and money, what a shame.

seanpitt2384d ago

I can't wait for season 2 so they can kill Joel off in the first 2 episodes!! Then it will be just Abby and Ellies revenge plot!

Something is telling me that this won't happen though because it wouldn't make sense, oh wait

Linzoid128d ago

Not sure why they didn’t just make Factions 2. There was no need to make it a live service.

TLoU Factions was a great addition such a shame they couldn’t be bothered to remaster that for PS5 considering the crazy high price tag of the remaster of a remaster…

anast128d ago

This is something to be celebrated. This studio is smart and they get it, even factions 2 wouldn't've have been worth the time. I am surprised they didn't just remaster the first one though, but actually how popular was Factions?
