Go ND. I wish nothing best for TLOU and hope they stick up top for a while. This game deserves all the sales and praise.

Pope_Kaz_Hirai_II3950d ago

The last of us in the position a game like that should be.

shivvy243950d ago

its actually just outselling uncharted 3 for week 2 ! impressive

Testfire3949d ago

@ shivvy24, that's very impressive considering U3 had a massive marketing campaign. Here in the states it had a huge Subway promotion.

SoapShoes3949d ago

@shivvy - U3 sold 3.8 million on day 1. TLOU still hasn't hit that figure.

CryofSilence3949d ago (Edited 3949d ago )

Week 1 did about 1.36 million, so I don't know where your figures come from.

CoolBeansRus3949d ago

@soapshoes, there is a big difference between selling 3.8 and shipping 3.8 million. Your facts are wrong.

shutUpAndTakeMyMoney3949d ago (Edited 3949d ago )

I am glad the last of us did so well!!

Now sony knows what kinda games playstation gamers want!!

No need for a new shooter halo/cod contender!

We want evolution!

@SoapShoes: It shipped 3.8 million for the first week, but sold 1.3 million of those to consumers first week.

showtimefolks3949d ago

good numbers all around TLOU is selling well and i hope it gets to atleast 5-8 million with a huge install base of ps3

also we have to figure some decent amount sold off psn so for that we have to wait on sony

Great sales for The Last Of Us and fully deserved. Good to see PS3 continue to flourish as well.

Prcko3950d ago (Edited 3950d ago )

TLOU is alrdy on 3rd spot this year
http://www.vgchartz.com/yea...
this is crazy

HammadTheBeast3950d ago

Third. We all know who sells the most every year sadly. But GTA V will give that game some massive competition.

Pope_Kaz_Hirai_II3950d ago

Its a multiplat so it will sell way more obviously.

Denethor_II3950d ago

"Third. We all know who sells the most every year sadly. "

Yes, but it's great to see that games like TLOU has mass appeal so devs and publishers can see taking creative risks can pay off. Well deserved ND.

sly-Famous3949d ago

In terms of sales GTA will surpass TLOU with ease, and COD for that matter but in terms of gameplay GTA wont even come close.

JBSleek3950d ago

Maybe #10. BF4 CoD Madden Fifa Watch Dogs This holiday season is massive.

ooquis3949d ago

Common ND,bring on the sequel!

warewolfSS3950d ago

Did anyone see the e3 awards yet?

morganfell3949d ago (Edited 3949d ago )

Did you see the new Edge cover?

Did you see the new Stuff:

Is that the best you can do with your trolling? You must be hurting bad. Go watch some TV.

Do you not know who votes on that E3 stuff?

Post marked as OT.

Back on topic The Last of Us has really given ND more weight to expand yet again and make the sound case for more IP risk taking which is great for gamers. Who knows, maybe we will see a third team formed. Can't wait to see what they do on the most powerful console.

Diver3949d ago

Yeah he found that nerve of yours and he is all over it. Mus really burn you up watchin ms with a less powerful an non gamer focused console make one mistake after another. Finishing in last place this gen has gotta sting bad.

solidt123949d ago (Edited 3949d ago )

The Last of Us (PS3) is doing great! I still gotta go get my copy Friday that I pre-ordered.

Looking Back At 2008, An Unbelievably Incredible Year Of Video Game Releases

Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."

CrimsonWing691h ago

I don’t think anything can compare to 2023

lucasnooker1h ago

1998 - the best year in gaming! Metal gear solid, crash bandicoot 3, medievil, half life, ocarina of time, thief, tenchu, resident evil 2, Spyro, tomb raider 3, oddworld abes exodus, banjo kazooie.

It was a different breed of a gaming era. You’ll never understand what it was like back then. The aura of gaming, it was different!

KyRo1h ago(Edited 1h ago)

I second this. Gaming was a lot more varied and fun than it is today. I'm 35 so getting on compared to some here but I got to see all the changes from NES up to now but I've never felt so disappointed in any generation than I have this current gen. I was expecting more from this generation rather than prettier versions of games that came before it. Game mechanics have become so refined that alot of games feel the same and has done for a while now.

Maybe it's time to have a break for a while. I love gaming but I don't feel I get much fun in the traditional sense out of it anymore.

CrimsonWing691h ago(Edited 1h ago)

Metal Gear Solid, Resident Evil 2, Abe’s Exodus, and Ocarina of Time are the only things from that list that I liked.

Here’s the 2023 game releases that I personally liked… and big releases that I didn’t care for:

- Dead Space Remake
- Wo Long Dynatsy
- Resident Evil 4 Remake
- Diablo 4
- Fire Emblem Engage
- Hogwarts Legcay
- Street Fighter 6
- Hi-Fi Rush
- Like a Dragon: Ishin
- Octopath Traveler 2
- Final Fantasy Pixel Remasters
- Final Fanatsy XVI (actually ended up not liking this, but it was still a big deal release)
- Baldur’s Gate 3
- Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon
- Lies of P
- Mortal Kombat 1
- Marvel’s Spider-Man 2
- Starfield (Ended up hating this one, but big release)
- Super Mario Bros. Wonder
- Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (I’m an old-school Zelda fan, but didn’t really enjoy this game)
- Alan Wake 2

I mean, honestly I’ve never seen a year of major IP releases like that, ever.

6 Fun Games Where You Actually Play As The Bad Guy

While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.

Profchaos7h ago

Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.

It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny

Tacoboto6h ago

Armored Core VI?

Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.

Is something big coming soon to branch the story?

banger886h ago

No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).

Infinite Space: The Story Of A Forgotten Space Opera And Sega's Negligence

Space opera fans deserve a chance to experience the vastness of Infinite Space, and Sega needs to make up for its mistake.

ZeekQuattro15h ago

I still go back to Infinite Space from time to time. Probably the most underrated game I ever played.

CDbiggen11h ago

Felt like I was the only person who bought and played this lol
