Josh Wirtanen of CheatCC writes " The Last of Us is a game that a lot of people are excited for, and I’m definitely one of those people. There’s just so much to love about Naughty Dog’s foray into the horror genre, and I’m sure a lot of my peers in the games journalism industry are already making a mental note to keep this one in mind when 2013’s Game of the Year season comes around. And that’s probably valid. Still, I can’t help but feel a bit pessimistic about one particular feature of this game."
"The Game Music Foundation are today very proud and pleased to announce an additional concert, circling back to the roots of Game Muisic Festival in Poland. On April 28th, 2024, the National Forum of Music in Wroclaw will once again become a place to celebrate the art of video game music, featuring scores from The Last of Us and The Last of Us Part II." - The Game Music Foundation.
Najam from eXputer writes "It's time fore a new installment in the series, not another pointless remaster."
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.
The team is sad for losing out on such a great project but celebrates its growth because of spending time on it.
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.
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…
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?
It's just too awesome.
Cerealously though, when I saw the latest crap-your-pants video and heard of the 'listening' feature I knew it was going to come under fire.
Naughty Dog have included this because its a gameplay design that fits with the thier desired feel for the game. It must enhance the experiece or they would never have included it, after all it's Naughty Dog we're talking about here.
Not everyone at home has a great 7.1 surround sound setup and, as advanced as the sound will be in game, it's necessary for some to be able visualise the audio clues.
I don't see what the big deal is. Isn't it better to at least know where you enemies are so you can avoid them? If you just relied on just simply sound cues it would make it very hard to figure out whee the noises are actually coming from. And in a game like this you need to know the specifics or you will be getting a whole bunch of cheap deaths. Remember the clicker can kill you will one hit and noise and sight will alert the other infected. So if you go in not knowing where exactly the enemy is you could walk right into a clicker and be killed instantly.Sound cues won't tell you how close the infected is and how quiet you should be so it won't hear you or where to hide so it won't see you.At least if you know where they are it will give you room to form a strategy.If not it will just be trial and error seeing that they don't even stay in the same place each time. Then you will know which doors not to go through, when exactly to move and if you should duck down if they are coming to where you are hiding.
Listen Mode is a good optional choice . Anyone can listening and it's not a suprehero ability !
in naughty GOD we trust .
I think the game is delayed to 6/18, just got an email from Best Buy because I pre ordered.
