20 Mind-Blowing New The Last of Us Screenshots

The horrific realism in The Last of Us is one of the reasons why critics and fans alike have fallen in love with Naughty Dog’s latest creation. From the painstaking details that make up the character models and the macabre infected to the stunning cityscapes reclaimed by nature.

[Makasu]

Freaking amazing details.

[Enemy]

Lmao @ new. These are all months old.

[Army_of_Darkness]

they're showing the ps4 gameplay version.

[Minato-Namikaze]

@army tough to swallow that this is running on PS3 hardware huh, lol

[FATAL1TY]

★ GOTY ★

[Razmossis]

@ FATAL1TY

Graphics = GOTY ?

I'm not slagging, the game looks promising, but I'm putting my GOTY bet on Bioshock or GTAV.

[Derekvinyard13]

These pics are old

[djtek184]

Thank you Naughty Dog.

[miyamoto]

Truth be told!

Huge Uncharted fan here.... but this game graphics blows Uncharted 3 graphics out of the water!

just look at Ellie's fingers

FFXIII's Lightning can not compare

[GuyThatPlaysGames]

Wow these literally blew my mind -_-

[boldstarr]

The Power of the Cell

[LocutusEstBorg]

LMAO prerendered shots rendered 1 frame at a time directly from the engine instead of live gameplay. The live version will look like SHIT in comparison.

[Conzul]

Aww, looks like SOMEONE didn't watch the 15-minute gameplay previews.

I feel bad for you.

[Temporary]

someone sounds butt-hurt :)

[Walker]

This is best looking game ever made !

[lapiopoop]

This game might be the best game that I might play this whole year

[charted]

The screenshot in the forest where the sun is rising over the trees?

Mind blown!!

Crazy.

[panbit86]

Absolutely stunning!

[LocutusEstBorg]

LMAO they're just prerendered single frames from the enging running at 0.001 FPS. Live game will look NOTHING like that and will be jaggy, blurry and ugly as sin.

[panbit86]

Yeah right, because all the videos released so far are nothing like these screenshots...smdh...

[AKS]

Every time Naughty Dog makes a new game someone claims that early footage is faked in some way, but when the game is released, it looks pretty close to what they had been showing all along. You think this particular time will be dramatically different?

[Welshy]

@AKS

100% agree.

Remember when the plane crash desert scene screenshots were first released for Uncharted 3 the internet went into uproar with "That is never running on PS3!", "There's way too much detail in that scene for it to be ingame", "look at the textures and shadows, that's clearly concept art!".

Those guys were left pretty red faced when they released actual in-game footage of that very scene looking practically identical barely weks later.

Looks like there's a bunch of people for some reason STILL doubting Naughty Dog have the talent to blow our minds even this late in the generation.

Naughty Dog ftw! Can't wait to see what the Uncharted 2 half of ND have been doing for the past couple of years on the PS4!

[ICECREAM]

@kurian

you don't belong here, go play with your dolls.

[black911]

This is why I think it's too soon for PS4. PS3 still has alot of life let in it.

[Zerotino]

Not sure why all the disagrees on your comment honestly, the graphical achievement on this game proves the PS3 is still alive and kicking.

[nosferatuzodd]

indeed

[NeoTribe]

Sure sonys linier naughy dog games look amazing but some people are tired of ps3s lack of ram making certain games run choppy. Skyrim, fallout, gta and such. Thats why an upgrade is long overdue.

[RioKing]

The disagrees came from the fact that black911 stated he thinks it's too early for PS4. Sure the PS3 definitely has plenty of life left in it, but that doesn't change the fact that many people are ready for MORE.

[panbit86]

Yes but all the other developers can't keep up with Naughty Dog's visual quality. Why? Because ND is LEGEN-fuckin'(wait for it)-DARY!

[delboy]

Just as linear as Crash Bandicot from ps1.
Anyone remember, it looked great on ps1 hardware, because it was linear.
Same goes for Uncharted and Last of Us.

If you want to see real graphics capabilities of a system take a look at open world games.
You cant cheat with open world games, you need gpu and cpu power for those.
No fixed camera like in GoW (RE says halo) or predictive gpu load for linear stuff like in Uncharted.

[user7693958]

if you are pleased by this good for you it does look good but I want new and better tech.. even a PS2 game could still look "good" but without new tech games like TLOU will have never seen the light so stfu and stop bi#@$%@ about it.

I WANT NEW TECH!

plus hte PS4 should have been out by know so why the f#$% you complain?
is not like Sony is bringing the PS4 3 or 4 years after the PS3.

ps. day one for TLOU!

[nosferatuzodd]

we can all understand that i just want the ps4 to be online day 1 4bragging rights lol

[ILive]

Beyond looks better than this. Beyond is the epitome of what the PS3 can do. Its still a good looking game, however. The engine is starting to show its age though when looking at the gameplay graphics. These are cutscene graphics. We all know ND excell at this.

[BinaryMind]

Even Epic said recently they could still push more out of the 360. Imagine what more could be pushed out of the PS3.

[Irishguy95]

But it's linear. I want this level of graphics in open games.

[Evil-snuggles]

Irishguy yOu Are delusional if you think the x 360 Could pull of graphics like this I own both an PS3 first party games can't be done on then Xbox 360 the the character models are twice as details On PS3 than Xbox 360

[prejur]

wow @ those gibs. Naughty Dog are extraordinarily talented!

[GiantFriendlyCrab]

are these ps4 graphics?, :)

[Braid]

Actually you might be right, I'm still expecting a PS4 version announcement. I mean look at those screens... Even though I know that PS3 did wonders in terms of graphics with exclusive games, I find it hard to believe that those screens are taken from a current-gen console.

And better yet, if it's indeed the Playstation 3 version we're looking at here, I can't even imagine what Naughty Dog could do with the Playstation 4. Even Deep Down could be surpassed, man it's going to be an awesome generation...

[HarryMasonHerpderp]

It does look too good to be true.
Like the strains of blood coming from one of the infected's leg, I don't think the PS3 could achieve that it looks like PS4 stuff.
Maybe the pics have been photo shopped a bit?

[JONESY6]

Don't forget the PS3 can't do 1080p.

[Braid]

@Jonesy6,

Natively, no, it can't. It can upscale games to 1080p, though. As an example, if you play MGS4, you'll notice that your TV screen is actually working in 1080p mode while the game itself natively runs at 1024x768. This may be a similar case.

[RedSoakedSponge]

anyone think they might surprise us and say The Last Of Us is also on PS4?

these screenshot look just so incredible it wouldnt surprise me!

[Conzul]

I hope so. If there's even a hint that TLoU will be on PS4, I'm waiting till then. Wanna experience this masterpiece in higher quality :D

[Hanso]

yeah me too ill wait half a year

[Veneno]

They wouldnt launch Last of US on PS4 if it wasnt simultaneous with PS3. And Sony doesnt have a history of doing cross generation releases for their games. Ps3 to Vita doesnt count. Neith3r does HD remakes.

[Makasu]

This is Sony's big marquee title together with Beyond (BEYOND!) for the PS3, there is NO way this is coming for PS4, that would destroy they message this year. However, these guys are all ready busy working with PS4 tech, and have been for over a year, so for fans of Naughty Dog, this year AND next year will be amazing!

[SOD_Delta]

June can't come any sooner.

[ps3vita4life]

Wow! All of those screenshots are stunning! Ellie`s eyes look so freaking real in the 5th screenshot. The infected look scary as hell! I wish I had a time machine :(

[daggertoes83]

lol. As much as i want this game and it is a day one buy for me, if i had a time machine i would not be using it to play video games. I would be trying to make the money.

[Bathyj]

Yeah, to buy videogames. ;)

[baj]

That's it. I'm gonna back and boot up God of War: Ascension so I can stare the countdown for the Last of Us demo. Bah.

[Makasu]

Speaking of GoW, wow do you think the graphics will compare between these two games? Both being linear to a point, and both great developers that can push this tech to the max?

[Genuine-User]

All of these are screen grabs from a trailer that was released last year.

[Makasu]

No they are not.

[Genuine-User]

Yes they are.

I have been following this game, I know what I'm talking about.

https://www.youtube.com/wat...

[darthseth24]

@Genuine-user Everything in that trailer is in game engine.

[RyuCloudStrife]

you got owned!!

[rezzah]

I meant to agree. I checked it for myself and every picture can be found in that trailer.

[Makasu]

A screengrab from a trailer and an in-game screenshot are two VERY different things. If you can't see the difference between a simple blurry screengrab of a trailer and a high res screenshot I don't know what to tell you :)

[rezzah]

I associated the words "screen grab" with "picture" since I didn't know what screen grab was exactly. I didn't think twice about it, just replaced it with the word "picture"; you can see me use it in 11.2.

I knew there was a difference, but I thought you disagreed to the image in the pictures not being in the trailer. The difference is the resolution.

I misunderstood the word, just as you misunderstood my comment. The difference between details of the images to the trailer was obvious to me; I just didn't know of any words to categorize it.

[Eyesoftheraven]

'No gods or kings. Only Naughty Dog.'

[GUYwhoPLAYSvideoGAME]

nice reference

[WarThunder]

Man this game looks stunning! Thats what i call perfect modeling, sculpting, lightning and texturing!

This will probably be the best looking game this gen a longside Crysis 3 (PC version) and Metro: Last night (PC version)!

I need to rebuy a PS3!!!

[LKHGFDSA]

I still prefer the original Ellie model.
she's got Golum eyes now.

[baj]

But the original is in Beyond now ;)

[Eyesoftheraven]

No we know that next gen Naughty Dog is going to create actual new life.

[clintagious650]

This is why I Believe SSM when they say give us those specs and we will blow you away, I mean this is a ps3 game from Naughty Dog & look how INSANELY GOOD those body parts look, it looks REAL. I can only IMAGINE what SSM, ND, GG can bring to the table on the ps4.

[leogets]

does look good,naughty dog artists are better than vangof,or however the fuck u spell it.imagine what the could achieve on a supercharged PC architecture otherwise known as the pee ESS froarrrrr!!

[latincooker214]

Like i said before my vote for Goty:)

[isarai]

These are pretty old, makes me even more excited to see how the final game will look.

[Indo]

I want to believe the PS3 is maxed out, but Naughty Dog is making that hard to believe. If this amount of detail can be achieve on a 6 year old PS3, then it be scary good to see what the PS4 can do with so much power. All these new games coming out for the PS3 will surely please me until the PS4 comes out.

[Hazmat13]

this is damn good for as PC gamers say "very old tech" the polygon count is big and for beyond 2 souls and there count, i cant imagine the count for future PS4 titles. and what naughty dog for use in the new generation.

[RE_L_MAYER]

I think picture 5 from the top is the ending of a game from my understanding and from the trailer released not long ago.....wont get into details bug if its tru and she is doing what I think she is doing then its a terrible spoiler
Oh and I still remember that you changed girls face from first trailer because it looked to much like hellen page you bastartds

[younglj01]

Seriously this is PS3 tech?

[ufo8mycat]

Wow okay so the graphics are amazing - so what? I'll wait to see if the game is any good and fun gameplay wise before deciding.

Crysis 3 on PC has amazing visuals, yet I struggled to complete it because the gameplay was so incredibly average, though considering this is Naughty Dog we are talking about, it's safe to say the gameplay will be brilliant.

I'm just saying though, don't be fooled by graphics, like Crysis 3.

I know this is Naughty Dog and all (Naighty Dog = awesome gameplay), but yeah.

[RE_L_MAYER]

Im never fooled by graphics...I can still go play persona on ps2 or shadow of the collossus or fatal frame oand some playstation 1 games are very awesome as well-its all in the gameplay

[taquito]

lol....please say no one here is actually dumb enough to think this is what the game will look like

http://www.youtube.com/watc...
(watch in 720p fullscreen, THAT is what the game looks like)

if those screens were real, which they are NOT, there would be jaggies everywhere like every ps3/360 game

those BULLSHOTS are taken from the pc code, in WAYYY higher resolutions than the ps3 could ever dream of supporting, with WAYYY higher levels of AA and AF than the ps3 could ever dream of supporting

lol and some of it is CONCEPT ART, its a drawing....lol....people are sheep

how do you guys forget all the FAKE screens ND loves to show, they're as bad as Epic with fake gears screenshots

[BitbyDeath]

Correction, that is what the game looked like a year ago. Improvements would obviously have been made since then.

[MasterCornholio]

Bueno Taquito, veo que no te gusta la idea que el último de nosotros tiene muy buena pint. Pero no puedo culparte por eso porque tu cerebero está lavado por Microsoft.

BTW i responded you in spanish because your user name sounds south american to me. I would say Mexican would be the most obvious choice.

But anyways if the last of us looks this good on 7 year old hardware just imagine what Naughty Dog will do with the PS4.

[DeletedAcc]

Old but gold

[goldwyncq]

The graphics look so amazing it almost seems like a ps4 launch title.

[RE_L_MAYER]

Haha my thoughts exactly the same

[SDF Repellent]

My most anticipated game this year thus far. I am still mad the Demo was delayed till May. Should be an epic adventure.

[Scenarist]

if these are real time graphics ..shit

i almost wish they would have used a next iteration cell chip in ps4 ....

[inFAMOUS_KRATOS]

the 6th pic is insane? omg....... the lighting looks amazing. holy hell.

[Orionsangel]

I wish I could stop thinking that girl is Ellen Page. It's distracting!

[PR_FROM_OHIO]

This game will win G.O.T.Y easy!! Can't wait to get this EPIC game!!!

[BlackRock]

@Army_of_Darkness this game isn't for PS4 you jackass.

[mdkgod43]

why dont they port this game to ps4

[Kran]

Is it just me or is anybody else getting annoyed with the "mindblowing" type of titles?

Whenever I see that title, I think of someone taking a gun and blowing their brains out.

Sure, it's pretty amazing, but its not OMFG KINREJKFNRJRNBJBJRBGBRTJGBRJ stuff yknow.

[Qrphe]

These are real-time rendered probably on that 8-PS3 system cut scene render-er Naughty Dog uses for cutscenes. There is a reason why gameplay and cutscenes don't have the same quality in the Uncharted games.

[rammstein91]

what's that really mind blowing is here..that's the naughty dog

[Bathyj]

If they put this on PS4 in 1080p it would easily hold its own graphically against the other titles developed specifically for PS4.

In Dog we trust.
