The Last of Us Review: Naughty Dog’s Darkest Hour | Geek Revolt

GR's DeShaun Zollicoffer writes:

The Last of Us isn’t for the faint of heart. It will make you feel like a terrible, terrible person. It’s nihilistic, high on tension, and paints a picture of a grim American wasteland. Naughty Dog tries to sprinkle some humor throughout the game, but these moments are fleeting. The Last of Us remains unapologetically dark, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Just finished it. This game is serious. Darker and more serious than any game I've ever even heard about.

I fell in love with Ellie. I'm on my 3rd playthrough. The AI of this game is truly great.

Live_4_Gaming3949d ago

this game is amazing, so amazing that I try not to spoil it all in one day by sitting down only for about an hour at a time and taking a break from it. I catch myself just looking at the background of the game much like I did at times in the Uncharted series. Even though I haven't beaten the game yet, I can't wait to see what the next installment looks like on a PS4.

Finished the game a couple of days ago. Great game.

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."

anast76d 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.

AlterRecs73d 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"

anast73d 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.

AlterRecs72d 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

anast72d ago

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

DrDoomer76d ago

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

CrimsonWing6976d ago

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

AlterRecs73d ago

Considering they remastered the first game twice, who knows lol

CrimsonWing6973d 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.

Chocoburger121d 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.

seanpitt2376d 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

Linzoid120d 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…

anast120d 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?
