Another perfect score in Metacritic !

GribbleGrunger3935d ago (Edited 3935d ago )

Yes, 82 scores above 9/10 (including 40 perfect scores) and only 9 scores below that (including 2 anomalies). You can't get more emphatic than that.

I absolutely love this game but the Winter Boss is an obstakle I do not have the ability to overcome. I become frustrated and cannot concentrate so I have put the game away.

I watched the rest of the game through my brother and it has an amazing story, great characters, phenominal voice acting, and fantastic gameplay, but I can't handle it. I was able to take Uncharted 1 and 2 on Crushing but cannot best this boss on Normal, though from what I gather he's the same on all difficulties.

He,s not too hard. Just camp somewhere, listen for him, and make sure you don't step on the plates on the floor.

P_Bomb3935d ago

Just platinumed it. Wotta ride! I'm not even sick of it yet, heh

Jury3935d ago

On my third play through and still loving it. Almost got the plat. I found in survivor, you pick up very little stuff but you can still gun everything down cause they leave more ammo when you're low or Ellie and others give you some... So I don't find survivor much more difficult. Less bombs though.

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.

Chocoburger120d 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?
