Last of Us on PS4 is great news, but does it confirm a sequel?

GamesRadar: The Last of Us’ confirmed reappearance as a tooled up, extra-pretty, 1080p PS4 game is undoubtedly a good thing. Yes, we already find ourselves awash with a mighty maelstrom of moans; a blithering howl of “Boo! Rehash!” from that sector of the internet that inexplicably equates blind cynicism with the expression of intelligence. But realistically there’s nothing bad about this situation. In fact with a little forethought, it becomes clear that The Last of Us’ next-gen appearance is a probable harbinger of very good things for the future.

E3 2014 -> U4
E3 2015 -> TLOU2

xxxGEOxxx3659d ago

I hope so, but I'm also being a bit greedy hoping they would announce SOMETHING in regards to a TLOU sequel at this years E3...lol

ArchangelMike3659d ago

TLOU sequel is pretty much confirmed. But yeah, nothing till E3 2015.

randomass1713659d ago

How much you wanna bet Remastered will have a teaser trailer TLOU2 after you beat the game?

avengers19783659d ago

I certainly hope that ND continues TLOU, there is so much they could do with the universe they created. I'm still hoping TLOU 2 is basically The Last of Us year 1, as the first game took place 20 years after the outbreak. A year one game means you have infected, a military presence, and still nasty people to deal with... They could have completely different people.

I like TLOU as much as anybody, but I'm kind of hoping after Uncharted 4 we get a new IP from Naughty Dog, then back to TLOU. That rumored space epic sounded great to me. I'd hate to see ND get stuck in that never ending loop of sequel making, even though whatever they produce is a day one purchase for me, sequel or not it will be absolutely brilliant.

Not necessarily.

It could just be bringing a critical acclaimed title to a wider audience.

xxxGEOxxx3659d ago

This is true, but I like to be optimistic.

randomass1713659d ago

I feel ya there, dude! Here's hoping. :)

ArchangelMike3659d ago (Edited 3659d ago )

Yeah, don't forget about TLOU Movie *spits*

That'll bring TLOU to a wider audience. I bet they release TLOU2 at the same time. I'm calling a movie/game bundle.

xxxGEOxxx3659d ago

Judging Naughty Dog's history, that sound uncharacteristic of them to do something like that. I don't think they'll let themselves be hindered by a movie tie-in.

Aaaaaand there goes my last bubble...lol

jay23659d ago (Edited 3659d ago )

Actually it really isn't, it means resources have been moved from Uncharted to port it over. I'd rather the X amount of people worked on Uncharted and it came out 6 months earlier, or those same members started number 2 on PS3/4 and a LOUS PS4 port that came with TLOS 2 s than a year bringing TLOS to ps4. They got it right with Tomb raider, shipping the ports out, wrong actions in this case.

ArchangelMike3659d ago

Umm, you know that ND dog have two dedicated teams right. And that there's already a full team working on Uncharted 4 right?

Also you know that the TLOU team are in between project right now. Which mean's that they still have all hands on deck to work on TLOU Remaster, WITHOUT having to take resources from the Uncharted 4 team.

If anything, the fact that they are working on the Remaster only delays their next project. But not really, because it will not take the full team to do a port. Heck Bruce and Neil are probably already casting and script writing for TLOU2, while the port is underway.

randomass1713659d ago

It doesn't *guarantee* a sequel, but it could sure serve as an opportunity to let people know about it. The Sly Cooper Collection had a teaser trailer for Sly 4, so.

WeaseL3658d ago

New story based in the same world hopefully

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?
