Is it better to leave the title as a stand-alone game, or turn it into a muti-titled franchise?

Good read. Thanks antbolton89.

"A game like “The Last of Us” would be incredibly difficult to do absolutely perfect again."

Yea it's shame Gamespot only gave it a 8.

SmokingMonkey3830d ago

..and Edge gave it a 10.

40 other reviewers also gave it a 10/10.

Stealth troll is obvious.

GarrusVakarian3830d ago

Very obvious.

On topic: There's no way ND will pass up making TLOU2, that game would sell the system! TLOU is one of the best games ive ever played.

SmokingMonkey3830d ago

The Last of Us IS the best game I have ever played!

Damn conversations are keeping me from platinuming it.

TLOU2/too is a must, they should take a long time to make it, with their talent, i'm sure they could make it a masterpiece swell.

Think Uncharted 1 to Uncharted 2 leaps!

IQUITN4G3830d ago (Edited 3830d ago )

Are you sure of this? I thought they gave it an 9

edit: as yes it was a 10

OhReginald3830d ago

you shouldn't listen to just one reviewer's opinion. Tom McShae is infamous for hating things people like and liking things people hate. Hes pretty much the hipster of video game reviwers.

Also he gave beyond: two souls a 9.0....yet mostly everywhere else it got lower than a 7.0

lol
the way it ended says sequal...so many branches from the story can be made...from ellie growing up or to them findin a cure or even a prequel to the game and what happened after joel's daughter died. maybe he knew ellies mom in some way...ect. i think they will make another one its such a great game...great games get sequels, if mario can have an infinite amount of sequels then tlou can have a trilogy. imo at least...

sprinterboy3830d ago

Joel's wife could be trying to find Joel and her daughter, that could make a good story

Kingthrash3603830d ago

so true! so many ways to continue the story it would be a sin not to continue

godofboobees3830d ago

Would love to play a prequel. Seeing the progress of Joel becoming a heartless bastard would be the tits

GarrusVakarian3830d ago (Edited 3830d ago )

I would rather have that as DLC, save the next game to tell someone else's story.

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?
