The Last Of Us’ Single Player Campaign Will Be Naughty Dog’s Longest Yet

TSA: 'The studio’s Eric Monacelli said that the game’s length would “depend on how you play” but added that, as far as he’s concerned, “the campaign is our longest ever.” That would naturally put it, length-wise, above the three PS3 Uncharted games.'

That is great news. How long have they been working on this main game say compared to other Uncharted's?

[Sackboy305]

Old news ... But still great news lol
@t0mmyb0y: they are working on tlou since 2009, after U2 was released (4years)

Edit: U3 development has also started after they were finished with UNCHARTED2, with other words: The development of TLOU is twice as long as uncharted :))

And Jak 2 was I think 15 hrs so expect atleast 16+ hrs

[Plagasx]

Something tells me they're not referring to the Jak games..:(

Throw in regular 30 minutes of cowering in a corner while I pluck up the courage to carry on and I'm looking at a 100 hour game ...

There's a rumour that to save the game you have to commit suicide. I'll be saving a lot.

This game is in serious need of online or offline Mulri-player Coop mode!

[GribbleGrunger]

Didn't ND say that it IS going to have multi-player? I naturally follows then that Co-op will be there.

I don't think so, you already have ellie and adding an actual player would ruin the immersion and all fear that could come with the game.nyou wouldn't have. To be as careful and could rush groups of people because you knew you had someone backing you up

[Kinger8938]

It has mp but its not yet been shown, preorder mulitiplayer bonuses have been shown i think

[miyamoto]

Judging from many gamer's specially Adam Sessler's initial reaction to the game play atmosphere.... where they said they had to stop playing cos they can not take the fear factor anymore....that is where I am coming from.

20hrs length confirmed ! The Last of Us will be Game of the Year, Undoubtedly !

[nintendoland]

so it's 20 hrs long? I finished one GC game few months ago and that's over 20 hours long and that is one gen older. I thought this would be at least twice as long

[MasterCornholio]

And Journey is only 2 hours long and it won a ton of GOTY awards.

BTW Journey isn't a Nintendo game.

;)

BTW this game is being made by Naughty Dog which means that I this 20 hours of gameplay will be amazing.

This is ND talking about a ND game ... What's that got to do with any other game? I spent 120 hours on DQ8. How does that change what ND are saying about their OWN game?

[cleverusername]

I bet you want a Mario tattoo when u grow up don't u?

[CaptainYesterday]

Good! This game looks fantastic!

[Darth Stewie]

I know who your Miracle Cream supplier is. This game does indeed look fantastic.

[fareye765]

Already counting down the days!

[juandren]

Re re re re repost. Lol but still awesome to read again. Can't wait

[Captain Tuttle]

So 7 hours?

I kid! I kid!

[cgoodno]

Don't jinx it!

[cleverusername]

Deja vu?

[momthemeatloaf]

Bad news. Campaigns should be short and sweet (5-6) hours. Once it gets too long you start forgetting it.

Unless its a large open world game that's different.

I don't really care though I hate uncharted and these new naughty dog movies. They need to make a new Jak and daxter

[Captain Tuttle]

5-6 hour campaigns are fine for PSN and XBLA games, not for a full release imo.

[trenso1]

It's the short stories that are only 4-5 hours long are the ones i forget. Pacing is too fast for a coherent story that can resonate with you.

[cleverusername]

More bad news! You don't know what you're talking about!! SOZ!!

[cgoodno]

If I could disagree more than once, I would, momthemeatloaf.
