Naughty Dog on The Last of Us: “We Pushed the PS3 to 110%,” Early Combat was More “Martial Artsy”

"I know I’ve mentioned before how busy Neil Druckmann and Bruce Straley have been promoting The Last of Us (it paid off), but looking at the amount of interviews they’ve done over the past few months is still mind-boggling. Hopefully they get to rest up soon and start work on The Last of Us 2: Even Less of Us for PS4." - PSLS

i usually think of when i see/hear...110%

OT, the game will go down in history as one of the best made.

Peppino73936d ago (Edited 3936d ago )

In other words... nothing anyone else will do will look better than TLOU, unless someone pushes the ps3 to 111+%. Well if TLOU holds the crown... no other game should feel bad because the game was perfect.

***SPOILER***
I would have preferred a better boss fight though. I love boss fights. Thats just my opinion.

Conzul3935d ago

The boss fight was fine. It was desperate, deadly, with a feeling of hopelessness throughout.

What on EARTH did you expect from The Last Of Us?

Dwalls11713936d ago

Loved last of us but ummmm its greatness In its storytelling pacing, voice acting etc.... their is nothing in last of us that pushes the limits of the ps3 from a " Technical stand point"

So sry I have to respectfully dissagree with ND on this one...Games like GOW3 MGS4 seem like they pushed ps3 to the limit far more then Last of us...From a "Technical stand Point"

SheenuTheLegend3934d ago

Yo Yo Your thinking is so low low

ziggurcat3936d ago

i thought it would be more like this:

"The Last of Us 2: Even Less of Us"

Haha! that caught me off guard.

Conzul3935d ago

@Neo-Axl

It's "Fewer". You can count people on your fingers, so he's right. The only way it would be "less" people is if there were a vat full of dissolved people in it and you could pour out "less" of it.

Neo-Axl3936d ago

Stealth disagrees, Butt hurt tidal wave in pursuit!

WalterWJR3936d ago

I thought uncharted 3 looked better but this is probably because TLOU has such a grim atmosphere.

HammadTheBeast3936d ago

I played Uncharted 3 after TLOU and I can safely say that the animations, quality, and graphics are much better. Both are great, but it shows that the studios really evolved.

WalterWJR3936d ago (Edited 3936d ago )

I think I must have got a dodgey disc or something because I was not blown away with the ghaphics like I was with uncharted 2 and 3. This also could be because I have played a fair bit of PC in between.

Even so, it Was hands down the most fun game I have played this generation.

hollabox3936d ago (Edited 3936d ago )

I'm with WalterWJR, the Last of Us looks great for the most part but its kinda inconsistent. Some levels especially the forest levels made my jaw drop. But levels in town during the day had allot of aliasing artifacts, low res textures, and a lack of anisotropic filtering made viewing objects from the side blurry. The non pre baked shadows looked blocky with cascading artifacts as well.

I actually think Uncharted 2 had the best graphics for me on the PS3. I had more jaw dropping moment in that game than any other console game. But it could be because we have gotten use to a certain visual standard making any improvements hard to notice unless its a big leap in visual fidelity.

I wish Joel pulled Wing Chun on those clickers!!!!

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."

anast77d 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.

AlterRecs74d 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"

anast74d 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.

AlterRecs73d 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

anast73d ago

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

DrDoomer77d ago

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

CrimsonWing6977d ago

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

AlterRecs74d ago

Considering they remastered the first game twice, who knows lol

CrimsonWing6974d 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.

seanpitt2377d 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

Linzoid121d 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…

anast121d 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?
