Uncharted 2, 3, and The Last of Us PS3 Multiplayer Servers Go Offline Tomorrow

Sony's not doing itself any favours lately. DriveClub has been delisted from the PlayStation Store (slightly too soon in some parts of the world) and is due to have its servers switched off early next year. Now, the multiplayer servers for PS3 games Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception, and The Last of Us are having their plugs pulled too.

Goodbye Uncharted 2

One of the best multiplayer games last gen. In a world full of COD clones and online gimmicks, U2 was there with an online that played roughly the same as the single player and was barebones enough that it felt so balanced

Not to mention the best quality was how it felt more like skill v skill, not skill v what unlocks I have

If only they kept it simple for future games instead of ruining the online with awful gimmicks that had no place in the game

Uncharted 2 multiplayer was so good, and fun as hell.

PhoenixUp1698d ago

I enjoyed the online co-op in Uncharted 2&3. It’s a shame we’ll never see it again

Eidolon1698d ago

When's the last time you played it, though? Be real. It's actually amazing they kept it going for so long.

PhoenixUp1698d ago

I play it very frequently, why do you ask

Giblet_Head1698d ago

Until at least a proper setup with XLink Kai is available.

MrSwankSinatra1698d ago

Man wish I could of got that 100% on Uncharted 2, but my PS3 finally got the YLOD, unfortunately. Uncharted 2 will always be one of the greatest MP experiences I've ever had. I'll always remember the good times.

Eidolon1698d ago

There's really no excuse. I think you can grab a used one for less than a price of a new PS4 game. Plus there's the Uncharted collection for PS4.

MrSwankSinatra1698d ago

yeah, because money grows on trees apparently /s and why would i buy the collection on PS4 when that version has no mutliplayer, plus i think you got shit confused, i platinumed the game when it came out, when i said 100% there are add on trophies i wasn't able to get, because for obvious reasons.

mch2011uk1698d ago (Edited 1698d ago )

Same here, its the only multiplayer game I've ever had most fun with. Great times.

Tross1698d ago

I have fond memories of playing Uncharted 2 and 3 online with friends. That was some years ago mind you, and it amazes me that the PS3 servers have been kept online all this time. Well, I guess that's a testament to how great these games really are and I'm glad I'm here to reflect on the end of an era. At least we will always have the singleplayer side of things.

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."

anast85d 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.

AlterRecs82d 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"

anast82d 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.

AlterRecs81d 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

anast81d ago

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

DrDoomer85d ago

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

CrimsonWing6985d ago

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

AlterRecs82d ago

Considering they remastered the first game twice, who knows lol

CrimsonWing6982d 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.

Chocoburger129d 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.

seanpitt2385d 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

Linzoid129d 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…

anast129d 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?
