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.
"The Game Music Foundation are today very proud and pleased to announce an additional concert, circling back to the roots of Game Muisic Festival in Poland. On April 28th, 2024, the National Forum of Music in Wroclaw will once again become a place to celebrate the art of video game music, featuring scores from The Last of Us and The Last of Us Part II." - The Game Music Foundation.
Najam from eXputer writes "It's time fore a new installment in the series, not another pointless remaster."
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.
The team is sad for losing out on such a great project but celebrates its growth because of spending time on it.
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.
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…
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?
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
I enjoyed the online co-op in Uncharted 2&3. It’s a shame we’ll never see it again
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.
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.
