7 Things You Might Not Know About The Last of Us Remastered

CraveOnline: "We’ve been plowing through The Last of Us Remastered for the past 24 hours, and so far it’s been a real treat. While a lot of the game is exactly what we expected it to be—an even more gorgeous version of last year’s masterpiece—there are a few things that have surprised us."

"Speaker – Plays flashlight sound effects and tape recorder audio"

Not enough devs utilize this feature. I didn't even know there was a speaker until I played Resogun.

[RichardDawkins]

Infamous Second Son had it when you drained powers.Killzone Shadowfall used it for the Audio tapes. Knack, when you collect relics. Devs use it for simple functions and I'm glad they incorporate it into the games.

8th thing you might not know, and only matters if you're an EU gamer, is that the MP in the EU version will be censored.

Keep that in mind if that's a big issue for you.

[RichardDawkins]

You could Import an uncensored copy, couldn't you?

[Yi-Long]

Of course, the PS4 is region free. The USA version is uncensored.

But considering Naughty Dog and Sony are keeping pretty quiet about the whole censorship-issue, I feel we should at least let each other know that the game they're interested in is censorsed, cause you wouldn't want to find that out after you already bought the game and can't return it anymore (if that issue is important to you...)

@Yi-Long

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought that only the online multiplayer was censored. Not the true nitty-gritty campaign story.

[Yi-Long]

@Fenome: Yeah, just the MP, but that's bad enough, isn't it?

[anwe]

Meh, first thing I did when I got my ps4 was turn that speaker off.

[ftwrthtx]

I love that the controller speaker is used. That's a cool feature that should be treated less like a gimmick and more like an actual part of the game.

ND seems to always know what to do with PlayStation stuff.

[JonnyBigBoss]

Yeah. I usually play with headphones but I love the speaker when they're off.

[SpinalRemains138]

No.

Its all been covered here ad nauseum.

[JonnyBigBoss]

Thanks for the useful comment.

[SpinalRemains138]

Right back atcha!

[Heisenburger]

I knew about the commentary but I was not aware of the documentary included. I was actually thinking earlier how I would really be interested in watching one, and here you go!

Excellent.

[DoomeDx]

Hmm is the framerate that bad? I heard a lot of people say that it doesnt run at a smooth 60 FPS.

Can anybody confirm or deny this?

[RichardDawkins]

Its unlocked, but DEVS have said it's a smooth frame-rate and the dips aren't as drastic as people are making them out to be. I wouldn't be worried at all.

Edit: Since you've heard from alot of people it doesn't run at a smooth 60fps then why are you asking? /s I'd rather take a developers word than someone off of N4G imho. I can't wait to play it either. Tuesday can't come soon enough man.

[DoomeDx]

''devs have said...'' I dont really care what devs say. Dont get me wrong but dev's are just here to sell their game and are willing to exaggerate some things. Yes, even the Naughty Gods.

I hope so! :) Frame drops hurt my eyes haha. Thanks though. Cant wait to play it this tuesday

[Neixus]

I've played 3 hours or so, haven't noticed one single dip really.

I mainly play on PC,but i got to have the sony consoles that have the best singleplayers games, so I am well aware if there happens to be some frame drops.

[DoomeDx]

Likewise! I play on PC mostly and play PS4 for its exclusives.

Good to know that its running smooth for you ! :) Bubble up. Enjoy The last of us!

[Neixus]

@DoomeDx
Thanks! And yes, i do really enjoy it. Playing it on grounded mode atm, 3 shots kills me :(

Oh well, i like some challenge.

[MegaRay]

"Bubble up. Enjoy The last of us!"

Its smooth 60fps. Can I have a bubble up to? :3

[knifefight]

"Grounded does a few things to make the game a serious challenge. For one, supplies are extremely rare, making stealth kills necessary. Additionally, game hints, Listening Mode, and prompts are completely disabled. Made harder, the HUD is disabled, enemies do 300% damage, and the A.I. is more aware than in the other modes."

Holy Christmas!

[DoomeDx]

I know right! Survival was difficult and yet so fun! Gonna play Grounded on my first play-through.

Bloaters are gonna be a pain without ammo though :p

[Gwiz]

Like i said,this will look much better than the PS3 version.

Technically the PS3 version had to deal with the limitations of the hardware because ND was really pushing the PS3 as far as they could,and now with more RAM to work with and better GPU to work with it could only be better.
