not particularly good shots but they do give you a sense of mood and presentation.

FACTUAL evidence4880d ago

This game is starting to look more and more like uncharted. TBH I lost a lot of interest after the reveal anyway. Not what I hoped the game would be like. I hope It receives good scores though. I might still buy the game and give it a shot.

boogeyman9994881d ago

Can't wait for the better pics

halocursed4881d ago

I really want to see a new trailer with some actual gameplay footage, would love to see the direction Naughty Dog is going take this franchise.

MariaHelFutura4881d ago

Yeah, I'm sick of the talking and hints. I want a gameplay video....

Silly gameAr4881d ago

Same here. Some gameplay vids would be pretty sweet.

DigitalRaptor4881d ago (Edited 4881d ago )

That's the problem when trying to convey what this game is about with gameplay snippets. As we know, they're attempting something that hasn't quite been done before and it could be taken out of context or be misunderstood by certain people, if not broken down for them - we all know how savage the gaming media can be these days. They'll rip apart anything even with nothing to go by.

I think how they're going about it is the best way to naturally build hype and release appropriate information without giving to much away. I trust they'll deliver.

Are those three movies inspiration? Damn, some of my most liked movies.

Motorcycle Diaries: Absolutely phenomenal
Brokeback Mountain: Beautiful movie, although I will admit being a bit cringy at the tent scene.
Babel: Thought provoking, wicked flick.

As for the game, I hope they have a RL inventory system, not the "I have a bottomless magic bag" system.

GribbleGrunger4881d ago (Edited 4881d ago )

Brakeback mountain and Babel are fantastic films! like your taste, so what is Motorcycle Diaries? had myself some Atonement the other day (4th time i've seen it) the most perfect film ever made in my opinion.

SandwichHammock4881d ago

its about the early life of Che Guevara, I'm sure you'll like it if the other two are in your taste.

Cheers

GribbleGrunger4881d ago

nice one. i'l give it a look. bubbles for you

OmniSlashPT4881d ago

Nope. They're the movies the composer of the game's soundtrack worked.

DaveMan4881d ago

No...Gustavo Santaolalla is the one who is doing the soundtrack, he's the same guy whose worked on all those movies, including;

Biutiful
Public Enemies
Into the Wild
I come with the rain

DaveMan4881d ago

Disappointing screenshots in my opinion. It's not that they look bad per say, it's just all they show is Joel fighting people. Would've loved to see more of those artworks that were released earlier like Joel and the girl bonding by the fire, or the giant landscape pic of them crossing a river.

These pics are making the game look like some generic shooter in a unique landscape.

Sevir4881d ago

besides 2 small screens with guns It seems more like a survival brawler Some people just love to make assumptions on nothing! LOL

DaveMan4881d ago (Edited 4881d ago )

All the screenshots show are Joel fighting. I know that the game won't be about that, but I know at the same there's 1000's of people who have no clue what this game is and are finding out about it for the first time in the game informer mag. They should've showed more pics of them surving, exploring, maybe show the relationship between the 2 characters (like this pic http://t1.gstatic.com/image... )

Or show more extravagent landscape pics like these that show the game is more than ugly runned down streets, http://cache.gawkerassets.c...

When all show is Joel fighting, you make it seem to the gamers thats the core focus.

Sevir4881d ago

They get them now they wanna call them generic! did you even read the cover story to know exactly what they will be revealing? I'm sure when they show the game and when you finally play it you'll get the sense of exploration as i'm sure that's a large part of the game! >_>

smashcrashbash4881d ago

You're talking BS man. Give it up. You are judging the game on a few screenshots, screenshots that show melee fighting and you think it looks like a generic SHOOTER? What are you talking about?

Pintheshadows4881d ago

Clearly, Dave has had too many drugs.

Christopher67d ago (Edited 67d ago )

As expected. Unless it's going to Xbox or Switch 2, we can stop hearing about these older games now? We can move on to just news about new games?

darthv7267d ago

....until the PS6 remake followed by the PS7 reboot

Christopher66d ago

Man, first year of PS6 is going to be 90% remasters. I'm going to hate it and likely hold off until new games actually get released that I can't play on my PS5.

Cacabunga66d ago

Yes I’m waiting for complete remaster…. On ps5

OtterX66d ago

...20 years later, "you haven't heard the last of us yet!" *releases The Last of Us Retro Collection*

cloganart66d ago

@Christopher

Oof, yeah. I don't think I'm picking up the PS6 until "Pro" comes out 😂

Cacabunga66d ago

I haven’t played Tlou1 since PS3 and i have the greatest memory of it

Notellin66d ago

I'm already dreading all the cross generation games and remasters we'll see with the next round of consoles.

LonDonE66d ago

lmao this is getting ridiculous but thing is if people keep buying them.. then why would they stop making them?
Peeps STOP BUYING this game.. that actually hurts me to say this as the last of us is high up on my greatest games of all times.. its one of the few games i played through start to finish 3/4 times back to back as i loved it so much. But sony need to stop, give us a Resistance 3 remaster, i would love and buy that.. such an underated series as was killzone.
Or give us infamous.. so many great series and titles i would gladly buy but they just want to keep giving us last of us.

I am done buying that game.. i would only buy part 2 remaster if they remade it and kept joel alive, or i am not interested. Hate last of us 2s story killing off joel.. the actual game is stunning and incredible, they improved so much in the gameplay department but i hate the story with a passion.

We can stop hearing about it when they stop re-releasing them I guess.

I reckon the ps6 version will be 8k 240 and I'll still not care.

I miss new games from nd

Inverno66d ago

And HBO just announced season 3 even tho LoU2 couldn't possibly be so long that it wouldn't be able to fit in 1 season. They're just milking it at this point.

darthv7266d ago

speaking of the HBO series... I felt they should have made part 1 across two seasons, then address part 2 in seasons 3 and 4. so now i have a feeling they rushed through part 1 in season 1 to make season 2 a cliff hanger with Joel's impending demise being the starting point to Season 3.

-Foxtrot66d ago

I love how they decided to rush, chop and change things for Season 1 to get through the game yet for TLOU Part II it’s like “we’re going to do multiple seasons and take our time”

Inverno66d ago

Okay after seeing that there's only 7 episodes I take it back. Though I think it's incredibly stupid not to have just made the season longer. Another season just to finish what could've just been a 13 episode season seems counterintuitive but aiight. I put that on HBO tho.

Neonridr67d ago

This will be the 4th time Sony sells us The Last of Us Part 1.. And the 2nd time on the PS5.

Knushwood Butt66d ago

They don't want Metroid Prime holding that record,

NotoriousWhiz66d ago

Strange, I thought the record went to Street Fighter 2.

FPS_D3TH66d ago

We are approaching Skyrim levels here

Profchaos66d ago

At this point we are at Skyrim in terms of frequency. Skyrim was one per generation. If you exclude VR Skyrim we've now exceeded it

Tlou 1 PS3, 1 PS4 2 ps5
Skyrim 1 ps360 2 PS4/x1/vr 1 ps5/sx

Tlou 4
Skyrim 4

Christopher66d ago

Not quite. Skyrim had:

PS3/360/PC
PS4/X1
VR
Switch
Skyrim Special Edition PC/PS4/X1
Skyrim Special Edition PS5/XSX

VersusDMC66d ago (Edited 66d ago )

Also add skyrim bundles like the one below and all the humble bundles since that's what everyone is doing here

https://www.xbox.com/en-CA/...

darthv7266d ago

@Chris, LoU is getting just as bad by milking the same user base. At least Skyrim was able to sell to a wider audience via different platforms.

Christopher66d ago

@darthv72: I don't know why you're telling me that. I only corrected on number of Skyrim re-releases/ports/etc. I didn't say anything else.

Profchaos66d ago

@christopher guess I forgot just how much was out I think the special editions are technically one release despite being cross platform though would the Alexa version count

Christopher66d ago

@Profchaos: I guess, but I'd consider it a separate release since it rolled them into one at a later date but definitely there is a PS5/XSX version with PS5/XSX supported updates specific to them.

Chevalier66d ago

"LoU is getting just as bad by milking the same user base"

Weird. Like 35% of PS5 owners are NEW to Playstation. Plus this is really for new fans from the TV series for season 2 of TLOU.

I recall the same idiotic comments when the 1st one was remade just before TLOU TV Series came out and it went on the be one of the best selling games that year.

So maybe get your FACTS straight. Unlike Skyrim getting literally releases in 3 generations and 10 releases.

Neonridr66d ago

I gotta figure RE4 is up there too

FPS_D3TH66d ago

No. Those are remakes. Not remasters

Neonridr66d ago

@FPS - we've had quite a few RE4 remasters, only 1 remake.

CrimsonWing6965d ago (Edited 65d ago )

@FPS_D3TH

It blows my mind how people do some mental gymnastics to try to cope with a game they like doing the same thing (technically more) they’re complaining about for another game.

RE4 - PS2, GC
RE4 w Motion Controls - Wii
Literally RE4 HD Remaster - Xbox 360, PS3
I’m assuming a port of RE HD - PS4, Xbox One
RE4 Remake - PS5, Xsex

1 Remake and the bunch are Remasters… how, I mean how—Y’know what, it doesn’t matter anymore…

P_Bomb66d ago

Store says I already own it. I guess it’s just a straight twin-pack. Looks like they added 4 maps to ‘No Return’.

VersusDMC66d ago

You don't need to buy this to get the maps, marlene and bill. It all got patched in to the game on the 3rd.

P_Bomb66d ago (Edited 66d ago )

Good to know. I’ve watched runs of ‘No Return’ but have yet to try it myself. Soon, soon 😉

Knushwood Butt66d ago

Yeah, No Return got a content update.
Three new trophies too.

A mysterious physical edition of a Naughty Dog game is in the works

billibil-kun: "As The Last of Us season 2 prepares to air on HBO, we've spotted a mysterious reference to a special edition of a physical PS5 game from the franchise. Here's our take on the game, which remains unclear for now."

Relientk7777d ago

It's probably a bundle of both The Last of Us games

Nyxus77d ago

Yeah that's what I'm thinking. The Last of Us Part 1 + II Remastered.

lukasmain77d ago (Edited 77d ago )

That's totally what it is I believe. It would be a great bundle for new players getting into the ecosystem

76d ago
Goodguy0176d ago

They're really milking this franchise lol

anast76d ago

You must comment on every Mario, Zelda, and Skyrim article too.

darthv7276d ago

....because there has been the same mario, Zelda and Skyrim games for three console generations?

76d ago
isarai76d ago

@darthv72

Literally yes 🤨

Cacabunga76d ago

Every Mario and Zelda is different. This is just the exact same game over and over

anast76d ago

Skyrim, yes. Mario and Zelda since the 80's

Loktai76d ago

@darthv72 Uh yes. Yes it has. They milked BOTW across Wii U and switch and they STILL want 40+ for it new and never discounted it. They made "remasters" of older zelda games as well on switch and in the past onto the other gameboy platforms from the older platforms. They have done the same with Mario. They port the paper mario games and mario RPG to switch. And now I PROMISE you they are going to show "enhancements" for those same games on Switch 2. I PROMISE you thats going to get mentioned, maybe even tomorrow. Last of us Part 1 has been across techncially 3 generations, but 2 has been 2- and JUST BARELY 2 because it released just a few months before the PS5 did - and so if that counts as milking it, what do you call breath of the wild on Wii U then going to switch or Twilight Princess coming uot on gamecube and Wii - OR ZELDA WIND WAKER HD coming out?

"Skyrim games for three console generations?"

Darth showing some idiocy here. Seriously yes Skyrim has been re-released more than any other game period. It's been released on 3 generations - PS3, PS4, PS5, PSVR, PC, PC VR, Switch, Xbox 360, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S. That's 10 releases across 3 generations! So Seriously get your DAMN facts straight.

Yui_Suzumiya76d ago

And yet Fallout 3 has never been Remastered. Prison time should be given for that offense, lol

darthv7276d ago

Skyrim sure, but the other two... not so much

thorstein75d ago (Edited 75d ago )

@darth GTAV says hi.

Skyrim has an Alexa edition.

Chevalier76d ago

Clearly a guy with business acumen! Why would Sony want to rebundle games and release them in time for the 2nd season of TLOU to release? I mean the last time a bunch of idiots laughed at Sony then guess what? TLOU part 1 for PS5 only hit top 5 sales and kept popping onto charts throughout the year?! Lol

76d ago
Chevalier75d ago

"Skyrim sure, but the other two... not so much"

Multiple Mario and Zelda games have made 2 generations. Maybe you guys forget that over a 3rd of the gamers on Playstation have NEVER owned a Playstation system before and some are coming into it as a result of the TV show.

People said the EXACT same crap when the 1st game got released on PS5, but, it ended up being one of the best selling games the year it came out.

Also for all the idiots complaining. Playstation at least offer $10 upgrades for some of these games. Have you EVER seen a re-release by Nintendo, Xbox, Bethesda offer that?! No I didn't think so.

darthv7275d ago

releasing a newer version because the previous version is not physically compatible is not quite the same as taking a perfectly good existing game that already works on the newer platform and repackaging it under a remaster brand for that newer platform and then repackaging it AGAIN for the same platform.

And that whole line of *insert people here may not have had a PS before* is a line of BS. PS2 is the most selling platform in history... chances are very good a high percentage upgrade to the PS3 and then upgraded to the PS4 and are upgrading again for the PS5. So dont give me that line of bologna. you'd rather swallow every bit of Sony propaganda instead of call them out for milking (and yes this is milking) this game. You know there will be a PS6 version and likely a PS7 remaster.

Of course i am purely speculating on the 6 & 7 but there is a high degree of probability because of what they did already between 3, 4 & 5. And you defending even the $10 upgrade when most of the XB games get free upgrades is just another sign of your blind loyalty. I didnt think it possible and gave you benefit of the doubt but now I can see i was totally wrong.

Chevalier75d ago (Edited 75d ago )

@Darth

Again your examples are absolutely terrible. Repackaged games for new audiences isn't new with the high cost of development. This release is timed for people that are new to Playstation coming from watching season 2 of the TV show. If you're surprised and annoyed by this then stop gaming then. It will happen if there's some new Skyrim, Fallout, Doom or whatever TV show comes out too.

Also you're the guy who defends Xbox for this crap too. Skyrim releases were done while owned by Xbox.

Also you mentioned the PS2, repackaged games happened all the time then too. If you think that repackaged games is going to go away with the skyrocketing cost of development is going away then sorry cover your eyes and plug your ears and pretend like an idiot then. You will be complaining daily soon.
