Why You Should Be Excited About The Last Of Us!
So at the VGA’s last night Naughty dog revealed to us their new project, The Last of Us and we thought we would put together a list of reasons why you should already be excited about this new game. Enjoy!
The Uncharted series is without doubt one of the best looking games on the PS3 and from the looks of the trailer they aren’t holding back. You can be sure that the ruined streets of what looks to be like New York will look absolutely stunning as Naughty Dog seemed to have perfected the look and feel of ruined temples and cities can’t be that hard, can they? Naughty Dog have also said on twitter that “#TheLastofUs trailer was definitely not CG. all in-engine captures from PS3, just like Uncharted cinematics”.
Now The Last of Us looks like it could be playing along the lines of Dead Island or the Left 4 dead series with those mutated creatures trying to suck out the brains of the old guy in the trailer. Not only that but other Humans could be an altogether different challenge in the game as they could turn out to be smarter, better armed and you might have to turn to altogether different tactics in order to overcome these challenges. I mean we saw this in Uncharted 2 when Nate had to take on both humans and those weird blue things at the end of the game. In their press release Naughty Dog have stated that:
The Last of Us is a genre-defining experience that blends survival and action elements to tell a character driven story about a population decimated by a modern plague. Abandoned cities are being reclaimed by nature and the remaining survivors are killing each other for food, weapons and whatever they can get their hands on. Joel, a ruthless survivor, and Ellie, a brave teenage girl who is wise beyond her years, must work together to survive their journey across what remains of the United States.
So we know that this game will be on a visual level similar to that of the Uncharted series, but what is the story going to be like? I mean at first look the trailer sort of gives off an I Am Legend sort of Vibe with the ruined city and those mutated creatures trying to kill you. But it could be quite reminiscent of HomeFront but that’s just my theory.
Although one of the defining reasons why we should be really excited about this game is of course, the gameplay! Now with a proven developer running the show, I think it is safe to say that if they take a leaf out of any of the Uncharted games then The Last of Us will prove a HUGE success and could be another defining game in the console wars.
Overall I think it’s safe to say that The Last of Us could potentially be one of the biggest survival/action games to ever hit the PS3, I mean my mouth is just watering at the thought of the combination of Naughty Dog gameplay/ graphics coupled with the whole story behind the game and I can’t wait to get more information on the game!
So what do you guys think of the game after having seen the trailer + screenshots? Tell us in the comments section below!
