Naznatips has written a glowing preview of the game based on a behind closed doors screening:

http://www.gamrreview.com/preview/89032/the-last-of-us-redefines-the-survival-genre/

"Survival-horror has been a common genre in gaming for many years, but no game has ever shown such an intense and powerful focus of that first word. Survival is our first instinct, and watching The Last of Us immediately pulled me into a desperate, edge-of-my-seat disposition. This is a game I hadn’t seen before, and between the gorgeous graphics, dynamic AI, visceral, heavy combat, and powerful storytelling the feel of the game is wholly unique. If you’re looking for the biggest surprise of the show, look no further. This isn’t just another zombie game, or another Uncharted game. The Last of Us is the survival game I never knew I wanted, but now can hardly wait for. "



Thats a fantastic read. Thanks for posting it!

Both games sound sweet!

3eyond needs move support just like Heavy Rain. Using move transformed the game from great to all time favorite. I think because the game had minimal controls move really helped to make you a part of the game. It transformed it from feeling third person to first.

Wow reading about all the incoming TLoU news, especially about how advanced the AI is, has my hype going to a point I didn't expect, even for a ND game. Really can't wait to get my hands on this. Wish so bad it was coming out this year.

This is probably the best article there is regarding The Last Of Us' AI (and answers your question of "how did I know", Jay50)

In a more dangerous situation, however, every single dynamic takes on major significance. When they’re discovered, Joel pulls out his revolver. Instantly, a scavenger warns his friends: “Aw, shit! He’s got a gun!”

“How many did you see?”

“Only saw one! He’s right by the door!” And yes, that’s right where Joel’s hiding. When he fires his gun, Ellie jumps, covering her ears. One of the scavengers gets the jump on Joel, bashing him up and adding a nasty cut across Joel’s nose before putting him in a choke hold for the men aiming from the windows. They take their time, making sure they hit Joel and not their friend.

At times like these, we’ve seen Ellie jump in before, using her butterfly knife to stick someone who’s got Joel on the ropes. This time, nothing … because those gunmen at the windows will take her out if she tries, and she knows it. Naughty Dog built a survival instinct into Ellie. It’s so good, Naughty Dog decided that players didn’t need the ability to direct her. Ellie directs herself.



It's Jay520, not Jay50. I take offense to that.

So she'll only help out when it's safe for her. I wonder if there's a limited number of rescues she'll perform, or if she'll rescue Joel everytime she can do so safely. I hope for the former. I like dying. I need to wait for more info

Well sorry you take offense to typos, but this is the internet. They're gonna happen (like when you called me CGI quality one time instead of CGI-Quality). Not a big deal.

To the game, everyone who's played the game has said the A.I. is second-to-none [literally]. No game before it is as smart. You basically got the answer you were looking for.



Well, if you remembered it after all this time, then it must have been a big deal. When it comes to usernames, I know how important these things are. They're our trademark. They are who we are. And if you change the username, it's like you're changing a person's character. Y'know?

Aaanyway, yes, the game appears to have some nice AI. I wouldn't say THE best, but still amazing.
