Last of Us looks amazing as expected from a ND game.

Halo 4 Aswell.

What really cool to see is NFS winning this many awards, i loved the series once and i love what Criterion is doing but when the games comes out review will be avarage, not even on scale with Forza Horizon yet is winning more awards at e3.

I'm not surprised, The Last of Us was the peak of intensity during Sony Conference. Especially when it's a new IP.
