What new trailer?

I'm still hoping they add crossplay between PS4 and PS3. I only play MP and all players are on PS3, man it would be awesome to get crossplay with PS3!

i have it on ps3 and i didnt get passed like two hours after the intro. i dont know what it is. i tried to like the game but couldnt. is it really that good?

i know everybody has their own taste in video games. i dont like games that kind of play themselves. i dont like playing through a game just to get to a cutscene so i can see more story. tell me, is what makes this game so great just the story? i do want to see the story, but i dont know if i can get through the boring gameplay to see it. would i be better off just looking it up on youtube? i might give it a try again this summer because of all this buzz, but i really dont know if i could get through it.

The gameplay in the first two hours is pretty nonexistiant actually.  It is clear they are setting  the scene and it gradually evolves into a combination with the story and much more sophisticated combat gameplay.  I would reccomend that you try it on the hardest difficulty you feel wont make you ragequit since it gives you less ressources.  It might sound like a trivial thing but it truly makes it an entire different game as you have to very carefully weigh every decision you make because of scarce equipment and ammo. People dont think of gameplay when talking about the last of us but i truly think that it is one of the rare titles these that when willing to test yourself on highest difficulty it doesnt treat you like an idiot and actually forces you to do stealth while having  a flavour of luck..  It is truly the best game i played this gen alongside fallout 3



No.



With all the worship this game is getting, I'm thinking about sitting down one saturday and watching "TLOU: The Movie" on Youtube. I don't have a PS3, don;t have the time or money set aside to justify getting one, and I'm almost definitely not getting a PS4. This is why console rentals would be so nice. Or PSNow, come to think of it...

That's actually a nice idea, can they cross the servers without doing a lot of work? That would be amazing!
But PS4 players would have the little upper hand with the double FPS.

 

It's a slower paced and tatic MP. Actually being stealth is the better approach when alone and teamwork and concentrade fire are the top notch strategy on groups (usually with a stealth member flanking the enemy team). But they won't even import the player levels from the PS3 version and I'm at 380 there and not that animated with the idea of starting from scratch.

But I understand this re-release isn't for me. It's for the gamers that didn't had a PS3 or didn't bought the game, so in this case it's hard to recommend the PS3 version over the new one, even the price isn't bad because the PS4 game comes with all DLCs and the PS3 season pass ended last month, so getting the PS3 version and the DLCs separated would be more expensive anyway.

I thought TLOU was a great game, but when people say it is the greatest piece of software ever made or even the best game of last gen I completely disagree. I won't be buying the Remastered version as I feel it will be very similar to last year's game, but people who skipped it on PS3 should definitely play through it.  People saying TLOU is better than say Super Metroid, Ocarina of Time, Symphony of the Night and DooM (among others) are crazy, but hey opinions.

What was the best game of seventh gen, in your opinon?

Mass Effect 2, very closely followed by Battlefield Bad Company 2.  On my top 50 of all time games list we made last year on this forum TLOU got #25.  I think it was #5 for 7th GEN overall on the same list.  I had ME2, BC2, Borderlands 2, and RDR above it and Uncharted 2 was right below it at #26 of all time.

I just could not get into ME2. I was so bored. BC2 was good, but I don't even think it's in the same er "company" as RDR or Borderlands 2. RDR is definitely a top contender, I agree...and I'd agree with Borderlands 2 as well (only if including all dlc).

However, borderlands has a lot of "filler", so I would've ranked it lower.

But, I'm glad, you seem to have good taste. #5 is a very good spot, as is #25 on best of all time. I'd say you don't completely disagree. You jsut disagree a bit. :D

bolded all the ones I didn't play. It's a very good list.

I'd include somewhere:
monkey island
katamari damacy
little king's story
persona 4 golden
starcraft
Diablo 2

I'm sure there's more. I'd remove:
NARC
Trials
Eternal Champions
AvP
NBA Street
Mass Effect 2



Anyone know what's going on with the crappy DLC?

Game are selling this, a "day one edition" http://www.game.co.uk/en/the-last-of-us-remastered-day-one-edition-291882?pageSize=20&searchTerm=the%20last%20of%20us&catGroupId=

The Last of Us Remastered Day 1 Edition Survival Pack Includes:

Increased Crafting Speed
Increased Healing Speed
9mm Reload Speed Upgrade
Rifle Clip Capacity
Two Skins for Joel and Ellie
Bonus XP for Multiplayer


I got some pre-order stuff on PS3 AND the season pass. I know all the actually good content is included, but what about this? Will I get my PS3 pre-order stuff on PS4

Because I'm almost certainly going to wait for it to be a bit cheaper

Although you've probable gotten an answer already on whether it was good or not I would just like to add my two cents.  I thought it was meh
