I would rather see them bring in a new franchise first and save Last of Us 2 for later. It's been 3 years already and still no new franchise from ND for PS4. That has never happened before in Playstation history.

i am pretty sure more people watch PSX than game awards

I'm not sure what the point of it being a Last of Us game would be, then. The Last of Us was sold largely upon its two main characters and the developing relationship between the two. Implementing an entirely new story with entirely new characters kind of undermines the main selling point of the whole experience.

O/T: Not a huge fan of the idea; there doesn't seem to be a real continuing point for the story established in the previous game, and the world of the Last of Us is pretty much interchangeable with any Walking Dead-esque zombie future. I think I'd rather just see them do something new.

You want a new franchise after just 3 years?

Do you know what this could also mean? That we get PS5 sooner than later.

Lol no.

Oh boy

Last of Us came in the same year like the PS4

That doesn't mean the Last of Us 2 will come the same year as the PS5.

Yes it does, what other game should be last one from Sony?
