I haven't played Uncharted 3 or TLOU yet but I'm a pretty big fan of ND games. Sometimes they have really really bad difficulty settings, like, Jak 3 is fucking boring for the most part. And then other times, like in Jak 2, they get it justttt right. So I look forward to playing TLOU on hard modes. I think playing an Uncharted game only on normal is getting such a small piece of the game experience and I can see the same thing happening with TLOU.

Uncharted 2 is an amazing game. A high point for that sort of linear cinematic experience that this gen was all about. Uncharted 3 by comparison is a lazy ass rehash with some of the worst combat encounters I came across in a triple A game.

TLOU is a much different experience than those two games since at its core its a stealth game. I think its a really flawed game but not for the same reasons I think Uncharted 3 is a mess. It's not lazy. The flaws are different for me.

See, now, you're just getting me excited. Because I love stealth games and to me the only way to truly test the merit of a GOOD stealth game is a game where you can go through the entire title without killing. Not sure if I can do that in TLOU, but being stealth is a plus for me, and not a detriment. It helps that I enjoy the stealth section in Uncharted 2, flawed as it is.

Hey I'm not saying you won't like TLOU. A lot of people who I repsect do.

And I'm not saying the stealth is the problem with TLOU. I'm fine with a stealth game. I don't think its a very good stealth game. I don't think the way you approach the stealth varies up enough. I don't think there are enough interesting situations to make the stealth feel significantly fresh as the game progress. And worst of all by the end of the game I was just bored with the stealth and took the path of least resistance and just shot everything because I wanted to get on to the next bit.

Those were my issues. They may not be your issues.

Ah, I see. Well I appreciate you telling me your opinion. I'll consider them when I play it. I'll play it on higher modes after beating it too, assuming it can be speed runned. Can you skip cutscenes in TLOU? How many in-engine Gears esque walk slowly while talking cutscenes are there?

The Last of US is nothing like Uncharted. That is completely wrong.

The Last Of Us is basically Uncharted without the climbing and a "survival" aspect that was not only extremely basic but laughably unnecessary in how easy the game is with a story that is cliche zombie apocalypse "there might be a cure" story full of average acting at best.

It was a good game, but best game of the year and one of the best of all time? fuck no.

How is it like Uncharted?

You can't play it like Uncharted. You can't run and gun at all like in Uncharted. The pacing is entirely different. One enemy in TLOU is an actual relevant threat. Gun fights will not play out the same in TLOU since one shot can knock you down.

The survival aspect may be basic, but I don't believe the game was said to be a sim, so I'm not sure what you wanted. The survival aspect is basically you just have to prep and make things. Where resources scarce or something? No they weren't, but the game is still all about you thinking about encounters and how you go about them.

IS the game easy? I guess you found it easy. Many people didn't, I found it modertly challenging in a different way then an Uncharted game. Was the stealth basic? Yes, but it's not a stealth game in the sense that you aren't supposed to kill everyone. It's a stealth game in the sense that it's an option. You can get pass some enemies and you may want to because you don't want to waste a shiv. it's stealth in the sense that you can use it to sneak up to kill people, not get through the entire level unnoticed. And it works exactly the way it's supposed to in this game. Sorry you found it super easy.

Cliche Zombie Apocalypse? Yeah I guess, but the story isn't really about the zombies. Thats just the backdrop. While that's cliche it still executed it fine, so whats the problem. All zombie stuff is cliche.

And average acting? I don't see it.

This just sounds like backlash to the hype, not the game.

TLOU is the best game Naughty Dog has made. Best characters, best story, best acting and writing, most interesting gameplay and setting. It makes everything else they've made look like products from a bunch of amateurs.

I feel like ND, kind of like Guerilla Games was elevated to God status cause early on in the PS3 days the Sony fegs needed something to show how great the PS3 was. And Uncharted turned out to be the least worst game, so bam, now ND is a AAA developer.

I played through a few of those linear western "AAA" hollywood gaming games early on in the gen and decided they weren't at all for me. So thus I've stayed far away from Last of Us. Out of all the top 10 lists I've seen, Jaffe's is probably closest to the kinds of games I'm into.

This is also what I thought. Seen him post some distinguished mentally-challenged shit before.

? I never said it was hard. Just that the controls were bad. I put it down and never picked it back up

e- though I should say I only played Jak 3 through the HD collection so I don't know if they changed anything, gameplay wise, from the original. I didn't like Jak 2 at all and by the time I finished that and started 3 I was already pretty burned out. That crappy driving section was too much

Your kinda poster got banned for a long time because he had a meldown because he, didn't like some game on his steam account and made a bunch of spergy posts about it, bothering him so much that he was will to start a fresh new account just so said game wouldn't be there. :neogaf

I liked Uncharted 3. The first half is ass though.

Jak 1 was pretty damn cool when I played it in 2001 ( :fbm ) but I didn't care for the direction of the sequels.

TLOU was good. I didn't care for the winter chapter, and the stealth is shit but I liked the action and the encounters. That crafting system was so out of place though.

I love the whole "anti-feminine" rappers movement. Dudes are so fucking oppressed that they can't stomach other flavors of hip hop like Drake. Even if they don't like Drake, or Moraodsfja;sdf what's his face, they add variety and balance to hip hop and keep it from falling into a pit of irrelevance. But yeah, let's keep running that same thing we have almost 30 years, and act hard, because nobody can know that I got dicked in the pen and that I liked it.

Men who concentrate on being hard or "manly" are the most hilarious of men. I can see the sweat on Scarface's mug leaking from my fucking laptop. Insecure little dicked phony.
