Conzul4153d ago

PANDEMIC EDITION!
Now that's what I'm talking about, baby!

Root4153d ago

WHAT...THE...F***

Where is the one for the UK/Europe....are they bloody serious, they know the PS3 sells more round here so why do they give America all the attention and we get the short end of the stick. If this was any other game, fine I could let it go but it's NaughtyDog and the Last of Us...

Really disappointed with ND, this is just ridiculous, do they not want out money.

To the forums

th3n00bg4m3r4153d ago (Edited 4153d ago )

Yeah, you right. What the fuck Sony?

Root4153d ago

They suck compared to this

No Steelbook

No Statue

The artbook is miniature sized, even the cheaper limited edition in the US has a full sized art book

BX814153d ago

This game has been on my radar as a day 1 buy. I've stayed away from the videos so I can get a great gaming experience, so I was surprised by the dlc being for MP. I didn't know it was going to have MP. The statue will go next to Noble team.

Ezz20134153d ago

every one know the game have MP since day one
but just like SSM's god of war ascension
the SP have it team and the MP have it team

BX814152d ago

Since day one? That's a bit much. The original game play trailer didn't show mp, unless im mistaken.

Ezz20134152d ago

after the trailer Nd confirmed there will be MP

ScubaSteve14153d ago (Edited 4153d ago )

159.99 is alot of money for a statue but it doesn't come with the art book. so either its a statue or artbook. but is the soundtrack a real deal or a digital copy

Torkith4153d ago

Yeah I was a little disappointed to read that the $159.99 doesn't come with the artbook. Decisions decisions.

I know he has a celebrity like status but unless he's announcing his game soon idc what he has to say from this point on.

We need announcement something from him.

Crows901d 15h ago

The dude is a nobody. He's also wrong. Naughty dog is the uncharted and Jak daxter studio.

They only made one universally praised last of us game. They're not know as "the last of us studio" but they are currently known as the "remake" studio.

Lightning771d 14h ago

I like his games tbh I'm just more upset at the fact that he's been talking and talking and not showing anything. I'm an actual fan of his work, don't cars if that's that's a popular take or not.

If he has nothing to show or talk about. I don't care about his interviews, his red carpet appearances or what's next for last Of Us 2 TV, leave that to Hollywood. You don't see SP, Bend, or any other studio doing what he's doing. They're remaining quiet and focused as most PS studios do. He should do the same. The next thing I wanna hear him say is "now heres our game" we know that probably won't be for another year or so, so he needs to remain silent and stay out of the limelight for awhile.

AsunaYuukiTheFlash1d 9h ago

You are wrong. LOU2 won a lot of GOTY and was highly rated. It's okay to dislike the game but saying that ND just made one critical acclaimed LOU game is just hating at this point.

rippermcrip2d ago

Kind of a weird interview. No substance, hardly any questions. It's almost like they forgot to post the whole thing or something.

neomahi2d ago

Oh brother...... It's like a balloon filling with helium. He's got nothing new to say. Naughty Dog went from being a studio of numerous developers to being about him and what HE does. Bruce Straley was the co-creator of The Last of Us, and he left--I think for the same reason Christophe Balestra left and since then, Naughty Dog haven't been the same. PlayStation is incredibly woke, as all businesses seem to be these days, ignorant to what's really going on sacrificing the greater for peanuts, but I think they left because of the uprising political atmosphere. They knew there was nothing they could do about it and an attempt to try and combat it, in today's society would end them up in legal trouble so, they just left, what else can you do when the opposition behaves like a child, screams and yells louder than you want to in raged fits, and will throw lawsuits at you at whatever chance they can, but you don't play that way, so they left. And Naughty Dog hasn't been the same since.

Naughty Dog was huge at one time! They were the underdog that became the top dog but, the direction it's fine, just watch and wait. It's ego, and Druckmanns ego of thinking they're untouchable and can just coast along, will drop them rock bottom, in due time, they could see the same fate as Xbox's teams met. Fans will turn on Naughty Dog because A) Naughty Dog aren't producing, they're not what they once were.
B) Gamers ARE growing tired of the woke culture overtaking their lifetime hobby. They're just more silent about it, it's the quiet cool

anast2d ago

Non of this makes sense. I would like to think you didn't spend too much time writing it.

Crows901d 15h ago

I hope you didn't spend much time reading..it...cuz obviously you didnt understand it. But that's okay. There's many other comments to read...

MIDGETonSTILTS172d ago

You project your own views on the world, and that is a mistake.

Crows901d 15h ago

Um...so you project someone else view on the world? What are you talking about?! We all project our view on the world lol...smh

anast1d 7h ago

It's called perspective. I understand that. But I don't understand the poster.

smashman981d 18h ago

you know it's not his fault that people are interested in what he says, right?

Also, Naughty Dog is bigger than ever.

Crows901d 15h ago

Smaller....where's their last big game? Yeah...I remember when they were actually releasing heavy hitters.

smashman9812h ago

@Crows90 It was in 2020 and despite what a vocal minority says it was critically acclaimed and the 2020 game of the year. Not only that but The Last of Us is also a critically acclaimed television series and PlayStation's most successful foray into Film and TV yet.

So yes, Naughty Dog is bigger than ever, and just because you don't vibe with them or whatever does not change that fact.

anast2d ago

He's a solid theatre arts person, but he's not a philosopher. Being good at one thing doesn't mean he's Descartes.

DarXyde1d 19h ago

I believe that philosophers are more principled than Druckmann, to be honest. It's fascinating that The Last of Us Part II was literally inspired by the Israel-Palestine conflict and was a needed commentary on humanity and ending the cycle of violence, only to have some questionable commentary after 7 October.

I don't hate the guy as some others seem to. He's been a big part of some great games, but I'll never understand the obsession with hanging on all of his statements.

Chard1d 18h ago (Edited 1d 18h ago )

That's a good point in relation to 7 Oct - a far more important issue where valid criticisms could have been made of this guy, but most here seem thoroughly distracted by trivial issues

anast1d 7h ago

@DarXyde

Like all artists he has a signature. People that have an agenda will try to look for that signature and use it. This is why a lot of "journalist/game influencers" hang on every word. Most of us just enjoy his work and get hyped when he mentions something about a possible new game.

@Chard
"a far more important issue where valid criticisms could have been made of this guy"

Which is?

MIDGETonSTILTS172d ago

Sony should try and stay radio silence outside of hard reveals.

It’s painful to wait for any info at all, but it’s less painful than skimming an interview that avoids all details whatsoever.

Commit to radio silence, Sony. You can afford to leverage the trust in gaming output that you’ve cultivated.

anast1d 7h ago

That wouldn't be a smart decision. There must be a constant stream of connection in today's world.

They are working on something new. Not to be rude but it is impossibility stupid to think ND next major announcement is going to be a remaster or their next Last of Us entry is going to be another remaster.

AlterRecs122d ago

I think this is in response to them releasing a remaster for the sequel, a game that didn't need a remaster.

Basically a "why did you put out a remaster no one asked for when you have all there options available"

anast122d ago

They remaster is to put out something quick while they are deving new stuff. I don't get how people can be so static.

AlterRecs121d ago

There's no news about a third game being in production, you're just assuming that they're working on something that they aren't

anast121d ago

When they release the news to start the hype-train, you can give me my props then.

DrDoomer125d ago

I want an alternate timeline spin-off, where part 2 never happened.

CrimsonWing69125d ago

They’ve already done Remasters of 1 and 2… what else is there to Remaster?

AlterRecs122d ago

Considering they remastered the first game twice, who knows lol

CrimsonWing69122d ago

That was a Remake. I guess they could do that to 2, but man…. They should wait a couple generations so it can look like a major upgrade.
