Splendid the fact that you have been on it for 12 hours and not completed it sell's it for me.
As i spent 160 hours on the elder schrolls Oblivion so all good for me.

Yeah dude, the locations are so amazing you just have to explore everywhere. I think that's where most of the hours are spent.

Right i can't be bothered reading through 133 pages.
SO! Is this game worth getting then?
Is it similar to the Uncharted games?

Game mechanic similar in many ways; tone, story, characters very, very different

Without spoilers, does the game pick up some speed after the 50% spot? I've taken my time and logged 10 hrs. and it seems to be like Uncharted but more walking around and occasional fights, though if you sneak, there's not much to fight.

Mhmm well I didn't really feel the game was "slow", mainly because either you get into a conversation with Ellie, or drool over how good the scenarios look, or really get into looting, but the game has sort of the same speed from start to finish, great pacing I call it

So IMO the game doesn't go faster, it maintains it's speed.

I'm afraid to voice an opinion on this game. If you say one slight negative thing people go nuts....

And everyone without a ps3 should smarten up and buy a ps3 just for this game.

That'd be me.

So, is anyone else having any multiplayer issues? When I get to week 8, the multi player freezes up on me and boots all of my survivors, makes me have to power off my ps3 manually and starts me back at week 1.

I don't think anyone has said anything negative for people to go nuts about. I say go for it. It's getting boring with everyone loving this game.

There is nothing boring about it. The game is a masterpiece, everyone loves it, end of story.

Apparently not. It sounds like Kamhaul would differ. Nothing wrong with a good debate. I love the game too. It's impressed me more than most games have this gen. I'd still be up for a different opinion.

Re: 'The Last of Us' - new IP from Naughty Dog

The biggest difference between this game and Uncharted to me is the amount of supplies in the game. The Last of Us is more of a survival game while Uncharted is more of a 3rd person shooter + platforming.

I find myself constantly trying to not use my pistol and revolver so far as ammo is pretty scarce. I spend most of my time avoiding enemies as much as I can while finding things to pick up. I would choke out some of the enemies if I have no choice. Uncharted on the other hand is me finding cover and then goes guns blazing as soon as I see an opening. I do feel that some may not like The Last of Us gameplay because its more of survival than action oriented. I could be wrong also as I just got the part where a friend owes me a favor section. Maybe more action later?

The whole section with him is action.

Yeah, Bill's section was a good time to just let loose. I said to myself, "**** it. Clickers, THIS is my BOOMSTICK!"

I said the same thing! But then I ran out of ammo so legged it

Re: 'The Last of Us' - new IP from Naughty Dog

I don't see what could possibly raise negative opinions in this game except for

Spoiler

the ending.

I see that causing a little debate, but for me it was perfect and refreshing.

But I could actually use a negative opinion, I'd like to debate if this game is as solid as I think it is or to see if I'm missing something.

Spoiler

The ending was good right up to the final line that ellie spoke, I was like "Thats It!?".

Loved the twists in this game, very Clever!
Currently on NewGame+ to nab a few trophies since I seemed to only get about 2 or 3 in one playthrough

Re: 'The Last of Us' - new IP from Naughty Dog

I think the story was great, some of the best cutscenes I've seen in a game. My main problem was with the gameplay though. It never felt like I was actually in a dire situation to save my supplies. Also, am i the only one who thought the gameplay was a little repetitive? It felt like there were a ton of fights that could've been cut out. But I understand that in the end of the day it's an action game and they had to extend the game with those fights. Also, those parts where you had to get the ladder, find the plank, find a garbage bin, etc were done way too many times. No post apocalyptic world would have those things laying around everytime there's a ledge to reach or body of water to get over.
Don't get me wrong I still enjoyed the hell out of this game. Maybe I'm being to critical, but in my opinion it's not the "masterpiece" everyone says it is. I think it would've been a better movie than a game.

8.5/10 for me (don't kill me)

Re: 'The Last of Us' - new IP from Naughty Dog

I have nothing against the ending. At least it left you wanting more and didn't wrap it up all nice for you like most bull****.

I'm surprised I didn't run out of ammo. The bloated actually wasn't that difficult in the Gym. One molotov and a few shotgun blasts and he was out. I just need to remember that when I work up the cajones to revisit the hotel basement.
