Almost all the reviews are praising the narrative and calling it a 'masterpiece'. I loved the stories in Uncharted 1-3, so for this to be considered even better is a big statement. Cannot wait to play :drool::drool:

95 on metacritic, Naughty Dog. You don't need us to tell you this game is good, personally I was going to try and hold back and wait for a price drop......but you can't sniff at those reviews, I'm getting it.

It's been pre-ordered for a while on Amazon, can't wait for it to be released and receive it. Absolutely loved the Uncharted games, this will surely be different but I'm sure Naughty Dog will have done something great. And it bloody better be good, it's coming off the back of Bioshock Infinite that I've just finished!

Just read the intro to the Telegraph's review of it, states straight away its palpable references are Children of Men and The Road (which already seemed quite obvious in all the promotional stuff), movies I love. This game is made for me! :lol:

If anyone is interested, you can pre-order this game and God of War Ascension for £44 from Tesco:

http://www.tesco.com/direct/the-last-of-us/135-2876.prd?sc_cmp=aff_1018132

Add both items to the basket and use promo code - 'TDX-PKMW' at checkout to get it for £44. You need to be a new customer to get the code (just create/use a new email address). I had pre-ordered on Amazon but cancelled that and have now ordered this for only £4 extra :D.

Ahh, I thought this game was coming out on PC. :( A quick Google led to me some poor sod being berated by a load of geeky internet tossers regarding this topic and it appears this never will be the case. Shame.

Have been looking forward to this game since I first heard of it. Trying to keep my expectations in check isn't really easy with all these amazing reviews everywhere.

Played the very short demo and loved it. Ammo is going to be a big problem for me. I waste a lot of ammo killing people, but that won't work in this.

The music and atmosphere in the game is :drool:

I dont know if the demo is on PSN, but there was access to it if you had a key from buying GoW:Ascension

Off topic a bit, but to do with Naughty Dog. I wonder what they have for PS4, they have two teams, TLOU has been made by the team that did Uncharted 2, the team that did Uncharted 3 released that game in November of 2011. This Christmas will be 2 years since. What have they got for PS4?

An open world Uncharted? :eek:

I'm hoping for Uncharted 4. They've also registered 'the last of us 2 & 3' so they may do that.

Whatever they do, it'll be awesome.

I like the look of it hugely, but I'll probably wait for some honest Caftard opinions first since I have no faith in paid-for reviews anymore.

They seem to have something in development, but it will be using the existing engine. As much as amazing as this engine is, they actually feel they rushed it so there taking there time devving a next gen engine.
