I'm not very good at persisting with things though, unless it's Nani. I don't know what to do...
Gaming The Last Of Us
- Thread starter iSparky
- Start date
It's definitely not a steaming pile of shit. I still enjoyed playing what I've played so far (not much) but it does feel like I'm just following a path they've set for me. Very linear.
Better or worse then the new Tomb Raider? 'Cos I fecking loved that game.
that's a shame, I assumed it'd be pretty open world.
Yeah, the new TR is stupidly good, best adventure game I've played in years.
First couple of hours are cack. Picking up now but it's not anywhere near as good as the hype train / reviews will have you think. 7.5/10 so far. Half way through so I imagine I'll end up giving it an 8/10.
I'd say not as good as TR so far, I also loved tomb raider
I was also expecting the game to be somewhat open world, but once you go through an area you can't go back
I was really looking forward to getting this game but not liking the look of some of the opinions in here.
I guess it comes down to what you want from a game, as a big Uncharted fan I'm hoping I'll enjoy this. Uncharted is a pretty easy, linear game but I still had a lot of fun playing it and getting caught up in the storyline. I can imagine if you were expecting huge open worlds to explore on your own then you'd be disappointed.
I still think I'll get this when I get paid next weekend.

I was expecting it to be exactly like uncharted but with zombies
Yup pretty much. If you're an Uncharted fan you'll like this. I love Uncharted too (apart from the 3rd) but I was expecting something different.
In a sense yes, but a lot slower paced and not as good
Anyone else have the 'auto save' bug? Just started the story and I have the fecking glitch 
Not going to play until they fix it.

Thats the same as Uncharted, used to piss me off. Loved that in TR you could backtrack

Yup, just lost 2 hours worth of gameplay. Fantastic.
Actually my game is now broken. Can't progress any more unless I want to complete the game in one sitting and I am not starting this save all over again.
I keep saving mid checkpoint anyway have about 4 save games on the go I keep overwritingAnyone else have the 'auto save' bug? Just started the story and I have the fecking glitch
Not going to play until they fix it.
Is this happening only on the old Ps3's?
Nope it's every PS3. Can't believe this shit gets through testing.
Either it gets fixed asap or I'm returning it.

I can't even do that. It just freezes up at the beginning everytime when they all get in the car to leave. I'm right at the start so didn't lose much progress but this is very annoying.
My plan all day has been to trade in Tomb Raider & Dead Island Riptide (didn't enjoy it at all) +99p for this at Game...
I'm not so sure now... bastard underwhelming games!

Mine managed to un-freeze itself. Very lucky. Am going to keep 2 save files going now.
Some are saying uninstall the 1.0.1 update helps
If someone is stock in the game and doesn't know what to do, here is a guide:

Don't know how on Earth he made the guide so fast. but definitely Absolute Steve's guides are always the most qualitative ones.

A possible fix to the autosave glitch may be to play the game in offline mode (sign out of PSN). I've tried that and so far it's not got stuck as it did before.
Autosave glitch fixed thank god.
Played for about 90 mins today, game seems to be running fine *touch wood* on my fat ps3 and the autosave bug is definitely now fixed. In terms of the game itself, it's been pretty slow paced so far but quite intriguing and I feel that the cover system (or lack of) is interesting and is similar to Tomb Raider. It feels a bit more natural than the Uncharted system and the gunplay also feels more satisfying in my opinion. The hand to hand is alright, nothing ground breaking but uses a similar system to Uncharted in terms of Square x3 to punch, triangle to counter etc. The atmosphere and sound is fantastic, as is the musical score to this point. I'm playing on Hard because I want it to feel like a genuine struggle to survive and the lack of ammo is refreshing compared to the usual shooters where you have more than you can possibly carry. However, it does seem a bit daft when someone is shooting at you, you kill them and there is no ammo to be found. The game has a lot of potential, excited to progress further.
Played about 20% so far. Really enjoying it, although the AI is stupid. They let the companions walk right past them without noticing and only focus attention on me. Also not picking up ammo from dead guys is a bit silly.
As others have said, the atmosphere and music is brilliant.

I wanted to ask about the music, I was really excited when I saw it was Gustavo Santaolalla who was in charge, I love his stuff and especially the score he wrote for The Motorcycle Diaries. Glad to hear it's one of the positive aspects of the game!
Glitch fixed according to Naughty Dog twitter for anyone wondering. Going to start it now
I decided to pick it up in the end. Thought the prologue was pretty fantastic... my hopes are high!
I've completed it and it's probably one of my biggest gaming disappointments. Still a solid game but with the hype and reviews it was getting I really was expecting something special. Not sure if I can be arsed to replay it on survivor mode.
Luckily I watched the walkthrough on youtube before buying, didn't look that great.
Couple hours in and I think its been great so far. Almost exhausting in its tense atmosphere.
Personally i love it, think it's great. Playing it on hard and the tension and atmosphere really strikes home.
Only annoyance is that, once again your "sidekick/s" are largely ignored by enemies. Kinda of spoils it when your trying to walk through a room in silence to avoid the clickers, and thunderfoot bill comes storming past without rousing anything from the enemy A.I/

I agree with Hal. When I am sneaking through a room with enemies, they ignore the girl walking right in front of them. The prologue has got to be the best intro to a video game I've ever seen. Fantastic stuff.
Will we have a RedCafe faction for MP?

Having just finished Metro: last light, i have to say i am slightly underwhelmed after all the hype about this game. Atmosphere and tension wise i have been completely spoiled by Metro although The Last of Us is still a solid game.
Think I might trade in Grid 2 and get this today.
I'm 11% in so far and feelin underwhelmed. The prologue was fantastic, but so far it's not been as good as I thought it would be. Still a solid game, mind.
I've heard from a few people who have played it for more than 8/9 hours and they're saying its fantastic
I've played 7 hours and it picks up in Pittsburgh. The Lincoln level was really draggy imho.
