For the VGAs, Sony was getting everyone excited about a new IP called The Last of Us by releasing a teaser trailer. What they ended up revealing at the “award show” was a new game by Uncharted developer Naughty Dog that seems to set you in the middle of a post-apocalyptic world that is overrun by zombie-like creatures. The trailer was captured from the in-game engine running on a PS3, and it looked absolutely gorgeous. There is an incredible amount of detail in all the textures and models, and it had some really impressive lighting effects. Overall, it was just stunning to look at.
Unfortunately, the trailer didn’t reveal much about The Last Of Us. They don’t come right out and say it’s zombies in the game, but that’s what we inferred from the trailer. We also don’t know which character you’ll be controlling, or if it will be both characters. However, the creatures may be something completely different with their weird, misshaped heads that get blown off. We don’t even know what type of game it will be. Action? Survival horror? Puzzle? Dating sim?
I, for one, am hoping it is a dating sim. Why? Look at the girl in the trailer and tell me that isn’t Ellen Page. Who wouldn’t want to take Ellen Page out on a date? Anyways, there’s a lot of questions that still need answering about this game. What do you guys think The Last Of Us will bring to the table?
