Ever since Naughty Dog gave us the hugely popular Uncharted series (over 17 million copies) we’ve been wondering what would be next. The answer is “The Last of Us” (Sony).

What the critics say:

“After actually playing The Last of Us, it’s not the beautiful graphics, the brutal violence, or the approachable crafting system that stands out to me. It’s the sound. The Last of Us isn’t Uncharted, with its happy score wafting over every moment of gameplay. It’s a slow, suspenseful crawl through a world that can kill you at any moment. As such, it’s quiet – eerily quiet. You have time to listen to the rain pitter patter on windows and each breath of the infected you’re creeping up on to shiv in the neck.”

Publisher: Sony. A new franchise from one of the PlayStation’s top developers! Ever since Naughty Dog gave us the hugely popularUncharted series (over 17 million copies) we’ve been wondering what would be next. The answer is “The Last of Us”. The game features a father-daughter duo portrayed by Ellie and Joel, who fight for survival against 2 types of infected, zombie-like creatures (Runner and Clickers) and hostile bands of marauders in the post apocalyptic city of Boston while trying to flee the quarantine zone and surrounded area. Like many action games, ammo is limited and you’ll have to depend on stealth, the brand new feature “listen mode” and using objects in your environment to succeed. The first tease took place at the Spike Video Game Awards (2012). The visuals in the trailer look fantastic.
