Naughty Dog Has Created Quite An Amazing World For ‘The Last Of Us’

I’m incredibly excited for The Last Of Us. I love developer videos for games, because you don’t quite understand how much goes into a game until you see them. In this latest video, which you can check out past the break, the team goes in depth on extensive lighting, dead foliage, and much more. The Last Of Us comes out June 14th exclusively for the Playstation 3.

What’s better than a red band trailer? An extended red band trailer, obviously, duh. The Last Of Us is definitely looking like one of those rare games that gives non PS3 gamers a reason to buy one. In this trailer we get an awesome and gory look at what it takes to survive in the post apocalyptic world The Last Of Us will thrust us into.

Best Buy Has A Pretty Kick Ass Pre-Order Deal Going On For New Games

A lot of people don’t realize that Best Buy has a “Gamer’s Club“. It’s basically the answer to Game Stop’s Power Up Rewards program, only in my opinion Gamer’s Club is way better. Basically you pay $15.00 for a year subscription. The $15.00 pays for itself in no time flat, especially if you’re an avid gamer. If you head past the break I’ve included a list of everything you get with the subscription. But here’s the best part. For a bunch of upcoming games right now, if you pre-order and pick up the games within 7 days of their release, you get a 20 dollar Best Buy Reward Zone certificate. I myself just pre-ordered 4 games on the list, and so long as I get them within a week of their releases I’m making a total of $80.00 on the deal. Head past the break for the list of games, and more Gamer’s Club info.

‘The Last Of Us’ Has Officially Been Delayed To June

Rumors have been making their way around the vast and knowledgeable Internet about a possibly delay for the highly anticipated post-apocalyptic survival game The Last of Us for over a week. Mercifully, Neil Druckmann, lead game designer at Naughty Dog took to the PlayStation Blog to offer some confirmation on the rumors. “As a team we pride ourselves on setting a very high quality bar for every aspect of our games — gameplay, story, art, design, technology and more,” Druckmann said. “We want to make sure The Last of Us raises that bar even further — or ourselves, and most importantly, our fans.” Now PlayStation 3 owners can look forward to kicking some fungal zombie ass on June 14th.

There’s A Web Series Based On ‘The Last Of Us’ In The Works, And It Looks Intense

A couple days ago Resident Evil: Return to Raccoon City made its trailer debut, and while I’m obviously a huge fan of the series, it didn’t look terribly impressive. Now, a trailer for What Remains, another fan-made web series, has made its debut. Now this is more like it. The quality is certainly there, and they even (briefly) show one of the game’s creepy fungal zombies, so that only leaves the acting, which we don’t see much of. It’s being made by Manifest Film, and you can get your first look at it after the jump. Trust me, it’s worth checking out.

For Better Or Worse, These Were The Biggest Surprises Of The 2012 VGAs

Friday night was a big night for gamers. Spike hosted its annual Video Game Awards show, and despite the awkward back-patting and hilariously awful pre-show, as a whole, the event was mildly entertaining. Most of this can be put on Samuel L. Jackson, who hosted the event for the fourth time in the event’s ten year run. Arguably the biggest reason gamers should be interested in the VGAs is the plethora of world premieres, and while this really wasn’t the best — that can be blamed on the fact that this console generation is ending soon, so there aren’t any new IPs to announced), there were still plenty of amazing games that were announced. So what were the best and worst surprises of this year’s VGAs? Find out after the break.

VGA 2012: I’m Having Trouble Watching ‘The Last Of Us’ And Believing It’s Not A Next-Gen Game

I’m honestly having trouble believing The Last of Us isn’t a next-gen title. It just looks so good. Along with a ton of other highly anticipated games, Uncharted developer Naughty Dog’s next project had a pretty incredible showing at the Spike VGAs last night. If you’re unfamiliar with it, it’s a post-apocalyptic tale of survival that stars Joel and not-Ellen Page, who run into fungus zombies and awful people as they make their way across the country. Have I mentioned it’s gorgeous? It is. Check out some brand new gameplay courtesy of the Spike VGAs, after the break.

[NYCC '12] Dark Horse Lands ‘The Last Of Us’ Comic Series

In conjunction with the upcoming videogame “The Last of Us”, Dark Horse Comics has teamed with Naughty Dog to bring a fou-issue miniseries titled “The Last of Us: American Dreams”. The series will be written by lead videogame writer Neil Druckmann, and Faith Erin Hicks. More below!

October 13, NEW YORK, NY—The most anticipated video game of 2013, The Last of Us, comes to print with a comic series and an art book from Dark Horse Comics and Naughty Dog!

The Last of Us: American Dreams will be a four-issue series by The Last of Us lead writer Neil Druckmann, with rising star Faith Erin Hicks (Zombies Calling, Friends with Boys, The Adventures of Superhero Girl) as cowriter and artist.

Ellie, the heroine of The Last of Us, has grown up in a postpandemic world, shuttled between military orphanages in one of the last remaining quarantine zones and resigned to the fact that when she’s old enough, she’ll be channeled into the army or left to fend for herself—until she meets an older girl determined to find a third way out. American Dreams explores Ellie’s backstory and her first steps on the road that led her to her companion Joel.

The first issue of The Last of Us: American Dreams will appear in the spring of 2013.

The Art of The Last of Us, a deluxe hardcover exploring the characters, the infected humans, and the intricately realized world of the game, will launch in conjunction with the release of the game.

The Last Of Us’ E3 Extended Gameplay Is Heartpounding

Hopefully you already got to see the gameplay from E3 for The Last Of Us, because it’s awesome. Well if you missed it, or you just want a bigger taste, below you can watch the extended version of the gameplay. It will keep your heart racing the whole time while Elle and Joel get themselves repeatedly in and out of trouble. Brace yourself, the video is just under 16 minutes long.

If you don’t already know about this game then shame on you. For shame! The Last Of Us stars Ellie and Joel, 2 survivors of a plaque that has wiped out a majority of humanity. You fight to survive as you make your way across what’s left of the United States. The gameplay video you can see past the break is unreal. It’s so, smooth, so interactive, so detailed I could cry.

Ellie And Joel Get Ambushed In This New Trailer For The Last Of Us

Uncharted developer Naughty Dog’s next game is The Last of Us, and it looks incredible. It follows Ellie and Joel, two survivors trying to make it across a post-apocalyptic wasteland that was the United States. Originally, it looked like an action horror game with its apocalyptic setting and Cordyceps zombies, but while those elements remain, they aren’t the focus. This new trailer, which you can watch after the jump, focuses on another horror that inhabits the world–humans.

The Infected In The Last Of Us Sure Have Purty Mouths

Naughty Dog’s next game is the post-apocalyptic PS3 exclusive The Last of Us. It follows Ellie and Joel, two people who are merely trying to survive in a world where humanity has been almost completely wiped out by a mutated form of the Cordyceps fungus. This fungus has adapted to infect humans, creating a freaky fungified creature that’s sort of like the mutant offspring of a mushroom and Left 4 Dead’s infected.

13 The Infected In The Last Of Us Sure Have Purty Mouths

Developer Naughty Dog is adamant that this is not a horror game, but there’s no denying its strong horror influences, especially when it comes to these sexy fungus zombies. Head past the break for an uncomfortably close look at these things. READ MORE

It’s no secret the world is ending this year. There are just too many ways for it all to come to a crashing halt, whether it’s by alien invasion, zombie infection, nuclear fallout, or any number of other possibilities — the point is, tell your loved ones how you feel because we’re all going to die. While I’m spreading some truth sauce on you, you should know there’s a pretty good chance a majority of us will die slowly and very painfully.
