So as part of the multiplayer strings leak (see this thread here), the titles to all of the game's cutscenes also leaked, and they apparently detail the whole plot, so be wary of where you go on the internet to avoid spoilers.

They're currently not included in the other thread I linked btw, so that's safe to look at.

Just a heads up to avoid spoilers.

Update: Multiple people are reporting being spoiled by 4chan, so we're probably at the massive leak stage.

Update 2:

Aquamarine said:
From what I gather, so far there's been evidence that the leaks have appeared on:

IGN forums
Reddit's /r/Games
4chan's /v/
YouTube comments
Pastebin

Am I missing anything?

Update 3:

Aquamarine said:
I just want to bring to attention that there is now MORE leaked information floating around the web about The Last of Us from the same source.

This leaked information expands on the initial cutscene title leaks by revealing all of the major locations within The Last of Us and when they take place within the cutscene titles.

So basically, yet another thing to watch out for.

Only about 4-8 people know about the spoilers, apart from ND.

Thanks for the heads up Niro. Total media blackout initiated.

Welp. Good bye Last of Us threads.

Woah, super thanks for the heads up Nirolak.

Alright, time to turn off the internet. See you in june guys

Impeccable · May 1, 2013

Ugh.

The worst part is people will be intentional assholes around the internet with spoilers (obviously not NeoGAF but...)

The story cutscenes were up for about 8 hours, but it was during overnight hours in the USA. Only a handful of people got see that part before it got deleted, including me. I copied the titles in a safe place. Don't worry though, I will never spoil the game.

Loudninja · May 1, 2013

Beware of any youtube comments of course.

Phire Phox · May 1, 2013

Don't think you'll have to worry about this on here. The Ban hammer will come down swiftly for anyone who spoils it

Thanks. What the fuck. And we have so long to go, too.

Along with the above I'd avoid social media such as Facebook and Twitter.

Friends that you think would be dicks tbh.

I wouldn't count on it. There were people who did it in the Bioshock Infinite thread before launch.

Nothing stopping anybody else from taking a peek at the files and spreading the info if it's buried in the GoW:A disc.

Camjo-Z · May 1, 2013

Sweet, time to go hunt these spoilers down so I can be an intentional asshole to all my friends!

Trigger · May 1, 2013

So blackout time? Blackout time.

Thank god the ending leaked in that case though. It spread the hate and rage over a much larger period than if everyone found out at the same time.
Bioware would have been burned to the ground...

That was pretty great how people were going into denial over the ending before it even came out.

That isn't true.

I remember the Bioshock infinite ending debacle and how some did an account kamikaze and spoiled everything for everyone in the OT.

If you want to be 100% spoiled free, than the only place that is everywhere but online.

NotTheGuyYouKill · May 1, 2013

GIFs cannot express my rage at this development.

Amir0x · May 1, 2013

Oh boy, gonna be a fun few months. I'm not actually interested in the plot, but the locations you visit, since plot in games almost always blows. I find it far more awful when people spoiler location and areas you explore, and the types of enemies you might find there, but people spoil that sort of stuff all the time - including with giant photos literally showing you the exact area - and there's no moratorium on that, which sort of sucks big time

I'm with you. Like you said most people don't even consider that stuff to be a spoiler usually. Media black out is probably the best bet for this game.

I remember the first few posts of, "No! No! It's not true! It's impossible" and "Bioware would never abandon us!"
Truly tragic, many fans were placed on Digital Suicide watch, they were going to delete their accounts on social.bioware.

Mass Effect 3 was one of the greatest gaming atrocities of all time!

This gives me hope, because i have no idea how Mass Effect 3 ends...or starts.
Hopefully I can do the same thing for the Last of us.

Thanks for the heads up!

Alienous · May 1, 2013

Is this the case?

I've heard that the single-player details were minor, and even then only things we had heard. Also, I don't know if chapter names are going to be something that someone can draw more that conjecture from; the final chapters and cut scenes will more likely be subtitled 'THE LAST OF US' than 'DEAD ELLIE', or 'INFECTED JOEL' ...

anyway, continue to exercise caution. I'd like to thing that Naughty Dog hasn't let too much get leaked, but I'm not sure of their experience with demos. Resident Evil 5 had a similar leak, if I remember correctly.

Corto · May 1, 2013

So who is the Origami Killer?

KillerTravis · May 1, 2013

Didn't expect everyone to die at the end.

j/k

Didn't someone at GAF spoiled a major part of the plot of Halo 4 by creating a thread with the spoiler in the title itself? Of course he got banned and the thread got deleted quickly, but I would still be careful while browsing GAF.

Don'tBeWeird · May 1, 2013

Aw man, this is the ONE game I don't wanna get spoiled. Fuck!

Sid · May 1, 2013

Meh even if I get accidentally spoiled(though I'll try not to),the game will still be fun to play through.

Yeah good think you ninja edited that in. June can't come fast enough.

The Smoking Bun · May 1, 2013

I did not expect Ellie to be an Angel and the whole game to be Purgatory though. So like Joel washes away his sins by escorting Ellie through Hell and reaches Heaven in the end!

The whole thing is Dante's Inferno!

THIS IS A JOKE

What if I want it spoiled? Where would I go?

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?
