Something is off with the boxart. I like it, and it's better than most, but there's something off with it...

Multiplayer, that's a surprise!
Oh man, I hope the melee combat is fucking awesome in MP.
Exactly
I get the feeling she's stumbling upon Joel being dead in this gif.
Speculation up above having to do with the gif and story, I have a feeling I might be right.

The title is on the left so there is a bunch of open space on the right.

Am I reading that right? You get all the bonuses for no extra charge? :O
Box art looks good imo. Also lol at everyone freaking out over mutiplayer when it was already confirmed.

Not sure if serious
They said no campaign co-op while also confirming multiplayer in the game's unveil Game Informer issue.

Good to have MP confirmed
I just hope this game doesn't suffer from a lack of polish and balance like Uncharted 3 did.

Eh... the final one is a variation of that second artwork anyway.
Ahh, cheers.

I hope not. I wanted to be something completely different. I think they will somehow incorporate The Last of Us theme in MP.

the actual box art is better than both. The first is just boring and the second one is basically the same but worse.
Same.

Don't agree at all. Those would have been awful. Th just look like a guy and a girls faces and a guy and a girl standing in front of a building. Gives no context at all. The box art shows the ruined world

Great boxart, I'm surprised is so brown considering how lush the game's infested forestry is, though. It does set a mood, however.
Multiplayer was confirmed a long time ago. Hope they make it very survival-y, and tactical, like SOCOM:
-No health regen, unless by pickups or creating your own health with scattered items (it would take time o
-No respawn (round based)
-Reliant on stealth/sound
-Very few bullets, scavenge map for weapons and ammo (like Halo, but more survival-y)
-Flesh out that buddy system they introduced in UC3's horribly watered down MP
Maybe even have some nifty gameplay mechanics like everyone carries a small pack of health they can use once per round (requiring time to pull out and apply) or transfer to teammates. Would be even better if you could target limbs, resulting in crippling, which could be healed via pickups and teamwork, via that buddy system idea they half-assed in UC3.
MP games these days focus too much on throwing perks at you and senselessly running and gunning. Here's a chance to bring back slow, methodical gameplay that brings with it its own intensity. Search and Destroy in COD4 and SOCOM's multiplayer has always been intense and exciting, as well as tactical and heart pounding. I truly hope they go this route
UC2 MP was great, let's hope they redeem themselves with an amazing Multiplayer for TLoU
What do you guys expect/want it to be like?

Too bad Naughty Dog's games take a long time to show up on PSN. I'm going to have to pre-order the disc on Amazon.
I don't think MP is going to be a horde mode. To me the melee booster, bonus EXP, and in-game currency tells me they're going for another UC3 type MP. Hopefullly they tone down the perks crap this time.

Great box art, I need to go into a 5 month coma.
I think ND games are the only games I anticipate within the same ball park as an MGS title (minus Revengence) and GT.

Naughty Gods doesnt compromise the quality of SP when they add MP to their games man.
