As someone who has yet to play the game - I see no correlation between what I saw in the TV spot and what could be considered 'spoilers'. Risky, but I really wanted to see some more footage of this game.

Looking forward to experiencing this in just over 2 weeks! I nearly bought a PS3 after I got my PS4 to play this.

 

[unempLLOYD]

Enough with the spoilerific trailers Naughty Sony! You're supposed to lure people in with trailers, not scare them away.

Show some damn gameplay!

 

[Faith]

If anyone ever wanted a good example of crushed blacks (as opposed to simply a screenshot with areas in darkness), this is as prominent as I've seen it in the wild. I doubt the game looks like that.

Also my first thought.

I hope that's not actual ingame footage how it will look on my TV.

 

[Evolved1]

The only thing that jumps out at me in the gif comparison are crushed blacks.

 

[Cyborg]

And it starts......

Hey I'm team ND all the way brother. TLoU GOAT and all that jazz.

Was just sayin'.

 

[hawk2025]

I would love for someone to point out (WITH spoiler tags) what exactly this trailer spoils.

Complete nonsense. No one who hasn't played it has any idea of the context of anything there.

[Krappadizzle]

Can a remaster get a GOTY? Has it ever happened?

With this and GTAV coming out this year, it may. Doubtful though.

 

[fuzzyreactor]

tv spot for a remaster, really sony? is the ps4 lineup that bad this year?

 

[LookAtMeGo]

I hope the trade in value for my PS3 version is still decent.

Really fuzzyreactor? Is it really that hard to believe?

are you saying they shouldn't advertise their games?

Damn son!
Please go play something instead of bitching around here!

 

[tapedeck]

Im a PS3 owner that has never played TLOU..yeah I may have to get this whenever I decide to bite on PS4.

 

[fuzzyreactor]

Damn son!

i would but no gamez

 

[Man]

The TV trailer was pretty clean.
The E3 trailer has some spoiler moments but you still don't see the bigger picture (I would recommend to stay away from it as it spoils certain key events).

 

[Disguises]

Oh come on. It's a remaster from one of the highest reviewed game of all time and highly regarded by most of the community. Lots of us didn't own a PS3 and some who did did not play The Last of Us.

Oh yeah, I skipped that part in the conference. Good to know that I should still stay away, thanks. I know very little about the game (for once...usually I absorb every piece of media I can find for a game). It's going to be good

 

[D1renegade]

I'm baffled by their reluctance to show any gameplay from this.. I just don't get it.

 

[Lord Error]

Cross posting from other thread

PS4 has build in decompression hardware so they could probably compress it more to fit on disk then expand when installed since it no longer has to play from disk.

That's not how that works with videos or media in general, sadly :\
I'm worried about the same thing to be honest. That cutscenes will look like overcompressed macroblocked garbage, but at 1080p60!!1

 

[Evolved1]

''Bro'' I wasn't commenting your post

"Great"

 

[KnockOneOff]

I'm honestly glad my PS3 made so much noise which I couldn't finish this game

Now I get to enjoy it in its full form on ps4

 

[uncleniccius]

They don't want to show how bad it is.



Why else hide?

People keep being reminded, but TLoU MP wasn't revealed until super close to launch and people worried.. it was great.

They have nothing to prove, just be patient - they made, in my opinion the best game of the generation, so why should we doubt them?

 

[Broadbandito]

yes yes yes yes just give it to me now

 

[TetraGenesis]

And it starts......

YEAH, THAT FOOTAGE SURE DID LOOK 30FPS, DIDN'T IT, CYBORG?

 

[hawk2025]

YEAH, THAT FOOTAGE SURE DID LOOK 30FPS, DIDN'T IT, CYBORG?

Cyborg redeemed, TV spot was not 60fps.

 

[R3TRODYCE]

Kind of weak but I'm still hyped.

 

[Omnistalgic]

Wow...some users are really thick-headed.

I believe Yoshida specifically stated that TLOU was made with people who didn't own a PS3 in mind but jumped into PS4. Therefore why should so much of the remastered title be shown when story is of the utmost importance in the title and there's a PS3 version of the exact same game out already -_-

It's a DVD release (PS3 version) getting the Blu-ray treatment (PS4 version) for fans and new owners of PS4. Why are we still looking for some media blowout like its a new game. Why do I still see some users asking if 60fps is really confirmed? Strange, very strange sometimes gaf. 2 weeks...

 

[TetraGenesis]

Cyborg redeemed, TV spot was not 60fps.

He always has the last laugh.

 

[ProjectBerkley]

Why is Sony/ND being so coy about showing media for this?

I think we should just assume the worst.

 

[tookhster]

I hate to be "that" guy but using pre-rendered cutscenes over and over again on trailers for a game that many people have already played seems like bad promoting to me. The game comes out this month, right? I don't get the reasoning behind that. It's okay to show spoilerish cutscenes to draw in people who haven't played the game instead of showing just a little bit of how the game plays and how it's different from the original?

 

[Hoodbury]

Alrighty then, thanks.

I've never played the game and I didn't feel spoiled watching it. I had the sound off though so maybe they say something spoilery?

 

[Live Free or Die]

Pre-ordered. Did Sony or ND say if people who bought TLOU on PS3 will get the remastered version free or get it at a discounted price?

[TimeEffect]

They made no mention of 1080p and 60 FPS, or the multiplayer content -_-

 

[brickarts295]

Nope, so pay up $50.

 

[Souldestroyer Reborn]

Pre-rendered cutscenes. Not thread-worthy in the slightest. Just put it in main thread.

But the PS4 version gameplay is supposidly equal to the pre rendered cutscenes sooooo......?

 

[3rdamention]

Pre-rendered cutscenes. Not thread-worthy in the slightest. Just put it in main thread.

Thread Whining? Thread Whining, nice...








Can't wait for the game, I trust the Naughty Gods do I could care less for gameplay......I know what to expect from this game. DAY 1, AGAIN....

It is "okay", but certainly not preferable in my opinion. If I was a newcomer I wouldn't want to be spoiled but see gameplay.

 

[GribbleGrunger]

This scene used 'in game' models folks. This is what the characters will look like when playing the game (but not quite so compressed). Look at the detail on Ellie, particularly her hand. The grass behind them seems to be 'plusher' too, perhaps denser/longer?

 

[Shredderi]

Exactly, and the models were already really good during gameplay on ps3. We've all seen those close up gifs of ellie in game. The cutscene models' details will get to shine in 1080p.

 

[Bundy]

tv spot for a remaster, really sony? is the ps4 lineup that bad this year?

For a 1 year old game, with record breaking 200+ GOTY awards, which was THE game of last gen, and for some people the best game ever? Yes, more spots/trailers, etc. please!

 

[PanicFreak]

Opinions? I find The Last of Us more impressive, visually, than either of those games. It's pretty damn stunning.

Stun on man. Stun on.

 

[GribbleGrunger]

Exactly, and the models were already really good during gameplay on ps3. We've all seen those close up gifs of ellie in game. The cutscene models' details will get to shine in 1080p.

Some cutscenes used higher resolution characters and some used in game characters. The scene above used in game characters and they look like the cutscene characters. This game is going to be heavenly. Can't wait to see the screenshots people post here in release.

 

[Pimpwerx]

Finally, new media. I likely. I think I'll place my preorder this week. PEACE.

 

[GribbleGrunger]

I don't want to see ANY in game footage at all. Just post a dozen 1080p screenshots ND.

Can't someone gif this pic so that it flicks (slowish) from the PS3 version to this?

 

[uncleniccius]

Thought: with Sony having a media event today isn't this near certainly being shown off?

 

[DigitalDevilSummoner]

why is the one on the right so dark?

They used the lighting that was removed from Dark Souls 2.

Spoiler

yeah I need to let go...

 

[Darknight]

Pre-ordered. Did Sony or ND say if people who bought TLOU on PS3 will get the remastered version free or get it at a discounted price?

Since when did this a "thing"? You should keep your expectations, realistic son.

"Hey I bought a 2013 vehicle, do I get the 2014 model free?"

Oh this scene is realtime? Interesting, someone should definitely screencap this ps3 segment.

 

[SuperSonic1305]

What spoilers? There isn't anything major in there.
