haha you're crazy if you think this game is going to get a 7/10 by "plenty" of reviewers. This is a newly minted "AAA" game experience, and so by default reviewers only use the 8.5-10.0 scale.

The game will metacritic average at 91.

I honestly think the average will sit in the high 90's.

Don't know why, but my gut is screaming 97.

 

[squidyj]

But what do you say once GTA comes out? Or maybe Beyond? You need to invent new words soon

that GTA looks pretty great and beyond is a great concept and hopefully a step in the right writing direction for David Cage but this is still going to be game of the gen?

 

[Majmun]

Noticed it as well.

Crazy.

 

[xxracerxx]

Care to stop posting images?

 

[Monocle]

"Gaming’s Citizen Kane moment"? Please. Game journalists, stop embarrassing yourselves and the industry with overblown comparisons.

Let the circlejerk commence!

Stop, you're going to ruin my penis's Seven Samurai moment.

 

[jacksepticeye]

I know this game will be good but I am not looking forward to the flood of over the top hyperbole.

 

[Jarmel]

A Citizen Kane moment huh?

 

[Vire]

Stunning

 

[LightofRohan]

Heh, nice -- but I wont take his word for it. I hope this game reviews well though...

But, I need to stop looking at this thread.

 

[Sanctuary]

Many of those images don't look like they are in realtime, or that they are actually shots from the dev (PC) version.

 

[sweetvar26]

June 5th. I'm not sure the time though.

Alright, thanks.

It's Tricky. I'm just trolling him. He is pretty stoked about GTA and Beyond and has previously said Tomb Raider is going to be his game of the generation no matter what. That's why I'm asking him that

 

[Rogue_Ledr]

I hope this will be their highest rated game yet!

 

[Jigolo]

why do i keep thinking this game will be better than UC2?

 

[Tagg9]

why do i keep thinking this game will be better than UC2?

 

[jacksepticeye]

why do i keep thinking this game will be better than UC2?

It will be, I know it will. The whole concept of it, personally, is already better

 

[Drakeon]

Oh god, I'm going to get caught up in the hype and buy this on day one aren't I? Even though I know Amazon will have it for $45 in a month or two.

 

[Phonomezer]

Does The Last of Us have campaign co-op?

 

[DrBo42]

I find it hard to believe that it'd top Uncharted 2.

Lol. Did you play the same boss fight I did?

 

[rokero]

I'm sure the citizen kane comparison will be topped by whatever Gregg Miller writes in his review that guy is the king of hyperbole

 

[DrBo42]

[startyourengine]

The only problem with The Last of Us is that it's almost too good.

lol

Simply amazing.

 

[BennBeckman]

my most anticipated game this year, which is really saying something

 

[Mikey Jr.]

What in the holy hell is that thing?

 

[revolverjgw]

It's like Andrei Tarkovsky and Bela Tarr had a baby, and the baby surpassed its parents and invented a new artistic language

 

[qa_engineer]

What in the holy hell is that thing?

Those things are fucking frightening. This game is going to be epic.

 

[Deku Tree]

But how does TLoU compare to RE4?

 

[antitrop]

The game will metacritic average at 91.

I hope it deserves it.

[Barack Lesnar]

What is the Listen Mode exactly? thanks

 

[MrCookiepants]

This game is really something else.

 

[SolidSnakex]

It lets you see outlines of enemies through walls. But you can completely disable it in the option menu.

 

[Alienous]

But how does TLoU compare to RE4?

Almost seems like a spiritual successor, from what I've seen. Very vaguely, but you can see the inspiration.

The Last of Us is going to remind the Resident Evil team of what could have been.

 

[The Technomancer]

The Dark Knight of video games.

Very enjoyable and well put together but ultimately far overrated by people who built themselves into a frenzy believing that it would be one of the greatest films ever made?

Yeah probably

 

[OwlyKnees]

Off topic: Who is in your avatar? I feel that I've seen her before, but can't recall. Bugging me!

 

[Cheech]

Yeah probably

I just want it to not be a half assed bullet sponge platformer. Uncharted 1 was kind of neat, but I didn't care for the rest of the series.

As there is little else to play, I am hoping to read through the hyperbole and have this game actually be much more of a game and less of a linear shit show. The new Tomb Raider game is far, far better than any of the Uncharteds, so here's to hoping ND steps up their game.

 

[Drago]

I'm sure the citizen kane comparison will be topped by whatever Gregg Miller writes in his review that guy is the king of hyperbole

Is he reviewing it? If so I very much look forward to his review. If it's anything like his UC3 review it will be gloriously hyperbolic.

wow.. just wow... (@_@). Love the one which Ellie holding a riffle. Can't wait to play the game!

 

[Boogalogist]

The option to disable the listen mode needs to be highlighted to reviewers!

 

[3rdamention]

Citizen Kane was a great movie, we studied it extensively in film class, so...........

 

[pharmboy044]

I think it's Colin who's reviewing the game.

Awesome

 

[Sola Scriptura]

Has it been revealed as to whether you are able to stealth the majority of the game and avoid most encounters?

 

[xenist]

The Last Of Us is the "Au hasard Balthazar" of gaming.
