The Last of Us: New Story Details and Art

Todd Schlickbernd — Fri, 10 Feb 2012 01:30:06 +0000

Naughty Dog recently revealed they wanted to do more Jak & Daxter but instead endeavored to make a new IP, and that IP is The Last of Us. Or, the last of them? The last of … some people? I’m still alive, for the record.

Naughty Dog’s creative director Neil Druckmann and director on the actual game Bruce Straley went in depth about The Last of Us‘ two main characters and the world they’ll inhabit (Earth, for the record). APOCALYPSE TIME! Yay, more humans dying in massive amounts at once! Interestingly enough, The Last of Us takes the death-by-science path which results in-in a rather predictable turn of events- zombies. This time, the world’s been nearly cleansed by a lethal fungus epidemic leaving the remnants of humanity under harshly ruled military-controlled quarantine zones. World ended? Time to get tough!

The two main characters are the magic here. 40-ish year old Joel and 14-year-old Ellie have a very strange relationship in that Joel was contracted to smuggle her out of her quarantine zone only to get her trapped with him in the fungus-infested, zombie-infested badlands of the world. Luckily, Joel’s background as a black-market badass will come into play here. After whatever disaster occurred and killed all the other peoples of the world, Joel ended up sad and stuff, so now he just doesn’t give a fuck.

However! He’s not about to leave this 14-year-old girl in the middle of zombie-death-town, so he endeavors to whisk her (and presumably himself) off to a secret land of milk and honey, otherwise known as a safe zone where the zombies, and the military, have no reach.

Man I’m tired of apocalypse stuff. I’m also tired of every protagonist having short brown hair and a big ass forehead. Who has time to cut their hair after the apocalypse? They don’t shave, but they cut their hair? Joel was like “Man I used to love video games before the apocalypse. In honor of that, I’ll look exactly like Nathan Drake! Yeah. Fresh.” Anyways, Naughty Dog’s amazing so this will probably be awesome, look forward to it.

Uncharted 4: The Last of Us – Starring Jak and Daxter

Michael Futter — Mon, 06 Feb 2012 23:00:08 +0000

What do Naughty Dog’s Crash Bandicoot, Jak and Daxter and Uncharted franchises have in common? Naughty Dog stepped away, despite fans clamoring for more.

I hear you. We don’t know that Naughty Dog is moving on from the Uncharted series. It’s true, we don’t. However, given that they are starting to pass the reigns over to Sony Bend (Uncharted: Golden Abyss), it’s not too much of a stretch to speculate that the studio is getting ready to move on.

More credence was given during a recent interview with Game Informer. Naughty Dog co-President Evan Wells detailed that a new Jak and Daxter was under strong consideration, but ultimately passed up, in favor of The Last of Us, their upcoming not-zombie survival game. The team that would have handled a Jak and Daxter reboot? The crack team of commandos in charge of the Uncharted series.

“Even if we felt like we’re going to give the fans another Jak and Daxter, we felt we weren’t going to give them the game that they wanted. We would end up limiting the direction that the company had this passion for while simultaneously not creating the game that fans wanted. We just realised we were going to just do everybody a disservice. So at that point, the conversations started to move in a new direction.”

“I guess there’s a possibility the Uncharted team could move on to Jak and Daxter. It’s still up in the air, but I wouldn’t think that’s going to happen because I think we’d run into all of the same problems with that team that we did with this team.”

Rather than revisit old IPs and possibly disappoint the fans, Naughty Dog is taking their next big step with The Last of Us.

So, there you have it, folks. If you want to play more Jak and Daxter, you’ll have to play old Jak and Daxter when the HD collection (compiling the first three games in the series) arrives on the Playstation 3 tomorrow.

Naughty Dog Says “The Last of Us” is More Than Just Another Zombie Game

Rick Givens — Sat, 04 Feb 2012 20:00:22 +0000

A couple of days ago, Game Informer revealed the cover for their March issue featuring The Last of Us.

The Uncharted series, first teased us with The Last of Us at the November 2011 Spike Video Game Awards. The game will be a single player, third person, horror survival game. The title is set in a post-apocalyptic Earth across several U.S. cities. Survivors Joel and 14-year-old Ellie must kill and scavenge in order to survive in a world that has been decimated by a killer strain of fungus. Standing in their way are the other survivors and monsters that were once human, but have sense succumbed to the infection, now transformed into horrific zombie-like creatures.

More zombies? Yeap. Some (I) would say the zombie genre is overdone and needs to finally die. We’ve been up to our asses in the undead for the past several years in everything from video games, to TV and even Christmas gifts. Naughty Dog is promising something different, though, and the survival aspect of the game might make an interesting departure from wasting wave after wave of undead. The graphics, so far, look top notch; time will tell, but the hype is already building.

There is a little bit of science behind the game, inspired in part by the BBC documentary Planet Earth, which talked about the Cordyceps fungus. A particularly nasty strain infects insects, notably ants, and replaces the host tissue with its own. End result: the host ends up growing something that looks like a baseball bat out of its head, goes crazy, climbs up to a high spot, and explodes, spreading spores all over the place. Nasty as hell, but don’t worry, the fungus is not harmful to humans.

While that is pretty much all of the background we know for now, it’s possible the game will tie in with the Uncharted series somehow. An Easter Egg (the game kind, not the big ass rabbit kind) was spotted in Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception in the form of a newspaper with a headline related to The Last of Us story. Of course, actual tie-ins are not confirmed at this point, and it will likely have little bearing on the gameplay experience in either game, but it is neat, nonetheless.

Updated information will be available on Naughty Dog’s The Last of Us page. In the meantime, we’ve all of the available videos and compiled them for you here. I also dug up the BBC clip showing the fungus in action. Enjoy your lunch.

New The Last of Us Video is Full of Behind the Scenes Action

Garrett Hartman — Wed, 01 Feb 2012 19:30:11 +0000

Sony today released a video which shows some of the behind the scenes work that went into creating the trailer for Naughty-Dog’s The Last of Us

In the video you get to see actors Troy Baker and Ashley Johnson in motion capture outfits play the roles of the two survivors and main characters of The Last of Us. Check it out below.

The Jak and Daxter Collection Set to Release Early February

Justin Carter — Wed, 25 Jan 2012 00:30:11 +0000

Since the release of the God of War Collection back in 2009, Sony has been releasing their old PS2 titles on the PS3. Last year gave us the release of the Team Ico Collection and the Sly Collection. Next up on Sony’s list? The Jak and Dexter Collection.

Naughty Dog’s action platformer franchise has been MIA for about quite some time now. Fans have been clamoring for a sequel, but with Naughty Dog working on The Last of Us, it looks like we’ll have to wait a little while longer. In the meantime, the original Jak trilogy–Jak & Daxter: The Precursor Legacy, Jak II, and Jak 3–is coming to the PS3, remastered in HD with Trophy support.

You can pick up the Jak & Daxter Collection for $39.99 on February 7.

New Uncharted 3 DLC Incoming – Skins and Multiplayer Maps

Justin Carter — Tue, 17 Jan 2012 22:30:04 +0000

Today, Naugty Dog revealed four new multiplayer maps for Uncharted 3. The four maps are Cave, Fort, Lost City, and Sanctuary from Uncharted 2, but with technical changes and new particle and dynamic lighting effects. If you’re a member of the Fortune Hunters’ Club, you’ll snag the four maps for free. Non-members will currently have to wait to find out how much the maps will cost.

Naughty Dog also mentioned new DLC for the future. The Rogues 1 and Rogues 2 packs will let you play as major thugs and minor characters from Uncharted 3′s single player campaign. The Donut 1 Pack will make characters giant size. You know, because they’ve been cramming donuts instead of treasure hunting. Exactly when the maps and skins will be available is unknown, but the DLC is promised to not stop there. As a tease, Naughty Dog put up this picture:

When it Comes to The Last of Us, “Tone” Must Matter

Joseph Christ — Mon, 02 Jan 2012 20:00:08 +0000

When news via trailer was released of a new adventure epic by the creators of both Uncharted (Naughty Dog) and the designer of Enslaved (Mark Richard Davies), it’s understandable that many found it difficult to contain their excitement. Indeed, there is much to be jubilant about. Both games have been celebrated (though one more critically than the other) for their ability to cloak an engrossing narrative within the wrappings of a technically and atheistically beautiful world. Both have managed to not only create characters who would flawlessly act as hero’s of a grand tale, but also exhibit some humanistic qualities which kept their respective stories from veering too far off into the fantastical.

But in as much as these qualities have done well for said titles, they may also be qualities which may be unwarranted for a tale much more grounded in reality. The Last of Us, as a tale of survival in a dying world, needs to break free of the tired tropes we have come to expect in post-apocalyptic narratives. It is bad enough that the one nemesis we’ve seen so far is a zombie-like creature, (surely something that’s a grand sin at this point) but to have a hero, and even more disappointing, a hero-child, fighting them, is to perhaps suck every last drop of suspense and danger from what could otherwise be one of the most emotionally engaging video games of our time.

The moment of absolute disappointment comes at the beginning of the video. The child is in the lower floors of an abandoned building and hears a scuffle upstairs. She realizes that it’s the male character fighting desperately with an opponent, and at that moment lets out a sigh of such predominant impassivity that you would think she was reacting to a pop-up ad. Of course, she runs to his location just in time to see him lay the haymaker, but with only slightly less passion than the void she possessed before. The action moves on, but the suspense does not, and the impression that this is a truly dangerous world bleeds out like that dead man on the floor.

Of course this joining of character types does not come from thin air. The dynamic of Enslaved was similar, with a powerful hero and a less powerful, (why of course!) yet still ably powerful woman by his side. But that was a fantastical tale in a fantastical world that’s somehow also our own, but completely abstracted of our own as well. Though the dynamic worked, and worked well at the time, it was already starting to show its age. Now this dynamic of the apocalyptic hero couldn’t be more expected and couldn’t be more tired. I think it’s high time we shunned them all. What is the good of a dangerous world without danger? What is the good of a protectorate in no need of protection?

No. Give me real people struggling through real endeavors. Real weakness in need of support. Make the world seem an unforgiving place even if, through the smoke-and-mirror of game design, I am still bound to succeed if I try hard enough. I no longer want to feel like the hero born through a perfect virgin birth. Allow me to feel like a hero born of struggle and baptized in blood.

Cormac McCarthy’s The Road, later adapted to film by John Hillcoat, is a fantastic example of this. A humanistic character devoid of the functions granted to the prodigious, yet still able to accomplish feats that many of us would find hard to even imagine. It is about a man becoming a lowly hero in a world where hero’s are no longer permitted to be born. The world within The Road is a place without mercy, within which one man carves a way. It’s certainly not Mad Max, and it is this reality which carries a weight that makes other End of the World narratives seem like Disney-appropriated apocalypse-porn.

This apocalyptic stark-reality approach wouldn’t feel out of place either. An overgrown world at the end of civilization was explored fully in Alan Weisman’s The World Without Us which examined, in intricate detail, just how nature would slowly reclaim the land we had once inhabited. From the slow breakdown of frail materials back into soil, to the flooding of the New York City subway system (after the failure of the myriad of pumps which keep the Manhattan Bay from doing just that) it’s certainly a work which can be seen as a contemporary scientific overview, if not source material, for much of the world which The Last of Us is based upon.

A world such as this, populated by a hero instead of man, almost seems an abomination of this vision, and I hope not for the direction we are headed for. Naughty Dog currently has the opportunity, and the foundation, to do something very different with the genre. And we have the opportunity to finally get a game which treats the end of humanity with the modicum of seriousness it deserves. I would hope that these two worlds can finally converge in The Last of Us.

More Details About “The Last of Us”

Justin Carter — Tue, 13 Dec 2011 22:22:38 +0000

This past weekend, Naughty Dog unveiled their new game, The Last of Us. The trailer was undeniably gorgeous and intriguing, and questions have been asked about the game since. Naughty Dog’s now posted some new information on the game.

The Last of Us starts after a modern plague has ravaged most of the country. Those that survive kill each other for food, weapons, anything they can to last one more day.
The two leads are Joel and Ellie. Joel is voiced by Troy Baker of Saints Row: The Third and Bioshock Infinite fame, while Ellie is not voiced by Ellen Page, but by Ashley Johnson. They’re trying to make their way across the country, presumably in hopes of finding a permanent safe haven.
According to creative director Neil Druckmann, the game’s been in development for two years already. One team has been working on this, while another team was hard at work on Uncharted 3 and other stuff.
The UK page for the game suggests that this is a strictly one-player affair, as it says “no network play.” Naughty Dog may change their minds sometime down the road, but if this is anything like Enslaved, I doubt player one will have fun carrying player two on their back the whole game. Also suggested from the page is that the game will be rated “Mature”, which is a first for Naughty Dog.

The Last of Us runs from danger sometime in 2012 exclusively for the PS3. Does this news have you excited yet?

Catherine Cai — Sun, 11 Dec 2011 01:30:05 +0000

It’s confirmed, folks. Naughty Dog is developing the PS3-exclusive, Dead Island, starring Ellen Page.

The game looks great, but I’m going to have to kick back and sigh. Do we need another post-apocalyptic, zombie-esque game? Probably not. But hey, at least this time around I know this game will be done right. Ya know, Naughty Dog.

Sony has released the last of its behind-the-scenes videos for Uncharted 3: Drakes Deception. The video features Naughty Dog Cinematic Lead Taylor Kurosaki, Nolan North (voice of Nathan Drake) and Emily Rose (voice of Elena Fisher) as they discuss the historical inspirations to U3′s story including Sir Francis Drake, Sir Lawrence of Arabia and the legend of the ‘Atlantis of the sands’.

RipTen Review: Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception (PS3)

Garrett Hartman — Tue, 01 Nov 2011 16:00:57 +0000

For anyone with a PlayStation 3, Uncharted 3 has been one of the most anticipated games of the year and for good reason. Uncharted and more specifically Uncharted 2: Among Thieves flat out rocked. Uncharted 2 especially delivered the perfect blend of varied and engaging gameplay mixed with an engrossing story and top notch presentation. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to consider U2 a masterpiece as it won near unanimous GOTY awards back in 2009. Obviously, Drake’s Deception has large shoes to fill and herein lies the problem many people will undoubtedly encounter – how do you rate a sequel to a game many considered perfect? Furthermore, what if Uncharted 3 falls short of expectations?

Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception tackles a few of the major questions fans of the series have had for years, namely who is Nathan Drake and how did he meet his friend and mentor, Victor Sullivan? Drake has always been a whimsical and charming adventurer in the vain of his apparent inspiration, Indiana Jones and in a style very similar to Indiana Jones and The Last Crusade, we finally get to learn a bit about the origins of this iconic gaming character. While the game does not go into great detail, it does get quite ambitious and stands as a testament to the story’s depth provided to us by Naughty Dog creative director Amy Hennig.

You're In Over Your Head, Kid.

The story is also a bit darker than that of its predecessors. Instead of Drake’s usual motivation of getting the priceless relic for profit or simply keeping it out of the hands of the villains, Drake’s motives are deliberately never very clear. This lack of clarity is addressed by a few of the main characters who openly question his motives on whether the costs of this latest and greatest adventure are outweighed by the benefits. The quest itself is grand in scale and involves following the footsteps of both Sir Francis Drake and T.E. Lawrence. Indiana Jones would be proud and George Lucas should take note.

The added complexity of the story extends to the characters as well. While we’ve met many of these characters before, they often fall into two categories: the happy sometimes reluctant adventurers, or the diabolical villain. Drake’s Deception adds needed depth to these archetypes. What is behind Drake’s and Sully’s relationship? Why does Nathan and Elena’s relationship never seem to have that happy ending? The way these characters relate to each other is far more realistic than before and it definitely adds to the player’s emotional attachment.

Not So Fast, Nate.

The antagonists are equally more compelling. In Uncharted 3 we are introduced to Katherine Marlowe. Katherine is sophisticated, cold, calculating and definitely has a past with our heroes. She is never portrayed as particularly evil and is never given the obligatory villain hate scene. She has such meaningful dialog with Drake and Sully that at times makes you wonder about thier motivations. Her sidekick Talbot never reaches her level of complexity but is a suitably sophisticated professional killer who comes across as both menacing yet slightly feminine. A character you can easily see giving James Bond a difficult time.

As great as characters and story are, they do not make or break a video game. Let’s face it, no one played Uncharted 2 for the characterizations. It was mostly celebrated for it’s killer gameplay and creating action sequences more grand and pulse pounding than anything you’d expect to see in a summer blockbuster. The train mission alone provided such a sense of shock and awe that even friends of mine who don’t play video games enjoyed just watching me play it. Hell, it was playing that mission at a friend’s house that inspired me to get a PS3 (or want one for Christmas – Thanks Marni!) at a time when I was a self confessed Xbot. Ask me, I know you want to. Does Uncharted 3 have any more of these “holy shit” missions? My answer is an emphatic “HELL YEAH”!

Get Offa My Boat

There is one mission which starts with Nathan Drake’s interrogation in the hull of a ship. As Drake you escape from your interrogators only to realize you were on a derelict ship and in the middle of a ginormous ship graveyard crawling with pirates. You can climb, swim, take cover and commandeer turrets as you fight waves upon waves of enemies. While I’m sure there’s a way to sneak through with silent kills and discretion, it would probably involve some deep planning – besides it’s more fun to slug it out anyway.

This battle is not the highlight of the sequence either, after working your way through this graveyard you eventually get to a converted cruise ship. As you fight on this ship it is rocked by a serious storm that throws both enemies and cover across the deck with each crashing wave. Eventually you get to the point where you relive a few of the events taken straight out of The Poseidon Adventure (the 1972 classic, I’ve never seen the newer one) and these scenes are simply breathtaking and easily stand among the most memorable in video game history.

New Video Game Releases: Oct. 31 – Nov. 5 (Uncharted 3 Edition)

Garrett Hartman — Sun, 30 Oct 2011 17:17:09 +0000

Halloween falls upon this release week but you would hardly know by its offerings, unless your favored idea of a costume includes a treasure seeking adventurer, a British super spy, a medieval fantasy warrior, or a redneck hunter.

The most high profile release of this week is undoubtedly Naughty Dog‘s Uncharted 3. The follow up to 2009′s labor of love and near unanimous GoTY winner, U3 has large shoes to fill. Does it live up to the hype? You’ll have to read my review on Tuesday. Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception is a PS3 exclusive.

GoldenEye was the first game to truly define the console first person shooter. Winner of GoTY honors in 1997 and often regarded as one of the top video games of all times, so it was never a question over whether there would be a sequel. There were, but they never quite recaptured the magic of the original. So what to do? Remake the original! Goldeneye 007: Reloaded was a big hit on the Wii a year ago and will more than likely succeed on PS3 and Xbox 360.

Mordor, orcs, the Ring of Power and high adventure. The Lord of the Rings has delivered timeless entertainment since the mid 1950′s. The latest video game release The Lord of the Rings: War in the North promises to live up to the grand tradition when it releases for the 360, PS3 and PC this week.

They say good things come in threes, but three releases in the same week might be a bit much. Not if you ask Activision as they release three new Cabela’s hunting games! With the release of Cabela’s Adventure Camp, Cabela’s Survival: Shadows of Katmai, and Cabela’s Big Game Hunter: Hunting Party hunting season on your home consoles has officially begun.

Pick of the Week: Why beat around the bush – Uncharted 3 is incredible. Mix the perfect blend of action/adventure, platforming, shooting and an engrossing story with top notch visuals and what do you get? Another masterpiece. Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception
