Last of Us [PS4]

When looked at on it's own, I can see why you'd say that, but looking at the context of what data is represented is what leads me to present cautious tones.

We are talking about a relatively high texture on leaves for a game that isn't limited to just a forest. I don't think it's a coincidence that Crysis2 left the island for the console focused game :p.

I don't expect to be able to read the spines of magazines in games targeted for xb360/ps3 with only 512mb ram because the systems have to render the rest of the game world.

Who knows, I could be wrong here and maybe Sony will really push streaming and fully utilize the BRD.

But Crysis 1 is on the consoles and can be downloaded from PSN or XBLA, go check. Of course the vegetation texture fidelity is not as high in that game as in the pic above, which of course is your point, but i also see your Crysis 2 and raise you Uncharted Drake's Fortune (and the forest levels of U2) for a game with leaves and foliage of a similar texture fidelity.

Deus Ex human revolution is another game that has relatively high res textures on pretty much everything. I mean i could read the front page of magazines, and see the remnants of tattered images left over from torn posters. I definitely expect to see textures of that particular fidelity almost everywhere on consoles as it's simply not all that high fidelity anyway.

Still it's useless speculating how high the texture quality of the entire gameworld for this game will be until we actually know more about the game world itself ;-)
 
Dear mother of god the character models look so smooth they almost look tessellated with displacement map, unless of course it's CG.
 
looks insanely good. I hope that ND focuses more on "deeper" interactivity this time, the last Uncharted took a few steps too far in the "movie" direction IMHO.
Their impressive fire + water tech would be worth alot experimenting without the story taking priority every few minutes and (partially) taking away control or kickin you to the next scene. eg. containing zombies with a wall of fire which spreads and can easily trap yourself if you are not careful.

Oh and did I mention it looks insanely good? It does look insanely good
 
When did they have the time to make this?!

Anyways, the trailer looks really cool.
Super gritty zombie/infected game I've always wanted.

The girl reminded me of Ellen Paige (which is awesome).
The main guy didn't sound like Nolan North. I hope he's in the game in some way.

We have 2 teams at Naughty Dog now and our next game on PS3 is 'The Last of Us'

They have dedicated a team for The Last of Us. I remember back when they finished Uncharted 2, they
said they wanted to do something else out from uncharted series. Santa Monica said the same thing when they finished GOW III. They said they needed to do something else so I guess ND and Santa Monica are working or new IPs. ND one is last of us, we have certainly yet to see another IP from Santa monica as well.
 
Looks great. Think it'll use the same view and controls as uncharted? Co-op play with one as the man and one as the girl, each with their own abilities/usefullness? I don't expect it to be anywhere near as action oriented as Uncharted. Semi-open world exploration?
 
The girl is definitely Ellen Page.
The trailer looks amazing but I am not sure it's real-time, the motion blur is so good it looks like accumulation buffering to me (although there is still plenty of spatial aliasing left, and even artifacts from the fake DOF, which is weird if they have really used an accumulation buffer only to get motion blur right). Do they explicitly say it is real-time?
 
I don't think real-time was explicitly mrentioned. Just in-engine on PS3. Obviously not gameplay footage, but the gameplay in Uncharted series held up quite well to the cutscenes.
 
For whatever we know it could be 10fps on ps3 and edited to look smooth. It would still fit the description

Definetely interesting stuff. We do need new games to combat the sequel stagnation.
 
Game looks awesome!

Kudos again to Naughty Dog for being among the best (if not the best) in the biz and for Sony giving them the budget and support they need to pull off amazing work like the UC series and from the looks of it, another hit in the "last of us".

Good stuff!
 
Reaction 1: Another Zombie game: I am not interested.

Reaction 2: A new game by Naughty Dog ! (remembers his own maniacal smiles, shouts, oohs, aahs while playing UC3):

" ALL MY MONEY IS BELONG TO THEM !!!!"

:D

On a serious note, looks good,but I was expecting a more grimmer ambience. But I always wanted a survival horror with UC gfx ever since the spaniards appeared in UC 1. My wish is about to come true. I am impressed by the premise and gfx, but not so much by the mood of the trailer. Didn't really have a unique tone to it.
But those guys at ND are crazy, they must have cooked up something awe inspiring to have put their trust into this idea. I will wait n watch.......with piqued interest.
