This game was awesome, finished it on normal and now playing on hard (with I had played on hard in the first place). The storyline, gameplay and graphics are perfect. It really does make every other game look bad. Some parts also scared the crap out of me (ie hotel basement at 2am).

So what's everyone's thoughts on a sequel? (obviously without giving the ending away)

1. F#$k yeah, they have to do another

2. Nahhh, it was all wrapped up.

The story was wrapped up, but the world has a lot left in it to write more stories about.

Played it on hard, as I do all games, because I'm not one to go back and play a game again.

Fantastic game, to date it's my fav PS3 game ever. (I've since bought the Mass Effect Trilogy as a mate said it was the goods after you got past number 1)

I'd also played the uncharted series so I knew what to expect from Naughty Dog and this surpassed my expectations.

I was quite happy with the ending (no spoilers here), and I could see a sequel and would happily play it. It would also make an exceptional stand alone movie.

I can't say more than that without giving "some" things away and given how hard I had to work to avoid spoilers so the experience wasn't ruined, I won't risk doing that to anyone else.

I should add, I would recommend paying it on hard as it ups the ante in terms of the stealth and survival instinct needed which this game thrives on.

I can't remember the exact stats but at the end of the game I had something like 80% accuracy and an absolute heap of head shots, and I'm from a PC gaming background and struggle with shooting on a console, so that just goes to show how careful you will be when every shot counts, I can easily see better players having over 90% accuracy and mjority of kills being head shots or melee/strangle deaths.

Father daughter yes, plus it was one of the things they talked about doing after the trip I think, going to the Zoo.

Joel says so is it everything you thought it would be or something to that effect.

I think the story grabbed me for a few reasons.

I have a slight fear of situations like that, outbreak, societal break down and how I'd survive, protect my family etc. Plus I'm a new father (4mths) so the daughter card grabbed me.

Intentional casting really, as the saying daddies girl and mummies boy exist for a reason in terms of the bonds parents have across the genders.

One of the concepts of the game was that life still goes on (unless there's a nuclear holocaust or similar) even after humans are no longer a dominant species.

The developers did a lot of research in the area of, "what if people ceased to exist?" and found that the amount of maintenance we do on a daily basis holds back most of the wilderness from coming back.

A good way to look at it is to imagine not mowing your lawn or cleaning out those spider webs around the house for 20 years.

GROUNDED is the making-of feature where they delve a bit more into the research undertaken. If you're a fan of the game, I highly recommend to watch it.

Ah yeah I remember something like that.

I see...

Well yeah, since you're a father now, your mind set with take into account of these things.

Just shows how powerful this games is to trigger that emotion, of what you thought at the time, when it took place in the game.

such a great game.. mind you its mostly enjoyable playing on hard or survivor ( ng+) probs the best buy (game wise) in a long long time!

having probably the most indepth feeling that draws you to the charactors some thing i find we dont see much in games anymore, not to mention the lack of amunation laying around makes it for a very thrilling game were i found myself sneaking pass alot of fights :D

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
