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

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
