Finally a new IP I\'m excited about. Clips should definitly be looking forward to it since it\'s a survival horror game from one of the best developers around right now (Naughty Dog)

Curious exactly how it plays, but what theyre saying is pretty promising.

"Abandoned cities reclaimed by nature. A population decimated by a modern plague. Survivors are killing each other for food, weapons; whatever they can get their hands on.

Joel, a brutal survivor, and Ellie, a brave young teenage girl who is wise beyond her years, must work together if they hope to survive their journey across the US."

Looks very promising. There will be a tonne of speculation if ND can breathe some new life in to the survival- horror genre, but I\'m wagering that they will be more than successful.

Yeah, i\'m definitely interested in this....and i know that this theme has been done over a dozen of times, but it\'ll be interesting to see naughty dog\'s take on the genre.

The uncharted series itself have touched on the survival horror theme a little in the first game when you were on that abandoned ship towards the end, but it\'ll be intersting to see how they actually craft a full fledged survival horror game. I\'m getting a somewhat "28 days later" and a "I\'am legend" type vibe with this which is a good thing.

Hopefully they\'ll be able to craft a more serious tone to this game...i hate first person shooters, but i was hoping that "dead island" was going to live up to the hype of that first slo-mo trailer that was released...of course we know now that the game itself was pretty much a watered down version of that trailer.

I think the game will be more action oriented, but i would like for it to have sense of dread as well..i mean in the uncharted games as great as they are, you never felt that nate was in any real danger and i get that it\'s the type of "indiana jones adventure extravaganza that it is", but i hope this game encompasses a sense of hopelessness at some points....i\'m still expecting something incredibly amazing from this form tho...:fro:
