Ya, I would have liked some gameplay Sad

The Last of Us made us say "whoa" we thought it was an awesome reveal. When we heard Naughty Dog was doing this we were like "double Whoa all the way across the sky(well at least I was)."

Were just saying our opinions, I thought we had a right to that.

No one said you didn't. Likewise I was also sharing my opinion. I can't have a discussion about that? Hm? Am I not allowed to discuss the difference in our opinions? Is that not allowed? Wink

I'm well aware that many here found The Last of Us one of the most amazing reveals this year and I'm not saying you're not allowed to. What I'm saying is that I didn't find it quite as taking as the other games I noted because for one, it's zombies, and two, until more info is released about the game, I'm not getting super excited over it.

You've also noted that you were "double Whoaa" because Naughty Dog is developing it and isn't that only based on the games they made in the past? How's that different from playing on nostalgia? You're still basing your opinion on past experience. Like I said, to me a reveal is more than just "new."

Don't get me wrong, I think the reveal for The Last of Us was great too, just not my favourite. Smile

In the end it was just an opinion. Sometimes I get tired of seeing the same thing every year, and my hope for PlayStation go up because there adding this game, which has potential.

Its not the "new" that got me excited about the reveal it was "potential." The possibilities that were going in my head came out and saw this reveal as the best and most surprising reveal. If i don't look at a game from past experience then how am I suppose to compare, am I suppose to look at games with no thought whatsoever...thats weird.

Am I wrong...can't say but in the end its just an opinion it isn't meant to be right...its just something we say and hope were right. So right now I'm hoping that this is the best reveal...if it isn't big whoop doesn't change my life.

Edit:The "Zombies" in the Last of Us are not zombies they are infected people who are living on pure instinct.

Lol, I'm not saying you're wrong for thinking that. Far from it, I see the potential in it too.

I'd say Command & Conquer Generals 2, Far Cry 3, and Rainbow Six: Patriots (finally one that is not Vegas) did it for me.

I agree. Far Cry 3 really wasn't expected by anyone (at least not anyone that I knew).

Have to agree with you on the MGR-R (if that's what you meant). The video they showed on VGA was aaaaannnoooooying. If I see those words re-arranged on my screen one more time I'm going to throw my remote at the TV.

Haha, I thought the Revengeance trailer was bad ass for a number of reasons. PG are developing it and the action was so OTT. Loved it for what it was. As for the Revengeance moniker, it's not the first time KP have played on words, you see it all the time in their trailers and let's not forget about Subsistence.

I strongly disagree with people saying the MGR-R trailer was annoying.. I thought it was EXTREMELY badass. Perhaps you guys are just jealous of Raiden's awesome? XP jk jk.. but seriously. That one gets my vote.
