    No one one knows. It's not even known if it's a first or third party game.

    New PS3 exclusive to be announced next week.
    The Spike TV Video Game Awards are just a week away, but the news is already starting to flow from the show. The folks behind the broadcast have been promoting the fact that a PlayStation 3 exclusive would debut there, and today, a teaser trailer for that game -- The Last of Us -- has been posted.

    The Last of Us



    Hopefully its something good.

    EDIT - Whoopsy :P delete mr admin.

    EA have just registered new c&C domain names.

    Sony did advertise a survival horror game during one of their Move video reels, nothing was ever said about it afterwards. It could very well be that, it was called "Until Dawn".

    However I hope it's not, that game was more than likely Move only, which is something that I'm highly against. Move features or the option to play with the Move are all well and good, but not Move only.

    Dear game developers: show me your game FFS.

    If only, but i don't think the world would be able to take the torrent of abuse from the PC community if Half-Life 3 was to be a PS3 exclusive! Would be funny though...

    Any idea when we'll have the trailer here?

    Last time I heard this much marketing hyperbole was when microsoft were building up to the announcement of Pac Man CE :rolleyes:

    Unless of course it's the second coming of the antichrist and Sony are releasing a sequel to the god awful Legend of Dragoon.

    Could be that all-Sony Smash Bros style fighter that was partially leaked.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,744 ✭✭✭Grumpypants


    vavle are up to something expect an announcement from them alright but no way in hell would half life be not on pc.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,732 ✭✭✭Magill


    Aye, chances of it being hl related are soooo slim. But... we can dream(Not that its PS3 exclusive tho !).

    That's what I'm assuming it is. Will be interesting to see who's developing it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,532 ✭✭✭WolfForager


    It's generally seen that this game and the sony smash brawl are two different projects.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,532 ✭✭✭WolfForager


    Website has been updated.

    Ant video has been extended (It's not just an ant anymore :o)

    Also links to these images (Images are thought to be in-game):

    http://www.lastofus.com/wallpapers/TLOU_image_2.jpg

    http://www.lastofus.com/wallpapers/TLOU_image_1.jpg

    (Well the second link isn't actually provided, but if you change the "2" in the first link to a "1".. Well there ya go!)


    Looks like some sort of zombie game tbh :/




    For some reason i can't edit the OP, is there some sort of time limit on it that i wasn't aware of?


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,509 ✭✭✭NotorietyH


    I really hope it's not a zombie game. The enthusiasm would drain so quickly from my body I wouldn't even be able to muster up a half-hearted 'meh'!

    Dunno man, if it was a serious zombie game and not a complete zombie bash like LFD or Dead Island, i might be able to go with it..

    Have Dead Island here but haven't played it yet,just arrived today. Think nearly every permutation of zombie game has been well covered at this stage. Unless it's a more focused, survival based one or something, akin to Silent Hill or the like. Maybe then. It'll take something special for me to muster up and anticipation or interest in a zombie game (or film for that matter)
