The Last of Us is a genre-defining experience that blends survival and action elements to tell a character driven story about a population decimated by a modern plague. Abandoned cities are being reclaimed by nature and the remaining survivors are killing each other for food, weapons and whatever they can get their hands on. Joel, a ruthless survivor, and Ellie, a brave teenage girl who is wise beyond her years, must work together to survive their journey across what remains of the United States.


I'm very excited. When I saw the ND logo pop up, giddy like a school girl.

He sounded like Nolan North too. Zombieland crossed with I Am Legend it looks like.

It's actually Troy Baker(who is quickly becoming as widespread as Nolan North) and some girl called Ashley Johnson.
So you Ellen Page haters need not worry. icon_smile.gif

ok so obviously these things they're fighting aren't zombies.

But uh, any fucking clue what this is?

it almost looks like some kind of fungus has infected its head. It also seems to have gotten rid of most of the skull too.

There were teasers about bullet ants and some sort of fungus that infects the ants. I think perhaps this is some sort of fictional mutation of the fungus that affects humans? Looks a lot like a zombie to me though.

Apparently it's fungus from the easter eggs shown and the concept behind it.

I just call them Pinecone Warriors.

Here's a clip they apparently showed along with the trailer:


Here's something from a BBC doco which uses the same footage and explains the fungus:


It's actually a very intriguing premise.

Cordyceps, that's it. I guess humans got too numerous and therefore became likely to succumb to its nemesis Cordyceps strain.

I'm hoping the fungus infection actually serves some kind of purpose like cordyceps does and isn't just "MAKES PEOPLE CRAZY RARR". Having a more 'scientific' backing for why the fungus causes people to go loco would be really cool.

Otherwise I'm down, but I'm intrigued to see how this plays and differentiates itself from Uncharted. Seems like there's a media day in the US on their Monday, so we should get new press material then.

I got the 'I Am Legend' vibe from it too, definitely has my interest. I thought that girl looked familiar.
