While you mentioned individual websites, N4G's data comes from all over web.
This statement is wrong and you very conveniently highlighted the N4G explanation but missed the real line 'The temperature of an article does not directly reflect the number hits it gets' haha understand it a little more. I am a memeber there for quite some time now. Know the ins and outs how to increase the temperature there too haha

I have been inducted to Hearthstone BETA now so I am going for the closure in this thread. To make things appropriate I have come up with the name of the post

THE FINAL PAIN (ITS NOT GOING TO BE PRETTY)

You know PS1 had great games, PS2 had great games, PS3 had its fair share of exclusives from which Uncharted 2, Last of Us and finally the great Journey (haha) made it through. GOD OF WAR, METAL GEAR, FINAL FANTASY and others either got swept under the rug or got multiplatform. Cerebraltiger worked tirelessy to help all of you SONY guys feel great about all these games. This thread is also an effort to give all you guys a closure.

But you are not getting the idea. 2013 was 20 days ago, all GOTYs have been given away. By this thread calculation 8 credible websites gave it to LAST OF US and rest of the credible 8 gave it to other games (see CTs revised thread). You guys took your half glass full and felt happy. I am happy for you, but guys NOBODY cares for LAST OF US anymore not even Cerebrealtiger.

We all know LAST OF US got free game modes and a brand new DLC is coming, but if Cerebraltiger actually thought highly of the game , why he chose KILLZONE SHADOWFALL over that? I mean he get rid of that old console faster then we get rid of dead mouse in our room. Its not like CT is alone in this, have you guys seen December hardware sales

Xbox One: 908K [Best selling next-gen console]
Xbox 360: 643K (-54.1%) [Best selling current-gen console]


You see XBOX 360 is doing better then PS3. How the fuck that happened?? Why is Last of US not moving more consoles then 360? WHat is 360 offering new? The anser is Titanfall.

CT has done his job to give you threads like these so you can all feel happy. But you are not getting the gist, its time to part ways with the old box and be next gen like CT, ditch old gena dn go populate KILLZONE SHADOW FALL and THE KNACK threads. CT told me he is going to enjoy new MGS on high res and refered to my 360 as inadequate. It is inadequate and I am also routing for the PC version.

PS3 is finished, there are only two games coming one is persona and other is DS2 which only truecoolguy is going to play though I advise him to go and play it on 60FPS.

XOXO PAINTRAIN

Even if it was a fact, should it bother you?

But I understand your point. It irks you 'cos you personally experienced TLOU and don't consider it worth all the praise it's getting. Right? I can relate to that. I mean that's my problem with Halo or the original Crysis.
Shyber sums it up perfectly...I also feel same way about the last of us and most fps games...

Seriously faraany, take a week off from PG or something. It's seriously unhealthy how much you are invested into this site and all the insignificant things that happen in it. I'm sure even the other PC guys are cringing at your posts now.

Ooh~ I'll be holding on to this.

Oh my, my..this is worst than I thought...

You being a member doesn't meant s**t, I am a member there aswell. So please talk sense here.
You are proving my point exactly and still not getting it. Their meter judges a report on quality instead of quantity (at least that's their explanation of it).
And TLoU is on top of it . ( Haha?)

HHAAAHAHAHAAHHAHHAAHHHAHAHAHA(lmao)(lmao)(lmao)......


Oh yes this is CT's hardwork that he is trying to make us feel better about PS3.
Of course he is the only one who made/published/marketed TLoU, Journey, Uncharted series, GOW series, KZ, etc..etc..etc
I didnt knew @CerebralTiger that your real name is Sony

Why are you bringing CT into this? Your obsession with CT is remarkable. Us becharey ke kandhey per apni bandook chalna.

By this thread calculation 8 credible websites gave it to LAST OF US and rest of the credible 8 gave it to other games (see CTs revised thread). You guys took your half glass full and felt happy. I am happy for you, but guys NOBODY cares for LAST OF US anymore not even Cerebrealtiger.
Before trying to use CT against me....You should listen to the season2 episode2 PG podcast (when it releases very soon), where he discusses his GOTY. (lmao)

And please dont try force your opinion on the opinion of this thread that 8 credible websites gave TLoU and other's gave to different games...
We can choose whoever one thinks is credible


And before you try and bring sales figures in 1) PS4 has sold tons more consoles than Xbox one..Breaking Records along the way... What you stated is one region for one month.

2) (Again please listen to PG podcast S02EP02, when it comes out) Where we all agree about Titanfall and how Xbox one has a stronger lineup currently. We aren't
against Xbox or PC, nor is this thread about that.
This thread was about GOTY.



P.S When re-using Gifs I posted..remember imitation is the best form of ........?

The reason and logic that I found of Xbox One selling better is:
-PS4 stocks are empty i.e. All units sold so fast they couldn't replenish their stock fast.
-Microsoft is fudging the numbers again, just like how MS will pay $3 to every 1000 views to video bloggers who'll promote Xbox One.

The funny thing is that faraany gets off track faster than Shareef brothers going back on their promises. First he came in, raged in PC superiority like no other (I talk to a few PC guys off PG and even they cringe at his, desprado and counter6's posts citing these people are what's wrong with the PC community), secondly faraany would have been okay if GTAV would've won the GoTY, why? Because it is the game he has played, because he owns a 360 (don't know about if he owns a PS3 or has played TLoU) and just like a few people who 'borrowed' a 360 to play only GTAV and not borrowing a PS3 instead to play the real GoTY.

Thirdly he chimes in calling every console owner a man baby, stating that there is no other way to hold a controller, I'm not aware if KB/M combo can be held by feet and be used in precision...states that he is being targeted for personal attacks whilst himself comes in does the same. Hypocrisy? Hypocrisy.

Then he states and places all the blame on CT, also says that he is a member on N4G and says the heat system is flawed, well to anyone whose 'preferred' title or platform is not considered the world's greatest by people in a said year automatically becomes the subject of hate from the said individual. Then comes the sales an what not whilst skipping on the previous months reports and what not and saying that people sold their PS3 faster and did not hold the GoTY title with them? Sometimes I think there is something wrong with his water supply...

[MENTION=218]CerebralTiger[/MENTION] I know you don't need to but you can post your TLoU limited edition pictures in order to put the claims of an individual to rest. There are a hundred different reasons a person may sell their stuff.

I don't know what i can say anymore...

After reading all the FAVORED post about TLoU, i finally decided to buy a ps3 super slim and play the game and see for myself why "Some" people have created such an hype for it. :gg:
Anyways bought a spanking ps3 super slim with TLou and i inserted the disc in it then......WTF! the starting story is like i'm watching "The Walking Dead" all over again, i thought to myself "it is just the start, let's see what the game of the year beholds further"....
played for a bit, i started to like it a little, i had to hide from clickers, runners come and literally "run over you" so moving on after 1-2 hours of play i was kinda doing the same thing all over again, hiding, running, shooting and to make matter's worse the story clicks in such a way that you can definitely get an idea that both Jole and Ellie will survive till the end and that is EXACTLY what the story will go like.
I don't get it, instead of penetrating the gamer "who is actually playing" this Jole makes all the decision's on his own, the game revolts around the same things, if i'm stuck some-where and i can't find my way in less than A MINUTE, Ellie or a Hint will appear to help me out....Damn! Naughty dog's really want us to finish this game fast.
And what the hell is this "hearing" power that Jole can do, what is the fun in that! when you can actually SEE where the F*** the enemy is standing and to further exploit it you can even increase the hearing levels, Wow! Jole must be cleaning his ears on each level. Instead of actually seeing the out-line of the person naughty dog's should had just involved the hearing of footsteps and environment noise only so gamer's wouldn't actually see where the enemy is standing instead guess where the enemy is, in that case it would had been horror.
The game becomes so much linear during the halfway, that I literally got bored and started watching "Wolf of Wall Street".
UC2 was better than this, why? because at-least the super action could hold the gamer to play it till the end "helicopters, tanks, blowing all to smithereens, and you have to doge/run from them all "timing".

to sum it up:
I would personally rate this game at 8/10 :lame, cause i didn't felt that horror, story was just Fine like i was watching a drama series or something and knew exactly what the outcome will be, game-play got boring gradually and got worse in the end, the stupid hints, only graphics was good but who gives a shit about graphics anyway when the game main core things are average (game-play and story).

^ Not to be a prick or anything and appreciate the effort to atleast play the game but reading all that and seeing the talk about prediction, then maybe watching movies might not be fun for you as well because the hero and heroine both survive 99.8% of the time.

Not to advocate for TLoU but there is an option to switch off hints, increase difficulty and remove the visual representation of hearing etc

It's not about how higher the rating is. If you felt like you didn't have a good experience with it, by all means rate it lower because the way you just described the game, it should've gotten no higher than 5/10 from you...

P.S I completely hate Indian movies, Hollywood movies share the same fate as well.

but i would rate it 7/10 which is me being very generous becoz its story overwhelmed me in a good way

Perhaps he rated it higher in order to stop people (read PS3 fans) from jumping at his throat?

He rated it personally despite writing all that. That, contradicts. It's not like people are going to jump out of his screen and slit his throat, if that would've been possible, we wouldn't have seen the likes of desprado, faranny and counter6. (Read the truth)

You know, this mini-review of yours would've been better off in the game's own official thread. Or maybe you could've made a lttp thread for it.

http://www.pakgamers.com/forums/f11/last-us-|ot|-joel-ellie-168513/

Contrary to what some here may believe, this is not a TLoU appreciation thread. It's a compilation of what the media picks as its game of the year, and that game happens to be TLoU.

Or maybe you should LEARN to accept the fact that not all who played TLOU to completion liked it and worshipped it the way most Sony folks here do :rolleyes:

If you can't accept that, then you're no better than faraany here :umad:

While you folks waste time fighting over petty things, I spend my time doing what I like best, i.e, playing games (sm1)
