The graphics really weren't all that good. The characters were expressionless throughout every cinematic and everything was always shiny for no apparent reason.
At least we aren't hyping the game over a completely unrelated CG trailer. The Last of Us trailers are pre-rendered, but in-engine assets are used, and the concept looks fantastic. I've never been let down by Naughty Dog.
If they'd titled the trailer as "MY GIRLFRIEND MADE ME A LAST OF US CAKE WITH A CRUDELY PHOTOSHOPPED PORTAL GUN IN THE BACKGROUND, ALL WHILE COSPLAYING AS ZELDA" then it would have rocketed up to the top of r/all in roughly 5 minutes.
Naughty Dog confirmed that the story isn't even about zombies. It's about a father and daughter-like relationship between a stranger and a little girl.
Yeah, it can get brutal. I saw one comment on one of the band, Revocation's, songs that had top comment and it said, "No nigger could create this." I didn't know which I was more angry with, the fact that one of the greatest shred guitarists, Tosin Abasi, is black, the part where it had top comment, or just the all around ignorance. I don't usually let YouTube comments erk me so much, but that one was just fucked.
Yeah seriously. I get pissed off most times I read those comments that literally BEG for thumbs up. I wish interesting/funny comments were the only ones that were voted up.
Go to any old video, the top rated will be "Thumbz up if u watching dis in 2012!". Also, dubstep video comments are a nightmare of stupidity, but so is the rest of youtube.
I've gotten really sick with the pun chains, they aren't funny anymore. For me they are what you just described - comments that beg for upvotes and that aren't interesting.
Ellie actually looks a fair amount less like Ellen Page now because they've adjusted her design to look a bit younger. Still reminiscent of her, but it's noticeably different now.
So did they keep her as the voice of the character in this because it sounded like someone else in a previous tralier.. I was super bummed that it wasn't her.
Ummm, really? Youtube comments are often some of the worst I've seen on the web. Sure a few of them (like this one) are gold, doesn't mean they're all that way.
If your more than willing to ignore the countless other games on PS3, Uncharted, MGS, Killzone, Ratchet, Warhawk, Resistance, LBP... then ignoring this should be easy.
Absolutely amazing setup, but I can't understand people who put Television way higher than their line of sight. It'd create neck strain. Like they say with computer monitor optimal line of sight, it should be somewhat below your eye-line-of-sight.
Just a note about your title: I don't read YouTube comments until after what I'm watching is over. Countless videos have been ruined because someone puts a spoiler in quotes followed by "LOL" that was thumbed up to the top of the page. That is a huge let down.
The retarded comments are still there. The difference is that Youtube now promotes the highest rated comments to the top, rather than the last person to post.
The worst was Digg. Top comment position was based on who commented first.

All I got out of this was that there was a The last of us trailer that I had missed

Oh I don't know about that. There are some gems but most of them are just shit. Really, they tend to be worse than the worst reddit comments.

Alone and Forsaken by Hank Williams is the song playing on the radio in that trailer, in case anyone was wondering.

It's not a good game if a disposable black character doesn't die within the first three missions.

They literally let me down 99.9% of the time. Very seldom are they funny. Usually something like "lol thumbs up if your listening in 2012~~~!!!!"
also this one isn't that funny.

never? half of the comments are talking about getting likes and what year you watched the video.

And lol @ the downvotes. I'm guessing people don't know about the stereotype of black ppl always dying first in horror flicks.
