Yea I can see that, this actually has weight in the given situations rather than seeming just to be someones sick fantasy like the Lara Croft stuff was talked about by some of the developers.

An honest mistake.

>>177155
Going into the article I was thinking "that's why you use 555 for everything", but apparently they did. I would never have thought that 1-800-555 would work, either.

>>177155
So that is what is leading to mankind extinction.

Now here to take the piss out of everything.

It sounds like Ellie is a less useful (and less legal) Elizabeth.

>>177261
Not everyone can have the powers of a fucking god

Powers that ultimately boil down to more supplies, specifically placed turrets, and being a key.

>>177261
Strong as she is Elizabeth needs Booker for combat as while she can hold her own against most she doesn't actively butcher over 200 infected and cannibalistic raiders like Ellie does.

I'd put Ellie at roughly a hundred time more useful than Elizabeth.

>TOKYO, July 9, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Sony Computer Entertainment Inc. (SCEI) today announced that the global sales of The Last of Us(TM) exceeded 3.4 million units(*1) as of July 3rd. This remarkable sales figure was achieved in less than 3 weeks since the global launch on June 14(th) .

>"These sales figures are a testament to the blockbuster quality of The Last of Us," said Shuhei Yoshida, President of Sony Computer Entertainment Worldwide Studios.

Bravo Sony.

They're both cool in different ways, IMO just leave it at that.

>>177578
Wow between this and the crushing failure of ZombieU there is probably some reevaluating going on.

>>177581
Reevaluating of what?

>>177606
A western studio delivers the biggest success the PS3 has ever had and hammers home the ever growing importance of exclusives and places renewed value on story elements.

Meanwhile the WiiU hinges all their success on ZombieU along with a few other games which while all exclusives have little to no story elements and gets hit with such failure a large produce losses enough confidence to change an exclusive to a multiplatformer.

There is a lot to be digested in the significance of the contrast between the two, or at least that is what I was thinking, maybe I'm just rambling.

The lack of story element can be compared to a degree, but the fact of the matter is that ZU wasn't a very good game in all comparison to tLoU. Most importantly of which is game play.

Holy shit

>>177769
I don't know, Tiki. That pic looks a little shopped to to me.

>>177778
Yeah, those glasses were definitely shooped in.

>>177778
Swing and a miss.

Pedophile love story, entire game is them playing firetruck, she even almost gets raped on screen at one point.

>>177797
She's pretty clearly a daughter figure he feels so protective over due to the loss of his own daughter, you sick palmfucker

>>177798
But anon, didn't you know that everything ever is always about sex?

>>177797
>playing firetruck

okay that gets a chuckle and is a funny way of picturing the following.

>>177797
Hey, Joel's a stand up guy.
Ellie on the other hand...
Sure she is fine now but give it 1 to 3 years and then
BAM!
Puberty!
Gods help Joel when that happens.

T4 stop it

We gotta go with the other method of possible immunity transmission. But now..I cannot unsee the final evolution...the horror.

>>177817
>final evolution
Joking aside, this term's always bothered me.

>>177818
what you have against pokemon?

>>177822
Other than the fact that that's not how evolution works at all?

>>177822
evolution never stops and the pokemon version isn't really accurate to IRL

>>177823
>>177824
It's how Pokemon evolution works!

>>177814
Everyone gets so offended when people suggest a sexual interest, yet no one stops to realize that the girl won't stay a kid forever...

She'll grow up into a hot chick living with a lonely guy, things will happen. Hell things would probably happen even if he was her genetic dad.

Has no one read the lord of the flies, people don't really act rationally in an isolated survival situation.

With how shit p4c has been lately, I give it 10 posts before this turns into an incest acceptance thread.

>>177832
The fuck are you on about now? It's the same as it's always been.

>>177825
And doesly that how alot of people now know the word to mean.
That the evolution of language for ya.
Ton of new words and meanings all the time.
>>177831
Yeah, its a bad scenario all around.
Hope that she read a book on "growing up" at that school of hers or Joel is in for an even harder time.
Aunt Flow is an even bigger bitch in the post apocalyptic wasteland.
Just saying~
But there is hope!

Thank you swedish tv for talking about this in it history programing so I could google years later.
What?
Hygiene is importent!

>>177831
Exact they aren't living isolated, they are living in Tommy's town, safe from Guards and the quarantine zones, the only thing they have to fear are roving packs and bandits.

Plus he very clearly thinks of her as his daughter.

>>177840
Yes im sure the monsters and cannibals will help them uphold morality. The fact is that shes not his daughter so theres nothing wrong with pursuing her, and the only reason there isnt a romance is because shes too young.

>>177842
>the only reason there isnt a romance is because shes too young
What if they're just not interested in each other? What if it turns out that she's not into dudes? Could you really not think of any reason besides "she's too young" for them to not get together? Good lord. Not every story ends in a dicking.

>>177843
>Not every story ends in a dicking.
True, but there's a reason that "ends in sex" is a meme.

>Ellie steals Bill's comic books

0/10 would not waifu

>>177843
It was bad enough in Bunny Drop and Oreimo when they threw away all that character development so we could get yet another millionth "heroine bangs the MC" ending. I honestly have yet to see a story where the main male and female characters aren't into each other romantically and clearly don't end up together by the end, and not because they're actually related.

>>177847
You should never mention Oreimo and Bunny Drop in the same sentence.

As for male/female leads not being linked, there's always Hill of Swords

>>177848
>You should never mention Oreimo and Bunny Drop in the same sentence
Why not? They're both hella garbage.

>>177851
Bunny Drop is great.

One of the best anime original series out there.

>>177847

Pacific Rim kinda?

>>177852
Considering the context, I have a feeling they're solely referring to the manga.

>>177854
It's a joke. He's pretending the manga doesn't exist because it's turrible.

>>177843
>>177847
Have you heard of pukachevs gun? If not, look it up.

Now consider this: pukachevs penis

>>177855
Ooooh...the "original" part should have clued me in.
