Get a New Taste of The Last of Us in this Cinematic Trailer

Naughty Dog whets our appetites before E3... I'm hungry for more.

There used to be an embeded media player here, but it doesn't work anymore. We blame the Tumbeasts.

Joel and Ellie are headed west, driving along in a beat up pickup truck with Hank Williams, Sr. serenading them. The Last of Us was unveiled amid numerous announcements around six months ago, then went dark. Naughty Dog has been prepping to show more at E3, but today released a trailer that reveals subtle changes to the game. Ellie has seen some redesign to make her appear more like actress Ashley Johnson (as well as the probable, but unstated, intent of looking less like Ellen Page). The cinematic shows off more of the world of The Last of Us, and takes us inside some of the many trials we’ll face from the perspectives of Joel and Ellie.

Katie has always had a connection to games and was able to make Super Mario Bros. a motion game before Nintendo even thought of the Wii. She has a serious addiction; an illness if you may, of loving ridiculous games. She has been through an extensive digital rehabilitation, but we fear her addiction is surfacing again.
