This game was awesome, finished it on normal and now playing on hard (with I had played on hard in the first place). The storyline, gameplay and graphics are perfect. It really does make every other game look bad. Some parts also scared the crap out of me (ie hotel basement at 2am).

So what's everyone's thoughts on a sequel? (obviously without giving the ending away)

1. F#$k yeah, they have to do another

2. Nahhh, it was all wrapped up.

The story was wrapped up, but the world has a lot left in it to write more stories about.

Played it on hard, as I do all games, because I'm not one to go back and play a game again.

Fantastic game, to date it's my fav PS3 game ever. (I've since bought the Mass Effect Trilogy as a mate said it was the goods after you got past number 1)

I'd also played the uncharted series so I knew what to expect from Naughty Dog and this surpassed my expectations.

I was quite happy with the ending (no spoilers here), and I could see a sequel and would happily play it. It would also make an exceptional stand alone movie.

I can't say more than that without giving "some" things away and given how hard I had to work to avoid spoilers so the experience wasn't ruined, I won't risk doing that to anyone else.

I should add, I would recommend paying it on hard as it ups the ante in terms of the stealth and survival instinct needed which this game thrives on.

I can't remember the exact stats but at the end of the game I had something like 80% accuracy and an absolute heap of head shots, and I'm from a PC gaming background and struggle with shooting on a console, so that just goes to show how careful you will be when every shot counts, I can easily see better players having over 90% accuracy and mjority of kills being head shots or melee/strangle deaths.

Father daughter yes, plus it was one of the things they talked about doing after the trip I think, going to the Zoo.

Joel says so is it everything you thought it would be or something to that effect.

I think the story grabbed me for a few reasons.

I have a slight fear of situations like that, outbreak, societal break down and how I'd survive, protect my family etc. Plus I'm a new father (4mths) so the daughter card grabbed me.

Intentional casting really, as the saying daddies girl and mummies boy exist for a reason in terms of the bonds parents have across the genders.

One of the concepts of the game was that life still goes on (unless there's a nuclear holocaust or similar) even after humans are no longer a dominant species.

The developers did a lot of research in the area of, "what if people ceased to exist?" and found that the amount of maintenance we do on a daily basis holds back most of the wilderness from coming back.

A good way to look at it is to imagine not mowing your lawn or cleaning out those spider webs around the house for 20 years.

GROUNDED is the making-of feature where they delve a bit more into the research undertaken. If you're a fan of the game, I highly recommend to watch it.

Ah yeah I remember something like that.

I see...

Well yeah, since you're a father now, your mind set with take into account of these things.

Just shows how powerful this games is to trigger that emotion, of what you thought at the time, when it took place in the game.

such a great game.. mind you its mostly enjoyable playing on hard or survivor ( ng+) probs the best buy (game wise) in a long long time!

having probably the most indepth feeling that draws you to the charactors some thing i find we dont see much in games anymore, not to mention the lack of amunation laying around makes it for a very thrilling game were i found myself sneaking pass alot of fights :D

    • GTSBoy on your suggestion on another thread I had a look at those injectors and ended up getting them because of the quality.  Got the expensive ones.  
    • Hey guys been looking everywhere to try and find the correct gtr hood latch support part number but only found the first half and when I search with that number it sends me to an r34. The first part I found was 62515. If anyone could help me with the rest then I’d really appreciate it. Or if there’s some alternative hood latch support that would work even better cause I can’t find any for sale. (Searched on upgarage, partsouq,buyee,rhdjapan) 
    • If you've only done the upper control arms on the rear, AND you have changed their length (by more than about 1mm) to set the camber you want, then you will definitely need/want to install traction arms also. Adjusting the camber arms on their own WILL introduce bump steer and make the car unpleasant to drive. Most owners have no idea that their car could behave infinitely better than what they put up with. I'm not entirely sure what the Stageas need, but I am thinking that unless you have massive front spring rates and pretty soft rear springs, you have waaaay too much rear bar. Oversteer city, in my estimation. Combined with possible excessive bump steer from maladjusted arms, that could be a recipe for nastiness. ATR43SS2 is not a highflow. It is an outright replacement turbo. It's a little bit bigger than the largest highflow profile that Tao does. Probably a solid 300rwkW turbo where the bigger highflows will be about 30-40rwkW less. Nevertheless, we're only talking about ~300 rwkW, which is well within the abilities of the stock ECu to run with a Nistune on board. I would do so without hesitation - and I will be doing so when I get my finger out and actually get the injectors and AFM installed. But, if you would prefer to drop a whole lot more money on the ECU side, then I suspect you're looking at Haltech. The Haltech fanbois here will all spout on about all the available engine protection you can have, that you can't have with the Nistune option. And they're right. But it doesn't really come for free either. You will spend more money on extra sensors and the like, plus the work to install them. If the engine was built and therefore represented a big investment to protect, then I'd say definitely do it. If you view the current (and forever into the future) shortage of replacement engines as something to prompt similar protection, then also, do it. If you see a destroyed RB25 as an opportunity to put in a Mercedes or other V12 (like I kinda do)... then your perception of the risk/reward might differ. These are good injectors. You can also get a "better" set of the same with more flow matching, for more $$. 1000cc is where you will want to be. You will need an R35 AFM and adapter tube if you want to stay with Nistuned stock ECU. Otherwise, if going Haltech, you can ignore. As for intercooler. Just about anything will do. You're only talking about ~300rwkW. Just put a big core in there. Be aware that return flows do add significant pressure drop and will cost power and will make the turbo work harder to achieve the same goals. If you can manage a proper crossflow, do it. I'm keeping my very good return flow because I'm only expecting to be in the ~250rwkW range, and will live with whatever outcome I get.
    • I have a heap that i have collected if you want some authentic ones still. Pm me if your interested!
