The Last of Us Multiplayer Review


With The Last of Us out for more than a month now we had to chance to experience the amazing story that is set in this game.
But with this breathtaking experience comes also a surprising fun and new multiplayer experience.
At first i would expect another Uncharted like multiplayer but that is totally wrong.
The multiplayer takes its roots on the single player experience.
Featuring the same stealth like combat.

The basic of the multiplayer are set on 4vs4 team based matches.
That are played on maps similar to areas found in the single player.
Again you will have limited supply’s and only a few bullets in your clip so fighting another player can be an intense experience.
But could also be over in seconds.
Since your health goose down in only a few hits.
So cover is the basic understanding of fighting back.
Unlike Uncharted where gun running was the way to go.

I like the way i experience every match.
While the basic are the same.
The way we all played changed even during the match.
Playing as a team felt really important even with 3 strangers in my team.
And the fun i experienced from playing was surprisingly addicting since it was so intense to play and sneak up on another player and go for the kill.

I am happy that i never felt that any item or gun is overpowered and ruined my experience.
Even with the Molotov being a one hit killer if you are in the blast radius.

MOLOTOV!!!! :P
The loadouts are easy to set-up and don't take me 15 minutes to set-up.
Which i do have to do in Modern Warfare.
You only have a few points to spend to added guns and perks to your loadout making the choices for your loadout really important for how you play.

The game looks gorgeous even in the multiplayer.
Although there is not much time to spend looking at the map as a tourist.
When you do get a chance, you notice how much love Naughty Dog spend on the terrain.

The Character models are also looking really nice and varied. 
But i felt there was not enough customization.
A helmet and a mask makes is not enough.
But that probably me being one of those idiots that wants to customize the character to much :P

Small advice play this multiplayer with a headset.
And then you will notice every sound even footsteps.
When i listening through my Sony Pulse Elite i can hear my teammates left to me without seeing them and thats just awesome.

There was only one thing i missed for the multiplayer and thats a survival mode.
Make it a separate multiplayer below Factions.
Give a few players a map and a few resources to find. 
And survive against waves of infected.
Who knows, maybe as future DLC?

  Final Conclusions and Thoughts  

Positive
  • New Multiplayer Experience
  • Looks Gorgeous.
  • Not too much choices for the loadout set-up. 
  • Balanced gameplay.
Negative
  • More option to customize the player skin then just a helmet and a mask.
  • more modes than just Team Death match.

Playstation TV Review

Also known as PSVita TV Review The Playstation TV is the way to play your favorite PSVita and Playstation classic's on the tv. Or use it as an add-on device for the PS4 to continue playing in different room if you're banished from the other one. While this sound great, sadly the PSTV is not perfect. There are enough games that have yet to get PSTV support. And if you're new to the PSVita environment don't expect to play Gravity Rush or Tearaway on the PSTV. The PSTV only support games for the PSVita that don't use or barely use the touch options of the PSVita. There are allot of things that the PSTV could support but isn't getting for now. One of those options is to play WipEout 2048 on the PSTV. While I understand that WipEout 2048 has motion controls. They don't need be there to play WipEout 2048 on the PSTV. Games like Olli Olli don't even have proper menu controls and require the use of the R3 of the Dualshock 3 and 4 or the use of t...

Thoughts of Persona 4 Arena

P4U Arrange Soundtrack EU Cover Even when i am one of the sooo many europeans that had to wait for this game to release 9 month later than the US i am still happy that it did came here. Now i could be mad and not buy the game as a response to the late release but that won't do me any good and won't do the creators and publisher any good as well. My way to show to them that they should release their games faster is to show how much i want there games. But enough about that. What are my thoughts of the game? Well there are really positive although there are still a few things i think that should have been done different. The Training mode is probably one of the best things in this game. Since it is a great way for new players to this genre or more familiar to understand the basic's of this fighter. Also this is great way to get the feel of the controls. But one thing about the controls could be startling to players is that the controls are described as like ...

No more Heroes, No more Puzzles either, Road Map & Trophy Guide

Road Map Okay I know there is not much to do wrong in this game or to miss but a few things I am going to share might help you. - First don't use any items until stage 8, stage 8.8 is going to be a pain in the ass. - Play the tutorial it might help you understand the game more. - Fusion your monsters with the right hero and the lowest level of that hero. - Get the paid pack (9 € ) or buy the bottomless pack through the game (5 € ), waiting to play a match will be a pain in the ass and time wasting since this game will require lots of time. First lets get the easy trophies out of the way. right from the menu is the secret code that your would normally only get when you beat stage 8.8. Press the Right and Left trigger repeatedly until the trophy pops. - The Cool Army Code Play a stage and created a new monster earn 2 trophies. - Combo: first blood - It's Alive If you know some one that also owns a vita, get the Ad-Hoc trophy out of the way two. ...
