The end is near for ‘Uncharted’ and ‘The Last of Us’ multiplayer on PS3

The Last of US LEGO Diorama: The Zombrick Apocalypse

A dude called Tim Schwalfenberg has created one of the coolest LEGO video game recreations ever. He took a scene from the cinematic zombie shooter The Last of Us and replicated it completely with LEGO bricks. This massive diorama is an entire city block from the game.

Be sure to click on the image below to see the whole thing – it’s pretty awesome:

It covers both indoors and out and looks fantastically creepy. It reminds me a bit of the post-apocalyptic world of Fallout 4 as well. This thing is scary and awesome at the same time. The entire scene used about 20,000 bricks and took Tim over 100 hours to complete.

10 Best PlayStation 4 Games For Christmas

overwatch

The PlayStation 4 has all kinds of award-winning, critically acclaimed games, including some amazing exclusives. If you’re looking for the perfect Christmas gift for the gamer in your life, you may want to consider some of these great games. They’re not all PS4 exclusives, so if you have an XBox One, or PC, you’ll still be able to play most of them.

Enjoy this list of the best PS4 games for Christmas, and happy shopping!

Bloodborne


This PlayStation exclusive is not only one of the best PS4 games, but it’s one of the best games to have been released in the last few years. You play as an outsider who has just arrived in a strange city, and quickly, you begin to unravel the city’s many dark secrets, mysteries and hunt its many beasts. Bloodborne is a spinoff of the Dark Souls series, known for its cruel difficulty level. Bloodborne is no easier than its predecessors, and if you don’t have the patience for harsh boss fights and even regular enemies that can kill you in one or two hits, Bloodborne isn’t for you. Bloodborne is a beautiful game though, with some of the most memorable boss fights I’ve ever encountered, and a gorgeous setting with intriguing, addictive gameplay and lore.

The Last of Us Remastered

I originally played the Last of Us on the PS3, and it was one of the greatest cinematic experiences I’ve ever had from a game. You’ll quickly fall in love with its characters, feeling their every emotion as if it was your own. Much like a movie that you can’t stop watching, The Last of Us is a game you won’t be able to stop playing. It’s not just a typical zombie horror game, it’s a game with heart. And now with a remastered edition, you’ll be able to play the game with upgraded graphics, making it all the more immersive. Note that this is also a PlayStation exclusive, meaning you won’t be able to play it on other consoles.

Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor


Shadow of Mordor received many game of the year awards, and is definitely the best game ever set in Middle-earth. If you don’t have a current gen console, don’t worry, because it was also released on PS3 and Xbox360. In Shadow of Mordor, you play as a ranger named Talion and it’s your task to take down the Black Hand of Sauron and avenge the deaths of Talion’s family. The game’s combat system is incredible and never gets boring, providing endless fun slaying orcs and Uruk-hai.

Fallout 4


The latest entry in the Fallout series, Fallout 4 is another dive into a post-apocalyptic world. This time around, your character has full voice acting, making it a first for the series. This game is full of action, adventure, and seemingly endless content, making it an experience that will last you a long time. There’s so much to explore, so much to see and do, so say goodbye to the real world for a while.

Elder Scrolls: Skyrim Special Edition


Skyrim is probably one the most successful games of the last decade, and for good reason. It’s one of the most immersive experiences in gaming, millions of players dedicating thousands upon thousands of hours to the game. Like Fallout, another Bethesda series, Elder Scrolls is full of content, making for almost endless fun. Play through the main story, being the Dragonborn, or join the Thieves Guild, Dark Brotherhood, or play through all kinds of other quests. Lose yourself in the cold, desolate land of Skyrim, now looking better than ever with its remastered graphics, and included DLC.

Rise of the Tomb Raider


The Tomb Raider series has been around for decades now, and Lara Croft is perhaps the most recognizable female protagonist in gaming. The series was rebooted a few years back and this is the second game of the new Tomb Raider series, featuring a more gritty Lara. Like its predecessor, Rise of the Tomb Raider involves survival and action elements, confronting you with many perilous moments.

Mortal Kombat XL


The Mortal Kombat series is known for its ultra violent combat, having gushing blood, snapping bones, and guts being literally ripped out of bodies. Mortal Kombat XL is even more gory, as the graphics are better than ever before. If you aren’t a fan of that, the great gameplay and options make up for it. There’s so many awesome combos and sequences, and every character has their own unique moveset. There’s also more character choices than previous entries in the series, and a great single player story campaign.

Dragon Age Inquisition


BioWare is one of my favorite companies, and just like with their Mass Effect series, Dragon Age features a myriad of interesting characters, and fantastic writing. Inquisition has numerous stand-out characters and great dialogue, with gorgeous graphics, and a great story. BioWare always deliver with their amazing RPG’s.

Overwatch


Overwatch was one of the most anticipated games of 2016, and upon release, it immediately sold tons of copies. A multiplayer shooting game, Overwatch was created by Blizzard Entertainment, makers of World of Warcraft. It’s a brilliant shooter, with whimsical, colorful, cartoonish graphics, characters with unique weapons, and several different campaign modes, creating a vibrant game.

Star Wars Battlefront


I’m a sucker for almost anything with the Star Wars title slapped on the front of it, and Star Wars Battlefront has become one of my favorite shooters. I love the choices of characters from the movies, such as Han Solo, Luke Skywalker, and Darth Vader. The maps are each different and pose their own challenges. There are several different guns and vehicles, taking time to master. Overall, I think Star Wars Battlefront has enough content so that it’s never a boring, and now that you can get a copy with the DLC for an affordable price, there should be plenty to do in this game.

I hope you found a game that you can get this Christmas! Most of these games can be found on sale, so pick up more than one!

PS4 The Last of Us Release Date: June 20

It’s no surprise that so much anticipation has built up around the launch of The Last of Us on the PS4. The game was one of the best to hit the PS3 in its long history and was one of the best games of the year last year. PS4 gamers have had tidbits of detail about the game coming to the new Sony console.

We heard before that the game was coming this summer. That is a rather vague launch window though. Several major game retailers have now tipped a new launch date for the game. Target, Best Buy, and GameFly all list the launch date for the game as June 20.

Uncoincidentally, that is just about a week after E3 wraps up this summer. The launch date hasn’t been officially confirmed, but with so many retailers showing the same date, it’s almost a sure thing.

The Last of Us Remastered PS4 Pre-Orders Tipped on Sony Online Store

Late last month we mentioned that a Sony software manager overseas had tipped that The Last of Us would be heading to the PS4 game console this summer. At the time, we had no other proof that the game was in the works for the new console. That has now changed.

lou banner 620x227magnify

Today a banner turned up on the Sony Entertainment Network online store for The Last of Us Remastered for the PS4. The banner lists a price of $59.99 and says that you can pre-order the game now. Sadly, when you click that banner it gives to a page not found error.

That means one of two things. Either the banner is broken or someone went live with the banner before it was supposed to. Considering the banner has been up since early this morning and is still there as of this writing, it’s probably just broken.

PS4 Could Get The Last of Us this Summer

If you played The Last of Us on the PS3, you know that this was one of the best games to ever come to that console. If you have a PS4 now you might be wondering when you can play that game in all its next-gen glory. During an interview, a PlayStation Eurasian Software Market Manager named Sercan Sulun said that The Last of Us is coming to the PS4.

He claimed that the game will hit the new console this summer. That is fantastic news for gamers that have a new console and want some post-apocalyptic glory. Sulun also said that the PS4 version of the game will come out of the box with the DLC Left Behind ready to play. Of course, Sony later denied the rumor, which means absolutely nothing. The cat is out of the bag.

This is almost as exciting as word that they are making a movie of this game. I hope that movie doesn’t suck. The game has a great premise, and I don’t think they will need to try to tie it to the game to be successful in theaters. I always fear a Doom type flick messing things up.
