The Spike TV Video Game Awards are just a week away, but the news is already starting to flow from the show. The folks behind the broadcast have been promoting the fact that a PlayStation 3 exclusive would debut there, and today, a teaser trailer for that game -- The Last of Us -- has been posted.

It's not much to go on as it uses real footage from various riots and tragedies -- a September 11th clip jumped out at me -- but it sounds like some kind of post-apocalyptic title based on the narrator wishing for normal parts of everyday life. The website for The Last of Us features another video that's just an ant crawling around on a plant.

What do you think of the trailer? What's this game going to be about and who is making it? Let us know your theories in the comments below.

I really hope there is some color in this game, as well as some new mechanics and ideas. Ever since Fallout there has been a huge influx of post apocalyptic games, and the theme is starting to feel quite dry, much like the zombie theme.

No game footage, no care.

Ditto. At the moment, I'm assuming it to be either yet another zombie game, which Left 4 Dead, Dead Nation, and to a certain extent, Dead Island fills in quite well. Or yet another post-apocalyptic game, which the Fallout series fills in well enough.

The trend for 2012 seems to be natural disaster survival. I think both this one and I Am Alive will follow the idea. One could call it I Am Legend: The Game (and I mean the book, not the god-awful movie).

I was digging the whole reveal trailer just because I like this type of vibe.

After seeing the game trailer tonight, I am just now so, so psyched for this, especially now that I know Naughty Dog is behind it. If they were the developer was known already somehow I missed it until tonight. Just pretty much jumped up to one of my most anticipated games.

When you watch the video on gametrailers.com it actually points on how everything is in-game footage. I am really loving the visual style of it as well.

Not much else to say other than cannot wait.

Nope, tonight was the first time it was known that they were the developer. There was a big guessing game on who the developer was going to be.

It probably is Ellen Page that's doing the voice and/or motion capture. This seems like a pretty AAA game.

:p

I've just started The Walking Dead season 2, so this game is right up my alley just now.

Bummer they had to go with the zombie like genre though. That gets old. But day one still for me.

I'm really hoping that they bring back a similar atmosphere akin to that of the original Resident Evils' where you actually did feel fear. I think if anyone can make this work and feel complete Naughty Dog are the guys, their story telling is amazing, as is their cinematics, graphically if it uses the UC3 engine it's going to be a looker.

Agreed. And just to confirm, everything shown on the trailer was using the in-game engine, so not sure if it is the UC3 engine or not, but it is already proven to be a looker. (Y)

    • iPhone 18 Pro drop-test video and photos leak on the dark web following a data breach

      By Hamid Ganji · Posted

      iPhone 18 Pro drop-test video and photos leak on the dark web following a data breach by Hamid Ganji iPhone 17 Pro - Image via Apple Apple is seemingly facing one of the biggest data breaches in its history, and just a few months before the official debut of the iPhone 18 Pro series, photos, a drop-test video, a supplier list, and key phone components have reportedly been leaked by hackers. Last week, we reported that Tata Electronics, an Apple supplier and iPhone producer in India, was hit by a data breach. As a result, it was reported that more than 200,000 trade secrets and confidential documents belonging to Apple and Tesla were stolen by the ransomware group World Leaks. According to Reuters, the group has now leaked supplier lists, component details, and photos of the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro models on the dark web. One of the materials leaked by the hackers is a drop-test video of the iPhone 18 Pro, which is due to launch this September. The phone is shown in a gray color and has the same familiar design we saw on last year's iPhone 17 Pro series. The device also appears to be quite durable, though it seems to be thicker than last year's model. One possible explanation is that Apple may be using a larger battery in the iPhone 18 Pro series. Moreover, Reuters says it has seen at least six documents mapping many components in the iPhone 18 Pro models to their respective suppliers, including details on chips on the main circuit board and on battery and camera components. The documents reportedly detail hundreds of parts that will be used in the iPhone 18 Pro models. A person familiar with the matter told the outlet that Apple classifies this data as sensitive and “is concerned about the documents being shared on the dark web as they relate to unreleased models.” Apple is reportedly investigating the issue but has yet to issue an official statement.
    • Microsoft Edge gets tons of security features, including AI model that can see your screen

      By monterxz · Posted

      You do you, I've just said that it first appeared in "home" version before it will be available in "work" one. I use Edge only because it still supports MV2 uBO extension even on Android - I'll switch when they stop.
    • Can't access the forum on mobile

      I imagine that was a review or something? My reviews mostly contain a lot of images and galleries, but these are all webp too, but yeah it all adds up on the page load. Would help if you were more helpful with your critique instead of bitching and moaning like a Karen 😂 Because then we might be able to fix it for you.
    • Dbrand thought they could get away with this Steam Machine case, Valve disagreed

      By PsYcHoKiLLa · Posted

      If Valve refused to let them make the case, I wonder if they've already partnered with someone else to do it? The fact that they didn't seek permission/licence before diving straight in is incredible though
