    Im interested in last of us. Tell me more about it

    It is a post-apocalyptic game by Naughty Dog(Uncharted series) set in the U.S. that follows two survivors named Joel and Ellie.

    Plot
    The story is set two decades after a cordyceps-type fungus has killed millions, with nature gradually retaking the abandoned cities and towns. The survivors are hemmed inside quarantine zones, completely under the heel of the United States military, with order and screening for any Infected being viciously maintained under martial law. Joel, a hardened black-marketeer within one of the quarantine zones, goes through an event which makes him promise an old friend that he will get a young, fourteen year old girl named Ellie, away from the harsh regime to a resistance group known as the Fireflies. They begin a journey through the U.S., avoiding the Infected, humanoid creatures whose sole aim has become spreading the fungal infection. Joel and Ellie also have to avoid scavengers that survive outside the quarantine zones who see Joel and Ellie as their latest prey. Adding to their problems, the military is determined to find Ellie and bring her back under their power.

    Concept
    The concept for The Last of Us arose after watching a segment of the BBC nature documentary Planet Earth, which documented a cordyceps fungus-infected ant, where the fungus takes over its brain and produces growths from its head; the idea that the fungus could infect humans became the initial idea for the game.

    While the fungus epidemic is the main backdrop of the game, The Last of Us is not a "zombie game", but "a love story about a father-daughter-like relationship", influenced in part by the interactions between Nathan Drake and Victor Sullivan, his mentor and father-like figure, in the studio's Uncharted series. Joel is a survivor and anti-hero, while Ellie is a 14-year-old girl with no experience of the world pre-apocalypse. The composer for the game will be two-time Oscar winner Gustavo Santaolalla. The team wanted to focus on emotion with the soundtrack rather than horror.

    They had some of the best teasers to a game ever as well. No one knew what the hell was going on and what it was. Made for some great excitement.

    Has anyone else played Super Meat Boy? I downloaded the demo and jesus christ its hard. I died 50 times on one level.

    Also, I noticed a lot of the XBLA went down in price. Scott Pilgrim for example was 4 bucks as well as Double Dragon neon and several others.

    It's fun and challenging haha. I have it for steam though. You should get it if it's pretty cheap.
