The best bet for a cheap Last of Us would probably be SA-Mart. I've seen a few pop up there. Here's one right now for $40.

I just ordered a physical copy today and paid the exact same price it has on PSN.  Oh well, it's nice to have a physical copy at least. Also my HDD space is dwindling like a motherfucker.

I don't know why they wouldn't though. Just finished The Last of Us, about 13 hours and change to completion on Normal. That's definitely a game that gets under your skin.

Some parts some really cool stuff and make it out alive, while other parts will piss you the hell off with the bullshit and you will do the same thing, yet somehow make it after 5 or 6 tries.

I'm taking my time like crazy, just walking around and staring at how loving gorgeous and detailed everything is. I always stop and read every single movie poster, and (super minor spoiler I guess) in the record store I went and looked at the cover for every single album. The level of detail is off the loving chart, especially for a game where you're constantly moving forward to new levels. Naughty Dog is The Best Studio.

They could have shown it alongside PS4 and Xbox One games and it would still have been one of the best looking games. I can't wait to try out the harder difficulties once I've finished my first playthrough.

It is the most excessively over the top anime thing I have ever experienced, though. I groaned out loud at some of the dialog. Alicia in VC has absolutely nothing on these characters. I also am afraid to play it now, because last time I did I was almost instantly shamed via PSN message. :PBut yeah, interesting battle system anyway.

We're getting a free to play Gladiator combat game next week called Spartacus Legends. If it has any sort of progression/stats/equipment I'm sold. Gladiator sims (is that even a genre?) are some of my favorites.

(Link is probably  no matter where you work.)I'm going to go ahead and guess that it's not the case, though. Once again the gods spread the cheeks to ram cock in loving rear end. (Spartacus is a pretty great show, FYI. No idea about the game.)

I've never seen that once in a video game. The only game that has gut-punched me as hard was The Walking Dead. The Last of Us is a phenomenal achievement. Even the combat is tense and somehow seems more believable than in most 3rd person games. The beauty of the game stems from the small details - how the characters walk and interact with objects ( and each other ), how expressive the characters are ( I've never seen eyes done this lively in a video-game before ), and the voice-actors do a drat good job. The game looks amazing and the world is very, very immersive. I didn't expect anything less from Naughty Dog ( since Uncharted 2 is one of my favorite games ever ), but Last of Us is really living up to the hype.

The best and only gladiator game I've played was Shadows of Rome, a really fun game hat was ruined completely by unskippable stealth sections that you failed if you got spotted at all since you had no means of attacking or defending during those segments. Still, when you were playing the actual good part of the game you could lop off a dude's head and brandish it aloft as a salute to the crowd, who would shower you in powerful weapons as a sign of adoration.

Heavy Rain had only a handful of high points, and way too many things about it that made you laugh even though it was suppose to be completely serious. Like that one point where you can get the FBI agent killed in the garbage dump. It's even better when you do this because he comes back at the end of the game as a virtual ghost.

The colour's a bit washed out and I had to borrow a HDCP compliant TV to set it up, but I'm back in the game and only £20 out of pocket!  (for reference, I'm on a Flatron L203WT)

I love The Last of Us' multiplayer, but it's frustrating that your imaginary colony gets hosed over (albeit temporarily) if you lose connection to a match. It only happened to me once, but it was in the last minute of a match I had done particularly well in and that made it a little bit worse.

It's loving great online co-op from what I've played, the netcode is good and most people seem to actually know what they're doing. It's probably the best arcade beat 'em up of all time (and it's two full games!) so if anyone is on the fence, get off that thing and buy it!

I will agree that it was the best beat em up that was ever in arcade (it's close between that and Alien Vs Predator) but it still feels lacking when you compare it to the bunches of modern updates to the genre we got this gen. It's still totally worth getting and I really like the company Capcom have been using for their arcade ports recently because they always include a bunch of unlocks, pointless yet cool option and mini-achievements so you always feel like you're accomplishing something.
