Hi all,
To be honest, there is only one decent game for release in June, and that is The Last of Us. It’s an Action/Adventure/RPG type game and from what I’ve seen of screenshots and trailers and even some gameplay it looks really good. If there are no more delays we should be able to get our hands on it on June 14th.
The Last of Us Game Description:
Twenty years after a horrifying plague, humans struggle to survive. The line between good and evil has been wiped away. What’s left of humanity makes whatever desperate choices they need to in a world where resources are scarce and danger is everywhere. Play as Joel, a grizzled scavenger hired to smuggle a 14-year-old girl out of a quarantined zone in this third-person action-survival saga from the makers of Uncharted. Ammo is scarce, so use your firepower wisely in play built on Dynamic Stealth – a strategic system that responds to and adapts outcomes based on your choices. Encounter infected humans, military patrols, and fellow survivors on a mission that will take you across the ravaged landscape of the United States.
You can tell it’s a naughty dog game, it has that play and feel about it, it reminds me a bit of the Uncharted games. I’ve also read that there will be online play but I don’t know what that entails as yet, could be similar to the Uncharted games but i’ll update when I know more. As of yet, I don’t know if I will be able to get this one the day of its release but I’m hoping. Have to wait and see.
Another game that comes out June 4th is Remember Me which is another Action/Adventure game, I don’t know much about this one but here is the game overview:
Remember Me Game Description:
In the not-too-distant future, society has removed all notions of privacy. Memories are digitized, enhanced, and bought and sold on the open market. You happen to be a thief with a very valuable skill: breaking into people’s minds and stealing those memories. Imprisoned by those who fear your power and your own memory wiped clean, you’ll escape from prison and fight to recover your own past. Play as Nilin, the most wanted memory hunter in Neo-Paris. Infiltrate people’s minds, stealing and even altering their memories as you outrun and outsmart the authorities that are trying to hunt you down. Remix people’s memories in real-time in a mind-warping combo of explosive martial-arts combat and uncertain reality.
This definitely sounds like something new, I’ve not heard of a story quite like this and it does interest me somewhat, I want to see some trailers and gameplay before I decide but I would probably rent this one to see how it plays, could be interesting.
That’s all for now, will post more as I get more info, happy gaming.
Tony 🙂
