This was probably my favourite of the trailers that rolled out on Saturday, but it would be nice to know something a bit more concrete about the gameplay.

Looking pretty cool. It's Naughty Dog, so I doubt they will fall into anything generic.

Kind of cool that the whole "We want more Naughty Dog just not more Uncharted" request that has been echoing around the gaming press was already happening with a second team at Naughty Dog, this is so much better than Unkarted (despite how funny that concept is).

I'm actually tentatively looking forward to this based on the premise. Hopefully the kid isn't just baggage.

Overly cinematic post-apocalyptic zombie-fighting buddy game? So unoriginal.

I was already sold when I saw the ND logo. Looking forward to see what they can do outside of the Uncharted license.

I'm pretty tired of video game trailers that look more like movies than video games.

I am really interested to see what Naughty Dog can do with a new franchise, but I am very disappointed that Sony's big announcement is yet another zombie apocalypse game...

If they make the bad guys anything other than zombies or robots- I will buy into this game- if only in spirit.

At first I was hoping for something along the lines of The Road, but no. More zombies.

Can we as a society move past post-apocalyptic zombie games like we moved past WWII shooters? Please?

I know, Zombies (although they didn't look quite like Zombies)...... but I am actually really interested in this. The last uncharted was a little bit of a disapointment for me and I wish all that energy would have been expended on new ideas.

I also like the fact that it is set a long time after what ever event has occured, love seeing all the streets overgrown and the world all changed.

I also hope it is a little more open world and roaming than Uncharted but I doubt this will be the case.

I don't understand the gripe against the fact that this game has zombies, sure they've been used prominently in this generation but if it's a good game then what's the problem, I mean Dead Island had zombies but that didn't make it a bad game.

I'm already confident that this will be the best game of the PS3's lifespan. Once this game comes out, we will have no choice but to move on to the PS4.

I find it fascinating that they've positioned a teenage girl as a main (hopefully playable) character. Sure, she's very "Juno" but the fact that she's, well, a SHE is something videogames rarely handle well. Naughty Dog crushed it with Elena and Chloe in Uncharted, here's hoping they do a similar thing with 'Last of Us'.

I WANT MORE.

Hope this won't be all entirely linear and set-piece focussed like Uncharted. ND could make use of their experience with Jak II and III and possibly make an open-world out of this.

Ruger GP-100. Fine, reliable choice for shooting ... uh, dudes with cauliflower for heads. Looks like it could have some potential if the kid's not too annoying.

Something about the dialogue felt off. While the atmosphere and body language tried to give this tired, gritty feel, every time someone opened their mouth it was with a wink and a nod which was incredibly jarring.

This is going to sound really funny, but I have a really stupid phobia that is triggered frequently with certain types of fungi. Hahah, that would really suck if it becomes an actual issue when trying to play it.

Anyone else out there able to relate?
