Some Easter Eggs in TLoU: -In the Pittsburgh Toy Shop there is an Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception board game and a Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy Board game. -There is a Naughty Dog mousepad and other branded objects throughout -Someone left their PS3 lying around. -There are advertisements for an Uncharted movie starring Justin Bieber as Drake -Jak, Daxter, and Nathan Drake toys can be found lying around -There is an Irish pub called O'Sullivan's and an ID card registered to a John Sullivinsky (coincidence?) -O'Sullivan's looks remarkably similar to Uncharted 3's Pelican Pub. -Scavenging around in the Sewer section will uncover several notes left behind by a mysterious survivor named Ish. His complete storyline starts off optimistic but things quickly go south for him and the survivors he meets and Ish's fate is ultimately left ambiguous. -Bill's Town was evacuated in Q4 2013. The same time period the PS4 launches! The only Easter Egg they are missing is a zoo with a car crashed into one of the exhibits and a bandicoot skeleton lying nearby.
Some of my favorite moments in TLoU [spoiler] The beginning
playing as Ellie during Winter and killing Nolan North as Ellie making enemies beg for their life the giraffes the hores the full circle aspect of Joel's story-arc, where he fails in carrying his daughter Sarah to safety in the prologue but in the epilogue succeeds in carrying his daughterly figure Ellie to safety. when you get access to the flamethrower, El Diablo, the hatchet... the death scene when you get killed by a bloater [/spoiler]
The setting and atmosphere is dark and brooding, the combat is tight and glorious to watch, and the game is very varied. The plot is good, but what really sells it is the phenomenal voice acting and characters. The game also has tons of content after you beat the game. It's the little things I like, like how Batman's armor gets more and more beat up as you play, and he even grows stubble as you play. I now love Rocksteady.Â
There's also a couple of TLoU in-game posters that seem to parody actual thingies I've seen a Transporter parody, the Twilight parody, and possibly a Clash parody.

fantastic game for sure, though for me City totally tops it.Â

I like the scale and traversal in city. I like the feel of the game more and I love the way it's put together. I feel the design is weirdly more seemless and it just refines every part I would want while giving me a great new experience which I prefer over the original.
I love how Good Old Games gives you like bonus goodies for everything.
Witcher 2 is only $9.99 on GOG until June 5th, you should snatch it up right now! Why don't you get Planescape: Torment, Fallout 2, Deus Ex, and The Longest Journey for an add. $4.99 each while you're at it?
I found Kojima in Peace Walker, was funny. I like that Snake recognised him by sight and was super surprised. I now have Kojima working on my base also :).

Had an impromptu games night last night, included me, Emma, my housemate Aj and a friend Rich. Started with me showing them Tokyo Jungle and Noby Noby boy, then we played some Tekken 2, I then best them at Street Fighter 4 before we messed around in Burnout Paradise. Then we set up the rockband set and played a lot of Rockband 3. Was awesome!
