The Last of Us (PS3, from Uncharted's Naughty Dog)
Anyone been playing The Last of Us on PS3?
It's the latest game from Naughty Dog, the developers of the brilliant Uncharted trilogy.
3rd person action-adventure survival horror, set a couple of decades after a fungal outbreak has caused a zombie apocalypse.
You play as Joel, a jaded smuggler who ends up escorting a young girl called Ellie across America. You face off not just against different forms of "Infected" but also against other survivors, people who now do "whatever it takes" to stay alive.
Naughty Dog have really outdone themselves. It looks, sounds, and plays brilliantly, and IMO is one of the finest games of this generation on any platform. The story and voice acting are excellent.
I've put maybe 20 hours into it, and am 90something% of the way through.
Weapons and skills can be upgraded, but the scarcity of ammo means that you need to try and be stealthy a lot, avoiding fighting where possible or doing silent shiv/strangle kills if you can.
It's bloody brilliant. I think I'll jump right into newgame+ once I've finished.

I'm hoping to buy it this week once I get paid. Unless some kind fellow would borrow me it.

Hoping to pick it up soon.
Naughty Dog also created Crash Bandicoot way back on the PS1.

Without spoilers what does NewGame+ bring? Do you get to play any differently, unlimited ammo etc?

You get to keep all the stuff you unlocked and upgraded previously.
You pretty much have to do NG+ if you want more than just a couple of Trophies, as it's not possible to fully upgrade or unlock everything in one playthrough.

An improvised alternative ending, done after several mo-cap takes were shot for one of the final sections of the game.
Spoiler alert, obviously...
