Behind the scenes of The Last of Us with Tess
While I'm still not entirely sure what The Last of Us will be like from beginning to end, everything shown so far has looked most excellent. Following the impressive story trailer (that explosion!), developer Naughty Dog is now talking up one of the game's main characters, Tess. Played by Annie Wersching (24), Tess is protagonist Joel's partner in the black market of one of the quarantine zones. Above, we're shown a bit of motion-capture acting and the end result as it appears in-game. I kind of don't want to hear any more about The Last of Us until a copy is physically in my hands, but it's so hard to look away.

12:00 PM on 05.18.2013 Preview: The Last of UsI was skeptical of The Last of Us. Despite all the hype and high promises, to me, it looked like post-apocalyptic Uncharted. I wasn't sold on the dynamic nature of how the game progressed, and as we all know, zombies have been literally done to death in the past five years. Then, I got a chance to actually play it. How many days until June 14th again?
