History NightmareFuel / TheLastOfUs

* The zombies. Picture a fungus literally blooming out of the entire top half of your face after having grown into your brain to take control of it and thus use you as its own personal vessel. Perhaps even more terrifying is that unlike the traditional zombie plague which requires one to be bitten for infection to occur, this fungus infects by releasing spores into the air which the would-be host breathes in. [[ParanoiaFuel So the very thing you absolutely need to live second-by-second could potentially be the end of you. One whiff of what seems like ordinary dust, and later you find yourself slowly turning into a walking culture of fungal growth that will eventually take you over completely and have you attack those near you, including your loved ones.]] Hope you brought a gas mask. The biting method still works as well.

* The intro. [[spoiler: The devs actually make zombies seem threatening when compared to games like ''Dead Island'' or ''Dead Riding'', where 100% of the time you can win just by throwing stuff at them.]]

** It gets worse, [[spoiler: just in that split second before black, you can see the Bloater's fingers [[EyeScream gouge out Joel's eyes]] so it has a better grip.]] Holy fucking shit.

* [[spoiler:Ellie vs David. David is a cannibal with some {{Lolicon}} parts and poor Ellie is fighting him with all she got, and the guy is taking pleasure out of it.]]

* Some of the death scenes are horrible, but special mention goes to one of the death scenes where [[spoiler: Joel's jaw is ripped wide open by a Bloater. While there is a GoryDiscretionShot stopping you from seeing much more, you still see what happens for a split second.]] Yeesh.

* Joel's complete lack of any moral quandaries when it comes to killing and maiming people who stand in his way, both in and out of gameplay. [[spoiler: He interrogates three people over the course of the game - in sequence, by breaking someone's arm, almost lobbing off a kneecap and shooting multiple times in the groin. Every time, he shows extreme efficiency.]]

* As Bill points out, it's not the Infected that's the scariest part. As you'll find out through the gameplay, it's usually other people who show you the worst and toughest combat.

* At about 2:45 [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jd4eNC3D8mQ this trailer]] shows Joel having to pull an infected corpse away from a door, and you can see that she's ''grown into'' the wall, with various body parts, notably her head, in a grotesque, warped shape that falls apart as Joel pulls her off the wall. And then the ending of the trailer has him rather graphically get his neck bitten apart by a mouth which remains squick-inducingly human.

* The extended demo shows a couple that was DrivenToSuicide by [[BodyHorror frying themselves with a toaster in a bathtub]]. Even Ellie is horrified. And the've been there for quite a while. Long enough that the bathwater is now [[{{Squick}} a black soup of bodily fluids and liquidized flesh.]]

* The 1st trailer. Picture a fungus literally blooming out of the entire top half of your face after having grown into your brain to take control of it and thus use you as its own personal vessel.
** Perhaps even more terrifying is that unlike the traditional zombie plague which requires one to be bitten for infection to occur, this fungus infects by releasing spores into the air which the would-be host breathes in. [[ParanoiaFuel So the very thing you absolutely need to live second-by-second could potentially be the end of you. One whiff of what seems like ordinary dust, and later you find yourself slowly turning into a walking culture of fungal growth that will eventually take you over completely and have you attack those near you, including your loved ones.]] Hope you brought a gas mask.
*** Oh, and [[OhCrap the biting method still works as well.]]

* Latest gameplay/trailer footages finally reveal in-game infected...and they're not pretty.

* According to the E3 footage, the gameplay looks like it's no slouch in this department. Death occurs realistically, and characters will act like they're in pain before they die. And by the end of the footage, [[spoiler:without breaking into a cutscene, the game prompts you, as Joel, to aim a shotgun at an enemy's head as he begs for his life. When he dies, there's a red spot where his head was, and the last moment of gameplay is the gunshot that you have just fired.]] This is {{Naughty Dog}}'s darkest game yet.
