Not very far in the game, maybe 20%, but I died at least 6 times in that room with like 4 infected runners and a clicker. As soon as I pissed it off and lost where it was, game over. Not many games can make so few enemies so tough. Also has a great atmosphere so far too.

I did the same thing, died multiple times...I was frustrated until I better utilized the listening mechanic where you can see where the enemies are.

One of my favorite strategies is to throw a glass bottle and lure all or most of them to it. Then hit them with a molotov and watch them buuuuuuuuuurrrrrrnnnnn.

I save all my molotovs for those fucking fart throwing bastards.

I need to get a headset, I play this shit without one and it's literally impossible. Could really be the downfall of the MP is the fact that communication sucks on the PS3.

Just about time to embark on my final journey of the campaign (well, at least for this playthrough).

[JayDizzle]

Started up some Hunter MP.

Shit is intense and if it's 4-on-1, you better have a nail bomb and decent aim.

Shiv's nice too.

[PepperNY]

holy shit, 60% into the game and I get my 1st trophy lol

[JayDizzle]

Finished my first night of MP.

Mics are a must to start with because if you can't communicate, it's the difference between getting mugged and rolling through the Scooby Doo Gang match after match.

Having limited Ammo hampers things a bit as well but with the system of either keeping all the Scrap you find for the end game total (to be swapped for a better Supply number for your clan) or pissing it away on personal armor and bullets... it definitely makes you think on your feet as you push forward through the "Weeks" system they have going on.

So far I'm keeping the amount of Supplies at a high enough level to accommodate the growing amount of people I have but I have a feeling that if I can't get an clip extension soon, it's going to get hairy.

Game's exciting enough to keep playing all in all.

Just finished the campaign. God dammit that game can trigger emotion like I've never seen before in a game. The writing and voice acting is absolutely top notch. Ellie is definitely in the running for my favorite character of this generation. Hopefully Troy Baker can keep delivering performances like this one (I know he's got the Joker in Arkham Origins and Delsin in inFAMOUS: Second Son coming up). Wasn't quite the ending I was expecting, but I'll take it. I don't even know what to say about Naughty Dog. Their game development is just at another level. I can't wait to see what the other team brings us in the next year or two.

Not sure what else to say since the spoiler tags aren't working lol.

I'll definitely have a review up on my blog at some point tomorrow and I'll post it in here as well.
