The Last of Us 2 PAX East demo will give players an hour to patrol with Ellie and Dina

The Last of Us 2 PAX East demo is bringing enough game to justify the struggle for a demo booth slot.
Naughty Dog revealed today that it will bring an hour-long segment of The Last of Us 2 gameplay to the Boston convention: from February 27 to March 1, attendees will be able to try out a section of the game called "Patrol". This is the part of the game where Ellie and her girlfriend Dina head out of their home town of Jackson to clear out infected in the surrounding area - it sounds similar to the slice we got to try in our The Last of Us 2 hands-on preview.
Hour-long public demos for just about any game, let alone one as hotly anticipated as The Last of Us 2, are almost unheard of. It's a cool choice given its deliberate pace and the little bit of story Naughty Dog wants to reveal, though it does mean demo slots will likely be an extremely hot commodity. Your best bet at getting in will be to use the Experience PlayStation mobile app, as Naughty Dog says it will make new appointments available each day of the show. You might be able to grab a spot just by dashing to the front of the line as soon as the convention center's doors open, but no guarantees.
On top of it being the site of the last big show in North America before the game comes out, Boston is also where The Last of Us begins in proper (after a prologue in Texas). On top of that, it's where Naughty Dog first let fans play the original game back at PAX East 2013.
Naughty Dog has also confirmed that it's working with suppliers and retailers to make more copies of The Last of Us 2: Ellie Edition available - check out our guide on how to pre-order The Last of Us 2 for more details.

20 Best Story Games on PS4 2020

Want to get lost in some amazing stories? Gameplay may be the defining characteristic of a great game but it’s the story that keeps you coming back for more. Storytelling in gaming can be as subtle as a few tidbits in the item descriptions or as macro as button blasting QTEs during life or death struggles. Every flavor has its charm though, and with that in mind we’ve compiled this list of the best PS4 story games. The ranking includes everything from small scale indies to the biggest and best of the AAA sphere, from walking simulators to open world action games. Note:  remakes and remasters have been omitted from this list, as have games from previous generations that have since been ported over. 20. BATMAN: ARKHAM KNIGHT Arkham Knight Developer:  Rocksteady Publisher:  WB Games While Batman: Arkham Knight may not be the best of the Rocksteady Batman games, it is still home to a compelling narrative and some wonderful moments for the Caped Crusader.

Yakuza 5 Review

 The huge Yakuza 5 arrives remastered and closes the trilogy The Yakuza Remastered Collection on PS4, a console that already has all the main saga.      With Yakuza 5 Remastered , Sega brings the entire main series to PlayStation 4, from the prequel Yakuza 0 to the airs of change that Yakuza brings : Like a Dragon , which we will talk more about this year. Fans, new or veteran, can relive the adventures of Kazuma Kiryu with remakes, remasters and native deliveries of PS4, and Yakuza 5 closes The Yakuza Remastered Collection , the physical edition with the Yakuza of PS3 - Yakuza 3, 4 and 5 - . We only miss the spin-offs , but few apologies remain to discover this saga of brawler action and touches of role. Yakuza 5 arrived in the final stretch of PlayStation 3, in Japan in 2012. Yakuza had not reaped the popularity it has today, still moderate but enough for Sega to trust his success even in the West. Its original launch was delayed for years, even doubting its distributi

Thea 2: The Shattering - Starter Guide

This guide is going to help you understand Thea core mechanics and equip you with tools that will allow you to explore its world. I don't want to tell you how to play exactly, I want to explain and give you map and compass so you can start your own adventure. How to Start Set Up for Survive So... starting the game asks you to create a profile. Each profile gives you 2 random Gods, and 2 God points so if you don't like the ones you get on the beggining you can just create new profile. The last two Gods you can unlock for free by completing game objective, while other gods you can unlock by spending god points. Be carefull, The more gods you unlock the more points it will take to unlock another one. Each god has:  Unique trait. 2 domain cards (except 2 last ones, they have 3). 4 slots (3 for last gods) for neutral cards. At the beggining you won't have much points and you probably don't know the impact and effect of most of the cards. My advice is to go
