Excellent! Not the usual gaming "journalism", a couple of sound bites across 3 minutes, but a genuine interview.

"My little gamer heart" I don't think I've ever heard something so adorable.

"I don't care what the industry is doing" solidifies why I have so much respect for these folks.

"Who's got the fucking blueprint?"

TLOU....best game ever but Cant wait till uncharted 4 though

The Last of Us 2 and Uncharted 4 are going to be absolutely brilliant. Can't wait to see what TLOU2 looks like on ps4. Uncharted 4 looks spectacular

Thumbs up if you still play the game today...

Favourite moments: Neil: a girl came out as lesbian Bruce: connecting gameplay

20:25 "We're Naughty Dog."

Bruce & Neil are such amazingly talented guys, who also seem really humble. In my opinion, Naughty Dog are the best developers in the gaming industry. I'm so glad Bruce & Neil have taken over Uncharted 4. No disrespect to Amy Hennig, she's an amazingly talented writer, but after Uncharted 3's weak story, Ugh. I think going a different route with Bruce & Neil at the helm will make for a better game overall. The fact that everyone at Naughty Dog are allowed to give " Constructive criticism " on gameplay elements, level design, ect is the reason they've been so success & have delivered amazing games for so many years now.

never played any of the Uncharted games but this was a great interview, respect to Naughty Dog

I love that when they where questioned if Uncharted 2 was the blueprint for 4 that they replied with a 'no'. That is what puts these developers over the top when you compare them with the stream of copy/pastes by other developers over the past couple years. Naughty Dog are constantly trying to push the boundaries and want to make games that they actually want to themselves, Neil Druckmann and Bruce Straley are real role models for anyone wanting to enter the video game industry.

these guys are the spielbergs and scorsese of gaming

OVER 220 GOTY Awards..........................That's INSANE!

Sad that Bruce left 😢💔

The Last of Us is the best game I've ever played and I'm confidant that Uncharted 4 will be EXTREMELY impressive. Naughty Dog never disappoints!

Uncharted 4 will be Xbox One's nail in the coffin

I wish you were still with Naughty Dog Bruce. You’re the man🙌💪🏻

I've been playing TLOU on Grounded, and it's so weird seeing him have 11 rounds for his pistol.. it's like what?? That much ammo exists?? XD

I love this interview format, I'd like to see BioWare and Kojima Productions monthly coverage too!

I like how they curse like normal people and don't need to pretend formal. Can't wait for uncharted 4.

Great interview. I really appreciate how much effort they put into their projects. It really raises the bar for the industry.

amazing, amazing interview. I love how you guys allow neil and Bruce to talk throughout the entire interview

I don't even know why but I just love to listen to these dudes talk.

What a great format! I love these long interviews with developers. Please make this an ongoing series. Get developers from Ubisoft, KojimaProductions, VisceralGames, Santa Monica, etc. etc.... just get them to sit down with you for an hour. I just want to hear them talk about what they do. It's inspiring as fuck.

I like what he brought up with developing a game that he wants to develop, and not falling into what's popular in the industry. Open world games have become a lot more popular, but Uncharted is not an open world game, it's supposed to be "liner" to tell a story. This is the 4th entry in the franchise so it would make no sense to all of a sudden make an open world game with a lot of choices

That was a thoroughly enjoyable interview. I wish we had more of this stuff. I love hearing the how, what, when and where of game development. I wish we got even more, I want to know why this or that got cut, what an original vision was and how it changed. For instance, Ellie's dog in the Last of Us, cool tidbit and interesting, I want to know more lol.

31:57 is a fuckin gold mine. That aged so god damn well.

Dear Naughty Dog, why the fuck do you have a bigass Nicholas Cage poster in your offices? ._.

I guess if Bruce was involved in Part 2, things could have been better.

Beautiful coverage and interview, I thoroughly enjoyed every second. Wish it didn't end.

Great interview! I thought the same thing when I played TLOU, specially about blind fire... how the MP was so much better without it. I kept thinking... can they ever can bac to the YOLO style of Uncharted? It's now pretty clear they can. The trailers have certainly impressed me, even though I thought it'd get old.

Druckmann and Starley deserve to be mentioned in the same lines of Hideo Kojima, Ken Levine, and Tim Schafer when it comes to video game genius. They've created two masterpieces in Uncharted 4 and The Last of Us, and I guarantee that The Last of Us Part II will be another masterpiece.

Cool interview these guys are geniuses in the way they use gaming to tell fantastic and emotional stories really looking forward to uncharted 4

The last of us 2 naughty dog PLEASE just PLEASE

Neil Druckmann needed Bruce Straley as a co-writer for The last of Us Part 2. I think he pulled a George Lucas move and tried to do it all on his own.

"My little gamer heart swelled up. I WANNA PLAY THAT GAME"

You play Uncharted in a pizza parlor whereas you play The Last of Us in a movie theater - the story and characters are just so much more relatable and believable

fantastic interview! I've completed Uncharted 4 once, and currently replaying on the highest difficulty & I'm playing through the last of us on Grounded, boy its tough

I hope this guys never split...they are such a good team, perfectly completing each others visions. What's up with the random Nic Cage poster at 30:49 ...I couldn't work beside those crazy eyes. 😅

Uncharted and Last of Us are some of the best things created by naughty dog and in the gaming industry in general.

The fact that game making is hard to them proves that they actually give a shit unlike *cough* Unisoft *cough*.

can you guys upload the mark cerny platinum architect interview

Bruce & Neil. They must be a joy to work for. They really seem to live the love of the passion they have for there team, game and what surrounds that!

U3 multiplayer is great. I remember playing it for the first time, and I had nooo idea what was going on, I knew that I was dying over and over, though. After getting some experience and better weapons, I ended up getting some of the best multiplayer moments ever from it, I hope they really have a great expansive multiplayer like U3 had, except better.

I love these guys, you just know they're gonna blow this game out the park, they never fail, people say Uncharted 3 was a let down, yeah it was for an Uncharted game but it was a great game compared to other games, damn I cant wait, this is the only development team I absolutely trust to make GREAT FUCKING GAMES!!!!

Game Informer can you announce the interviews beforehand and add a Q&A section? it would be a really great feature for the fans.

Ok but that giant nick cage blanket hanging on the wall at 30:49

Why would you complain about Drake killing hundreds by the time the game is over? There is a simple explanation for it: Video Game. And if you say it "breaks your immersion," it's Uncharted... not a reality simulator.

Uncharted 2 was the best game in the series so if it as good as that I will be very happy.

I love you guys's videos, all the things in it are really informed and you guys treat this game industry with a strict attitude. Good Job!

Really nice interview and nice format indeed ! And Bruce sounds like Nolan North

I truly enjoy to see the actual people working at Naughty Dog. The company is legendary, in a way. The more titles I know that are from this company, the more I realize that they are phenomenally amazing. And I also like that they are all so relaxed, cool, human, respectful and very down-to-earth. And the fact that they don't focus on nor even care about what other game-companies are doing, is an important thing, because they can therefor put that energy into what they are doing. All these factors and beyond, is what makes Naughty Dog one of the absolute best game-companies on the market.

31:50 CONFIRMED

Neil & Bruce are such likable guys, that have such creative and in depth minds. I could talk to these guys for hours. Just awesome

I was surprised to see that they have Crash stuff around the offices, I thought they had forgotten they had ever made that.

Its funny to think they were already working on the last of us 2

Naughty Dog is the only studio which was it's only competitor is it self

these two geniuses are something else...I would do anything just to have a 10 minute conversation with them. They seem so thoughtful and smart

Cracking interview guys.. I have not had a PS since 2 and it looks like i've missed out! Both games look equally amazing and are making me want to go back to sony.. well done Naughty Dog and well done Bruce Straley and Neil Druckmann, solid work guys.

My top four games of all time go as such... 4. Uncharted 3. Uncharted 3 2. Uncharted 2 1. The Last of Us Oh! Surprise! Surprise! They are all made by Naughty Dog! Now other great games that are worth mentioning, L.A. Noire, Heavy Rain, The Walking Dead (by Telltale Games), And so many more that I don't have time to name! And before you say anything. No GTA 5 does not make my list of the best games ever. It is a great game and has alot to do both online and offline, however after I completed the main story and did some of the side objectives I quickly moved on to other games. The game just wasn't able to keep my interest much after the story and the online mode was disappointed. But before you get mad, GTA 5 is a great game, just not on my list of the best. Also I like games that are very story driven and that take you on an emotional rollercoaster and make you really care about the main characters.

Last of Us 2: would really like it to be about the people who left the notes behind in Last of Us 1, like Ish and all

Is that Ben Hanson conducting the interview?

Great interview; can't wait to love another ND creation. As someone who puts Last of Us somewhere in my all-time top ten list, I'm so relieved to hear and feel these two devs' committment to making another mind-blowing adventure; and nothing I've seen so far has changed that perception. I've been playing games since Pong, Dungeons & Dragons, and they share a place with Nintendo in my heart. I just can't wait to dive into another adventure with them again.

JAK X COMBAT RACING 2??

After Uncharted 4 releases how bout a remaster for the Uncharted trilogy for PS4 yeah! :D

Man I remember playing Naughty Dog's Crash Bandicoot on the PS1 and now with Uncharted series its absolutely amazing how evolved their games get.

0:12 Druckmann mentions working on The Last of Us film way back when it was still being written and expected to be in production. Now it's in development hell.

damn this made uncharted 2 look so old... i thought that was the best it could get back then lol

They lied so much at the end of this video! lol and the trailer for TLOU Part II was made a year before this video release! xD

It's been announced at Comic-Con a year ago...

The razor scooters passing by in the back lmao. so awesome. I know Pixar has them as well. I wonder how common they are in dev studios in general.

rather than making the last of us 2, create a new story in a new world. sequels are always difficult to be made and to do justice to the first game.

please dont compare， those all uncharted are masterpiece.

30:52 I thought I was watching footage of Sonic Boom Rise Of Lyric for a second.

They made Nathan Drake's face look abit like he's Voice actor Nolan North That Awesome.

Neil looks very badass in my opinion. He should be the main character of The Last of Us 2 haha

Pause at 5:20 Lol

I respect the developers but i just wish they would a little more side missions to the game, maybe like add like side puzzles during the storyline, then again who am I to question the creators. This franchise really is one the best out there. Im sure they will do a good job with the 4th one

So sad that Bruce left ND. Good luck with your future sir and thank you!

These guys have the best job.

I don't want TLOU2 without Joel & Ellie. Would you really want Uncharted without Nate? The same way Nate & Sully make Uncharted, J&E make TLOU

Holy shit. I didn't notice the glass was the naughty dog paw until the interview was ending

Man, I loved play Jak X with my friends. That was a lot of fun.

what a fuckin masterpiece

30:48 Fucking Nicolas Cage. I love you Naughty Dog.

What an excellent video. I want to work for you guys so hard

Founders Jason Rubin, Andy Gavin! come bak. though i hope that the lead designers of Jak and daxter- Mark Cerny, Amy Hennig, Hirokazu Yasuhara - are still willing to rejoin to make another installment in the series.

Bruce straley would've have nailed the last of us 2

My fave developers - Naughty Dog - Quanticdream - Rockstar And EA lol just kidding

I hope theres more explantion on nathan drakes younger childhood years like how we saw in uncharted 3 except alot more then 2 levels. What would be really awsome is having a game where sully is the main character and shows the journey with young drake that would be awsome.

These two are amazing. Thanks for the interview! And I can't wait for Uncharted 4. You know you will be getting something OUT OF THIS WORLD when it comes from one of the best studios in the industry.

Make the Last of Us 2, cmon.

The last of us 2 for me

always love these long winded talks. you learn so much.

Does anyone know why the kept talking about Uncharted 2 not 3? did they not work on Uncharted 3?

We need Bruce to save TLOU part 3

Disappointed by the delay.

I hope u guys explore the idea of Jak 4 again. It would be amazing to see and play a new Jak on PS4 with new guns and story

That head slam at 4:10 Ouch.
