The Last of Us releases it’s special editions- they look great!

The Last of Us is one of my most anticipated games of 2013. I’ve been a fan of Naughty Dog since Crash Bandicoot, and everything they’ve done with Uncharted has been nothing short of epic. Next time you see me, check out my Nathan Drake belt if you don’t believe me. Today, we get a couple of pictures from the upcoming special editions of the game.
