"Uncharted" and "Jak and Daxter" developer promises new epic will be their "most ambitious" game ever. By Patrick Hickey Jr. While the narrative is a compelling one, the amount of attention to the artificial intelligence is where Naughty Dog thinks the game stands out. With their reputation confirmed after two of the most critically acclaimed series over the last decade, "Jak and Daxter" and "Uncharted," video game developer Naughty Dog has done the unthinkable. They've created a completely new genre. Dubbed a "survival action" game, the Santa Monica, Calif.-based company's newest title, "The Last of Us" is set in a post apocalyptic United States and centers around Joel, a smuggler, and his cargo, a young girl named Ellie who he must transport across the country. After a rare fungal infection kills millions and mutates millions more, militarized zones enforce martial law, making the journey a difficult one.
