The Last Of Us Part 1 Players Are Sharing Their Weirdest Glitches On PC

To say that Naughty Dog has botched the PC launch of The Last of Us Part 1 would be very kind. It started out with players becoming increasingly irritated regarding constant crashes and lacklustre frame rates, which led to an avalanche of negative reviews on the Game's Steam page. However, now that more and more people have started playing, we're starting to see a whole bunch of weird and baffling glitches that are only growing in variety as time goes on.

We'll start out with the texture glitches, and there is a whole lot of those flying around at the moment. Not only has Joel's new look - something that people are now referring to as "Steam Deck Joel" - gone viral and swiftly become a meme, but there are other characters also affected by these strange texture issues. Ellie hasn't been able to escape the dreaded texture glitches, and neither has Sarah, whose hair has been turned white and had a plate of spaghetti dumped on her head. One person even had some nearby buildings turn into a massive neon pink wall.

If it was just texture issues, then maybe the launch could've been forgiven, but the glitches are coming thick and fast, some of them completely unexplainable. For instance, one particular clip has been doing the rounds on Twitter, as Joel, Ellie, Tess, and Marlene are speaking with each other in a room. Everything seems to be running perfectly fine, until both Ellie and Joel suddenly get drenched from head to toe with no warning, as drops of water continue to drip off of their character models throughout the scene.

There are also quite a few issues with the Game's character models doing unexpected things as well, the most notorious clip being one from Twitter user CaseyExplosion that shows Tess t-posing and twitching inside of a mailbox while Joel looks on, probably very concerned and confused. Another clip from u/ArgumentNo6281 on Reddit shows Joel using his daughter Sarah as a weapon to try and fend off an approaching infected, while another from u/a7x- shows both Joel and Tommy rotating wildly in the car as the family tries to drive to safety in the Game's opening.

We'll probably see even more bizarre videos surface over the next few days, or until Naughty Dog issues some substantial patches. The developer has released a statement regarding the rough state of the Game and is actively looking into the situation. A hotfix was rolled out earlier today that focused on performance and stability, though it doesn't seem to have fixed some of the weirder issues that have been surfacing. Hopefully, the Game will be in a playable state sooner rather than later.

The Last Of Us Show Confirms How The Virus Spread

HBO's The Last Of Us is well and truly off and running now, its second episode airing on Sunday night. That episode confirmed a fan theory regarding how exactly the cordyceps fungus was able to spread so quickly. Be warned if you haven't seen the first two episodes of the show, the rest of this article is teeming with pretty significant spoilers. Just hours after the show premiered nine days ago, fan theories started to swirl pointing to contaminated flour being the root of what quickly becomes an effectively world-ending pandemic. That theory was confirmed to be accurate during the opening few minutes of episode two. Another flashback, this time in Indonesia, during which a mycologist examines a flour factory worker infected by cordyceps.

MTG's Phyrexia: All Will Be One Card Lets You Kill Your Opponent In Just Two Turns

Magic: The Gathering’s next set, Phyrexia: All Will Be One, is currently being previewed. While we’ve seen all kinds of big, splashy cards, the one that’s given players the fear is, of all things, a tiny little Goblin Warrior. With just three cards and two lands, Cacophony Scamp can wipe an opponent out as early as turn two. Even more scarily, this combo works in both Modern and Pioneer, where it could give birth to a new take on the deck known as Hammer Time. RELATED: Magic: The Gathering – Phyrexia: All Will Be One Previews As noted on Reddit, Cacophony Scamp is an unassuming 1/1 Goblin Warrior costing just one red mana. It doesn’t have haste, but it does have two big upsides: it can sacrifice itself once it’s dealt combat damage, and when it dies, it deals damage equal to its power to any other target. THEGAMER VIDEO OF THE DAY With these two abilities, Cacophony Scamp becomes an absolute fiend when...

Mortal Kombat 11 Fans Discover Hidden Voice Line Four Years After Launch

Mortal Kombat 11 will be four years old in April, and fans are still making new discoveries. The latest is one that was teased by NetherRealm Studios senior designer Aaron Davis back in 2020, three years ago, and as it turns out, he was hinting at a hidden voice line. "For people who like hidden stuff in MK Game s, there's something in MK11 I put in that hasn't been found yet from what I can tell," Davis tweeted (as reported by Euro Game r). "Only hint I'll give is it's done inside a match and it's been there since day 1, so not DLC related." RELATED: Marvel’s Midnight Suns' Abbey Is The Perfect Mix Of Hades And Mortal Kombat YouTuber Waz, on February 19, revealed that, after four years, the mystery had finally been cracked, and it's an old-school style easter egg. When Erron Black beats an opponent, he flips a coin before sliding it into his pocket. However, if you hold the up arrow on the D-pad, he will instead throw it a...
