The Last of Us delayed to June 14

Updated your calendars because Naughty Dog needs more time to polish The Last of Us. Originally planned for a May 7 release, this PS3 exclusive is now coming out on June 14.

The Uncharted developers made the announcement on Playstation's official blog:

"As we entered the final phase of development for The Last of Us, we came to realise just how massive Joel and Ellie's journey is. But instead of cutting corners or compromising our vision, we came to the tough decision that the game deserved a few extra weeks to ensure every detail of The Last of Us was up to Naughty Dog's internal high standards.

"As a team we pride ourselves on setting a very high quality bar for every aspect of our games - gameplay, story, art, design, technology and more. We want to make sure The Last of Us raises that bar even further - for ourselves, and most importantly, our fans.

"The extra wait will be very short and your patience will be rewarded. Update your calendars. You won't even have to change seasons. The Last of Us will be available June 14, 2013. Until then, know that we will be working extremely hard to deliver an experience that matches your high expectations."

The Last of Us is the only PS3 exclusive I'm excited for this year. Take all the time you need to polish the game, but hopefully this is the last delay we will see for Naughty Dog's latest.
