What does this tell us? Very little, unfortunately. After The Last of Us was revealed , we figured out, thanks to a wily IGN reader, that the initial footage of the game surrounded a fungus called cordyceps that affects ants. This imagery keeps in line with the nature theme shown in the video of the ant, taken straight from BBC Planet Earth.Additionally, another screen, seen below, shows the front of a newspaper in a disheveled newspaper dispenser. A picture of what appears to be the fictional President of the United States speaking in front of an American flag is on the right, with THE LAST OF US The quote box over the picture says: "Our union remains strong... The military is mounting large guns and securing additional quarantine zones. This is our turning point. We can not and will not become the last of us. Mankind will prevail."Other stories below that main story are titled "Texas, New Mexico Quarantine Fails" and "England Latest to Declare Martial Law."Hopefully we'll hear more about The Last of Us in between now and Saturday, when the game will finally be exposed for all to see at the Spike TV Video Game Awards (the next date teased on the website is December 10th, which is this Saturday).In the meantime, sound-off in the comments below about what you think The Last of Us is about, and what kind of game it will ultimately end up being.If you watch the video of the ant here , the one you thought you saw this past weekend, watch it again. It's been updated with some new audio at the end that may interest you...
