Waiting for his older lap-top to load so that he can show the progress of his next book, it is hard to see the history of drugs and prison on his year-old bright and excited face. He was the fourth child out of six, and lived in hard times. This meant that all the children had to help financially when they could. Daniels, on the other hand, considers himself raised in Milwaukee.

As they reach the edge of town, a soldier tasked with containing the situation opens fire. Naughty Dog shows similar restraint throughout, with long stretches of silence or off-screen action, leaving it up to your imagination to fill in the gaps. But The Last of Us keeps you hooked by offering hope.

So what sets it apart? He draws a contrast with Dead Space, which plays out as a series of tasks the player fails at.

Naughty Dog needed players to care about the relationship between Joel and Ellie, and so the duo are always shown relying on each other. Joel is the protector, but Ellie saves his life more than once. When Joel is near-fatally impaled by a metal rod, Ellie is forced to provide for them, hunting in the woods and fending off would-be raiders until Joel recovers.

In other words, they can only survive as a pair, and when Ellie tries to run off at one point, it nearly ruins everything. Individually, Joel and Ellie are complicated, and flawed, which makes them more believable. Bring to the boil and simmer gently for about 2 hours — you will need to skim the surface of the stock during the initial stages of the cooking.

After that strain the stock into a fresh saucepan, discard all the debris and boil rapidly until it has reduced to about 1 pint ml and has a good flavour. Taste and season with salt and lemon juice as required, then whisk in the gelatine.

Cover the mixture and chill overnight. Stage two takes place the following day. Make sure the jellied stock has set and skim the surface thoroughly. Next, finely mince together the pork fat, lean pork and any game scraps from the day before. Add the spices, garlic, parsley and a seasoning of salt and pepper: Shape each quarter into a flat round slightly smaller than the diameter of the cake tin wet your hands for this job to make it easier.

Now for the pastry: Place the lard and 8 fl oz ml water in a saucepan and heat until the lard has melted and the water is boiling. Then immediately pour the liquid into the dry ingredients and stir with a spoon to form a dough. Turn the dough out on to a working surface and knead very lightly and briefly. Now weigh 1 lb 5 oz g of the dough, reserving the rest for the 'lid', put it in a loosely folded plastic bag and let it cool a little before rolling it out to a round similar in diameter to that of the cake tin.

Place the round of dough in the tin, then gradually work it from the centre of the base and up the sides of the tin. Work your way round the tin, using your curled-up fingers as a pad, gently squeezing the dough up the side and just over the rim. Make sure the pastry is as even as possible with no obvious cracks or thin places. Next line the inside of the pastry mould with the bacon rashers, cutting them level with the top of the tin. Place a round of the pork mixture in the base and pat it out to fit the interior.
