    This game is a masterpiece. No need to go too deep into it. It's a masterclass in storytelling. Gameplay is very solid. Graphics are the best of its era. Joel and Ellie are such good characters.

    The game is absolutely stunning, the graphics are awesome, the story is heartbreaking and touching. At the end you are soooo inlove with the characters that you are scared of how their relationship will go in the future. It's a must play both part one and part two.

    The thing about videogames is, imo, they should be fun to play. Last of Us offers a very great story, and would probably be a great movie or show, but the gameplay is usually bland/boring with occasional moments of intensity.

    I have never been a fan of games with horror zombie apocalypse topics. I played some of them such as The Evil Within games, tried one Resident Evil game and few others. The common thing for all those games (in my opinion) was that they are very successful in making you scared and uncomfortable but when it comes to the storylines - they were all so thin and weak, sometimes even pointless. II have never been a fan of games with horror zombie apocalypse topics. I played some of them such as The Evil Within games, tried one Resident Evil game and few others. The common thing for all those games (in my opinion) was that they are very successful in making you scared and uncomfortable but when it comes to the storylines - they were all so thin and weak, sometimes even pointless. I am fine with gore and fear but if that is the only point in the game then I do not find it really interesting.

    I have been avoiding playing The Last of Us because I thought it is just another zombie game but when I finally started playing I saw after two hours of gameplay that this game is completely different. This is the first game with such topic (zombie outbreak) that I liked and it definitely is the best game with zombies and one of the best games that I have ever played and that is because it only uses the zombie apocalypse as an atmosphere in which context lies a story about Joel, the adult and Ellie, fourteen year old girl, who are on their journey through the country. The game puts an accent on the story and does not have a gameplay based on infinite shooting at zombies, or how they call them in the game, infected. It is far from that but the gameplay is far from a piece of cake and it should also satisfy gamers who are into action and shooting, especially if they select harder difficulty modes.

    I played both PS3 and PS4 version of this game and visually it is one of the best looking games for PS3. Even in 2020, 7 years after it was released, this game still looks very nice being put next to some other good looking PS4 titles. The PS4 remastered version has a little visual improvements such as full HD resolution and more fps.

    Speaking of a gameplay, The Last of Us does not bring many innovations - it rather improves some stuff that we already saw in third person action-adventure games. The gameplay perfectly combines exploration and combat with cutscenes without overdoing each of those. You can play this game in many ways. You can be aggressive and shoot everything at your sight but you can also sneak and be quiet. There are many ways of passing through the areas and for the most part you can really choose if you want to assassinate your enemies or find a way around.

    Through the game you will find different sorts of weapons and there is a crafting system allowing you to make improvised bombs and melee weapons.

    Another part of a gameplay is walking and exploration followed by interesting dialogs.

    The Last of Us has a very fine acting, one of the best I saw in video games, which an emotional story of this game certainly needs, a story that most of the players would breathlessly follow until the end.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. What The Last of Us has that others games don't? The combat and gameplay are great, but no exceptional, the graphics are just gorgeous, as Naughty Dog always makes, the story is amazing and the storytelling top notch, but not for a 10. Then, what is it? The short dialogues and expressions between the characters and their development. This game has some of the greatest character's development, and if you don't pay attention to little things, expressions, faces, and short dialogues between Ellie and Joel, you won't see how great this game really is. Walking around the cities, abandon houses and buildings, listening and learning with the characters, as you are part of that, as you are also growing with them. The most significant scene that express the core of the game, is the one where Ellie and Joel see some giraffes and pet them. That scene seems to be just a simple and nice part of the game, but it has a deep meaning behind it, expressing the changes and the development of the world and of Ellie and Joel, as they now move on and continue to walk, with only the future ahead. Seeing how the city that once was full of people, which now has animals walking freely around it, makes you wonder if the future will be good or bad, but they move on. And we also move on, taking step by step to the future where we belong. The Last of Us ending is one of the most discussed endings: was Joel right or wrong? It all depends how you look at it. He was not wrong, but he was not right. He was a cold man, he was broken and fixed on the past. Ellie showed him how the present and future can be good, and he moved on. Ellie saved him, and he saved Ellie for his own well being. I can't say I don't understand him, as I would do the very same thing. We are all humans after all.… Expand

    I've always believed "nothings perfect," then I played this game. The Last of Us is, at its core, a simple story/narrative told flawlessly.

The story is about the relationship between Joel and Ellie which is developed flawlessly and at a perfect pace through well-timed story beats, relatable dialogue, environmental storytelling, and even combat. Moments of darkness are offset by moments of light, both that contribute to the narrative. Every single side character Joel and Ellie come across strengthens their personal motivations, their bond, all while having a believable arc of their own. Combat fits the world perfectly, and Ellie's scrappiness is conveyed perfectly through how she develops during combat sequences. The development of Joel and Ellie's father/surrogate daughter relationship feels very real, relatable, and honest, and the ending will have you asking yourself morally complex questions. This is the greatest story ever told by video games, T.V shows, and even movies.… Expand

    This is hands-down the best video game since probably Final Fantasy VII back in 1997.

The combat and game play was so far ahead of everything else. The way the environment was incorporated into melee combat especially stood out to me at the time.

    The story was absolutely captivating. The characters were likable and well-written. You empathized with them and you felt their pain for the choices they had to make. This was one of those once in a generation games that showed you what a genre could be instead of just a new skin on the same style and format.

    Crafting items wasn't overwhelming with 10 different upgrade trees and a convoluted system that required you to wander around doing side quests for hours before you moved on. It was just enough to make sense and for pretty much everything to be useful.

    Fighting infected enemies was genuinely terrifying and stressful. Human enemies followed predictable paths and the AI wasn't great, but each fight always felt personal and intense.

    This game is just phenomenal; one of the best of all-time.    … Expand

    - Excelente desenvolvimento dos personagens principais.
    - Conseguiu criar uma atmosfera de pós-pandemia muito convincente. Diferente de jogos do mesmo gênero, consegue criar no jogador um sentimento de tensão constante e urgência.
    - O sistema de encontrar recursos e ter que "craftar" os itens com os reagentes certos nos locais certos agregam a trama do jogo
    - A partir da trama é possível extrair uma série de temas filosóficos que continuam pertinentes no mundo contemporâneo. Ex: homem é o lobo do homem; política; fragilidade da vida humana; egoísmo; amor; sacrifício
    - gráficos realistas
    - excelente trilha sonora
    - excepcional trabalho de consistência entre dublador e personagem. Ex: a voz da dubladora da ellie encaixou certinho com a personagem.

    --> Pontos negativos:
    - Existência de uma DLC que deveria ser parte do jogo original. Quem jogou o game em fase teve que comprar a DLC por fora. NaughtyDog lançou o jogo de modo incompleto e se você quiser a experiência completa terá que pagar 2x pelo mesmo jogo.
    - Incoerência entre armas no jogo e na vida real. Ex: você dá um tiro de shotgun num cidadão a uma distância de 2m e ele não morre com um tiro.    … Expand

    I played this game on the PS3, and I hated it. It was completely stealth-based, you had to move slowly to survive. If I wanted to play a stealth game, I would've played Splinter Cell (because you had to move the exact same way, in both games). Uncharted, it's not.

    - the gameplay and combat are evenly balanced between exposition and tense battles of survival and there is a whole lot of crunch to the game play that helps set it apart and add a sense of identity

    - the bond between Ellie and Joel is full of heart is well and truly the glue that hold the game together and helps add a sense of hope to an otherwise hopeless set of circumstances e.g Ellie,s joke book helps lighten the mood and prevent the game from being complete misery lit

    - the art and sound design are quite good and there very little bad to say about it

    cons
    - the story does following the usual story beats done in postapocayptic stories e.g
    cannibals,fighting over resources,pragmatists vs idealists, that is the only really bad thing i can say about this game.

I can confidently say that the development for Joel and Ellie made the characters come to life in a way that I was able to find a deep emotional attachment to. The side characters do not feel impersonal at all (I loved them all especially Bill!), but add complex notes of what it means to be human and survive in such a violent and post apocalyptic world. I especially love the constrast between light/dark moments in the game for it really puts into perspective the theme of finding love and hope in unexpected and dark place. I played this game years for the first a year or so after its release and it was worth every minute. I don’t usually play games multiple times, but this one was just that amazing.… Expand

    Story and characters made this game a masterpiece, game-play is brutal and fun, survival and horror tension are often breathtaking, the game-play diversity could be perfectible, but I personally love it mostly for the scenario and its characters development. (multiplayer mode is pretty cool too)

    Naughty Dog’s new IP from Neil Druckmann is a brutalist survival masterpiece that must be played and I did not expect for Naughty Dog to go all out with The Last of Us which had me by the balls really good. Incredible, just incredible.

    This game, it's DLC, and it's sequel, The Last of Us Part II, these two games are the best video games I've ever played.
    These entries are the most mature and thought out titles I've ever encountered. I hold these two games in the unbeatable realm of Red Dead Redemption II and GTA V.

    LETS HOPE THE LAST OF US PART III IS A POSSIBLY.

    Great game in every way. It hooks you from the beginning, it excites you to the end. It is very easy to love your characters. Graphically it is beautiful. Monsters are terrifying. I do not give it a 10 because it is playably a little wrong, but nothing more for that.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I wouldn't call this game perfect, but it's pretty close for me. I wanted to rate this a 9.8. Since I cannot, I will give it a 10 because it is closer to a 10 than a 9. There IS the occasional glitch (as with most games), but the only thing that really takes me out of the experience is when Ellie will run out in front of the enemies and they will not see her at all! These moments remind you that you're playing a game and take you out of the experience.

    Other than that, the story is absolutely top notch, the acting is top notch. One of the most engaging experiences I've ever played. (and I've been gaming since around the age of 3 back in '83!) The combat is underpowered in comparison to other games, but I LOVE that. It really gives a sense of fear and dread as you move along in the game. It really emphasizes the need for stealth. I would recommend this game to almost anyone, except for those who just absolutely loathe stealth games. Even then, you should give it a shot at least for the story and acting. The first 10 minutes will make at least a tear come to your eye. If it doesn't, then you probably aren't human.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The last of us is an amazing game where we found a wonderful story plus a playability really good in 2013. Also i can forget the sound, which gives a dark aura the game.

    The story told how a mercenary, called Joel, must guard a girl ,called Ellie, that the fungus cure by a EEUU bleaked.

    I´m not afraid to say that this game has the best begining that i have seen in a game, telling the beginings to apocalipsis, and the sadness that we feel when see the Sarah's death (Joel´s daughter), and like this develop the fury and little trust of Joel to the human race.

    The Joel and Ellie´s is amazing as a father and a daughter, and for this is that the player can understand the Joel´s reaction in the end.

    The second caracters are very amazing, reflecting the pandemia horror.

    TLOU came late in the PS3's lifespan but it was worth the wait! The graphics are superb, of course, and the gameplay is smooth and streamlined. But it's the story and the way it is presented that make this game a one-in-a-million. It's thrilling and emotionally engaging. And you fall in love with these characters, especially Joel and Ellie. The (voice) acting is breathtaking. A masterpiece!

This was the first game that I played had a relationship which was so convincingly done but the factor that earns a 10 from me is that, in the end it has you murder people who are wanting to save the world for your own selfish cause and you actually feel ok about it after the credits roll.

    The Last of Us is truly a cinematic masterpiece in video gaming. The production and competence from the people behind the scenes elevates this game beyond even some movies and tv shows.

The story of a manThe Last of Us is truly a cinematic masterpiece in video gaming. The production and competence from the people behind the scenes elevates this game beyond even some movies and tv shows. The acting from the cast is incredible and truly is award winning, and the story they're involved in puts both the characters and the player in harrowing and disturbing situations. The story of a man transporting a teenage girl through a post-apocalyptic America works because the interaction and chemistry between the two is excellent. The gameplay works fluently as well, with the UI not getting in the way of what is happening. All of the player's actions in game happens in real time, which means that the game doesn't pause when you're sorting through your bag and crafting or swapping weapons. It just adds to the dreadful gameplay and forces the player to act fast. The different enemies give alternating methods of confronting levels. Humans move faster but are easily vulnerable, while infected are slow but are harder to kill and deal more damage at a closer range. With the different enemy types included, it keeps the player on their toes. The pacing doesn't let go of the player's interest, making both the plot and gameplay moving consistently. The only pacing issue I have is early on, right after the prologue, where it feels like the plot doesn't move at the speed or works as wonderfully as it should be. However, it's only a brief period of around 45 minutes, but it should still be mentioned. The ending evokes emotions and themes rarely brought up and questions the player's morality and thinking, which makes for a great ending. The game also comes with a multiplayer with a surprising amount of layers to the gameplay and design. It involves a lot of teamwork and communication with gunfights that feel desolate and tense, giving it a realistic feeling of what would probably happen in real life. In conclusion, The Last of Us is a one of a kind video game that deserves all the praise it gets. With its excellent singleplayer and surprisingly fun multiplayer, this is absolutely a must have for everyone.… Expand

    The Last of Us represents the pinnacle of the 7th Gen consoles. Visuals and audio were bar none, and the storytelling was unmatched. While the gameplay wasn't perfect, the story alone makes this game a must play for anyone who owns a PS3 or PS4 (the remastered version).

    If only the second game lived up to this absolute monument to gaming. While the story is nothing ridiculously exciting (apocalyptic zombie game with a search for a cure), what makes this game great is the relationship between Joel and Ellie, the tense and fitting gameplay, and one of the best multiplayers out.

    The Last of Us is a great action-adventure game that manages to capture the feeling of post-apocalypse and survival. The story is alright but way too manipulative and borrows heavily from other, better, material. Still the segmented survival gameplay and the amazing audiovisual production makes the game an experience everybody should check out.

    Despite the breakneck pace of the prologue, it takes quite a while for The Last of Us to pick up some speed again. However, once the cold harsh winter arrives, the action (and story) ramps up. So much so, it puts most Hollywood productions to shame. [July 2013, p.76]
