    Excellent game!
    Why not 10/10?
    - trophies: I enjoyed this game one time. I don't want to start again and again for trophies. Seriously. Stop this. Make a platinum with one-play! There is so much to do: challenges, discover the world etc.

    Este juego se encuentra en mi TOP5 de esta generación. No le pongo un 10, que se lo podría merecer solo por su historia, pero la inteligencia artificial del juego y lo lineal que es hace que no sea el juego perfecto. Criticable puede ser el exceso de cinemáticas.

    One of the best PS3 game ever. But, only if you want to watch good movie. If you want to play... at least you've Demon’s Souls, right?
    Anyway, you will get from 6 to 15 hour of superb cut-scene, good story and moderate game-play.

    a great game with a good plot where the story of a father and daughter is told, though not native, but in the end she becomes her own.

Una que perdurará por siempre y se ha ganado con méritos propios su lugar en el Olimpo de los grandes clásicos. Porque si bien es cierto, Uncharted 4: A Thief End es la consagración de un estilo en la historia de Naughty Dog, The Last of Us es el punto de partida de una compañía que decidió ir un paso más allá y regalarnos una verdadera obra de arte, esas joyas imperecederas que sin importar el transcurrir de los años, seguirán marcando generaciones enteras, y al igual que otras grandes títulos en el pasado, establece bases firmes en los argumentos de que los videojuegos, más que mero entretenimiento de alta calidad, son verdaderas obras de arte. Porque eso, al final del camino, es The Last of Us. Una obra de arte. Una jodida y hermosa obra de arte.

    Was very affected by that game when it came out, but tried to play a week ago and it didn't pass the test of time for me, AI seems too dumb (not sure I'm entitled to give it a lower mark bc of that, but I just did)

    As linear as it gets and with arguably quite clunky controls (and meme-worthy AI), but this game is completely carried by the story and characters. For those alone it's worth a high score. The interesting world is a bonus, but the post-apocalypse setting isn't exactly new ground. Definitely worth playing now that it's so cheap.

    Best game for last 10 year. Story about "zombie wasteland" sound not so fresh but not in this game, when i've played first time it's been like "BOOM" my mind was explode, i mean all i seen before wasnt real game, the last of us showd me how game must look. 10 for story and 9 for gameplay. I love SONY becouse they know what i need.

    The Last of Us has compelling characters, great gameplay, and a beautiful world to explore, but they never really coalesce into something greater than the sum of its parts.

    Made me cry, made me smile , made me believe that even if you are an old man you still can kick ass, one of my favourites, worth every buck, it's like a classic movie you can go back to and even better than most of the movies out today.

The friendship of the two characters, backed by a top of the line voice acting, is very interesting. What is sad to see is what they have done with the part 2, this game should have ended in part one.

    Great game. I feel like it might have been a bit overhyped because I spent years hearing about it and then when I finally played it, it wasnt as amazing as everyone said it was. Although, it may just be me and I may be at fault for creating hype for myself that would obviously lead to disappointment after.

    A masterclass in video game storytelling.

The Last Of Us is the next big step for Naughty Dog after Uncharted, and its a showcase of everything they've learned making Uncharted, channeled into a new IP. The storytelling is better, the gameplay is more varied, and the character interactions and world building are so well done its easy to get attached to the world and the characters in it, despite how unforgiving that very same world is.

    The gameplay while tense, can be pretty unfair in regards to the enemy placements. Perhaps some players will enjoy the feeling that death is always around the corner, but getting killed by the tiniest mistake is a bit overly oppressive for my taste, going to near perfectionist lengths at some points. This difficulty is made a bit worse because the aiming controls are a bit clunky, making players take longer to successfully aim at enemies, thus more likely to get hit.

    Despite the game mechanics being just fine in my eyes, it is still absolutely worth putting up with for the story. Like I said, that is the best part of the game and what makes this game stand out so well in a age of cinematic video games. It knows when to be dramatic, when to show you the few glimmers of hope left in the world, and more importantly, when to stay silent and let a scene breathe, which takes skill to do. The ending in particular is a masterclass of storytelling, leaving itself in a shocking but logical place, with plenty of room for player interpretation, which I really liked.

    Is a zombie apocalypse an original idea? No. Is a father/daughter story an original idea? No. Its the quality in which this is all done. The love and care placed into the environment, story and characters that shines through and gives an experience that is hard to ever forget. Last Of Us is not an original idea. And yet its a masterpiece all the same.    … Expand

    Joel is dead. And that's a damn shame. :( He is a very interesting character to play as. A very nuanced character.

    So, in honor of Joel, I decided to play this game a certain way since the moment I first played this last year. Yes, I am new to the Last Of Us. It came out when I was in Middle School in 2013. So when I got to play it this last year, it was by the time news leaked that    Joel is dead. And that's a damn shame. :( He is a very interesting character to play as. A very nuanced character.

    So, in honor of Joel, I decided to play this game a certain way since the moment I first played this last year. Yes, I am new to the Last Of Us. It came out when I was in Middle School in 2013. So when I got to play it this last year, it was by the time news leaked that Joel would die in the sequel. Whelp, I'd hold up my hands in protest to that story decision, but I can't do that, so instead I just refuse to play the new game. But, in the mean time, I decided to play the game a certain way...

    I decided to play the game as a perma-death game... Because I hate myself.

    Basically, every-time I died I would have to start the game all over again. Yes... From the very. very. beginning.

    This made the game 100 times more challenging and frustrating for me. It also made it 100 times more scary. Because there was always that looming threat of dying and starting over.

    This has aggravated me so much, but you know what...it's the funnest way for me to play.

    I will say now that I do not typically play games on hard mode, this game is no exception, I play on easy mode so I can crush enemies with my fists like Khelgar Ironfist.

    So the game is at it's easiest setting, but It's an if you die, game over scenario, so there's the challenge.

    It's actually been really fun, and I actually think it, weirdly enough, enhances my enjoyment of the game... so far...

    yeah, I haven't beaten it yet.    … Expand

    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]
