    With more than 1000 games I played in my life since 1987, this game is in my top 5. I have never seen anything like this. It's just unbelievably beautiful, the scenes are breathtaking, the character models and animations feel alive, the story is moving and dramatic. I finished it yesterday and still can't believe how perfect the game is. I feel sorry for those people who bombed theWith more than 1000 games I played in my life since 1987, this game is in my top 5. I have never seen anything like this. It's just unbelievably beautiful, the scenes are breathtaking, the character models and animations feel alive, the story is moving and dramatic. I finished it yesterday and still can't believe how perfect the game is. I feel sorry for those people who bombed the negative reviews (without playing it in most cases) for such an awesome game like this. There are no better words for the game: UNBELIEVABLE, MASTERPIECE.

    Dear Naughty Dog! Thank you so much for this extraordinary experience. Please continue your hard work, don't let the negative people influence your decisions. Do what you think is right in your future games.

    Part II cements this franchise as one of the greatest in gaming through it's story alone and by enhancing pivitol events of it's successor. The rationships and intertwining stories among these characters is a rollercoaster of emotions unlike any other.

The rationships and intertwining stories among these characters is a rollercoaster of emotions unlike any other. The overall story is a devestating yet beautiful tale of loss that continues to haunt me weeks after completion. The gameplay is visceral and gory enough to scratch any players craving for intense combat in this dog eat dog world (Which is graphically the most gorgeous I have ever witnessed in any game closely matched by 2018's RDR2.... maybe). ND has once again outdone themselves and I immensely look forward to whatever gem they decide to give us next!! Expand

    Phenomenal Game. I have never been so emotionally moved by a game before. You should play the WHOLE game and do not quit or judge it prematurely. Play it yourself and create you're own opinion of this game.

    Either you understand and love it or you don't and hate it. Even if you disagree with the story's direction it's still one of the most beautiful games ever made with A.I. that is smarter than any I've ever seen, the music is great, and gameplay is tense with tons of action. The gameplay should be what you judge it on else the story should come 2nd and the gameplay is amazing.

    We know the bad reviews come from people who haven't played the game. You'd have to be braindead to actually play throught the whole thing and still give it less than a 7/10.

    Es un juego sensacional, no le hagan caso a las malas críticas, la mayoría de ellas vienen de personas que no terminaron el juego o ni lo tienen. La campaña juega con tu mente y sentimientos de una forma excepcional

    I know that some things doesn't go the way we want in the game but it's relatable with real life too cause see life's not a fairy tale where everyone is happy there's no problem it doesn't happen like that so this game is also like that only it's just the gamers who are not accepting that fact.....

    I personally loved this game. Yes it does some stuff different to what the first game did but overall i believe it worked, this game is not as simple as the first one instead it is much more of a personal journey from two opposing perspectives which drives home the message that there are no hero's in this world, only the ones who get out alive and those who don't.

    Perfect, tense and gratifying gameplay.
    Beautiful exploration.
    The best story I ever watched.
    The way it expands, improves and mimics the beats of the first game. At the same time, a completely different approach to storytelling.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The game is phenomenal. I understand most most people won't have the same experience, game offers big areas to explore, the story is well written, didn't like the idea of playing a new character that was portrayed at the start as a horrible character, but once you play as this new character I began to understand her role in the game more. The game was well written as well as the characters, the graphics are amazing slot of detail in the small things. Going to play this over and over again. Epic follow up to the first game. Hopefully when the Deva are ready they will make a 3rd. Expand

    No spoilers! Honest review of a TLOU fan

    I don't get the hate this game is getting. Yes, sometimes the walking distances are a lot and it can seem a bit much for this game, but I really enjoyed the fact that they kept the gameplay really close to the original. I even stopped sometimes to enjoy the scenery in this game, because it is really good.

    I am a huge fan of part 1 so I couldn't wait to play part 2 after 7 years. I just finished the story yesterday, avoided all of the spoilers, trailers and leaks because I wanted to experience the story from beginning to end without knowing what I would get myself into. The story is, just like part 1, really good. It isn't as simple as people claim it is, it goes a lot deeper and real fans of the game can tell. I would definitely recommend to play this game and experience it for yourself. Forget about the hate this is getting and just enjoy it. People are just whining about the fact the story didn't go as they wanted it to go, but that's what makes it so beautiful, it is just unpredictable sometimes. Everything makes sense if you played part 1 about a dozen times like I have. Just try the game and relax, don't worry about the long travel time sometimes, if you think that is boring you could put the difficulty level up for a challenge, or turn it down to just race through it so you can carry on with the story.

    If one thing is sure, the game did what its intentions are. People are hating on it because of how much they care for the characters. They took the time to give it a bad rating just because they don't like the way the story goes, but they forgot that this isn't an interactive story, it is a experience, just like part 1. If you're not just an empty headed, low IQ nerd who just likes to play Minecraft, play this game (after you play part 1!) and enjoy the story it's telling.

    If the last of us part 1 was a 11/10, the last of us part 2 would be a 10/10, not on the same level, but still one hell of a good game!

    The Last of Us Part II is the high point of the PlayStation 4. The plot is controversial, but the game is the incredibly addictive adventure of Ellie, from which it is impossible to pull away from the opening and to the very end.

    Not everyone is going to enjoy the motives of The Last of Us Part II. But if you try and manage to accept the subliminal and not so subtle messages as a fact that the world has gone awry and that people have the need to have somewhere or someone to belong to as their own way out, then... You will witness the boundaries of gaming expand. You will witness a true masterpiece.

    If you loved the original for its great characters and well-paced story – stay away from this game. However, if you’re aching to sink into the depths of depression, or just want to cut some throats and burn some zombies – Part II will deliver. [Issue#247, p.72]
