    Incredible story. (My favorite from any videogame.) Great gameplay. The harder difficulties keep it challenging. Makes you really hoard supplies since they are not around as much. Easily my all-time favorite game.

    Replay value not that good but then again you only need to play it once to appreciate the work that has gone into it. The storyline and acting are amazingly done. You get really drawn into the story and relationship of the characters. Some gameplay mechanics (aiming, taking cover etc) could do with an overhaul.

    A great story. Very, very cool story. The level of empathy for the characters is ultimate. Excellent gaming experience! The atmosphere of the game is mesmerizing and makes you play without stopping from the screen!
    If you still have not played this game - you missed a lot!

    This game simply has no equal. It is AMAZING!!!!. Beautiful graphics, awesome gameplay and sound. The violence has me going 'wow' everytime. The multiplayer is very much alive and i never have to wait for more than 30 seconds to 1 min to join a session. ONE OF THE BEST GAMES OF ALL TIME.

    The single-player game is somewhat overrated. The story is good, but too much of the game-play is just plain boring. Half the time you’re either locating an object to move from point A to point B or just exploring every nook and cranny of a building looking for supplies. However, the multi-player is SUPERB, the general idea is that it emphasizes team play rather than your usual COD styleThe single-player game is somewhat overrated.

    A very good game overall. Has a great story. I really enjoyed it. On the other hand i found it a bit short and aiming in a intense fight was sometimes a bit hard to control and led to some awkward deaths :D

    The Last of Us Remastered was one of the first games I've ever played on PS4. It was recommended by a friend of mine. Unfortunately, at first time I didn't understand how great the game was, but after playing a few hours I realized how wrong I was. You will take control of two characters who attempt to survive in a postapocalypse world. It's everything you need to know about story.

You will take control of two characters who attempt to survive in a postapocalypse world. It's everything you need to know about story. Ah, also, they are like a father and a daughter, but it is not true. The gameplay is pretty interesting for discussing. It's not an interactive movie, as some people consider. It's an usual game, but it's so cinematic, right. The dialogues were just awesome, no words needed for describing it. I can't stop saying that TLoU has pretty well-sounding soundtrack, graphics, etc. Frankly speaking, I consider that The Last of Us is the main exclusive Sony has got. Seriously. The Order is pretty good, Untill Dawn is great too, but this one will make you buy the console. Only this game, as I think. In a nutshell, it is a masterpiece. Expand

    Great game. Can't wait for the remake PC version later this year! It's overall great and atmospheric game, i just have to completely ignore that part 2 exists, because otherwise part 1 becomes meaningless. Part 2 was awful, one of the worst stories in gaming. But yea, hype for remake on PC!

    I couldn't play the PS3 version so I was excited to learn it was coming to PS4. This is one of the best games I have ever played! Great story! Everything about this game is solid. Naughty Dog did a wonderful job with The Last Of Us. I wouldn't mind a part 2 if it were going to be released. Excited to play Uncharted 4 after playing this. If you haven't played this, please give it a chance.

    You know how I can tell a game is great? Because I didn't like it at all and still admit it that it's a great title. I tried it because I succumbed to the hype. I don't like linear, interactive movie style games. That's why I never bothered with Uncharted. But I don't have to like a game to acknowledge how good it is. Last of Us is more than a game...it's an achievement.

These elements are polished of the highest order and there aren't many games with this level of presentation and execution. TLOU discredits itself slightly with poor AI and stealth mechanics which can affect the cleanliness of the core gameplay but overall, this is just a minor gripe in what is one of the best games of the last decade. 60fps and the enhanced visuals improve the experience over what was already a stunningly impressive game and it runs perfectly throughout.

    If you've owned TLOU previous; there probably isn't enough here to warrant another play-through unless you are dedicated to the multiplayer aspect or just want to own a piece of history all on one disk including the DLC and other extras. This is a must-buy for newcomers but for £40; existing owners may want to wait until the price drops to experience this wonderful game again.

The game quite simply blew me away. The characters and their interactions are believable and well-written, the gameplay is fluid and allows for multiple approaches to a situation and the graphics, art and music all have high production values and look/sound great. To me it wasn't so much a game as an experience that used cinematic storytelling. The criticism some level at this game, claiming it has 'no gameplay' and is basically one giant cutscene, is incredibly hyperbolic and makes me suspect they either haven't played the game or are just hating on it for no reason. The game doesn't have that many cutscenes at all and they are usually not more than 1 or 2 minutes. I was never annoyed or felt like the pacing of the game suffered from any cutscenes. It used them a lot more sparingly than some other games I've played on PS4, such a tomb raider and infamous second son.

    In conclusion: 10/10, must-get for PS4 if you haven't played it before.

    One of those games that you know you will be sad when it ends. A really solid 9 from me. The story/graphics/characters/voice acting all weary well made. The only thing is a AI isn't perfect and weapons crafting/gathering a bit unrealistic and irritating. Naughty dog just makes damn good games... I am looking forward to uncharted 4.

Marvel as a few tiny details that you wouldn't notice at all unless somebody told you it was upgraded. Relive the Masterpiece that won more Game Of The Year Awards than Super Mario Galaxy and Ocarina Of Time combined by having none of that silly gameplay or imagination and more story about dirty depressed people getting their lives F***ed up. Speaking of Ocarina of Time, if you thought the Water temple from Ocarina Of Time was a mindf**k, prepare for the mind bending puzzles in The Last Of Us, such as moving that same ladder to the same spot in the same way over and over again. Good game design? Who needs it when you can get perfect 10s by having a story that is the video game equivalent of Oscarbait? Gaze in absolute awe as you watch the same stealth takedown a million times, because with the oil tanker full of money that Sony gave Naughty Dog to make this game, they couldn't spring for more than one stealth kill animation. They say that games are getting dumbed down for the casual gamers nowadays, but I strongly disagree. At one point in this game, I only had like 30 bullets. If that's not what you call hardcore survival gaming, then I don't know what is. People also say that its just "Another zombie game" which is ridiculous because they're not zombies. Its clearly explained that they are a fungal spore, and the fact that they all act exactly like zombies is not important. Why have interesting level design when you can shepherd the player along linear corridors because you wouldn't want them to get lost on their way to the next cut scene, and have all the fights take place in arenas made of conveniently placed boxes and shipping containers like the new Metal Gear Solid game if Hideo Kojima was on Ambien for the entire development process. Clunky shooting gameplay? In a zombie game? Who cares, it adds tension, I mean Resident Evil does it, right? Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying The Last Of Us is comparable to Resident Evil, The Last Of US has nowhere near achieved the legacy of Resident Evil, mostly because it hasn't spawned sequel after quality degrading sequel... Yet anyway... Your companion AI often breaks immersion by running around mindlessly without alerting the enemies, but again who cares because story. To once more bring up Resident Evil, I wish they had made Ellie able to be seen, but you have the option to shove the little brat in a trash bin until the adult stuff is taken care of. Again, people like to complain that Cinematic games like The Last Of Us are for casuals and are a cancer to the gaming industry, but I like to say they are made for people who want different experiences from games, like somebody who watches movies for the set design. Cinematic experiences are amazing in games, why use the power in that Next Gen console to make games with huge open worlds or give the game more dynamic AI when you can use it to replicate movies? Furthermore, why let a game's gameplay influence your experience with and feelings toward it,? I definitely won't miss moments like in Twilight Princess when I first stood on the cliff overlooking Lake Hylia, the guitar track playing a solemn melody, as I stared at a dark but beautiful world, ravaged by an ongoing struggle for the Triforce, I, the lone hero sent to save it. Screw that, I'd much rather the game yell "THIS IS HOW YOU SHOULD BE FEELING AND WHAT YOU SHOULD BE EXPERIENCING" at me with the subtlety of Nic Cage in a French art film. Its not like video games are the one artistic medium that allow you to interact and effect the outcome of the actions being portrayed on screen (Well besides maybe a choose your own adventure novel). One probably wonders why every game doesn't take as much control as possible out of the players hand so they can watch all the interesting stuff happen in a cutscene they can't interact with in anyway. Overall, The Last Of Us is a great story, with a so-so game buried deep within it. That equates to a Great game overall that is better than the sum of its parts and not a masterpiece like everybody says it is. But my opinion is moot anyway, seeing as everybody else is just going to give it a 10 so why did I even bother? Expand

    Basically, the game is still brilliant and remains the measuring stick for it's genre of game. If you havn't played it before and you've got a PS4 then it's a no brainer, you simply MUST play it. The big question is whether you should buy it if you already own it on PS3. What you're getting apart from the obvious improved graphics is all the DLC and a making of documentary. Really this is down to the individual whether you think these extras make it worth buying again. But the game itself? Peerless!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I've played it only for three hours, but most reviews are written by guys who've seen the game on yt, so whatever. I was greatly amused by a sudden plot twist at the end of prologue. Shooting reeks, but graphics are really nice and frame rate is decent. I'm not entirely happy with the narrative approach, which seems to be The Walking Dead soap-opera style, but at least voice acting is great.
    PS. I've seen an episode of WD once. Two women were washing clothes in a river. Then one solitary zombie was killed in a non-spectacular way, and at episode's end everyone gathered in a room and cried together.

    The Last of Us has ruined games for me. Since playing this masterpiece, nothing has come close to meeting the high expectations for narrative scope and world design that the developers Naughty Dog have set.
    I'll begin with the one negative I can genuinely think of for this game: The weapon choice for the flamethrower seems a bit out of place and its inclusion towards the end doesn't really make sense. That's it. Pretty minor, and when the only criticism you have for a game is that there's a **** flamethrower in it, you know you're playing something pretty good.
    Onto the positives:
    1. The story, whilst it's been done a thousand times before, feels fresh, and you genuinely don't know where it's going at all. It's pacing is perfect, with massive, adrenaline fuelled bosses/set pieces juxtaposed with moments of tranquillity, just to explore the world. The way it's told doesn't miss a beat through it's 13-16 hour run time. An emotionally gripping tale topped with a somewhat bittersweet finale.
    2.The world that's been crafted is one of the finest in all of gaming, as it portrays a barren society through its dilapidated buildings and overgrown vegetation whilst keeping the sense that this world was once inhabited. The areas you traverse are varied and interesting, encouraging exploration into every nook to discover another artifact that pieces the story together.
    3. The characters are all very engaging, however the two that the story focuses on, two survivors brought together by circumstance, have an unmatched level of depth and chemistry. Their relationship grows and dwindles and breaks and reforms multiple times throughout the story, with the excellent voice acting and motion capture for these two making their trials and tribulations feel authentic. You want to root for these two, but at times you'll question whether you should.
    4. The gameplay plays second fiddle to the story, however the immersion of the combat drags you deeper into the world by making you carefully craft items and hoard ammo from a limited amount of supplies found throughout the world. This makes you scavenge for more ways to survive, and also shapes the way you enter fights, with the constant danger of being without ammo always just one mistimed shot away. The human enemies encountered are standard, but the two main zombies (Infected as they're referred to) fought add terror and variety to proceedings. They make you use stealth, craft bombs and keep your distance because confronting them is so distressing. Action sequences are pulsating and nerve wracking at once, the way they should be.
    5. The musical score is immense, nothing more to add.
    6. The DLC is pretty awesome and adds an overall insight into one of gaming's best child characters, Ellie, as we see her touching yet inevitably tragic back story unfold.
    7. The online multiplayer is more enjoyable than expected. Whilst I wouldn't buy the game solely for it, it offered a few more fun hours with the combat mechanics.

    To conclude, The Last of Us is the best game I have ever played. It's gripping, heartbreaking, eye opening and stunning all at the same time. A masterpiece, a game that hopefully proves what impact video games can have on the entertainment medium. Play it right now.

And the main focus is a multiplayer that indefinitely extends play-time. I never thought a story focused game would be worth the full price but again this game is. The story sucks you in and makes you care about the characters. I was so involved that i was having to step back and take in just how much i was emotionally involved. Im cynical as hell and never believed this game could even be close to as good as advertised. I didnt buy on PS3; playing something else. And thank god...the remastered version comes with all DLCs so my first experience was even better. I probably wouldnt have bought this game either if i wasnt looking for a PS4 game but im so glad i did. Also the multiplayer isnt just tacked on. Multiplayer play is really unique and lot of fun to play. I couldnt believe how many peeps who played this on the PS3 couldnt wait to pay $60 again to play on PS4. Final words...Do not buy another game until you play this. You will love it. Believe the hype and get this game. Its the best game for the PS4 easy. This is written in middle November and nothing released beats it. Get this game NOW, its so addictive, satisfying, suspenseful, challenging, innovative, emotional and frickin fun. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Played On: Hard

    While The Last of Us delivers a superb story, it's held back by some questionable gameplay mechanics that seem to keep it from being an entirely satisfying experience. More often than not, the game forces players into combat situations that feel arbitrarily set in place. While sneaking past enemies is certainly a mainstay in the game, at times it will throw unexpected enemies at the player that cannot be avoided, forcing a fight.

    While this wouldn't be such an issue in certain other games, it does take one out of the seriousness of the story itself when you are forced to have Joel run up and brawl several enemies to death. This, mixed with the lack of ammo one will find later on (despite the fact you can stealth kill individuals who are equipped with fully loaded guns and they drop nothing) ends up making the game feel like a brawl-a-thon which is clunky and boring.

    Mechanics aside, the story is what really shines through. While the overall story arc itself isn't particularly unique or interesting, what makes the game are the characters. Ellie is perhaps one of the best female leads in a video game in history, while Joel, often called "Tex" by his partner earlier in the story, really sells the hard-ass survivor, and his character arc is one of the best I've seen in recent media story-telling. However, a chapter near the middle that starts off interesting begins to feel as if it demands too much time for too little pay-off, with its finish eliciting a sigh of relief rather than a fond farewell.

    Overall, while the story itself is quite enjoyable, primarily the characters themselves, it begins to drag in one of the middle chapters before picking up once again in the next, and the gameplay mechanics begin to feel like a detriment rather than a benefit half-way to three-quarters of the way through it. This, mixed with an ending sequence that felt too fast and easy, leaves one realizing that the greatness of this game isn't in its gameplay.

    I have been a gamer for a long time in my life, i have played a lot of games in my time, there has been some games that still in my mind is incredible, both in direction, art, soundtrack and story!

    That said, it is now 3 months ago since i completed The Last of Us on PS4, which is the first time i played it, and still to this day, the entirety of the game still chills my bones, sometimes it just hits me, without warning, about how this game made me feel, and still makes me feel although i don't play it anymore!

    The story hit hard, and it hit good, and still i am in awe of this game!

    Not only does the core game mechanics work super well, the level and art design hit the ball out of the park on this one!

    It had a satisfying, albeit disturbing and emotional beginning, middle, and an end.

    The feeling i got when i played the game, and to this day, still haunts me. It almost haunts me so much, that i don't wanna play the game again, cause it was so intense, and it felt so very very true!

    Games and Movies are a high passion for me, and i always seek storytelling perfection, as there are many many games and movies i love, The Last of Us is the one that hit me the most!

    I cannot express exactly how i feel about this game, cause it's ineffable for me!

    Hands down!!! The best game, i have EVER, played!

    I deep down wish so much, that i could shake Neil Druckmann's hand, and thank him and his team, for a story of a lifetime, that you have given me. I will probably never forget what this game made me feel!

    If you haven't bought it and played it yet, shame on you, cause this is a masterpiece of a game that any passionate gamer should have in his arsenal!

    I got the Last of Us around the time it came out but never managed to find the time to finish it. The game has amassed many accolades and awards from critics and is considered one of the greatest games of all time. I was finally able to find the time to finish it.

The game has amassed many accolades and awards from critics and is considered one of the greatest games of all time. I was finally able to find the time to finish it. The Last of Us even still in 2016 is one of the best PlayStation exclusives I have ever played. The Last of Us is an action survival game developed by Naughty Dog well know for the Uncharted series. Hearing that the game took place in a post-apocalyptic zombie setting my hopes went down. The post-apocalyptic zombie genre is beginning to get real stale and old. People have compared this game to the Walking Dead TV series that I have no inclination in watching. For this review I will try to push aside all my views on the genre and focus instead on the game and explain why I am able to like this game but still not like the genre it is in.
    The Last of Us was made a few years ago back in 2013 at the end of 7th console generation. I will be reviewing the remastered version on PS4 which looks surprisingly beautiful and breathtaking for a post-apocalyptic setting. Instead of creating a generic desert wasteland setting the Last of Us features a variety of unique environments from collapsed cities and suburbs where plants and nature are returning to flourish, stunning mountains full of trees rivers and wildlife to snowy locations up in the mountains. The graphics have also aged surprisingly well but do not look as impressive as some of the current 8th generation game engines. How well the graphics have held up his a testament to the fact that photo-realistic graphics can be just as stunning if not better than stylized ones.The game features limited types of enemies which include infected zombies and bandits and raiders and the occasional soldiers. I found the infected design better than most zombie designs because of the fact that they are infected by a fungal infection based off of the real life fungal infection that happens to insects called cordyceps. I found the zombie enemies still unexciting and uninspired and I felt they could have done more with the fungal infection theme. I find zombies a repetitive uninspired enemies that are too prevalent in the game industry. I found the raider encounters tense and exciting especially the encounters in the winter section of the game. Overall the Last of Us offers an impressive presentation that will not be forgotten excusing the boring zombie enemies.
    Story wise the Last of Us tells an unforgettable story that you will not forget. I found the story so enjoyable that I recommend playing this game for the story alone. The Last of Us stars the main characters of Joel and Ellie. I found them some of the most well developed characters in a video game period. I don’t want to spoil the story at all because it is that good. All I will say is that the game takes place during the aftermath of a zombie apocalypse in the U.S. The goal is to escort Ellie a 13 year old girl who is immune to the virus to the lab of the Fireflies a terrorist organization that fights against the now remaining U.S. government which has become militarized. The story will keep you on edge as you watch Ellie and Joel travel across the country trying to survive. By the end of the game you will gripping your controlling hoping that Ellie and Joel can make it out alive. My favorite character by far is Ellie and I found her to be entertaining, sympathetic, and funny all at the same time. I found the ending satisfying and encompasses the tone of the game.
    The Last of Us offers fun innovative gameplay that helps add to game's narrative and graphics. The Last of Us uses the standard survival gameplay system. The game uses stealth and a crafting system where combat is done with an over the shoulder perspective. The game also has the occasional boss fights as well. The gameplay is nothing to write home about yet its simplicity is its beauty. The gameplay allows the player to experience the story and atmosphere without being interrupted. I found the melee combat nice and crunchy and allows the player to feel every painful brutal attack you give to each enemy. The gameplay adds to brutal nature of the story by having the player engage in guerilla warfare by having the player use handcrafted weapons and basic firearms. I did find some weapons unnecessary such as the flamethrower and automatic weapons. They take away from the survival nature of the combat and turn it into a generic over the shoulder shooter like most games. The Last of Us delivers in making tense survival gameplay that will keep entertained throughout the game.

    The Last of Us is an essential game that should be played by all Playstation users. The game features atmospheric realistic environments and crafts a story that is so excellent it will be remembered long after finishing the game. The survival gameplay is great but does not quite measure up to the game’s story and atmosphere. I believe that there will never be such a thing as a perfect game but the Last of Us comes extremely close. The game has a few flaws such as the long load times and zombie enemies which I found simplistic compared to the game’s great story and characters. Despite the fact that I do not like the zombie apocalypse genre, I found that The Last of Us a masterpiece. When I finished the game and saw the credits roll I realized that the game was not about the zombies but the human drama instead and what people will do to protect the ones they love.

They could not do justice to this story. At least not in a 1 to 3 hour movie. Perhaps a miniseries, 10 part, 10 hours. Anyway back to the game. The mechanics work just fine, the gameplay is great, the shooting, running, melee, all are top notch. The story grabs you from the start and does not let you go. I am a huge fan of Mass Effect and the development of each character within its story. The Last of Us creates a bond between player and characters like no other game. The entire game focuses on struggle, loss and the human desire to fight on and find any hope you can to drive you. I thought this would be another zombie game...I could not have been more wrong. Sure zombies infest the world, but the real terror is the people. Last of Us captures humanity in all its ugliness, and does it beautifully. I am 42 years old and have played games forever. I remember Zelda, wow, I remember a lot of great titles. Last of Us is truly in the argument for greatest game ever....period. Expand

It becomes quite apparent that what is left of the United States government is corrupt and loves censorship. Anyway, it is really hard to give you much more than that without spoiling a lot. It is not an open world game. Instead it focuses on a more linear approach but at the same time rewards exploring players. You will need supplies and ammunition both of which are very hard to find so make everything count. I also suggest playing on hard your first run through. Normal can be a bit too easy at times. If you own a ps4 or ps3 pick this game up as soon as possible. People will be talking about this game for years to come, and now that The Last of Us part 2 is in the works now is the perfect time to play it. Expand

It makes us all long for someone special to be with, even if it means the end of the world as we know it. That was a quote from the movie 2012 btw.

    original review august rated 10- This game is so good. My nose bled playing it again. While it's not a perfect game due to glitches, poor ai based off squad tactics, enemies with infinite ammo and repeative ai. it's still the most intense single played game i ever played. The graphics are hard to see but their highly detailed , they put out almost everything in singleplayer. I never really enjoyed the running game but playing it on grounded and survival hand to hand combat opened up into a street brawler i never knew about. I died so many times stoned and drunk i can't really remember the story it get's far fetched. If they make another i hope ellie grows some **** and starts acting like a babe. I want to play as myself not an old man, nothing in game would change. The music and sound is unreal it captures the atmosphere perfect.

    Not sure I need to write anything here, I assume everyone who owns a Playstation 4 also owns this game. If you're on Xbox, sell a child. This game will bring you much more memories. Couldn't recommend it more, once in a lifetime game.

    My first experience with this game was the remastered edition on the PS4 and for quite some time it was the most visually stunning game on the console. This game does so many things right that I feel that some of it's faults are easily overlooked. The Game play itself is tense and tight. Every bullet counts, each shiv is important and medication is scare even on the normal difficulty. TheMy first experience with this game was the remastered edition on the PS4 and for quite some time it was the most visually stunning game on the console. This game does so many things right that I feel that some of it's faults are easily overlooked. The Game play itself is tense and tight. Every bullet counts, each shiv is important and medication is scare even on the normal difficulty. The horror of this game is based in the horror of man and the suspense of wading through a clicker filled room not knowing if you'll make it through alive. But by far the most important thing in this game is the story. Now I have to admit the story isn't original, but it is well told. The characters are real and the dialogue believable. The lack of clear villains means each side is seen as human as people trying to make the best of a bad situation, but the game doesn't forget to have some fun, make some jokes and enjoy life. The voice acting and facial animation must be commended as being amazing. Overall this game is an experience with enough challenge to attract people for a multiple playthroughs. Expand

    Un JUEGAZO de Naughty Dog, un estudio de Sony que nunca suele defraudar. Si nunca tuviste la oportunidad de probar The Last Of Us en PS3, ahora puedes con este Remaster en Full HD. Es magnifico, como su juego original, pero graficamente mejor. 10/10 Inprescindible para cualquiera.

    This game is really a masterpiece and an almost perfect single-player campaign.
    + Story
    + Character Development
    + Atmosphere
    + Environment Representation
    + Stealth Challenge
    + Survival Mechanism
    + BGM & Sound Effect
    - Bad trophy and post-game design
    - Lots of trophy-related glitches kept unfixed

    Was great to experience it remastered on the PS4.

    The story, the gameplay, the characters, the music, all combined together put out my favourite game in my entire lifetime. It was truly a once in a lifetime experience playing this game. The gameplay and story complimented each other in such an unique way and gave such an immersing experience.

    Truly 10/10. A complete masterpiece.

    This game is art. Everything from the graphics to the gameplay feel top notch and is unfortunately a rare experience in these current times. Let me start with the story, It is rich and exotic the characters actually feel alive and everything they do to what they think can be a serious note.

Everything from the graphics to the gameplay feel top notch and is unfortunately a rare experience in these current times. Let me start with the story, It is rich and exotic the characters actually feel alive and everything they do to what they think can be a serious note. In this game you are the remnants of a large virus epidemic that turns people into flesh eating zombie-like monsters. If i were to use a TV show for this comparison i would say The Walking Dead! The plot is great with some twist and turns oh and if you don't do that QTE expect a gory scene to come from there after thanks to the graphics engine the game is able to express the devastation and detail of life after civilization collapsed. This game just gets everything right so anyway anyone tries to use the outbreak for their own gain is demonstrated and most of the time gives you the option to play the hero. The gameplay however is different then almost any game think of it as Dark Soul's difficulty compared to an FPS it is that good. Due to supplies being scarce it is up to you to find ammo and weapons and use them at appropriate times or face an unfortunate end. You are always in constant danger from infected and from hostile human beings. The third person view seems most appropriate and gives it an Uncharted like style with out the Uncharted feel. The game mixes lots of emotions it could get very dark at times, funny or just plain depressing but that is why you play it and it feels true to it's name in addition the games price currently is excellent The Last of Us constantly won game of the year and it is deserving of it %100. Sony has delivered one of PlayStation's most famous games and I hope to see more great experiences from Naughty Dog. Expand

    Easily one of the best survival horror game ever made. The writers of this game should be commended on making such an exceptional script. Slacktivist feminist, this is how you write strong female characters.

    Do i really need to say anything? I don't think that it's possible to not to like this game, you can see by the user-score distribution, almost 4k positive vs 163 mixed and 314 negative, and most of the negative, if you enter on the profile, it's just trolls or Xbox Fanboys that gives 0 to all PS exclusives!
    If your in doubt about it, just forget the doubt and BUY IT! It's fairly cheap,

    The single player experience can be very chalenging as well, if you play it on Grounded mode.

    This game is not one of the best games I've ever played is the best game I've ever played.
    You need to play this game and you don't need a review to know than this game is good.
    I've been playing video games since I was 5 years old and this is a masterpiece.

    I never wrote a review for this game, and with the recent announcement of The Last of Us Part 2, I went back for a replay to see how well the game stood the test of time being as the game is now three and a half years old.

If I had to use one word to some up The Last of Us, that word would be Emotion. Naughty Dog has created a world so believable, so immersive, and absolutely frightening which is a feat unto itself. But its the characters that really make The Last of Us stand out as a true masterpiece of game design. It's not very often that you can connect with the characters of a video game on such a deep and interpersonal way. You feel deeply for the plight of Joel and Ellie. You understand the moral dilemma that they face in a way that even film producers have a hard time getting their audience to emotionalize. The perfect design of the post apocalyptic United States, paired with who in my opinion are the two greatest characters to ever be voiced in a video game along with a soundtrack that can bring tears to your eyes all on its own, and you really start to understand that Naughty Dog has done something special with The Last of Us. Since the original release on PS3 in July 2013 I have played completely through the game twelve times and it never once ceases to amaze. I still cry every time even though I know exactly what is going to happen. I still feel lost in the landscape despite the fact I know exactly where I am going. Another thing I think is absolutely worth mentioning about this game is that despite some very tense moments, you never feel pressured to perform. You don't have to play the game "perfectly", you don't have to master some inane set of skills to help you progress. All you have to do is sit back and play. I like to play the game at night in the darkest room in the house and just sit back and relax and allow myself to be complete transported into the world. If you are tired of first person shooters, tired of RPGs and overly gratuitous action in every video game you play then The Last of Us is worth every last bit of your time and money. If I had to make a list of three video games that were the only games I could play for the rest of my life, then The Last of Us would be near the top. Even if you only every play FPS games. Even if you only play JRPGs, heck...even if you only play card games, I suggest you play The Last of Us. Then, play it again. Expand

    My 2nd favorite game of all time. The story's great, the characters are the best part of the game, and gameplay is great. I'd give it a 98 but that's not an option so I put a 10, the biggest negative is that the stealth gameplay is basic and repititive but you won't notice until the 2nd time playing

    Just beat this is 2017, and have to say its still better then most games since it came out in 2013. It's everything you want in a video game, Great story, great characters, great game-play, and a wonderful yet ominous atmosphere that creates an all around amazing experience. For the cost of the game and what you get out of it its totally worth playing.

    Without a doubt, The Last of Us offers one of the most challenging and beautiful experiences that videogames can offer. With a breathtaking cinematic narrative revolving around a heart-breaking father/daughter-esque plot, you'll be hooked from start to end.

It's hard to call this a "video game" as there's no way this could be categorized in the same group as flipping Pac-Man or Tetris, yet within the story you're given a great amount of classic video-game style mechanics. Shootouts, Boss Battles, Stealth Missions, and excitement aplenty, the focus lies in the story with a fantastic gaming experience built around that; the respect in the aspect of storytelling is evident and everything else is a bonus. Unbelievably so, the game keeps impressing in every chapter, able to one-up itself not only in the horror elements, but also in the emotional satisfaction. It'll break your heart, scare the hell out of you, excite you, and make you unable to stop playing. Expand

    A game where's even walking fun!? I would have given 10 but the last three seasons are super short and rushed. Also the brutality in cutscenes prior to the end of the game is so hideous. It felt more like murder skillkill revue in the last hour or so.

    If there's one thing you can trust naughty dog it's their story telling and deep character development.
    Also this game has one of the best combat and crafting menus.
    I replayed this game several times but never dared to play on a hard level.
    The soundtrack and the post apocalyptic setting is beautifully crafted.
    The game never gets boring because you visit so many different regions.
    If you want an epic game experience with a fantastic crafted story and characters and some (optional stealth but not always possible) combat this game is for you.
    Also I cry every time during the end of the game.

    A post-apocalyptic road trip that offers a fantastic, riveting experience, where destruction and beauty, and hope and despair, get entwined in a way that’s nothing short of genius, The Last of Us is so good that its somewhat repetitive, and occasionally dull gameplay isn’t enough to rob it of its rightful place amongst the video game greats. Therefore, if looking for an unforgettable action-adventure, with strong cinematic sensibilities, and a heavy emphasis in adult, character-driven storytelling, look no further than Naughty Dog’s classic, especially now that the remastered version has made the original even more stunning.
