    The Last of Us Remastered is a great game. Graphics are awesome, Game play is awesome. The only downside of this game for me is the story line. It started great but ended bad, although it may be a hint for a sequel that they might work in the future.

    This game is a must buy for PS4 owners.

    There are often times when I can't, for the life of me, understand why everyone in the western part of our world drools over a particular game.

I believe there's no better example for this as The Last of Us, a title that got tens all around and was praised for its supposedly incredible storyline. Even though I had experienced several sections of the game on a friend's PS3, the PS4 was my first chance to try it for real, and I walked away sorely unimpressed.

    First of all, I fully admit to getting kind of worried whenever a title gets praised more for its story than its actual gameplay. It's the latter that will always matter the most in a game for me, and in this regard The Last of Us is passable at best, extremely forgettable at worst. It consists of a series of linear, quick-time-event-heavy, cover-based shooting stages that get repetitive really fast, with only mild incentives for any kind of exploration.

    Even though the game does feature a lot of actual cutscenes, its gameplay sections are made in such a way that main character Joel is always talking and interacting with other people somehow. I admit I can see how some people would enjoy this playable-movie vibe, but it's definitely not my thing. Often I would just get annoyed when a cutscene would end, just because I knew it meant I'd have to start actually playing. This made me start holding the opinion that The Last of Us would be better suited as, you know, an actual movie rather than a game.

    Speaking of which: yeah, there's a cool story here, with some well-written emotional gut-punches. But unlike what I've read around the web, it's absolutely nowhere near the level of the true storytelling masterpieces of our time, from A Song of Ice and Fire to Breaking Bad to The Sopranos (and yes, I've seen comparisons to all of those). Maybe that's because the script just feels like a known quantity in the time we live in: it has a post-apocalyptic setting (check), a hardened man getting to terms with his own emotions (check), zombie-thingies (check), dialogue sections filled with wise cracks that aren't all that fresh (check). It was just too 'been there, done that' for me, even with the emotional turns, and as a result I never really felt the father-daughter relationship between the main characters as apparently most people have.

    It may be one of those cases in which a game is just not for me, especially because I fully admit I've never been that interested in post-apocalyptic settings and its tropes. Still, just trying to analyse The Last of Us from a detached standpoint, I fail to see why it's had such an extremely enthusiastic reception. I wouldn't say it's a flat-out bad game, but there are numerous realistic-style titles with more fluid and satisfying gameplay, there are numerous non-games with better stories, and it is my honest opinion that this is not one of those cases in which the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.

    I think this is the kind of game that everyone should at least try, if only just to see what the fuss is all about. If your gaming tastes are anywhere close to mine, however, you'll probably get entertained for a while, then start seriously considering just searching for a cutscene compilation on Youtube instead.

The Last of Us has one of the best stories that i've ever experienced. It has some mature themes that no game would dare touch on, it has some heart-breaking moments that will get you really emotional; expect to cry or feel terrible at least once. But one of the key elements to The Last of Us is Ellie. Ellie is by far one of the most realistic characters in any game ever made, her reactions, the way she acts is unlike any video game heroine. The combat is fluid, having to manage your resources while keeping yourself alive. The online multiplayer is really fun as well, the Last Man Standing mode captures the game's feel. The story telling, the combat, the characters, are all nailed so well and so right that it's hard to find anything bad about this game. Seriously, I can't think of a single thing that this game did bad or poorly.

    The Last of Us gets a solid 10/10.    … Expand

    It is definitely the best game I have ever played. The interaction between Ellie and Joel is great and successfully unveils their distinctive personalities. I am glad to have played an apocalyptic game which doesn't focus on the fun of slaughtering zombies, but the struggle to survive among humans and the infected, both mentally and physically.

The opening section of the game is a tense and brilliantly realised outbreak of the “virus”, after this outstanding introduction you are plunged into generic, broken cities – climbing up fire escapes, sneaking in dark abandoned buildings and shooting / shivving “the infected”, who stagger about like a drunk uncle at a party. The environments are populated with textures and graphics that have seemingly been recycled from Naughty Dog’s other work (Uncharted, notably – the same red bricks, the same broken cars, same furniture). It does look impressive though, the lighting and shadows are particularly stunning in parts.
    Wandering around, crouched to reduce noise and detection, before sneaking up on an enemy is well trodden ground by now, as a result the gameplay style is instantly familiar and generic, its hard to find much to be impressed by early on in the game. I found myself plodding through the campaign for a few hours, not entirely certain whether I was enjoying the experience or not, but regardless eager to see where the whole thing was headed.

    Mercifully, the game changes pace when you encounter the Human enemies, which will stop at nothing to hunt you down rather than saunter around like the infected. This makes a more menacing and challenging experience, akin to the manhunt franchise.

    Whilst playing the game I couldn’t help think what the game developers could have done with certain sections. At times it feels like the environments were under used. It wasn’t until about 8 hours in it dawned on me that maybe the omission of more “jumpy”, edge of your seat scares, were perhaps deliberate. It isn’t a typical survival horror game, it is a bleak, miserable and hopeless journey of two people, the enemies are merely incidental antagonists all trying to survive.
    I was only harking back to typical conventions of horror video games because that is what I expected to see, because that is all I have seen in the past.
    As a result, the tearing up of the rulebook means that it reveals itself after about 5 hours as a refreshing experience. Sure, there are some clichéd and terribly contrived sections of games of yore, particularly pushing boxes to climb up onto roofs and walking through dimly lit sewers – but it never cheapens the experience with overly obvious encounters with a slew of bad guys, or unnecessary fetch and find puzzles. It certainly makes up for the lackluster, first few hours of the game.

    Arguably, the most significant and important aspect of the game is the storyline and characters. Last of us certainly stands out from the crowd here. Traditionally video games have terrible writing and poor characterization. Not here, the writing is so accomplished you actually care about the characters backstories and plight. It’s like watching a TV show where you want to know what happens next. I really hope other developers take note of this accomplishment and up their game (no pun intended). The games storyline gradually develops using great pacing, the final quarter of the game is particularly malevolent and completely gripping. It can be an emotional, sometimes harrowing experience; no video game from recent memory has left me with my mouth open in amazement, or given me a level of emotional response like The Last of Us has.    … Expand

    A good game for those who wish to play through an interesting take on the typical zombie apocalypse scenario. However, this game leaves you wanting more due to its somewhat short length and non-replayability outside of a dying multiplayer.

    Great story great visuals great characters. One of the best resource management games ever made. The only complaint I have about this game is that the combat falls short when you are stuck among several enemies. In such situations you mostly find yourself bitten by a zombie from behind while trying to kill the one in front of you!

    Great production values including graphics, sound design, story and characters. However, the game itself just feels boring. Every time it almost feels as if I was trying to grind my way to the next cutscene, and that's not a great feeling to have in a game, especially in a survival horror one. Maybe it's critically acclaimed, sure, but the game for me just didn't do nearly as much.

    Great game overall with a stellar story and voice work, however, the gameplay could have used more fine tuning, because it's not the most satisfying gun combat in the third person shooter genre.

    Forget whether or not combat is good or bad. Forget whether or not the game is hard or easy. The only thing you need to know about this game is that Joel and Ellie will run away with your heart and tell you a story that will change the way you see the potential of video games. The Last of Us could stand on its own as a classic film, but it takes things a step further by allowing you to play a part in the beautiful narrative unfolding in front of you. This game is beautiful in every sense of the word, and if you take the time to invest into its story, you will be rewarded with one of the best gaming experiences of your life.

    If you get The Last of Us, do not think about skipping out on the DLC "Left Behind," because it will add a layer of depth to the original story that is so strong and so important. The DLC, in fact, might even be better than the original game in its own bite-sized way. The two stories absolutely belong together, so please do not leave the DLC behind.

    The Last of Us Remastered is a flawless experience from start to finish. Story, visuals, gameplay, all outstanding.

    If you give this game a shot and enjoy it, it is definitely worth sticking it out for the duration to experience some excellent Naughty Dog story telling, well worth the journey.

The multiplayer on the other hand is a visceral and unrewarding experience and not one that I found enjoyable in the slightest. The various events that can wipe out your accumulated survivors unless certain criteria are met are just ridiculous, but for me, the executions are just too much to handle. The multiplayer is dominated by veterans and the matchmaking always seems to throw a few into the game on each side. Weapon upgrades are lost with each new round so each match seems to reduce to gathering enough supplies to buy upgrades or make items in order to stand a chance. I've only the two online trophies to get but grinding for them has just ruined the whole experience of this game. I will never understand why developers insists on forcing multiplayer down my throat when all I want is an engaging but challenging story mode.… Expand

    The Last of Us is an Action Adventure Survival Horror game that tells the story of Joel and Ellie.
    The United States has been reclaimed by Mother Nature and a fungus has taken over human brains.
    You spend the game getting over every obstacle the world throws at you.
    The World in the last of us is honestly the most well-crafted game world I’ve ever experienced.
    So is the actual game play and the way you interact with the world.
    Really as a game in general, this is perfection, the new standard.
    The world crumbles and breaks around, there’s constant banter and communication between, Joel, ellie, and the other characters you meet along your journey.
    Every character and dialog is so perfectly written.
    They all have their own personality and flavor to them.
    The constant back and forth with conversation and interactions with the world really brings the game to life in a way I’ve never experienced before.
    It feels so refreshingly organic.
    I can’t imagine being okay with anything less in the future from AAA developers.
    The gameplay is fluent, fun, and addictive.
    Though the last of us does a pretty great job of hiding it, at its heart this is a survival horror game, so as you should expect, there are plenty of stressful situations you’ll find yourself in.
    Lucky for you, the crumbling world is at your disposal to ease your stress a bit.
    There’s Is a crafting system in the game, and I know the word crafting can be overwhelming to many, as it is for me, but the crafting is insanely simple, there are only about 5 or so ingredients scattered around for you to pick up to create health kits, bombs, and weapon mods, and all you have to do to craft is hold x.
    Also scattered around are gears you can use at a tool bench to increase the stats on the weapons you’ll gradually find throughout the game.
    But back to the actual execution.
    You can play the last of us in any way you see fit.
    You can stealth your way through slowly, using your enhanced listening skill to spot enemies locations, and slowly sneak up behind them to take them out, or you can run and gun your way through a section mowing everyone down.
    Stealth is always your better option if you aren’t completely sure of enemy locations, otherwise you can find yourself surrounded by the insanely smart AI.
    Unlike most games, ai doesn’t just stick to a path, if they hear something, they will actively pursue you, if you get in a gun fight, they will try to flank and confuse you to try and get behind you and take you out.
    Luckily for you, you have a beast of a sidekick and ellie to help you out of some pretty close calls.
    Thankfully, encounters with enemies is not constant, you frequently get some much needed downtime to scavenge and let your heart settle back into your chest.
    So while the stress is definitely here in the last of us, it is in short bursts to prevent the game from feeling like a chore or a grind.
    The last of us will really take you everywhere.
    Through buildings, through water, the forest, museums, there’s a great adventure and a beautiful world waiting for you to get lost in and conquer.

    After you are done with the games story, you can restart on a new game + or play it’s online multiplayer where you’re pinned up against hunters or fire flies to either interrogate the opposite team to find their lock box or eliminate the other team completely to win the game
    all 3 modes are equally addictive and work the same as single player
    you start out with your customizable perk load out and you scavenge supplies if you choose to do so to further equip your character
    While I personally thought the story in the last of us got weaker and weaker as the game went on, I still can’t deny the fact that the last of us is gameplay and game design perfection from beginning all the way til the end.
    It doesn’t let up, it doesn’t get lazy.
    I’m not a fan of survival horror games, but the last of us has just become my exception.

If it were someone else at the hospital, they may chose to sacrifice Ellie just like Marlene, who even watched Ellie grow up and promised her mother to take care of her.(Although it wasn't easy for her) However, it happens to be Joel who escorted Ellie there. Because of what he had lost 20 years ago and what he had been through with Ellie, he chose to save her the moment knowing she would die, without hesitation. Joel is not a selfless hero, yet a good story doesn't have to end with the salvation of humankind.

    Anyway, this game told us a good story.

    However, the design of some battles is so annoying. I still remember that wall-seeing-through sniper and that after the restaurant, when I was taking out the last hunter in the area by stealth, the game spawned another hunter(along with a few more elsewhere) just on my right side-I think there are better ways to increase the challenge of a battle, instead of forcibly adding enemies.    … Expand

The story, writing and voice acting are all leagues beyond any other game I've played. The two lead characters are charismatic and masterfully developed throughout the course of the game. The music and visuals brilliantly evoke a world with a heady atmosphere of quiet sadness and loneliness. As to the gameplay, many people consider it a weaker aspect, but I found the approach to combat to be original and far more challenging and engaging than other action games. The very limited supplies and powerful enemies mean that every confrontation is consequential, and thus genuinely nerve-racking. There are periods of planning, of nervous tension, and of wild improvisation. I can only think of two criticisms. The first is that these confrontations, along with scavenging, constitute 95% of the gameplay -- some variation in the fundamental style of play from time to time would have been welcome. Secondly, the AI sometimes leaves something to be desired. Allies can get in the way and fatally mess things up; enemies can act in stupid ways making them too easy, such as walking repeated paths or forgetting where you are and searching nonsensical places; and sometimes the enemies can have inconsistent and confusing behaviours, such as detecting where you are when all you did was make a loud distraction elsewhere. These issues are not frequently a large problem though; the gameplay is generally smooth and polished. All in all a very strong 9/10. One of the best games I have ever played.… Expand

The only thing I would change, would be the difficulty. I have finished the game on the maximum difficulty(grounded), and I believe this should be the only option. If you are reading this before playing it, trust me and do yourself a favour, play it on GROUNDED level. Every arrow, every bullet and other junk, will become the greatest treasure and asset of your playstyle and tactic. It will make it as realistic as possible, you will fear every dark place, noise and every enemy can be your last encounter if handled improperly. I have watched the "making of" afterwards, and seeing some of the gameplay in it, made me realised, how much of the real experience people are missing by choosing the easier options... Developers made it really fair, with a little thinking and few tries, you can make it, overcome the impossible. It's about the survival in a post-apocalyptic world where death awaits behind every corner, don't make a point and click game for kids out of it... Anyways, after almost 28 hours of the emotional roller-coaster, it is so hard to shake it off... The ending was great, I am fully satisfied with it.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is basically how this game was made. Bunch of people went into the boardroom and decided they will make a walking/murder simulator and then attach a story about the beauty and frailty of human life to it. I'm not sure how I'm supposed to get into that when I've just murdered about 500 faceless guys, who apparently are just trying to get by like everyone else. Oh the girl is the innocent one, I get it. Nope, you murder about 50 people with her too at some point. I like the gameplay, it's smooth and the AI is decent, but it gets old after doing the same old crap for the entire game. All you do slowly walk to an area, watch a cutscene, murder about 15 guys either via sneak kills or just flat out beating their skulls in, and then repeat.

    Yeah, graphics are good and the base gameplay is solid, but I'm sorry the story is so overrated and the game gets real boring fast. Not to mention the plank sections that are just annoying, preventing you from continuing the walking simulator portion of the game. Which just takes you to the next area to murder about 50 dudes. It deserves a decent score because of the production values and polished gameplay, which eventually just gets old. Oh and a bonus for an awesome online mode. The online mode is actually the true gem of this product. Sorry, but overall, way overrated. Online makes it a 7 instead of a 6.    … Expand

Unfortunately the Last of Us doesnt deliver this. It is extremely linear. You have no real choices to make. But have to do anything the way the game developers want you to do it. That said, its still one of the best linear RPG's of the last years. Altough the quality of gameplay varies during the game. For the greatest part the atmosphere is really impressive. The virtual world looks great. The graphics are very good and the sounds are incredible. Unfortunately there are also moments that the gameplay gets annoying. Espesially during a lot of action, the controls are not always optimal. And by the way: in some parts of the game throwing a bottle towards your enemies is much more effective than shooting with a gun. So the next time you encounter a bear or a tiger in your real life leave your gun in your bag and just throw a bottle at it and you will be wonderfully fine. (Sarcasm) So the game does have its flaws. But for the greatest part its still an impressive experience. However for me the linear story and some annoying moments dont make it worth a 95 score. I say its worth 80 on a 100 point scale.… Expand

    TLOU is a very good game at its core but stumbles over gameplay mechanics. The AI battles (be it human or infected) get repetitive fast. They almost ever require you to decoy-takedown-sneakpast. I understand the great ratings this game gets and they are well deserved (atmosphere, graphic, voice acting, story telling are among the best) but the game isn't flawless.

For me it still is, but I can't play this game more than an hour every session (still want to finish it).… Expand

    This game should be only be praised for its gorgeous graphics and absolutely mind-blowing depressing story. This was my first time playing the last of us so I can't really completely compare between the previous and the remastered one.

This was my first time playing the last of us so I can't really completely compare between the previous and the remastered one.

    First I will be talking about the story. It is mind-blowing campaign as it engages you in the aftermath of the zombie breakout(the most over used cliché) which forces the people into the law of the jungle which is "only the fittest will survive" who kill each other for food and ammunition. You will be able explore those kinds of people through a protagonist who is survivor who even kills people to survive. All of the characters in the story are flawless you cannot nitpick anything about them. Eventhough the characters want the same thing( to survive) there is always something different about them which the game explores in depth. The only thing I thought the story could improve on is multiple decisions or even multiple endings if they put more time in and more effort. Eventhough they put a lot effort into this game. The game can be interactive but quite limited

    Now the actual gameplay. The gameplay does suffer a few flaws. The cons is the listen mode which you can turn off but once used its impossible not to use it again. The listen mode is basically finding where your enemies are which completely ruin the tension on finding your enemies. And killing them them in stealth very easily.But makes the game a bit strategic though. There isn't anything unique about the enemies at all but the clickers in my opinion are awesome( which is the only unique enemy). The AI can be predictable as you trace their tracks. But when it comes to your companion (yes , you will have a companion) they will actually help you defeat your enemies properly which make the game more realistic. You will also often fail due to your death or your companion's death. So in exchange for their help you will often have to help them as well. Exploration in this beautiful environment will be awarded (note-its not an open world game) as you will be given ammunition and crafting components. I found it quite addictive doing this. The ammunition is limited which makes sense since its a survival horror and a range of guns to use. There is also a crafting system which allow you to make realistic items. You can unlock new abilities as well. You can also upgrade your guns however you cannot simply press the option menu to upgrade it. Instead you have to go to specific areas where you will be able to upgrade your guns etc. In my opinion I wish this game like Dishonored have gameplay freedom where you could choose how you wanted to play since this is story-driven game. There is combat and it looks great. Every time you try to hit it someone it is always unique

    Final verdict: Outstanding story and flawless characters but with a good gameplay with a few flaws which make it less satisfying. I would have given this game a 7/10 due to the unsatisfying gameplay but I could't ignore the engaging story at all thus lead to my decision of a 8/10    … Expand

    As a huge fan of the Uncharted series and other Naughty Dog games, I was pleased to find that the Last of Us is easily one of the greatest games of all time.

The story could easily rival some of Hollywood's greatest works and the game play, while not really creative or 'new,' is enticing and terrifying. The AI might not be perfect (especially the partner AI) and some of the melee combat seems forced and awkward. However, the overall package is amazing. The story may have a good amount of zombie cliches, but because of how the story is portrayed (through incredible voice acting and one of the best visually stunning games) is what makes the story is endearing. The ending may not feel complete, but in a way, the world that the game portrays is not complete. The ending is bittersweet and fits the tone of the game amazingly. All in all, The Last of Us is a beautiful game and if you have already played the game on the PS3, it is worth it to revisit the game on the PS4. Also, the DLC that comes with the game is equally amazing, and in some ways it surpasses the quality of the original.… Expand

    In this game you get involved with the characters and the story. It's a movie with a great gameplay (different to The Order 1886 which is just a movie je je). This is the future of games I believe.
    Ideal for casual users, because the duration is 8-12 hours which is ok. And the addiction the game produces is unique.

For once I didnt feel like some overpowered superhero that could kill hundreds of infected without breaking a sweat like most post-apocalyptic games. Instead, on the hardest difficulties, I had to plan my approaches, scavenge and craft my way through and pick my battles. Gameplay mechanics work well although some stealth sections can feel slightly repetitive but a great balance between these sections and action packed shoot-outs make them bearable. Multiplayer requires team based coordination and strategy that is refreshing from most 'lone wolf' all guns blazing style multiplayers that crowd the market. However, matches do tend to become one sided if someone decides to go it alone and ends up getting killed or if someone goes AFK.

    In conclusion, there is no doubt this game is a 'must have'. Those which have played this game before on PS3 wont find anything new or exciting, but if you're new to playstation or didnt buy the game for the PS3 now is the time to get it, you will not regret it.    … Expand

    Aesthetically it looks pretty great, especially the character models which are fantastic. It performs well enough at 60fps most of the time, although it takes a **** whenever you're near water for some reason, but on the whole it's fine. The voice work is top notch and really helps push the story, Ellie is pretty hilarious at times.

    Ignoring the wonderful single player experience the game also boasts a highly enjoyable 4v4 multiplayer mode, which is fully fleshed out with countless maps, weapons and fluff items. The loadout system is very much like CoD where you have a set amount of points to speed to create your own unique build. It's a very slow paced, tactical game mode where stealth is key, I was honestly surprised at how good it was, it's definitely not just tacked on for the sake of it.

    In short, if you own a PS4 you owe it to yourself to play this game as it's very special.    … Expand

    After seeing ale the 10/10 and game of the Year awards I was realli intrigued whats all the fuss about. So lets se what do we have here.
    1) Story - another zombie flick. If this story was presented as a movie it would recieve average scores in about 7/10. Maybe a bit more but nobody with brain wouldnt give it 10 out of 10. So lets look elsewhere for the game of the year factor.

    2) Gameplay - Nathan Drake is back! Wait, its not Nathan but he sure does look a lot like him, moves like him, shoots like him, fight like him. So in general it is him but in another setting and with different goals. The whole "uncharted" gameplay is not bad, but nothing new or special. We got stealth. This is NOT MGS, stealth is quite broken for me. I completed the game on hard and I was frustrated when enemies saw me when they werent supposed to. Whats funny they dont see my companions running like a fools and almost bumping into them. Very realistic. We also can craft things and upgrade weapons (which is quite ok) but we all saw that elsewhere and it was done better elsewhere. Whats worse, we got lots of fights. Figths that are not as fun as they should be. I was tired of seeing another horde of humans/infected attacking me again and again. At the end of the story I was wondering who killed more humans - plague or Joel... This was very anticlimatic for me. I liked the exploration part more than the fighting and the game would be better if Naughty Dog didnt throw so much enemies at us.
    So from me gameplay is solid 8/10 - quite good but glithed and not as fun as it could be - definitely not a game of the year gameplay.
    3) Visuals/Music - Graphics are nice, clean with quite a few good looking sceneries. Animation is also really good. But that damn corridors. We got Year 2015. You cant expect somebody to be amazed by graphics in AAA title where You move through damn corridors. How stupid can it get - You go into the wood and gues what? Youre in a corridor. The objective is to go to the bridge. On the way there are enemies. No, You cant go around them, BECAUSE YOURE IN A F***IN CORRIDOR!!! This is just dumb.
    But wait - this is the best game on PS3 according to critics and players. So... lets grab an axe and try to hack the table to pieces. Nothing. Lets break window with a brick. Nothing! But the axe itself is made from glass i guess because it gets broken after 4 slashes. Damn... Ok I guess I want to much (but again - game of the year...I could destroy almost everything in enviroment in Black on PS2... over 10 years ago...). Fair score for the graphics is 7+/10.

    As You can see this is NOT the best game I played and in my opinion all of You who gave this game easy 10/10 for touching story - You probably wouldnt do that if it was a movie, or the book. So unfortunatelly this show that the gaming industry in terms of storytelling is far behind other entertainment sources.
    And thats why the most important thing in games is gameplay. I hope I explained in details why the score this 8 out of 10 and why I rate simple games that base on excellent gameplay like geometry wars higher than most of current AAA titles.    … Expand

Characters will present hidden dialogs. Go into new places? Cue protagonist gaffs. This is 100% a masterpiece, from the music, to the artwork, to the story, to the silly pun joke book in Left Behind that nearly goes on forever. The single-player campaign is filled with lore and additional stories that can be read and learned alongside environment art. Combined with trophies and collectables, the game has a very, very long lifecycle. In addition, two years after the game's release Naughty Dog still makes improvements and tweaks to the gameplay to balance and refine it. The DLC has helped make sure the multiplayer servers will stay up for a long time with streams of revenue.

    My only gripe is that there isn't more to play and Left Behind is a little too short -- beatable in one day. Hopefully there will be a Last of Us 2, though I'd rather the title stay a standalone masterpiece before turning into a giant cow of a franchise to be milked until dry.    … Expand

    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.
