    Simply one of the greatest games of our generation. An absolute masterpiece from top to bottom. ND has created some of the greatest characters of all time. The gameplay is enthralling, the story is emotional, the music is incredible and the animation is top-notch. Everyone on this planet should experience this game.

    Highly amazing game. Not simply another zombie game. Theres story here and the gameplay and pacing are superb. That being said it does lose some points for me as I don't enjoy being told the lore of the game mainly from artifacts and the a.i can be pretty bad at some points in the game. Overall an 8/10 for me.

    No videogame is without flaws, and The Last of Us makes no exception. But what makes a 10? It's not the absence of flaws or faults; any piece of literature, narrative or so on - each in its own medium - is a 10 when it answers positively to the question: would the medium itself (videogame in this case) be poorer without this piece of media?

It's not the absence of flaws or faults; any piece of literature, narrative or so on - each in its own medium - is a 10 when it answers positively to the question: would the medium itself (videogame in this case) be poorer without this piece of media? In the case of The Last of Us, the answers is yes.
    Now, we are in 2020 and the game is considered by this year's perspective, but it would be better judged as a 2013 game (2014 for this Remastered, which really improves the graphics of the game and makes it look easily as a game from this generation). The Last of Us is a videogame that presents many flaws, especially in gameplay mechanics and in AI quality. Not to talk about some puzzles, which may appear repetitive at a point. But the videogame in its whole is just unique, and enhances the medium. I personally have a lot of fun playing the game, mechanics are interesting and - especially if played at high difficulty settings, such as survivor or grounded - it really challenges you in finding new ways to beat the levels. You may want to run away, sneak out or just clean the level by beating all the enemies, according to the specific situation in which you find yourself. And it's all up to you and your personal attitude as a player, to your inventive and your will to challenge yourself. So the game really gives the best when played at least at hard mode. As we've just said, the only flaws the game has is in the gameplay and in the level design; when it comes to the story, The Last of Us is just mesmerizing. Naughy Dog was able to create two of the most iconic characters ever in the industry over night: Joel and Ellie are so powerful in their development, their relationship, their attitude, that simply stand over most of any other character ever produced by any videogame - and they maybe go even a little further, elevating videogame and its narrative possibilities to places where no other medium can go. As a videogame player, is up to you to turn the camera, decide the frame you want to watch, how much time you want to spend rushing the area or wandering around, just to discover that particular line, to see what Ellie does, how she acts differently throughout the playthrough depending on the level of affection she has towards Joel. The story is told not just through cutscenes, but with gameplay as well, melting the two things in a unique and very peculiar way to feel affection for both Joel and Ellie.

    Now, this is not a review and the space is just too limited to discuss any aspect of the game, this is just a little taste of one of the best story told, not just by a videogame, with two of the most beautiful, faceted and deep characters you may ever find. This is just why a videogame, with all its flaws and faults, is a full 10 and beyond. The Last of Us is a cornerstone for narrative and storytelling, and its legacy will go on as long as narrative and storytelling will ever do.

    The Last of Us was a truly great game when it was first released, immersive and beautifully ruined environments to traverse, pulse-pounding survival horror gameplay, and a story that really showed the potential for what narrative in video games could achieve.

With the release of the remastered version, the visuals look even more beautiful and with the higher-frame-rate it made the somewhat clunky shooting much more playable. Whilst the crafting and environmental puzzle solving may be basic, the game tells a compelling story with great performances from its voice cast and leads the player through some iconic locations and set pieces. Few video games get you to care about its protagonists so much as The Last of Us gets you to care about Ellie and Joel. Expand

    A truly moving story.
    From the beginning through the ending Naughty Dog has been able to engage me into the story and to blow my mind every time I booted the game. They managed to make a unique and original story focused on a zombiesque pandemic, wich - for me - is usually repetitive and boring. The graphics are absolutely gorgeous for a 2013 game, the music and the sound design

    Giocai a questo titolo nel 2013 per ps3 e giocandoci per ps4 devo dire che è stato fatto un buon lavoro da parte di ND, 60fps fissi e un buon aliasing fanno di questo titolo un'ottimo gioco da giocare anche nel 2020.
    L'ho finito la settimana scorsa per la terza volta.

    This game was first one that I played on my PS4 and I definitely made a good choice. Good shooting, perfect storyline, but it have 2 major problems:
    -Localisation. I didn't test ALL languages, but russian translation is awful.
    -Stealth isn't that good (Enemies doesn't trigger by looking on your companions)

    Game is very overrated and doesn’t look that good for a remaster. It’s filled with cliches and it’s a pretty average zombie story. Gameplay is fun but it’s very glitchy and the puzzles consist of looking for a ladder. Would be rated higher if wasn’t so overhyped because it can be fun at times.



    Naughty dog knows nothing about guns.

    Amazing game, amazing story with great characters. But as a horror game, it doesn’t do it as well as I thought it would. However, all it’s pros outweigh its cons, and I see why a lot consider this as one of the greatest games of all time. Would give this a9.5 if i could.

    The relationship between Joel and Ellie makes this game worth it.

    Enemy AI and the stealth mechanics are clunky and feel dated. However, the gameplay is second to the storytelling and character development of Joel and Ellie.

    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.

    Visual improvements and three included DLCs don’t justify buying this game again, but if you haven’t played it on PS3 yet, you’re in for long hours of valuable entertainment. [Sept 2014, p.59]
