    The best experience of my life with videogames, this time with better graphics than the first version (For PS3), The Last of Us Remastered comes with the DLC - Left Behind, and is a perfect game, more perfect than your predecessor.

Crafting a healthpack while a clicker is looking for you adds alot of tension in the game. Every enemy in the game feels like a threat and you can't run and gun very easily. You have to take them down one by one and every bullet counts. You craft a shiv (knife) to take down a clicker and you have to find the materials for that. Joel and Ellie are very well written characters. They are very raw and real characters. They aren't written to get you to like them, they are written for how the writers feel they truly should be, given the circumstances.
    The DLC Left Behind is very good. DO NOT PLAY IT BEFORE YOU BEAT THE GAME.
    If you wan't a dark,raw, gore filled game with an amazing story that won't shy away with messing with your emotions, then this game is for you.    … Expand

    This is probably in my top five games of all time. The original was great looking but this one is improved with the frame rate increase, draw distance, textures and character models.

As a return customer, I purchased it to experience the story again in the hardest difficulty, but also purchased it for the multiplayer. It is a ton of fun, and not a ton of my friends had it or still play it on PS3. Getting a crew together and working together in the multi is an amazing time. To fans of the original wanting to go through it again and wanting a renewed online community this is great. Photo mode is also a super cool add on that I will be utilizing for sure… Expand

While the visual upgrade is not that huge, since it was already looking fantastic, the higher frame rate changes the experience for the better, especially during fighting. The reason I think it is worth getting this game again is because it has high replayability beyond the story itself (e.g. multiplayer) and if you have a PS4, you want this title in your game library. If you never played it before, it's a must-have anyways.… Expand

    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.    … Expand

    Naughty Dog revamps this game to the fullest. Between the heartfelt story, competitive online play and challenging trophies there is something for everyone to get hooked on this beautiful game. I have no regrets buying this game for both the PS3 and PS4. Best game I've played in an extremely long time.

    This game is a simple masterpiece story,graphics,character developing, acting, gameplay, Multiplayer...everything is superb and now you can enjoy it in 1080p/60fps!!!
    The pricing which everyone is nagging about is completely fine if you imagine a copy of the PS3 version of the game costs around 35 bucks + 15 bucks (left behind) = 50 bucks...now the PS4 version costs exactly the same...50 bucks...

    What can be said about The Last Of Us that can't be said about the The Last Of Us in 60FPS/1080p?

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

    I don't feel the need to rehash everything that has already been said about this game. It was easily in the top 3, probably the best game, for the last gen consoles and it is easily one of the best experiences I've ever had in gaming. But what about the remastered version.

Is it worth buying again for those who've already done everything there is to do on the PS3 version? I'd say yes with a few caveats.
    The biggest thing you'll notice first is the graphics. There is a very clear upgrade in the visuals, even if it doesn't exactly stand up to a game like inFamous. It comes close but you can tell this was a game that was designed for the last gen consoles. I've heard that it looks like a game that's on Ultra high settings on the PC and I think that's a very good description of it. Plus they've tweaked the controls a bit to help with some of the clunkyness of the original game. I really like the big button in the middle of the controller that opens your inventory screen and it's easier to use than the select button on the old game.
    There are a few things that I don't like about this version though and it starts with the price. 50 bucks for this game is way too high. 40 seems reasonable but 50 is really high for a game that's been out for awhile and has been down to 20 bucks in the last week on the old consoles. Plus there have been a number of glitches that occurred in my game. Lots of stiff movements, running through walls, cutscenes not properly loading. It's only happened in the first hour of my playthrough so far but there's been enough of it to cause me an issue. Fortunately nothing has happened during a fight yet so things are not as bad.
    The fact of the matter is though that this game is still easily one of the best gaming experiences ever to be released and you're doing yourself an injustice not playing it at least once. For people like myself who have already beaten the main game and DLC on the PS3, there is still alot of playability here mostly for the fact that there's nothing else to really get for the system for awhile. If you're looking for something you know will be excellent and to relive one of the best games in recent memory, then you have to pick this game up. Even with the fairly steep price tag, it's still worth it.    … Expand

    This is a near perfect game. Still as awesome as it was on PS3 but with much improved graphics and 60fps. It has all the things that were right with the original and the DLC. Granted, Left Behind is O.K. At $50 it is still a value. My only real complaint is that one of the PS4's best games is a remake of one from last generation.

    Higher frame rate and resolution is great like everyone says. They also got rid of the grain filter and replaced it with genuine texture. The motion blur caused by moving the camera around is also gone. Same game but cleaner and smoother. Any hardcore gamer should be visually literate or at the very least competent enough to appreciate this remake as the work of art tha it is.

This game is a perfect 10 anyway you slice it, from story to gameplay, etc. Anyone who rated this game lower than a 10 is just trying to be different or get attention that they aren't getting in their personal life.

    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.
