    Good story,awful gameplay

    It's not stealth-action it's interactive movie.If you want some real action and have fun choose easy mod this will really dilute the boring gameplay and you will be able to get up from your knees without crawling through the floor all game and i must say in middle and end of you walkthrough you have some intresting missions something like Uncharted it's not bad    Good story,awful gameplay

    The game itself is good, but there are too many bugs for a game of this magnitude.

Up to try any genre of games and sometimes I find something new that I didn't think I'd like. I own a PC (built by me), Xbox One X, Xbox Series X, PS3, PS4, PS5, and a Switch. I prefer Playstation due to their focus on narrative games. For scoring, I’ll be using the Gameinformer review scale and of coursed influenced by my personal opinions.

    (10)Outstanding. A truly elite title that is nearly perfect in every way. This score is given out rarely and indicates a game that cannot be missed.

    To me this game is a 10 solely on the story. You're invested in the main characters do to their building relationship through out with a game ending that will make you question you're own morals. What would you do for the ones you love or yourself, depending on how you look at it?    … Expand

    I loved Last of Us 1, but Last of Us 2 was very interesting to play and not in a positive way. I was seriously enjoying the story about Joel's death and Ellie trying to avenge his death, and Ellie's romance on the side. It could have been one of the best games ever.

I was seriously enjoying the story about Joel's death and Ellie trying to avenge his death, and Ellie's romance on the side. It could have been one of the best games ever.
    Unfortunately, towards the end, I was forced to play as Abby. I really liked Joel as a character, and when Abby killed him, I, of course, developed a serious dislike for Abby. Furthermore, Abby is just a pissed-off, unlikable character in general. Thus, I really didn't want to play as Abby and found myself just letting zombies kill me because I wanted to return to playing as Ellie, and it was more enjoyable to watch her die than to try to help her survive.
    I tried to play it out as Abby, hoping it would return to Ellie at any moment, but hours went by, and it still made me play as Abby until eventually I just said, "Screw it. I'm not enjoying this game at all, and I stopped playing altogether. I've played almost every rpg there is, and there is only one other game I have stopped playing halfway through. Thus, Last of Us 2 is one of the only games I rate as a 0 out of 10 since it was so unenjoyable that I didn't even finish it. The lesson here is NEVER FORCE THE PLAYER TO PLAY AS AN UNLIKABLE ANTAGONSIST, PLEASE.
    After, being so disappointed with Part 2, I don't recommend either of these games.    … Expand

    I'm a PC gamer. I haven't owned a console in about 5 years. I decided to buy a PS4 bundle with this game when it was on sale because my girlfriend really wanted LittleBigPlanet3. She hasn't gotten to play once in the last 10 days.

I haven't owned a console in about 5 years. I decided to buy a PS4 bundle with this game when it was on sale because my girlfriend really wanted LittleBigPlanet3. She hasn't gotten to play once in the last 10 days.

    I heard from a lot of people how excellent this game was, and it wasn't like I didn't believe them that it would be a good game, but I didn't anticipate it being just as good as it is. I found myself announcing aloud to one one in particular "Damn...This is incredible." about every 2 hours.

    The gameplay is fun; if I had to put a number on it I'd say maybe a 8/10. It's nothing that hasn't been done before to some extent. I feel like its a mixture between the Batman: Arkham and Resident Evil franchises, both excellent games in their own right so I don't make the comparison negatively. The real strength of this game is the character development, story line and world design. All of which are masterful. I've been playing video games for a long time now, and I think the last time I felt so emotionally invested in my characters and their stories was back in 1997 when Final Fantasy 7 dropped. It's been 17 years since I've played something that made me actually feel a real, humanistic connection to the characters.

    I could go on for another 1500 words about why its so great but honestly, if you haven't played this game and you enjoy video games, or even if you don't enjoy them, you need to play this. To me, it almost redefines what a video game can be, and what we can now come to expect or even demand of this medium of art. Simply outstanding. The best game I've EVER played? Maybe not. But it's top 5-10 easily, and was worth the PS4 price of admission alone just to experience it.

    I don't think my girlfriend will be playing her copy of LittleBigPlanet3 any time in the next month or so...    … Expand

    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

    By now, everyone has heard why this game is great... and it is a very solid game. However, at a full $60, the remastered version is not worth the price (unless you have not played it of course). If this was $40 I'd give it a 9.

    I truthfully couldn't figure out why this game has such high scores. And the only reason I can find is that people must have loved the story. It's a good game. Don't get me wrong. But what makes this game deserve a 7/10? Well for starters, the item base is very limited. Yes I understand it is a survival game, but more options would be nice. Also there aren't many enemy types.

    Probably one of the most over rated games of all time. It's got good voice acting, but the storlyline was fairly mediocre. Visually it's nice, but the controls are clunky sometimes.

    Dialog writing is good, but the story is very cringe and the ending so predictable I actually accidentaly spoiled my wife by guessing what it would be. Infiltration gameplay is ok but the situations and enemies are very repetitive. Except for the graphics, I don't see where this game got its reputation.

Even though the graphics is great, I can wait what's in store for the sequel. I am sure the graphics will be EVEN better. The game does has some flaw though such as awkward movement of the character. Sometimes they don't seem to move or run smoothly. The graphics in some areas are amazing and in others just so-so. The download content Left Behind has better overall graphics and overall smooth. The game play is what set this game apart with the melee killing of the zombies so good that you want to keep punching. The gores and blood is stunningly details. This game deserved a 9.5 just because I feel that some areas, the character move awkward and the graphics were not up to par. I am sure the sequel will be 2x better. Can't wait.… Expand

    Great game! It does give you a sense that the main characters are in survival mode-infected, hunters looking for survivors, limited ammo and resources for crafting, and most especially a suspenseful storyline. The detailed environment adds to it with images that leave you feeling a tiny sense of frustration/shock/horror. Haven't beaten it yet but as you can see or read, it's impressed me.

    Just something was missing for me in this game. Solid voice acting doesn't equal good video game. World felt boring. Loot/Craft systems that were obvious copy+paste from Dead Island didn't help either. One hit kill enemies were very annoying and in the end i simply didn't care at all what happens. Very overrated and mediocre.

    Having not played The Last of Us on PS3, I had uber high expectations about this game, now that it was on PS4. The game has not disappointed me. The story is great, the graphics are pretty good, the multiplayer is very fun and quite original, and the DLCs are good as well. It was a worthy purchase and this game is fantastic and should be played by anyone with a PS4.

    Played this game at a friends after having owned the PS3 version. While the graphics are updated over the PS3 version, it's still the same "interactive movie". I found the game to be boring on the PS3 and don't see where this is any better. If all you care about is graphics, then you're good. However, if you want a game that's fun to play, this wasn't it for me.

    Honestly, it was quite better than the PS3 version, but despite the Super graphics, i was expecting a new single-player content than the other ones inside disc. The graphics was looking more awesome, the combat effect was more brutal (which i love it), and the story was a challenging journey, between Ellie, Joel, & Riley. Sony games, is now more Hardcore then before.

    This was very good, in fact I did not know how bad the current PS4 offering is until I played this. The fact that this is worth playing in the post-zombie craze era shows how good it is. I subtracted 1 point because this is a remaster that has been sold at the price of a new AAA game. Sadly that is all that you get on the PS4 now: remasters and sequels.

    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.
